' New project Development of a subdivision on the west side of Porpoise Bay just beyond the Sechelt boundary was discussed with Sechelt's council at last Wednesday night's meeting by Ted Osborne, Joseph Saxelby and Garry Miller, representing the Crownlihe Properties including three other Vancouverites. Council decided it could not become involved in the proposition which calls for $20,000 to $25,000 homes, and a possible boat shelter as it was outside their jurisdiction. The Grownline company representatives said the land, obtained from Dr. Walter Burtnick would be developed this summer. JTheir reason for appearing before council was to obtain information but council informed them they should see the highways department, Regional board and health department for the information they seek. Complaints reached Gibsons . council at its meeting Tuesday night about the. effects of bush spraying getting into the village water system. ��� It was reported that B.C. Hydro spraying was done too close to water courses which were feeding into the village; reservoir. Acting Mayor Peterson was of the opinion that what would kill big trees was not a good thing to have in our water system. However, he added, B.C. Hydro officials have said that the chemicals used would not harm humans. Therfollowing letter was written by Gordon Shrum,! of the B.C;. Hydro and Power Authority in reply to one written to him and a copy of which was published:in'"' the* Coast' News June 25 from J. Hind-Smith: Dear Mr. J. Hind-Smith: The British Columbia Hydro & Power Authority uses herbicides to control unsafe and undesirable growth on its rights- of-way. We are by no 'means unique in this control program. Industries, farmers and Governments at all levels carry out similar programs, based on public demand, economics and need. The products used by the authority are the same as used by the home gardener and are available at any garden centre. (Continued on Page 8) Gable vision assured The Canadian Radio-Television commission has granted licences to Northwest: Communications Ltd. to operate Cable TV systems at Gibsons and Sechelt. '. Officials of Coast Cable Vision, a subsidiary of Northwest Communications Ltd. have expressed satisfaction and gratitude at the news that the last major hurdle prior to an actual start on both Cable TV systems has now been cleared and work should sobn be under way. 7 Coast Cable Vision has stated that both the chief forester and the department of lands have been most co-operative during a very involved and drawn-out period of searching, testing and negotiating ior- antenna- -. sites and rights-of-way. ' -"��������������� '���������-'���-''- The site of the Gibsons TV receiving station lies approximately one mile south of Mt. Elphinstone at an elevation of 2500 feet. A heavy trunk cable will be run through a rough, logged-off area extending over a distance of two miles down the mountain side to connect with an existing road. Here again, very high gain antenna arrays will be used to pick up the distant stations. Extra heavy elements will be required on antennas and all towers will be double-guyed to withstand anticipated heavy icing and wind loading. Equipment buildings will be erected near the base of each mountain to . house sensitive electronic gear. It is here that signals will be fully. processed,, filtered and, where necessary, converted to a useable frequency for reproduction on TV sets connected to the Cable system. While some minor legalities remain to be ironed out, a spokesman for the Cable'Vision, company- expects these matters to be speedily resolved. The Sechelt receiving station will be located several miles north of The Village of Sechelt in dense forest, at an elevation of close to 1500 feet. Access is 7 by way. ofL a, rough,, bpulderr strewn trail, some of which has been obviously washed out and heavily eroded, during recent years, v. Special arrays of high-gain antennas are to be installed at varying heights depending upon channel frequency and signal availability. Initially it is planned to supply channels 2, 4, 5, 6, 7, 8, and 12 on both Gibsons and Sechelt systems. Other channels may be added later. A number of F.M. stereo stations will be carried on both Cable systems. It is planned to add background music on a TV channel, later. Committee to Hold it, Buster! keep watch There will be supervisors in Dougal Park from 10 a.m. to 12 and from 1 p.m. to 3 p.m. Mondays through ��� Fridays for the summer months. This is sponsored by-; the Gibsons Kinettes with help from other organizations. SOCCER SCHOOL Gibsons Athletic Association has organized a Summer soccer school, starting Thursday, July 10, and running every Tuesday and Thursday, at 6:30 p.m. behind Elphinstone Secondary School. Everyone interested in any way in the game of soccer is invited to attend. Soames Point property owners' private meeting at the home of Mr. and Mrs. Don Hoops on the morning of July 2, discussed the desirability and urgency of zoning the area for single