Carl Huron County Federation of Ag- riculture Directors met in the Ag- ricultural Office Board Rooms Ap- ril 15, with president Winston Shapton presiding. The attendan- ce was particularly good, which is appreciated. Envoy Newman of the Salvation Army spoke briefly on the work of the Army in the County. He expressed the highest appreciation for the canvass undertaken by the township Federations of Agricul- ture last year. I -Ie pointed out that all moneys collected by can- vasses conducted by organizations must be spent on welfare work only. Two thirds, at least must be spent in the area in which it is collected. It was felt that as a County the federation couldn't conduct such a canvass but it was recom- mended that the townships take on this job. Perhaps the ladies committee would be able to do the canvassing. In discussing the Focus on the Farm program the meeting agreed to purchase four shares, the same as last year. It was suggested that a meeting of the share holders be Hemingway) arranged as they might be of as- sistance in gathering local mater- ial for the program.

K-336 V.L. Becker & Sons "INTERNATIONAL HARVESTER DEALER" Phone 60W --- Dashwood winter or restricted to the chill allure of ice fishing. In Ontario, the common white sucker (Catostomus commerson:- nii) occurs in almost all lakes and rivers from the Great Lakes to Hudson Bay. In Northern Canada it is distributed from the Macken- zie River, Hudson Bay and Lab- rador to the Maritime Provinces and, in the United States, south- ward on both sides of the Appal- achians to Georgia, Arkansas and Colorado. Angling for suckers with light tackle is an interesting pastime. The gear necessary is simple, con- sisting of pole, line, light leader, split shot sinker, and a single hook, No. 6 or No. 8. A variety of bait may be used such as grubs, worms and night crawlers. Con- siderable recreational interest in legalized disp-netting is evident during the spring run of suckers. In Ontario, licensed commercial fishermen and anglers are encour- aged to harvest the crop of suck- ers. This is desirable because of the tendency of suckers to over- populate areas where predators are lacking, and because of the habit of the sucker to compete with game fish for food items of prim- ary importance for growth. There is no restriction on the number and size of suckers that may be taken by licensed commer- cial fishermen or by anglers. Dur- ing the months of March, April and May, between the hours of sunrise and sunset, a resident may take suckers for personal use by means of a dip net six feet wide, except in Algonquin Park, Kaw- artha Lakes and certain other specified areas. And, during the months of April and May, between the hours of..sunrise and sunset, a resident may take suckers for per- sonal use by means of a spear, ex- cept in Algonquin Park, Kawar- tha Lakes, Lake Simcoe and cer- tain ertain other specified areas. Average rate of growth is as fol- lows: One year, four inches; two years, seven inches; three years, ten inches; four years, 13 inches; five years, 15 inches; eight years 19 inches. Only occasional speci- mens exceed 18 inches and the av- erage weight attained is one to two pounds.
