PROPAGATION OF THE PACIFIC COAST SALMON Last year was one of general dis appointment for the Pacific coast salmon packers. In nearly every cannery district the pack decreased .from 25 to 50 per cent in compari son with the packs of the preceding season. The cannery men were giv en a convincing demonstration of just the sort of a crisis they are facing, namely, the rapid depletion of tbe most important commercial jgpecieg of salmon. As a compensation feature, how ever, there is the fact that while probably 30,000,000 salmon were re quired for the poor pack the can xeries did produce, yet in the spring -of that same year over 500 000,000 salmon were liberated in the various streams of the coast by the combin ed efforts of the government and ;prlvate hatcheries. Half a billion salmon fry may not sound larce to the lav reader who 3inows of a recent slump in Walfl Street stocks; out it sounds tremen dous to the salmon packers, who 3now that if there had been one tenth of that number of full-grown salmon available for packing pur poses during the 1907 season the salmon pack would have been as Jlarge as ever. And, while perhaps it doesn't sound very large to speak of a billion salmon fry, no larger than your little finger, yet let us suppose that one-half of these sal inon reach the ocean and return to their various mother streams to spawn four years hence. It will moan 250,000,000 salmon ranging Jn weight from the Royal Chinook, -which sometimes tips the scales at DO pounds, to the little humpback "which averages not over five pounds. 33ut to bo conservative In striking an avorage, let us consider the aver age weight of these salmon at ten jiounds each. This means that four years from 190G, in 1910, there will return to vtho various rivers of the Pacific coast, and be available almost en tirely for packing purposes, 250, 000,000 salmon weighing ten -pounds each, or an aggregate bulk of salmon weighing 2,500,000,000 Hiounds a supply of fish sufficient to tallow every man, woman and child Un the United States during the fol lowing year a quota of over 30 pounds of salmon, or quite enough llah to feed the entire nation for jovcr a month, if no other food sup pTks were available. To transport this enormous supply of fish to narket would re quite 50,000 box cars or a freight train over 400 .miles long. Daniel Pratt in Outing. WUATJIElf rUKtUdSl. (By Associated P-ess.)

LeMieux and his partner in the painting and decorating business, Mr. Monteith, have built two fine homes in Fern dale this summer. Try these a kind thought, a kind word, a kind deed. Every girl thinks that all parents should give their daughters grand weddings. When a man is sober he knows he has no sense, but when he is drunk he forgets it. A man's occupation as a rule is as uninteresting as washing dishes, sweeping rooms and making beds. A shareholder Is a man who spends the money; the promoter Is the man who gets it, and the original owner of the idea Is the man who holds the sack.

Those on board had secured life preservers, but the Incoming tide carried the boat past the danger. R. D. Hume was on the Osprey and witnessed the ordeal. Likes Coos Bay. Prentis Gray, one of the owners of the steamship Alliance, who with his wife arrived from San Francisco yesterday for a few days stay here, expressed himself last evening as delighted with the improvements in Marshfleld since his last visit about five years ago. He has always been an earnest admirer of Coos Bay and a believer in its possibilities, but the development that has been made was a revelation to him. Today he and Mrs. Gray and Agent H. W. Skinner went over to the'Coquille Valley to look over that section. 4 AT THE THEATRE. -t Htonlght at I. O. O. F.

T MS HY The Taylor Piano House Sells So Many Pianos FIRST The pianos we sell are worth the money and give perfect satisfaction. SECOND Our prices are the lowest and our terms the easiest. One Price to Everyone is our mottc. WE DO NOT BELIEVE in asking ?500 or $000 for a piano that should be sold for $300. We have never tried to mislead the Piano Buying Public by pretending that we have the only High Grade Piano on the market. But we do claim that the pianos we sell on easy payments have merits equal to any sold in this county. For Instance, the Hardman which has been on the market for over seventy years, and which is used by the very best musical taletat in tho world. Caruso, the world's most famous singer, uses the "Hardman" piano and endorses It very highly. It has the Wessell, Nickell & Gross Action. One of the best actions that is made in the United States, and used in such pianos as the Knabe, the A. B. Chase, and other leading makes that would cost twice as much money as we are asking for the "Hardman." We also have the Price &. Teeple a piano that has no equal in piano merits for the price at which we are selling it. It has the style 10 Imported Felt Hammer and metal flange in the action. Brass hinges and brass pedals, which has the advantage over others, as it will not tarnish in this damp climate. We have sold over 40 pianos in this County WITHIN THE LAST YEAR, and will be more than pleased to refer anyperson thinking of buying a piano, to any of these satisfied customers. Our Graphophone Department is always open to the public for a resting place while down town. A IiARGE SELECTION of records both for Columbia ' - and Victor always on hand. We have an especially large selection of Cylinder Records at 25 cents apiece. Our 10c and 15c department is always pleasing to the women and children, as they can always find here just what they are looking for. .