family residences. Hon. Isabel P. Dawson,. MLA for the constituency and Sunshine Coast Regional Board directors, Frank West and Cliff Gilker were present and each provided the meeting /with information necessary to provide answers for the numerous questions raised. Their presence enabled the meeting to proceed with dispatch and, while all points were covered, and a pleasant atmosphere existed, much was learned by the assemblage of 30 concerning problems of zoning. Don Hoops and Harry Harris were appointed by the meeting to : maintain communication with the Regional Board planning committee through Mr. David Fyles, appointee for the area. The meeting included business and professional men who had taken time off from their activities to attend. As the meeting closed, a motion of thanks was extended to Mrs. Dawson and Messrs. West and Gilker for their valuable assistance as well as their time. (By MADGE NEWMAN) In the past, several attempts have been made to get a fire department going in the Roberts Creek area, now it is closer to a reality. Two members of the organizing committee investigated a piece of discarded equipment which the Sechelt Fire Department wished to go to an interested group thinking about forming a fire department. In the words of Stan Rowland, secretary of the RCFPC, speaking for the committee (Jack Eldred, Ron McSavaney, Dick Marsh, Jim Setchfield and Harry Almond) "So with the good wishes and big hearts of the members of the Sechelt Department we got ourselves a fire truck ��� four wheels, a motor, a red light and siren and a water tank. Not much of a fire department, you say? Right, but it's a start. "Now the serious work began, phone calls, letter writing, wheeling and dealing, plus many moments of despair, but we were making progress ��� determined progress. "While making plans to equip our fire truck we heard that the Gibsons department had decided to make some changes in their inventory, so, we investigated and sure enough, there was a vintage vehicle, reliable to say the least, and al most fully equipped. Once again your, committee wheeled and made a deal, and now, in effect, we have two trucks. "Now you say, hold it .right there, Buster, who's paying for all this luxury? I thought you would never ask . "The Roberts Creek Community association is backing this venture. We feel that they have a lot of confidence in our ability to get this job done. May we have your confidence also? "Bear in mind that this effort to date is only a start. We will need more money to set up the department properly. "If we are fortunate enough in going to a plebiscite, to you the taxpayers and residents of Roberts Creek we say this, give this serious matter a lot of thought. The home we save may be yours." Nomination! The convention for the nomination of Hon. Isabel Dawson as Social Credit candidate for Mackenzie constituency will be held starting at 7 p.m. July 12 in Union Hall, Powell River. The'nomination will be followed by an open public meeting at which Hon. Phil Gaglardi will be the speaker. Robert Wenman, Delta MLA will also be present. Coast News, July 9, 1969.

The visit to the Sunshine Coast of the Brno choir was a resounding success judging from the packed audience which greeted jthem at Elphinstone school auditorium. It was a red-letter day for Gibsons and the Kiwanis ciub which . hosited them. Any sign of their return would be greeted with enthusiasm. Their performance was superb. Klyne Headley and the coinsmittee which labored diligently to get them here deserve a great deal of credit for their effort. - The standard of the choir's performance left nothing to be desired. They gave their best arid pleased the audience immensely. It would have been a treat to have heard the full choir of 75 instead of the 20 that were able to come to Canada but if the 20 were a criterion for the complete choir we still have that pleasurable .event to come. Professor-iDoctor Frantisek Lysek, their leader, has been conducting children's choirs for 46 years. His special interest in the making of choirs has been the study of the relationships between jmusicality and general intelligence. Mingling with these children .outside their choir work revealed they were well-balanced youngsters in spite of the fact a language barrier existed. Sunshine Coast folk also had the pleasure of hearing Klyne Headley's Peace cantata based on poetry provided by daughter Claudia Jean and Elizabeth MacKay, daughter of Mort MacKay of Gibsons. Compared to some contemporary music, the work has real ,merit. It would be doubly interesting to hear it played and sung by a full-sized' orchestra and choir. Very mild optimism Close reading of the statement in the press by Louis Rasminsky, governor of the Bank of Canada, on inflation, is not likely to raise cheers on the anti-inflation front. Here is what Mr. Rasminsky ^id about the general situation: "I know there is danger in wish- jful thinking in these matters but in the past few weeks I have on (occasion thought I