WATERFRONT WHIFFS Spring Salmon Run Increases Most of Halibut Boats Out Again Prominent Canncrymen Visit District A considerable increase during the past week in the production of the spring salmon trailers has resulted in a falling off of prices, which had remained steady for several weeks at 12c and 4c, to 10c and 2c. A good run has developed at Stephens Island and the most of the fish lan ded is coming from there although thei'e is also some from other trolling areas.

Dr. Bedford's friends will regret to hear of his loss. Halibut Landings Owing to the recent Uc-up of boats because of low price conditions, halibut landings at the port of Prince Rupert for the week ending yesterday were light at a total of 350,800 pounds of which 54,300 pounds was brought In by Canadian vessels and 296,500 pounds by Am erican. This brought the season's landings at the port up to 1,685,750 pounds as at April 8, this figure including 789,550 pounds of Cana dlan and 896,200 pounds of Ameri can fish. Prices for the week averaged fair ly well. The high bid of the week for Canadian fish was 8.5c and 3c received by the Signal for 7.000 pounds while the low was 5.5c and 45c paid the Alice May and Teddy for catches of 1600 and 700 pounds respectively. For American, fish the high price was lOc'and 5c paid the Lltuya for 7,000 pounds and the low 5.9c and 3c received by the Pioneer for 18,000 pounds. A new kind of "war" is going on In Prince Rupert It Is nothing lejss than a "manure war," imagine that! It Is not necessarily a "water front" subject, although some of the gardening boys like Jim Lee and Mil Nlckersoq, arc very Interested, so we are going to tell about it un der the heading of'whllfs" and ask you If that Is not appropriate. The price has dropped during the..pasl lew aays from somewhere around the four dollar mark to $2 per yard at which they were advertising this fragrant "bovine by-product this week. And the merry war was still waging while the battle and the manure smoked and steamed. Some of the Scotchmen were heard to predict with their national can-nlneas that, if they waited long en ough, before ordering, the manure nectlon with the Pacific Coast hall-.merchants might - be prepared to pay for the privilege of delivering lM:BmiM:KalM If not spreading their sweet, yet very necessary, product. It looks j iiKc we win ai icasi oc aoie u nave a pile of manure this spring even If j we cannot get around to the garden I part of it. One good thing about it, the manure, like the Christmas or the' wedding' fc'alke, iJrapruVcs with age. More power to George Casey and Casey Vink. Undertaker Saves Doctor They arc saying that Frank the undertaker, saved Lew the doctor, from Old Man one day this week although neither the modest Frank or Oliver Morris of the Pacific Sea Foods Co. at Hoquiam, Wash., arrived at Massett recently to take over the management of the Nootka Packing Co.'s cannery (formerly Langara cannery). He expects to remain at Massett through the spring and summer. Since the fishing season at Prince Rupert closed on November 15 last. total of 266 cars of frozen fish have been billed from this port to eastern cities. Aggregate shipments of frozen fish from western Canada since that date, Including fish from the prolific lakes of the three prairie provinces, are 531 cars. Edible crabs unquesUonably suf fer somewhat in popularity with some persons through the tradition which characterizes them as scavengers. That this reputation Is entirely undeserved Is stated by Donald C. G. McKay In a Progress Re port of the Pacific Experimental Station. Mr. MacKay has been con ducting a study of the Pacific Coast crab and makes the statement that the food of the crab Is mainly fresh In character. He has found that! small fish, shrimp, clams and other crabs form the principal items of the crab's menu. He points out that this is in distinct contrast with the case of the lobster and many other large crustaceans, the crab evidently having suffered in reputation be cause of the tendencies of Its less particular cousins. The investigator reports having watched live crabs in an aquarium show extraordinary dexterity in catching live fish. They have also been observed cru.htn(j through the shells of small oysters and razor clams, those latter shellfish appearing to be practically the exclusive diet of crabs in waters where the razor clams are to be found.
