Fish Warden , McAllister's
INew Plan for Feeding the
Young Salmon' Will Sare
large Item of Expense-
Canneries to Aid. . '
An Innovation In the raising of young
salmon - has been' Introduced ' by ; the
United Statea fisheries department
largely through the efforts of ; H. C
McAllister, master fish warden of, Ore
gon. Mr -.McAllister has Just returned
from a trip into southern Oregon, where
he has heen Inspecting .th hatcherlea
along the streams In that section. v v
At the recent meet In a of the state
board of fish commissioners Mr. Mc
Allister told , the commission that he
had secured promises from the large
canneries of the state to pack the heads,
smelt and roe of the salmon in aallon
cans for use in the feeding of young
fry in the state hatcheries. This will
b dons without expense to the govern
ment except the cost of the cans.
Formerly . the young salmon . were
nourished on liver, and this proved ex
pensive. Th new food la belter aulted
to tne sen a or tne young nan, wmcn
grow rapidly en their natural diet.
The state of Oregon has agreed to
turn over the Clackamas river and the
hatchery at Caxadero on that stream to
United Statea Superintendent of Oregon
Hatcheries O'Mally, and th federal gov
ernment will take charge of the.hatoir
erv Julv 1. . Hereafter exjea will be fur
nished to the atate fisheries department
free of cnarge ty tne new united utates
hatchery. The fish warden was or
dered to buy th necessary cans. -
Owing to the increased amount of
office work devolving on the master
warden the state board has decided to
allow him a deputy Inspector of hatch
eries, who will take much of this part
of the work off the warden's hands.
The question of establishing the Bon
neville hatchery was left to the warden,
with instructions to look over the field,
and If everything proved satisfactory
to begin operations at once.
The appointment of J. W. Berrlan as
superintendent of the proposed Bonnei
vlll station was approved, aa waa also
the appointment of E. C. Oreenman, A.
J. Sprague, J. W. Talbert and Bliss
Thorn.
The report of the expert who had been
appointed to audit the books of the ex
Master Flah Warden H. G. Van Duen,
waa read. It showed that Mr. Van
Dusen's books had been found to be in
perfect order, and upon motion th-report
waa ordered filed.
SATS MAEEIAGE
INSTJEES LIFE
Professor Lange finds Bachelors
Have Weak Stomachs as Well
as Heads and Hearts.
Berlin, June 20 A German scholar
named Lifnge, who have given much at
tentlon to. the question whether mar
ried man or bachelore live the longer,
records his emphatlo verdict In favor
of the married men. He has studied
th sick funds and Insurance statistics
of Europe and America, and this la hU
solemn conclusion: 1
Not only do married men live longer,
but they are more Immune as regards
sickness. Dange has a pile of statis
tics from' places where various epidem
ics have prevailed, the range ooverlng
Hamburg,, Liverpool. Chicago, Rome,
and In every case, whether the disease
has been cholera, typhus, smallpox or
measles, th bachelors have caught the
disease nrsi, nave succumoea iirst, ana
shown by far the highest rate of mor
tality, ft 1 when they become some
what aged that bachelors show the
greatest tendency to illness.
It sneaks volumes for their selfish
and one-sided way of life that the dis
eases to which they are most prone are
diseases of the organs of digestion.
From - diseases of the throat thev are
peculiarly free, wnatever tms may sig
nify. Their hearts, such as they have, are
in a bad way. Professor Lange says
diseases of th heart In bachelors are
mora numerous ana tax rar more 6an-
gerous forms than among married men.
What does this signify T Does It mean
that the hearts or tne selfish ones
"a-row bad" from want of movement
and the practice of love and charity T
Lang does not say.
Another point: Madness and lunacy
in all their terrible shapes are more
frequent among bachelors. Any psy
chiatrist In rood practice will confirm
this. ' .There are wards In publlo asy
turns ' where among certain kinds of
lunacy quit 80 per cent are bachelors,
and the strange thing la that they are
mostly incuraDie cases.
Tne moral is oovious.