could detect some faint glimmering of light on ,the horizon." Now,, when you think you can detect a faint glimmer you are really reaching out. TPerhaps it is -time the federal government did something positive to really get the public to feel some form of pressure, such as reverting to a 35 percent down payment on all credit purchases. It would at least attract attention. (Mr. Rasminsky said the inflationary psychology was one of the biggest challanges to be met. We don't know just what he would Jike to use to beat it but we can offer one method of deflation as jused by a couple of Irishmen who had to carry a small keg of ^whiskey between them to a nearby fair. Discussion revealed one had 10 cents in his pocket. It was agreed they should pay each other for their drinks. So .the dime changed hands as one Irishman helped himself. A little later the other Irishman thought he would like a drink so the dime changed hands again. This went on until their entry to the fair grounds with the small keg much deflated and the finances inflated. One of the fastest ways' to lose friends can be to give their names to a door-to-dopr salesman. It could also be one of the quickest ways to lose money. Referred selling, as this is called, is sometimes ^designed not to save money, but to separate you from, more cash than you could normally afford for a color television set, sewing machine, vacuum cleaner or some equally expensive item. * * * An affable salesman might tell you he is not trying to sell his product ��� he merely wants your opinion of it or he may ask you to test it. But after the pleasantries are over, he may still try to persuade you to buy. There could also be a lure of a nation-wide contest in which you would be eligible to win a car, a mink coat or more money than you could earn in several years. Or there may be a suggestion that this is the. most economical way for the company to introduce and distribute the item, without the expense of advertising. V Then.it may be implied that you can purchase the product at a fraction of the cost simply by giving the names of friends who could be potential customers. Or you could write them yourself, introducing the salesman, his product and his plan. For each additional sale he makes from the names you supply, you might be told, you will be given a bonus which would help defray the cost of the item. The gimmick, however, is that you must usually make a small down-payment, and sign a contract for the full purchase price. And this price is sometimes much more than the goods are actually worth. - . ���. ...*";���** After you have signed the inviting contract, your problems may be just beginning. For one thing, your friends may not; welcome the salesman, nor the idea that they are helping you pay for the item. What you are not usually told is that the contract you sign may be put in the hands of a bank or finance company. This could mean another headache if, after you have recovered from the sales man's personality and plausibility, you decide that you don't ' want the item after all. Then you may be saddled with a product you do not really want��� and with financeor bank payments you want even less. This recently happened to a couple in Enderby, B.C. They decided after three days they did not want the vacuum cleaner, but - could not persuade the agents to return their deposit and remove the $278 appliance. What should you do if you are approached to purchase an item at a discount provided you give the salesman the names of several friends who may be po-. tential customers? Go over the proposed contract, point by point, with the salesman. , Get, in writing, a statement about the average number of bonuses other customers have received. '7 . . * * ��� *7' Be sure you , can afford the item, even > without bonuses. Check the retail price of the product, or one similar to it, before you buy. If you value your friends, get their permission before giving their names and addresses to the salesman. If you do buy, get a written guarantee, and read it carefully. If you have doubts or difficulties contact your provincial government authorities. A . stepchild of referral selling is the pyramid or multi- Jevel distributorship plans ��� to promote cosmetics, cleaning' fluids or other household items. A promoter may invite you to be a representative of the company for a certain amount of money. You may be told to appoint assistant managers who will, in turn, appoint salesmen, each of you investing a certain sum in the company. Not all of these operations are as financially rewarding as they may seem. If you are approached, you'd be wise to: $��� He ��� # ��� ' . Find out the potential market of the product in your area. Discover if your territory is protected ��� that there is not a glut of distributors selling that product or one similar to it. 2 commemorative stamps I: Q^^^^^^^^^^'^-^^^r^^^ COAST NEWS 5-10-20 YEARS AGO Books in library FIVE YEARS AGO A 30-suite apartment block is announced, to ibe built on School road.

