Fishing in Nova Scotia.


To THE EDITOR OF THE JOURNAL: 1t
has recently been my good fortune to
visit Nova Scotia on a brief outing. A
party of six Haverhill men, representing
the fire department, grocery business, shoe
manufacturing and the ministry, left Bos-
ton for Yarmouth May 31st. The iron
steamship Yarmouth is first class boat
and the service IS unsurpassed. | notice
that our government has talked OF buying
her. At Yarmouth we noted the narrow
haIbor entrance and winding channel,
which. as at Belfast, leaves one half the
harbor a desola-e fiat at low water. We
visited fish curing establishment where
fish are packed for shipment to the West
Indies, South America and Europe. The
city has some fine houses with attractive
gardens and lawns, and especially notice
able are the hedges of buckthorn which
are trimmed in many odd shapes.
From Yarmouth we went by the Do
minion railway to Brazil lake, a small
station twelve miles out. There we took
teams to Carleton, a village six miles in
miles into the forest to the head of a
water course Of lakes and streams. Here
we took the boats and came down tor
tuous course of twenty five miles to Garlic
ton. Our route lay through the forest
where we saw traces Of bear and moose.
Strange 70 say there are no deer in Nova
Scotia. It is presumably due to lack Of
suitable food. The government has i'm
ported a few deer and is making an at
tempt to stock the country.
The trout fishing, for which we came,
was excellent. The fish would bite fly
about half the time. They did not run
very large, but many one and one-half
pound fish We're caught. Our largest one
weighed three pounds and measured
twenty inches in length. We caught no
fish in the lakes, but in the swift water l
have never seen better sport. Our guides
were very genial and competent men, and
50 strong friendship did we form with
them that they came from Carleton to
Yarmouth with us in their teams, dis
tance Of % miles.
The whole civilization of the Province
is plainly behind that Of the United States.
We noted the old fashioned cup and
down. saw mill and compared it in our
minds with the new mill at Ashland, Me. =,
which we visited recently, and which
turns out from its double band saws so
car loads of lumber per week.
We saw single OK teams, and noted a
woman with her bag of grain and numer-
GUS bundles pacidly urging her OK home
ward from the market
The emigration of young people from
the Province to the States is large Garlic
ton is a small town of probably less than
1000 population, yet there are IS per-
sons from that town in the single city of
Haverhill. 1t was during our absence in
the woods that Lieut. Hobson and his
comrades sunk the Merrimac, and we came
out to find the whole world talking about
it. FRANK A. GILMORE.

The Raspberry Pickers.

1t was in the beginning of day of
fainting heat, and the overseer Tweedy,
says Mary Tracy Earle in the August At
lantic, had made the rounds of the rasp-
berry field with water bucket and dip
per. He passed over little rise of ground
and found himself near a girl who had
fairly buried her head in the waving
branches of a tall raspberry bush, and was
searching for the great, red, perfect ber-
ries which grow beneath the leaves.
"Fine warm day. he said, setting
down the bucket and taking off his hat to
wipe his forehead The girl did not seem
to hear, 50 he stood still a moment, look
ing at her Her skirt was soaked to the
waist with the heavy dew which still
shimmered on the leaves and berries, her
sleeves were wet to the shoulders and
chung about her strong round arms, and
even the rutf1e of her sunbonnet was limp
from brushing against the vines. 1t was
very early still in spite Of the heat. The
sun was low in the east, and its light fell
in an almost level flood of gold across the
tops of the vines, which were all staked
and trained high, SO that the field looked
like vineyard. Far away toward the
horizon, the morning shadows were still
lurking between the wild blue hills. 1t

The course of the new adm;nistra-

being highly commended by men Of
all parties and all sections. Secretary
Wilson's latest report on this subject
shows that the experiments of last

he has reason to expect that the beet
sugar production of the United States
in 1898 will be double that of 1897,
and that this will shortly become one
of the we'll recognized and successful

of lumber in the case of war with

fact that the shipments of lumber
from the South in coastwise vessels
will be interrupted, AMI if carried by
rail, the prices necessarily increased.
