The fish huts down on the Ice at Burlington Bay, Hamilton, all along the north shores of Lakes lOrie and Ontario, near the various small towns, and most con«'pi> uous af all on Kempenfeldt Bay, facing Barrie and Allaudale, are ?.lwayB a mystery to visitors in Canada, although to the native Canadian they are for the most part conimonplace. Astonishingly few know what they are when they see them first. Then the obliging well-informed part in the adjoin- ing seat of t'le train supplies the ellipsis. The next time they taste that fine mess o' fresh fish on the home table, or tt their hotel, they appreciate its delicacy of not-cold- slorage flavor, more highly still. It is doubtful whether mid-winter lisbing will ever become as pojiulcr as dangling the oiled-silk over the };unwale of a soft-cushioned skiff, at quiet, calculated anchor among Aug- ust's wavering green sedges. But It has its devotees. They are strictly in It Yor the money. The winter just past has beep a good, old-fashioned, good season for them, starling about the middle of December last, when the thermometer "went down with a bump." At that "bunif ' every ice-hole fisherman on our Ontario bays and lakes waxed joyful and hied him away to his fn'orlle part of the shore with many striinge fixings roped to his har.f.-sleigh. First he pliked up his bearing, tigured out the currents, and shifted his position from that of the previous winter if experience dictated so. Next, ho erected his houh; ujiou the Ice â€" a very simple affaii--lli,ht enough to cany holus-bolus on his sled. Some times he has to build it. He is- his own architect, and there are no building bylaws, ;-o that a few sec- tions of battered corrugated Iron, half a dozen boa-tis or so, with a torn old sail cloth, suffice when thrown crudely loKether â€" but strong- ly, for the struct , re has to weather niuny's the fieico winter's gale and snowstorm. The man or boy who follows the ice-Oshfng must lie no weakling. .'»oni«' times yon get one so warm- blooded and husky that, by choice, he dispenses with a cosy shack alto- gether â€" both it a,id the small sheet- iron stove thi-t often adds to Its com- fortâ€"and is xatisliei instead witli a wind-break of canvas nailed lo two slout supports, thai iie props Into the Ice between' his battery of Ice-holes ani' the chilly bref7.»'». Of course Ihc first job confronting liie winter an>;ler after providing protection against the elements Is to cut his holes. It in as much as one man can do to look properly after six of these; many are content with but three.- If the fates are propitious, the latter allowance will keep him busy, because each of the lines that he sinks down a hole is barbed with two â€" sometimes more â€" hooks. The holes are about half-a-foot square, cut dear through the ice no inalter how thick, with an Ice-chisel; i.lthough thin Ic^ can be managed handily with an ordinary axe. along with considerable patience â€" especial- ly if the wind is blowing In-shore, and every stroke ma the close of the operation forces r. spurt of frigid » at- p'- that generall. find^ lodgment in the region of on'' face and neck. After beinf dropped through, the ends of the sevcal lines are fastened lo a stick or spik^ driven to one side and. having attended to each hole similarly. It.e expectant wlnter- fisbcTinan stands or sits by and awaits results from those \vl):KliiiK minnows wllli which he has garnish- ed each and every hook. .Soiuetimes he watches a line tau- ten-â€" only to ciscover that a fair-sized "!^irdine" has put nim to the wet and cold disii|ii)oiniment of luiuling in; somelimos it wil. be only one of the despised but .oracious "t luck lizards (name in the trade: 'â- Uhsch"); \i^v< r- tlicless, off it must come. aii)j livo new bah replace 't, or theie^ili be no marketable herring, or yfTlow pike, or perch cauglit In that hole that day. The woik would be a poor one for a cripple. With live T>r six boles there is something roquiring" attention every minutes; soiuetlnics several things, and at different l.oles. It it Is not n sinker, or a hook, or a tan- gled line (in a location with swift currents), or i^ bite, or fresh baitâ€" the lish harvester must go from hole lo hole renioviiit; the thin ice which forms, by means of a cup or dipper.

Indeed, a hundred pounds falls to a single man's lot, and Just by way o an unusual run of luck (and fisb), sometimes another llfly oM top of that.

TESTI MG CON CRETIE. Experlmanta to Show the Actipn of 8ea Water and Frost. One of the largest construction com- panies in this country la making ex- perimenta to determine what is the ac- tion of sea water and frost upon con- crete. According to Science Conspec- tus, the company made twenty-four concrete columns, each sixteen feet long and sixteen inches square, re-en- forced with Iron bars near their cor- ners, and In Jantiary, 1909, immersed them in the water at the Boston navy yard. At high tide the water almost entire- ly covers them, but at low tide they are completely exposed. Thus In cold weather tho columns are alternately thawed and frozon as the tide rises and falls. The columns are made with various qualities of concreteâ€" mixed dry, plastic and very wetâ€" and also with different qualities of cement Ex- perts are studyin.^r tho effects of the addition of waterproofing materials. Clay and other substances are added from time to time, and the effect is ob- served. Many years must elapse before It will be possible to tell with certainty what kind of concrete Is most perma- nent When last examined many of the columns were virtually unaffected, but others were badly eroded. The columns that contain the largest pro- portion of cement mixed wet, have so far shown the least wear. Of two col- umns made with one part of cement to one of sand and two of stone the one mixed dry was badly eroded over Us entire length, whereas the other, which was mixed very wet, was only Bllghtiy pitted. The experiment It Is expected, will throw much light npon a problem that has long perplexed construction en- gineers. Doubt.

Indeed, It was only the consis- tent quality of British goods that had upheld the British manufacturer against the competition of the last twenty years. So far as Canada is concerned, the British manufactutor had not only to mee. Kuropeun, but I American competitiou, and the Amer- I lean had the advantage of the Britod i both strategical!, and geographically Proximity, fashion, and standardiza- tion all combined to ai^. the American .'Xporter in the Canadian market. But, however advantageous the posi- tion of the American manufacturer might be, for the reasons already giv- en, that alone diu not account for their enormous p:eponderance iu tha C^anadian market. There might be another reason â€" their selling and marketing conditions might be better suited to the Canadian conditions than our own."
