Clackamas S?lniou Hatchery.
correspondent who has visited the
salmon hatching establishment at the
mouth of Clear creek, writes as follows to
the Oregonian:
Tho salmon hatching enterprise on tho
Clackamas river promises to be a great
success. Tho O. tt W. Fish propagating
Co., who aro carrying on tho operations
there, have erected a hatching house 10O
feet by 40 feet, with a hatching capacity of
twenty millions of salmon eggs. 'The
water from tho hatching house is raised
from the Clackamas river by a current
wheel which lifts eighty-five hundred
gallons an hour.
Tho plaeo is now in first rate running
order, and several hundred thousand sal
mon eggs from the Clackamas are now in
tho houso in the process of incubation, in
addition to a hundred thousand from Mc
Cloud river, in California, which were sent
lor to replace a similar number destroyed
by the first rise in Clackzinas river, which
canto before the hatching houso was read
to receive tho eggs.
Resides the hatching house the company
have a dwelling house and several other
buildings, and have laid out in their vari
ous improvements several thousand dol
lars. Tho location of this establishment is
particularly favorable, as 'tho Clackamas
river has undoubtedly been for centuries
ono of tho greatest natural spawning
grounds of the Chinook salmon (Salnto
nuinnat). Until tho great increaso of the
drift net fishing on the Columbia liver
within tho last two or three years, hun
dreds of thousands of Chinook salmon
have leen in tho habit of going uy this
river to spawn, ami even now, with a little
legislative co-operation, salmon enough
would como up to the hatching station to
furnish tho eggs required to fill the Co
lumbia river w ith salmon again, as full as
it ever was in the old days before canner
ies were known.
There is no doubt that tho location
selected combines nioro advantages than
any other point in the basin of the Colum
bia. This enterprise is closely identified
with the interests of a largo portion of
Oregon, and it is hoped that every one
who is desirous or promoting tlie prosper

Some years since, early in tho winter, I took
cold, which as usual settled iuto a severo
couh, which continued to increase as the
season advanced, although I made use of all
the cough remedies I had knowledge of. My
familv plivsician also prescribed for me, but
I experienced no relief. During all this time
I was gradually running down, losing flesh
and strength, until my friends as well s my
self, became very much alarmed, thinking I
should waste away in consumption. While
in 1'osion, during the spring following, I was
induced to try Wistak's Uai.sam ok Wild
Cherry. After one day's trial I was sensible
that it was relieving me ; in ten days time my
e.oujdi had entirely ceased, and I was soon re
stored to health and strength. I have ever
