I j Oldtimers say they have nev
I er seen so many varieties of
small bird life as are visible
in this locality at present. Rob
ins are particularly numerous
and may be seen in dozens dur
ing the early morning hours,
i in addition to unwonted num
bers of wild canaries, finches,
' sapsuckers, swallows and othei
varieties of small birds. A num
I her of specimens of the Aus
[ tralian wood duck, transplant
ed a year or so ago on the S3. C.
coast, have also been see’) on
Portland Canal near the dock
The birds are easily identified
: by their tails, which resemble
1 those of a chicken.
Joe Findlay and Bert Bobo
brought to town last Friday r
huge halibut landed by them in
.the vicinity of Halibut Bay, 35
j miles down Portland Canal.
I The big fish was estimated to
| weigh close to 300 pounds and
was between 7 and 8 feet in
length, with an approximate
width of G feet. They also
brought in a number of large
j salmon, one of which weighed
j about 50 pounds. The fish at

among local residents who en
joy fish dinners.
Small halibut are reported

Plan Ore Shipment From
Silverado Property s
I - {
j John Haati and associates are r
| planning to make an extensive
I shipment of high grade silver
ore from the Silverado proper
ty this spring. High grade sil
ver ore with a small gold con
tent is now being sacked in
readiness for shipment and a
contract for transporting it
down Mt. Rainey and to the
dock has been given to Rennie
and Young, Stewart packers.
The ore, consisting of mass
ive sulphides, is being stoped
from a shoot some 40 feet be
low the top level and is being
dropped through two raises,
one an incline of 150 feet, the
other 202 feet vertical. The ore
is passed through a ventilating
pipe slide installe d in the in
cline raise and through a fun
nel in the top of the vertical
raise, thus preventing undue
pulverization through contact
witli the walls. Just how much
will be shipped during the raw
hiding season depends primar
ily upon the extent of the ore
-hoot, but is expected to reach
possibly 250 tons.

value of the peso will now be
subject to a virtually open mar
ket, with a few restrictions to
prevent wholesale collapse of
.he national currency.
