DID YOU KNOW? - is a portion of a symposium on Pets and Society and-following are a few of the comments Canadian communities have to face up to the fact that owning a pet is no longer a right but a privilege, to be shared by the rich and poor alike. The reasons include the high cost of animal control, cleaning up after dogs and cats, etc. It is estimated that one out of six people in Canada owns a dog, and one in eight, a cat. At a conservative estimate, then, there are six million dogs and cats in Canada. Where are the six million responsible pet owners? The fecal and urine deposits on our streets can be measured in hundreds of tons and thousands of gallons daily, and is costing a fortune to dlean up. With an estimated dog and cat population of six million, the daily fecal output is at least 600 tons and at least 1 million gallons of urine daily. It has also been found that larvae Toxocara canis (dog roundworm) found in the deposits can cause eye lesion, that 20 per cent of ail eye balîs removed last year ,contained the roundworm. Last year an 18 ~month old Ottawa boy, who had a habit of eating dirt, died from the roundworm even though his parents had neyer owned a dog. Therefore it is suggested "Please, when walking your dog carry a container to dlean up af ter him'and save a life of a chil."

Once a golfer has developed a solid address position he is ready to strike the golfball. Now the single thought in a golfer's mind should be - "Swing throughto the target." A golfer should always'try to make sure the back of the lef t hand is moving toward the target. If you swing to the left of the target (a very common habit), the resulting shot will be an off line golf shot. The swinging of the golf club at the target requires practice and serious concentration but the result- ing improvement can be substantial. 100 0 9 first place finish in 'C' class. George Comacchio of Toronto and Roger Taylor of Bramalea are tied for third place, both with 15 points.'

Bowmanville 623-5487 Conservation News Rainbows Galore! During recent weeks Lind- say District trout streams flowing 'into Lake. Ontario have been a real "hot bed" of activity. The volume of the annual spring spawning run of migratory rainbow trout from Lake Ontario has Ibis year far exceeded any observed in recent decades. Ganaraska Fishway Establishes New Record In its Ihird year of operation Ihis spring the Ganaraska Fishway at Port Hope has far surpassed ils previous records for numbers of migratory rainbow brout which have been passed upsbream. These impressive game fish on Iheir way from Lake Ontario to the spawning beds of the Upper Ganaraska River have, until 1974, been denied access to many miles of prime spawn- ing and nursery habitat by the physical barrier of the Corbett Dam in Port Hope. The installation and operation of the Ganaraska Fishway sînce that lime has enabled egg- laden female trout 10 deposit their precious "cargo" in habitat, which supports heallhy reproduction upon ferlilization by their male comrpanions. In the first spring of operation of the fishway in 1974, approximately 525 spawning adull rainbow rout- were passed upslream. Six weeks of operation -in the spring of 1975 saw a heallhy 600 rainbows passed. A whopping 1200 rainbow brout have already been pass- ed this spring by the lime of writing and indications are that this number wîill increase substantially before the run is over. Lt book only 10 days of operalion Ibis year to shabter the former record of 600 fish passed. While a number of factors are thought to be contributing- to this years' "population explosion," Nabural Re- sources fisheries managers suspect that reproduction in the Upper Ganaraska River from the 1974 spawning season is now beingreflected in the numbers of adulîs relurning to spawn. Lt is anticipated Ihat analysis of the age distribu- tion of this year's returning adult population monitor6d at the fishway will verify this theory Opening of 1976 Fishing Seasons in the Lindsay District April 24 - Rainbow Trout, Brown Trout, Brook Trout.