Latest report JL M-\^JM-M-% Frnm _li���� Floral Tim., nt Period Ending June 29 Once again the fishy spots were over on the west side of Howe Sound in waters around Salmon Rock, Gibsons Gap and Gower Point. Both Salmon Rock and the Gap yielded several chinooks around the 20 and 30 lb. marks. Gower looked slightly less 'productive giving up fish to-18 lbs. Saturday morning at Salmon Rock saw Dick Smith take a dusky 43 pounder on a mooched herring. There's usually not much action with cohoes in outside waters early in the season but normally a few fish round out the catches. This year it's been a bust. Just one coho was seen for sure this weekend and word was received of two more having been taken. Several heavy fish to about 24 lbs. and a number pf jacks were boated off the east shore of Anvil Island. This looks to be the farthest point of progress of the Squamish River - bound Britannia run. McNab Creek yielded a jack and later in the day. a 17 pounder on Sunday. One angler here claimed to have seen several heavy fish finning on the surface. Tuesday of the current week found only 2 jacks among fa dozen or so boats at check time. .. A late report was received mentioning a 25 pounder taken at Hope Point, Gambier Island on Tuesday morning of this week. And here's another: Carl Emde and partner boated five chinooks of 50,, 35, 30, 26 and 19 lbs. all at McNab Creek Tuesday morning. The report we received was that the fish were taken on trolled herring From the Federal Dept. of Fisheries, Vancouver strip back of a Flasher. The report for the upper section of the Sunshine Coast mentions that southeast winds and rain showers kept the lid on most activity last week with the few boats venturing out finding fish generally scarce. Looks like a few coho in the Egmont area finally. The fishery officer's report mentions fair coho-ing from Killam Bay up-Inlet to Vancouver Bay, also small coho across from Egmont in Hotham Sound. Boat checks afloat from Egmont up to Vancouver Bay tallied 9 chinooks from 8 to 24 lbs. and 42 coho , averaging 3*4 lbs. among 45 boats early Sunday afternoon. Chinooks at Egmont Channel were reported to be hard to come by last week. Boat checks afloat in Sechelt Inlet from Porpoise Bay to Nine Mile Point counted 12 coho averaging 4% lbs. and 14 chinooks from 8 to 30 lbs. among 16 boats with another 8 boats reporting no catch. The report also mentions chinooks in Porpoise Bay on the flats but dogfish a real menace ��� so bad, in fact, that it took eight bucks worth of herring for one moodier to take his four-fish limit. Telescope Pass joining Blind Bay and Jervis Inlet had few chinooks last week and no coho. Fearney Point was spotty. Chinooks to 12 lbs. were taken here on occasion. Chinooks from Quarry? Bay included a 25 pounder on Sunday by 13-year-old Ken MacKie visiting here from 100 Mile House. Lee Bay came up with a number of heavy fish on the weekend including a 25 pounder by Allan Knottell Saturday adding to his 28 pounder here on Thursday; a 34 pounder by Ray 1 PUBLIC MEETING Thursday, July 10 ��� 8 p.m. ROBERTS CREfK COMMUNITY HALL For the formation of a Volunteer Fire Department for the Roberts Creek area PORT MELLON COMMUNITY ASSOCIATION ANNUAL SPORTS DAY Seaside Park Saturday, July 12 Starting at 10 a.m. (prompt) Madden Saturday; and a 28 the same day by Cleton Fer- rario to top his 25 and 12 pounders on Sunday morning. ;��� Five boats checked at Point Young, Lasqueti Island Monday afternoon reported 12 cojhoes to 6 lbs. Waters out of Secret Cove had a few cohoes to 5 lbs. on the weekend. Japanese fish catch record Total fisheries production reached record heights in the fiscal year 1967, according to Japan's Agriculture - Forestry Ministry's 1968 White Paper. Production, exclusive of'whale's",.' amounted to 7.8 million tons, up 10 percent from the previous year, second-ranked to Peru's 10.1 million. While noting the record! figure for Japan, the White- Paper pointed out that the production of high-class fish .was in short supply. For example, pollacks, used as animal feed and for fertilizer, accounted for 1 million tons while hauls of tuna, salmon and shellfish did not show any increase. As a result, imports of fish products went up 14 percent and exports declined 9 percent. In the international field, the White Paper stated that an increasing number of countries have widened their territorial (waters or set up exclusive fishing zones along their shores. These restrictions followed a pattern established several years ago and to cope with it, the White Paper advises that Japan co-operate in conserving fish resources on a scientific basis. At the same time, it pointed out that practical plans must be drawn up to safeguard the established rights of Japanese fishermen and to clarify the country's position on territorial waters and fishing zones. 8,500,000 PLANTED The council of the Forest Industries of British Columbia '-announces that major coast forest companies planted approximately 8.5 million trees this spring in reforestation of .25,- 000 acres. Proposed planting was reduced by one million .seedlings, council says, in a season shortened by severe winter weather and high temperatures in May and early June.

