The sportsâ€" men, especially those with gli'l‘ty consciences, have already ly resolved not to take any trout less than 7 inches, to refrain from exâ€" ceeding the legal b-: limits and never to shoot anything that is out of season. _ There are a tot of us though, who are neither farmers or sportsâ€" men and whose only claim to beâ€" ing SULGOOLTAMCN 2 B U onatel love of the beauties of the counâ€" try sideâ€"â€"wh-t‘then can we do in I Msm C e n egc es itan the interests of conservation. In the first place we can resolve nonoplckcnyoflhomflnvlu is it in this district. PCW PePPIC X*®" ize that the wholesale picking of flowers which grow so plentifully in this district. Few people realâ€" our wild flowers is resultinf in the extermination of some of the most beautiful of the plants of our woods and fence rows. The trilâ€" liums, the dog tooth violets and the hepaticas were once quite plentiful, but have become quite rare in some districts as a result of this ruthless picking, so let us resolve to admire our native flowers in their natural surroundâ€" ings where others can enjoy them besides ourselves. ~~ o2 Another resolution which we might profitably make, is to go out and see for ourselves more of our wildlife in our woods. â€" Right here within walking disâ€" | tance of the city of Galt is to be | found a large variety of tree and | piant life. The dog.;:'oods, honeyâ€" | suckles, wild cranberries and the barberries, all rare in some secâ€" tions, are to be found in profusion along the roads and the banks of the Grand River, whilst the, stream itself, even in winter, is the home of almost every kind of: waterfowl common to Ontario. If| you care to take a quiet drive . around day break or in the evenâ€" ing aiong the side roads of the ‘gorth Dumfries Crown Game reserve you are liable to see more deer thanâ€" most hunters see in the course of their annual two weeks hunting trip to the North. If you don‘t slow up at the "Deer Crossing" sign you may come in very violent contact with them _ Few of us réalize just how easâ€" ily accessible are the woods and wildlife of our province. If you E,gare to take a comparaâ€" tively short motor trip to some of our Provincial Parks, you will find that many of the best beaches and camp sites have been reserved for the use of the public and in all of them is free camping accommedations, . whilst _ most have all facilities and fireplaces. All you have to do is drive in with your campaign equipment and motherâ€"nature and the Deâ€" partment of Lands and Forests provide the rest. _ w Et Smss deemacoe ce A cottage site can be purchased in these parks from the Governâ€" ment for a little as $30.00 plus the cost of surveying and if you are very ambitious, you can buy a whole island for the price of a city lot. So let us all resoive that this year we will see all we can of the outdoors and that we will conserve and not destroy its beauâ€" ties and its riches. Huronia is now Ontario‘s bigâ€" gest summer cottage area, surâ€" passing Muskoka by a wide marâ€" gin. #mm Owen Sound on the west to Orillia on the east, there are over 20,000 cottages. â€"oâ€""_ & APPLIANCES M King St. 8.
