Earth Tremor Uprools Trees;
Causes 12-Foot Earth Heaves

Uprooted trees ‘and piles of
earth 12 feet high are the result
of an earth tremor_that rocked
parts of ‘B.C. and ‘the western
United States a week ago Monday
night.
The uprooted trees and Piles
of earth were discovered Tuesday

BY Gordon ’ Gordon Anderson‘of t) the Castle

Ranch when ‘hé “Was ‘out

:> -Gordon’s. father, G, W..And-
‘erson, investigated his son's dis-
covery. He’ said the uprooted
trees are located in a bog about
2%. miles back of the Castle Bar
Ranch. The trees, ‘all cotton
wood, were growing in clumps of
about five or six.

The swampy ground was too
moist to hold the large trees
when’ the earth tremor struck
and they were uprooted. Mr. And-
erson ‘said cotton woods have no
tap roots, “particularly when they
grow in a swamp," and the force
of either a strong wind, a jet
breaking the sound barrier or the
earth tremor of 1%, weeks ago
caused the trees to tumble.

Mr, Anderson estimates that
the trees were uprooted at about
the time that the’ earth tremor
struck the District. He said that
when the trees went down all
the earth around them “tilted up
just Uke a piece of plywood
would ‘under a Christmas tree.”

He said several of the clumps
are at least 12 feet high. The
trees ‘are located in.a narrow
valley with a steep rock “at least
70- to 80-feet high” located right
beside them,

Bag Limit on Ducks
Possession Limit Now 8 Less

Reduction in Bag Limits
Because of Duck Decline

British Columbia duck, hun-
ters may. not suffer as much
as other Canadian hunters from
the declining duck ‘population,
but reductions in bag limits are
necessary to conserve the duck
supply, the Canadian Wildlife
Service announced recently.’

The only encouraging reports
on duck population in North
America came from Alaska,
where surveys indicate good
breeding conditions and a larger
duck population than usual, some
of it possibly made up of birds
who have. fled the dried-up
sloughs and potholes of the prair-
jes,

There is some prospect that
the Pacific Flyway will be less
affected by the duck decline
than areas to the east of the
mountains,

New migratory bird regula-
tions for B.C. set a daily bag
HMmit on ducks of elght, two less
than lest year, and a possession
limit of 32, eight less than last
year, Except for Newfoundiand-
Labrador, the Yukon and the Nor-
thwest Territories, B.C. has lar-
ger bag and possession limits
than any other region of Canada
this year.

Limits on other birds remain
the same. Daily bag limit on

geese is five and possession lim-
it-10 except for the black brant
for which the dally bag limit Is
three and the possession,
