Fishing Season over.

The fishing season of 1911 is about over,
and may be set down as being success
full one.
There were more shad caught here than
for many years and the prices were fairly
good, taking the season as whole.
The run of herring, which of course
proved the principal source of profit Of
our large seines and floats, was some
what irregular, and came in punches"
making it difficult to handle them at
times, but, without knowing the amount
put up by the several packers, believe
they will measure well up to those of
previous years.
All the floats and shores have ..cut OUT
our gillers, will of course. continue fishing
for shad for several weeks longer. as is
usually done.
A matter worthy of mention. is that the
pack of herring roe has grown to be quite
a successful adjunct to the fishing busi-
ness, and Mr.. Michael, we are advised,
has packed 1000 cases of this delicious
article and for which there is constantly
increasing demand in the large cities

To Stop Auto Speeding.

Recent accidents, due to reckless speed
ing of automobile drivers, has aroused
the authorities to make determined
effort to break up the practice. Governor
Crothers has urged all sheriffs, constables
and other officials in the counties vested
with authority to make arrests, to take
into custody all chauffeurs and drivers of
automobiles and other vehicles who exceed
the speed limits. Jail sentences are urged
in preference to fines as having a more
salutary effect on those reckless drivers
who disregard the speed laws.

illegal Fishing At McCalI's.

tits reported that several parties are
fishing with dip nets from the rocks direct
ly below the big Mccall Ferry dams despite
the fact that the law prohibits, fish being
taken within iooft of the structure, under
penalty of $50 for each fish taken. Those
in position to know assert that not a
shad has found its way up the fishway
provided on the Lancaster side Of the dam.
1t is believed that in a few years instinct
will teach the fish that the river is barred
to them as spawing ground and that
thereafter shad fishing will be at an end
both above and below McCall's Ferry.