The visit of the Brno choir to Gibsons should giveSunshine Coast citizens1 a lift inasrnuch as it was the first concert to be given by the choir in all Canada and was also .the first place in which the Klyne Headley tryp- tich Peace was presented. So there was doubly a first, the first concert and the first presentation of the Headley work, which' by the way, contains merit enough that it could be listened to .several times in order to catch all the wealth the music contains. Elphinstone school hall was well-packed, leaving a few vacancies only in the bleacher section. .,The audience was splendid in its behavior. It was warned at the start that quietness was es*- ^ential to get the best but of the choir" ��� and the audience was remarkably quiet. The O Canada opening, sung by -the 650jplus audience was very pleasing and the singing of the Czech national anthem towards the close of the concert gave many of the homeland folk in the audience a chance to sing along with the choir with the entire audience standing arid responding with a definite ovation at its condusion. The choir leader, Professor- Doctor Frantisek Lysek handled the choir as he would an organ bringing out the sections as the music demanded. There were only 20 in the choir, six boys and 14 girls, and if anyone missed one of the boys during the singing of folk songs in national costumes, the. missing lad was down among the girls. The Mozart Ave Verum and the Pales- trina O, Domine! revealed the fine scope of their liturgical singing. The clarity was .exceptional, especially on high notes and their crescendos and diminuendos showed the effect of musical discipline. For a choir of 20 teenagers they could manage quite a volume of clear sound when called on. The young blond flautist in the Vilem Blpdek concerto for Flute with Erika Kocianova at the piano played beautifully, revealing, young as she was,, she was master of her instrument. The audience would have been delighted to have heard more but the strenuous program would not allow it. Pianist Erika kocianova, mastered the school grand piano sufficiently to give a fine description of Smetana's Furiant. The applause left no doubt as to the effect of her playing. Their popular folk songs of Czechoslovakia as arranged by Prof. Lysek gave the youngsters an easier time as they were quite at home in their homeland songs. To refer to impromptu singing which occurred fat another time in the Headley home, the young choristers were equally familiar with North American popular folk numbers, singing along with Sunshine Coast folk in equal gusto, f 7 Additions to the program in- clued the Handel 0\ Lovely Peace in which they _-hbwed they did not fear the Handelian. mode of musical expression. A rousing Benjamin Britten number followed. The Lysek version of the Brahms Lullaby, while brief, was pleasing. To compare this choir of 20 voices with larger choirs leaves" one asking the question how many 20 voice choirs of this type are producing such music? Singing is not their vocaton. It is an. avocation with them and should be judged' in that light. Some 8,000 youngsters have sung un* d'er Prof. Lysek's direction in these choirs over 23 years and they have obtained an appreciation of music never to be forgotten, y Comment on ,the Klyne Head- ley cantata Peace will be tempered by' the fact this is the Nanaimo anniversary The 25th anniversary of the founding of Nanaimo Sea Cadet Corps, RCSCC "Amphion" was celebrated Saturday evening by a reunion of former sea cadets and officers of the corps. Commander G. MacFarlane RCN, Esquimalt, delivered the keynote address, praised the men who took the initiative in forming the corps 25 years ago and complimented the officers and cadets of today's corps for their , proficiency and achievements. Special guest was Capt. William York Higgs, the first commanding officer of RCSCC Amphion. Commander MacFarlane recalled serving as a seaman on a tug commanded by Capt. Higgs. The commander also read a clipping of the Nanaimo Free Press about 30 years ago which related the sighting of Caddy by Cant- Higgs and seaman-MacFarlane. Capt. Higgs was presented with a wall plaque with names of former officers of the corps. Cadet CPO D. Morton