Those being cangbt now are of the spring varietv and are ou their way to the upper wa era of the Clackamas river there to spawn. The Clackamas river is one of the few rvers of Oregon in which the spring salmon enters in numbers and is perhaps the only one that is holding its own in regard to the number entering it. The credit, for this mut be given to the State Hatchery located some sixty miles above the junction of the Clackamas with the Wil lamette. It is hoped that the Govern ment will again take uo the question of propagating the fall salmon which are of questionable value. The Biicceas of artificial propagation is no longer a de batable question. The question now. is the choi e of the beBt varieties. o: Phone 1121 lies. 1833 Office In favorite Cigar Store Opposite masonic Building Williams Bros, transfer Co.
