creased, Industry Aided.
Statistics showing the enormous
moo pack on the Columbia, River and
the unusually large number of salmon
egrs obtained from that stream anJ its
tributaries for spawning purposes to
111 furnish conclusive proof of the
sound Judgment of government and
state ofTlclala in deferring the libera
tion of young frjr until they have at
tained a growth of about three inches.
This policy Initiated In this state
four years ko by Henry CMalley. In
charge of the United States Hureau vt
Fisheries. It hns since been adopted
by the States of Oregon and Wash
ington. From the fact that salmon do not re.
turn to the stream from which they
are released for four years. 111 was
the first season the practical results of
the new policy of salmon propagation
could be ascertained. The results were
both gratifying and satisfying; to those
who have enunciated this theory and
Insisted that In Ita thorough and con
tinued application would be found a so
lution to the perplexing problem not
only ef Increasing the annual run ef
salmon, but of conserving the Industry
Itself.

As to the salmon propagation at the
Government's hatcheries, the season of
1911 was the most successful In years.
The climatic conditions for collecting
large takes of eggs were Ideal, the
water remaining low enough so that
racks could be maintained until late In
the Fall, with the exception of one or
two rises which were Just enough to
encourage the fish to ascend the rivers
to the spawning beds.
On the Upper Columbia River, the
Government operatives adopted a new
method for obtaining chlnook salmon
for fish cultural purposes, thst of oper
ating traps In the vicinity of Cooks.
Underwood and Hood River during the
closed season. These fish were cap
tured by tbe Government launch, towed
to an Inclosure which bad been con
structed at the Big White Salmon
hatchery and there held until they ma
tured their eggs, which were then taken
end placed In the hatchery troughs.
The eggs of the salmon at all Govern
ment hatcheries are all taken by In
cision. Salmon of the Pacific Coast live
to reproduce only once and when they
reach the spawning beds they are there
to spawn and die.

The females are dealt blows on the
head to kill them, when matured, then
the fljh Is thoroughly bled by removing

L FUTURE BRIGHT
aTOroT O. HOKE URGES GROWERS
TO EXERCISE CARE.
Offlotal of State Association Deciarea
. That Prod net Must Be Put
In Shape.
MEDICAi. SPRINGS, Or.. Jan. IS.
(Special.) The future for tha wool In
dustry In the United States Is regarded
as promising by John G. Hoke, secre
tary and treasurer of the Oregon Wool
Growers Association. Mr. Hoke de
clares that growers can aid In bringing
about a more prosperous condition for
themselves. If they will exercise more
care In the preparation of their product
for market. He says that he believes
that In the future, wool not In the
proper shape will be condemned. Con
cerning the outlook In general for the
wool Industry Mr. Hoke said:
"As we are now beginning a new year
we must have courage. Do not be de
ceived. I think the flock owners of tbe
State of Oregon are getting out of the
scare tariff agitation has given them.
Stop and figure and see where you are.
A few years ago wool sold for 8 to 10
cents a pound, hence they conclude that
if the duty be again taken off or re
duced wool will again sell for 8 to 10
cents. So to avoid cheap wool they
sell their wool as soon as possible for
12 to 14 cents and think they are for
tunate.
"These frightened men don't seem to
know that last year when they got
those prices, the same wool was worth
IS to 18 cents a pound in Europe and
has been worth as much ever since.
They don't seem to. know that when
we sold wool for 8 to 10 centa we sold
beef and pork and corn and oats, and all
farm products, for less than half the
present prices and that tha trouble
with these products was no diminished
tariff, but a diminished volume of
money In this and foreign countries.
With the world's aupply of wool dimin
ishing and the supply of gold Increas
ing, wool will be wanted at better than
European prices even If tha tariff be
somewhat reduced. If some ault the
' sheep business those remaining will get
better pzicea for their wool and rout
ton, consumers paying more for their
meat, but the sheep men who get Into
a panic because of attempted tariff re
auctions are not the only foolish fel
lows:
'The people and politicians, who ex
pect the prices of clothing will be re
duced. If duties on wool be reduced,
are no wiser. The tailors say It takes
JH yards of double-width cloth to make
an average suit of clothes; call it S
yards, the average weight of double
width of all wool cloth Is about 16
ounces. A little more than three
pounds of scoured wool en
ters Into the average all wool
suit. This beat scoured wool has
been selling in Philadelphia for 50 cents
a pound, or 81.76 for the suit. The
wool Is a little higher now, but 82 will
now buy the wool In a good all wool
suit, which costs the wearer 820 or 825
If ready-made, or 810 or 815 mora If
tailor made. If the wool should cost a
little less the suit would be sold for
no less. In the matter of wool It Is
not so much tariff as the trusts and
large profits of middle men and the
expensive distribution of goods that
beats the consumers. President, poli
ticians and people should all know that
no good can come from any reduction
on duties on wool."

Alleging that he was employed as a

of the local option laws, and to date
has failed to receive compensation, C.
F. Parker, of Portland, today prevailed
upon the court for an immediate settle
ment. He asserts he succeeded in caus

titled to 850. Although admitting thai
Parker was employed as a detective,
District Attorney Brown avers that the
county is not liable for the reason that
he was hired by ex-Sheriff Fenton. In
substantiation of this contention the
District Attorney says there was no
contract existing between Partner and
the county, and therefore collection ol
the sum will be difficult. Parker threat

bill is not paid.