accepted a shield on behalf of the corps 5 first major work of music written by this composer and therefore can hardly be placed against the works of others who have been in this field much longer. . ��� :-���' However haying listened to -it as sung by 20 voices} with piano accompaniment and later to a recording ;> with a complete choir and full orchestra the conclusion can be reached that the music is a brave attempt at the picturing of emotions, ex- , pressed by two young persons, into music as felt by an adult. t Transcribing words to music and sometimes music to words . is a difficult art and really needs the mind of a genius such ���-: as depicted, by the Beethoven Pastoral symphony or the Berlioz Symphony Pharitastique. Mr. Headley should be congratulated. Any performance when placed before some critical masterminds leaves one wondering over the imperfections . of those same masterminds wh& 7 are unable to cast a kindly eye ori anyone or thing struggling towards achievement: As in the past, musical works not liked % by critics have usually existed f a great deal longer than the critics. Friday night following the concert the Headleys arranged a party for friends and families that lodged the visitors during their stay in Gibsons and it was there that the mingling youngsters of two nations were quite at home as a result of the partial demolition of the language barrier. .They sang f along with Sunshine Coasters some of the My-Bonnie-Lies- Over-the-Ocean type of songs with considerable gusto. It was not until Saturday morning that the real test of friendship came when, at Elphinstone school from where their bus was to leave for Vancouver, after some speechmak- ing, interpreted or otherwise, when tears began to flow. Don't think they were all Czech tears. There were quite a good few Sunshine Coast tears, too. Howeverall things come to an end and the bus pulled away with tearful smiles on faces. Each of the choir, members had parchments among their belongings presented to them by the mayor and' alderman of Gibsons and von these parchments were words of greeting they will show their parents in their Czech homes. To sum up, the opening words of Hon. Isabel Dawson were that this was a proud moment for us all. She hoped it would be the first of many other such ..events as it provided a language which all could understand through the joy of expression in art. Aid. Ken Goddard on behalf of Gibsons council welcomed the choir. Ron McPhedran for the Kiwanis spoke on the organization, of the trip of the choir after landing at Vancouver and their experiences in Gibsons. On behalf of the Kiwanis club he thanked all who had helped. At the conclusion bouquets presented by former commanding officers. A surprise presentation was one made by cadets of the corps to their officers. The cadets gave the officers a barometer. Formal portion of the evening concluded with the cutting of a birthday cake decorated in the form of a ship. Capt. Higgs assisted by Cadet Larry Mc- Pherrin, cut the cake with a naval officer's sword. Refreshments and an informal social hour followed the presentations and the speeches. Douglas Kirkbride was master of ceremonies. John Patrickson, president of Nanaimo Branch Navy League of Canada, spoke briefly as did Lieut. G. Riddell, present commanding officer. Former commanding officers attending the function were Capt. W. Higgs, Bob Grubb, Bill Curtiss, Charles Tub and Fred May. Amphion band pflayed an original piece composed by bandmaster D. Bonner, especially to mark the 25th anniversary of the corps. were presented to the seniors with the choir and one went to the youthful flautist who made such a hit with her playing. Presenting the bouquets were Elphinstone's Queen Lee Wiren and Mrs. Ken Goddardf During the intermission Klyne Headley spoke on the aims of the Children to Children Cultural Exchange which he said sought to exchange the best that children are creating in the humanities and sciences in order to help lay the foundations for world peace through understanding. From the ranks of children today will come the leaders of world affairs tomorrow, he added, advising his listeners to take an active part in the work by joining the movement.

