Ore. fAP) An electric fish screen, developed and experimented with for the past 12 months by Shirley Baker and U. B. Gilroy. consulting engineers in the employ of tire federal govern ment, ia a success as far as de velopments have progressed to date, according to word received by Hugh C. Mitchell, director of fish culture for the Oregon state fish commission. At the mouth of an . irrigation ditch or a spillway is erected a cable with chains suspended ev ery 15 inches and weighted with sash weights to resist the flow of the current, the report stated. An iron pipe Is laid approximately nine feet upstream from the chain electrodes and is insulated from the bottom of the stream by sec tions of a common clay conduit. In the electrodes, which are held in 'position by the raft at each end pf the cable is introduced a 60 cy le current wh.th follows a di rect line from the chains to the pipe at the bottom. Descending fish, on encounter ing the area of electrically charg ed water immediately turn back and. follow the main stream in stead of following and attempting their way into the forbidden ditch over which is suspended the elec trodes. Some experimentation will be necessary before this stop is sat isfactorily completed, the report stated, but all trials so far have met with complete success. P. T. L ORCHARD HEIGHTS.
