HEARING ON REPEAL OF CLoSE-TIME
AT MAT|NICUS AND CRIEhAvEN

the traps are taken out. around these
islands they are tolled 10 the pots of the
visitors who wait in the offing. IT is a
debatable question whether these islands
do not actually lose fish during the
months of August and September because
of this outside distribution of bait. A
majority Of the men engaged in this in
dustry have petitioned for the repeal OF
this law Many of them are aged and
unable TO loaf during the two months
mentioned The end Of close time finds
many OF them Invested of their last dollar
and sadly in debt. The remonstrants are,
in most instances. men financially able
TO engage in SEEMING operations during
the lobster close time. wn,cn brings in
large returns. 1t is urged by the oppo-
sition that these two months enable them
10 repair and make gear. etc. Invariably
no repairs or new gear is made until two
weeks before the close time expires FIsn-
~ OF spare time is available to the lob
srer fisherman at all times; in fact he is
constantly replacing gear lost and de-
stroyed and might lose all his traps the
first day out, in which event he would
require another close time to make re-
pairs. 1t is obvious that this close time
in August and September fails to ac-
complish what its authors had hoped for,
while working with the limited facts then
available concerning the habits of the
species If it has fulfilled their expecta-
lions why has il not been generally
enacted: II it has failed OF any good
purpose. why should Matinicus and Gre
haven be longer saddled with its obsolete
ideas?

1t is very seldom that crew OF river
drivers is seen at work on the Kennebec
in February. but the rise of water in the
river and the movement OF the ice
brought about such conditions to pass
Friday. \ long section OF the Hallowell
boom which had been stored for the
winter at the Mile Rock, TO which it was
fastened by chain. was struck by a
big sheet of ice which broke the fasten-
ings of the boom and allowed it 10 swing
down river. so that Warren Sawyer OF
Hallowell, who had charge of the boom,
had to get his crew together and put
in some lively work in securing the rum
away. The boom was finally made fast
? for the night and will probably be per-
manently secured today. The part which
got away was the section which during
the summertime stretches from Hallowell
as far up river as the Augusta State

0. A. c. MUST NOT
FARM PRINTING OUT
TO PRIVATE PLANTS
Printing Board Orders Sur
plus Work Turned Over to
State Printing Plant

Hereafter when the Oregon agricul-
turaI college has more printing than
can be performed at the college plant
it must be sent to the state printing
plant instead of being farmed out to
the different newspapers and private
printing plants in the valley, as has
been the custom in the past, according
to an order made by the state printing
board at the regular monthly meeting
Saturday morning. In the event the
state printing plant cannot handle the
job the college may contract the work
out but the state plant must be given
the refusal of the work before this can
be done.
The question came up when Secretary
Plimpton of the board produced bills
aggregating $1,000 for "farmed out"
printing performed for the o. A. c.,
which had been presented to him for
his o. r., and asked the board if he
was required to approve printing bills
of this character when the work could
have been performed at the state
printing plant. The board informed
him that he could not apd furthermore
made an order to instruct the college
management that, in future all printing
work that cannot be taken care of at
the college plant should be sent in to
the state plant.
al think that the college ought to do
all its printing at its own plant when
it can be handled there" said Secre-
tary of State 0lcott, "and all surplus
printing should be done at the state
plant, but not farmed out to private
plants for political purposes. " Treas
nrer Kay agreed with Secretary Olcott
and an order was made to that effect.
Of the bills aggregating $1,000 for
printing done away from the college
plant was one from the Statesman
Publishing company, and the balance
was done by plants in Albany and in
Portland, Governor Withycombe had
just excused himself from the meeting
before the matter was presented