The law provides that such a contract of sale contains an in_- plied7 condition^ that tlie bulk mlist correspond with the sample in quality. If it ;d|Qes not, the buyer may repudiate the contract, that is,7hei may refuse to accept delivery; or -"pay for the goods. Similarly there is a condition that the Ibuyer must have an opportunity, to compare the ibulk with the sample. There is also a condition that the goods shall ibe free from any defect rendering them. unmerchantable which would not toe apparent on a reasonable examination of the sample. An example will best explain the way the law operates on this subject. In a leading case the buyer ordered from the seller a certain quantity of cloth for the manufacture of coats which was to Ibe in quality and weight, equal to certain samples ^ supplied; The buyer took delivery and made the idothi up into coats in the usual manner. He Had many dissatisfied7 customers. The coats gave way at the seams under the strain dl> ordinary wear. The cloth, however:- was the same as the sample and the defect could not have ibeen discovered on an ordinary examination although a scientific test of the falbric would have re vealed the defect. -The Ibuyer siied the seller for all his losses. The sellers lawyers argued in court that the buyer had received exacty what he had ordered. The court held in favor of the buyer. Our law sets a very high standard of conduct. It is however, practical and does not set un- realistically high standards. It recognizes that in the business world, it is necessary to take some precautions to protect oneself. When buying iby sample it is up to the buyer to make a reasonable comparison of the bulk with the sample. The buyer is hot however, generally required to make minute scientific or chemical tests. !DE-RELICT ADRIFT An RCMP check revealed the overturned small, craft two miles off Gower- Point in Georgia Strait Saturday was an old craft from Steveston area which got afloat when the tide was on the high side.

The end result/is that, while we clear out growth that is dangerous to our staff and to the continuity our service which the public demands, the cleared land is converted to a grazing area upon which wildlife abounds. The herbicides are applied by ground or aerial spray, as the terrain and available.water supply dictates. Weather conditions are the key to the applications. It must be dry and remain so for 24 hours for the products to be effective. Also, wind must be minimal, usually around 3 miles per hour, to ensure against the spray being carried to desirable growth. Helicopter spraying was carried out on the Sunshine Coast June 14 and 15, but only.after the crews had waited in the area for a week for these ideal conditions. . - It must be pointed out that we use only licensed applicators, and that these applicators must obtain detailed maps from the government services showing all registered water supply creeks, riot because fish damage is expected, but for the reason that the compound imparts an objectionable odor arid taste to the water. Using these maps, the applicators stop spraying at least 100 feet from all creeks. Contrary to some opinion, these, herbicides are not washed into, the creeks, but enter the soil and gradually decompose. Because this is a spray application, many people, tend to-, classify all sprays in the same category, and therefore dangerous. Insecticides are applied by spray and many are becoming - increasingly suspect as' a danger to our way of,life. Chief, amongst these-are the chlorinated hydrocarbons such as DDT, which is now banned in "Sweden and in some parts of the U.S/A. Another is thiodan, responsible for the massive fish kill on the Rhine. The authority has no use for these compounds and have never used them. Safety and costs are prime considerations in our use of these herbicides. - Some people are under the impression that it costs very; little extra to do the same clearing by manual labor. This is/ not so. Manual clearing must be done at least. annually, and; in some area, semi-annually.. In addition, many accidents oc-/ cur resulting in personal in-", juries from axes and power; saws. \ ." ��� On the other hand, herbicides; are safe and will give desired; control from 3 to 5 years. It is hoped that the newer products- will extend this period. If this; comes about, the grasses will; become of sufficient density that'they alone will inhibit the tree growth. Naturally, under these com- , parisons, costs of herbicidal control are very much less than manual, being up to twenty times cheaper. It is with programs of this nature that we are able to keep costs down and these are reflected in low power bills. ���C. M.
