What
is
lu
be
the
future
of
Porcher
Island?
People
.who
go
there
on
hunting
trips
see
Hie
deserted
fiomes,lhe
overgrown
gardens,
the
bariH
falling
in
and
they
get
the
idea
that
the
laud
is
useless,
thai
it
is
impossible
to
farm
and
make
a
living
there.
It
must

conversion!
of
Hie
muskeg
into
arable
or

land.
In
spile
oT
that,
however,
the
attractions
m
the
islands
surrounding
Prince
llti-j
peri
are
such
thai
in
time
they
will
nil
be
occupied
by
prosperous
farmers
who
will
engage
in
mixed
farming
operation
and
dravvj
a
good
deal
of
their
grain
feed-supply
from
the-
local
elevators.
Just
at
present
there
are
opportunities
for
lhne
wishing
to
raise
cattle.
The
grazing
grounds
are
large
and
with
a
little
feeding
and
sheller
in
the
winloi
the
callle
do
well.
The
object
lesson
of
the
horses
senl
there
lo
winter
last
year
and
which
did
well
with
practically
no
cot
is
one
that
should
encourage
others
to
go
inlo
raising
of
slock
there.
Christmas
is
drawing
very
near
and
Prince

peoph?
are
prejiaruig
to

it

time
lionnreo
manner.
Also
they
are
showing
their
hospitality
byinviling
friends
who
have
not
anyw
here
else
to
go.
Xlie
difficulty
is
that
many
people
may
not
be
known
nnd
consequently
may
not
get
invitations.
To
search
these
out
and
see
that
they
have
a
good
time
is
the
work
of
someone
and
ij
should
not
be
neglected.
Let
Christmas
lie
