Fishing Improves Fishing.

\ lake properly fiShcd will produce
nifty per cent more fish than ii it is not
iiShcd at all, is the statement made b.,
y. ;. Cornell in the Canadian Conscrva-
tion Report for 1916, and he saws:
" am going to prove it. ] have been
a lumbcrman and a farmer. / am now
fisherman, and, when ] want to illus
trate my point, ] use one or other of
those callings. Suppose YOU had 100
acres of land, and you wanted to raise
all the cattle that it was possible to
produce on that 100 acres. Would YOU
keep the bullocks until they were four
teen years old, or would it not be good
business, whenever one of these bulloeks
was mature, to turn him off? viii that
not apply to fish? The lake will pro-
duce certain amount Of fish food, lust
as the loo acres of land will produce
certain amount of beef food. Is if
not an economic fact that, when fish are
mature, they had better he taken away
and the rest of the food left for the
young fish, just as it would be left on
the farm for the calves and the growing
stock? That principle applies doubIv to
fish, because there is a class of fish We
call pirates They not only eat the
food Of the smaller fish but they eat
the smaller fish as well.--All Outdoors

TURK Is CHIVAlROUS ENEMY
Much-Maligned Race Shows High
Sense of Honor in Its Manner
of Conducting Warfare.

When the Red Cross dressing sta
tons at Suvla bay We're shelled by the
Turks, writes Norman Wilkinson in
his account of the Gahipoli campaign,
it was owing to British carelessneSs
in landing stores and ammunition near
the stations.
1t was not deliberate act, for no
nation could possibly have conducted
warfare in a more abovc-board man
ner than the Turks The fact was a
surprise to me, although naval officers
generally have long regarded the Turk
as the gentleman of the eastern Medi-
terranean. That is further borne out
by the Turks refusal to use poisonous
gas when attacking
On the afternoon OF the landing the
Turks sent in to say that they would
respect the Red Cross stations if no
stores were landed in the vicinity. At
q later date The Turkish Headquarters
sent a hello message to tho effect that
they had seen tows of boats commune
eating between warShips and the
dressing stations. That they naturally
resented, and said that if it did not
cease they should feel compelled TO
open fire.
In another case a surgeon told me
that the enemy had actually sent TO
apologize to him for the accidental
shooting of one of his stretcher bear
srs. All this is only what one would
expect from a chivalrous enemy, but
the action of the Turk shows that this
much-maligned race retains a sense OF
honor that is more sensitive than that

If the allies have done nothing else
at Saloniki, they have at least enabled
every one to know the right time.
Hitherto one railway worked to Vi

and there was. also Turkish time other
than the Constantinoplc variety. which
differed from all the others in being
based on the course of the moon.

ALUMINIUM IN AIRCRAFT.
The Visibility Of Lighted Match at
Night-A Two-Tail Airplane.

Until recently the use of aluminium
and its alloys in aircraft was, con
sidering its apparent possibilities,
somewhat limited, owing partially to
prejudice, based on certain unfavorable
characteristics of pure aluminium itself,
and partially due to the fact that there
were few aluminium alloys that did not
present defects. Now, however, alumni
mum is finding more favor with design
erS, and there are at present on the
market several aluminium alloys that
have given excellent results under va
rving conditions. One such alloy is be
ing produced in England in thirty diff
ferent grades, all of the same compost
ton, to meet various requirements. A
tensile strength of seventeen tons is
obtainable. whilst its electrical conduc-
tivity is fftv-nine. After exhaustive
comparative tests with various alumni
mum alloys, one aero engine constructor
finally adopted this alloy for the pis.
tons with most satisfactory results in
practice. Among the advantages claimed
for this metal are its durability and
immunity from the harmful action up
on it by the atmosphere, and by salt
water. Proof that sea water has nc
harmful effect ON it was demonstrated
by towing a piece of metal behind q
boat from New Zealand to England
without any sign of action resulting.

 Several days ago the committee on the proposed Valley creek canal of the Bessemer Board of Trade decided to launch a plan to raise money to de- fray the expenses of employing an eX- pert to gather the data in regard to tonnage of the district.
