Aug. 12 The price of wheat at the Vancouver today was 95c. a bushel. there will be a veritable stampede. and later It is all too probable that very few people will find It desirable to boat In that vicinity. It will be even more odoriferous than the reduction' plant. It would be as well if children would remember, and. their parents might tell them, that it Is illegal to gaff or spear any fish in the stream. In the pool near the targets there were probably 100 fish showing signs that they had been gaffed or speared. This Is a deliberate waste and wanton cruelty. Now that this fact has been noticed the fishery officers will be on the watch and Offenders will be dealt with severely as the law provides for a heavy fine on conviction. V.A.C.
