Kn Superintendent I.yne.t.
Something of an Idea of tho mag
nitude of tbo work which la being
done at tho Tumtilo fish hatchery,
In restocking the lakes and streams
of Central Oregon with trout, wan
gleaned by members of the Ilend
Commercial club who beard the brief
talk of I'earl I.yncs, superintendent
of tbo hatchery, nt yesterday's forum
meeting.
One fourth of nil tbo trout hatched
artificially within tho stnto of Ore
gon last year wcro hatched hero, and
placed In Central Oregon wators,
oald I.yncs. Seven million havo been
planted in tho past two years, this
being 75 per cent of the entire num
ber that has been planted here.
Over SO lnkes In Central Oregon
have been stocked, and It la tho In
tention of tho game commission to
stock every body of water In this
region which Is fit for fish.
Outdoor I'arullso Aim
The local hatchery force Is work
ing to mako Central Oregon a
"sportsman's paradise," snld Lyncs,
and is succeeding in maintaining It
as one of thp greatest outdoor coun-j
tries In tho world.
D. H. Peoples urged that fisher-j
men bo content with less than thu
legal limit catch, In order that tho
tdf.cks of game fish In Central Ore
gon bo not depleted. The work of
tho hatchery la now being felt, ho
I stated, as last season was tho beat
( fishing season In sovornl years.
I Preservation of the game supply
J Is a personal matter with each sports
man, H. N. Duchwalter stated. Ho
I urged local sportsmen to get In
I closer cooperation with tho gamo
I commission, since the preservation of
! gamo Is of vital Interest to every
I citizen, whether n fishormnn or hunt
or himself, or merely a property

MEMORY SHORT
ON DUCK DATES
Violations Are Noted On
The Crooked River Bend
Will Get Baby Swans.
Some of tho ranchers on Crooked
river have apparently forgotten that
there Is any end to the open season
on ducks, la the Impression which
Kodcral Gamo Warden George Ton
kin has gained following Investiga
tions of gamo law violations In Cen
tral Oregon. At any rate there Is
going to bo at least one federal case
from that section. Tonkin says
One rancher admitted to Tonkin that
he had failed to keep any track of
closing dates, and that the ducks had
suffered in consequence. There have
been other violations of a like na
ture. Tonkin believes.
That the Hungarian partridge
would bo the best gamo bird to uso
in stocking Central Oregon to relievo
tho sago hen from threatened exter
mination was Tonkin's advice when
asked on this point. Lack of water
In tho winter and the attacks of
hawks make it difficult for tho Chin
ese pheasant to survive In this coun
try, ho said. Tho Hungarian part
ridge Is one of the most hardy gamo
birds known, with tho exception of
the sago hen. Tonkin's observations
have taught him.
Another movement started by local
sportsmen for tho creation of sago
hen preserves Tonkin considered
might bo of uncertain merit. The
government has had but little success
with its game bird preserves, ho said.
IJaby swan are to be brought to
Ilend this spring on authorization
of State Game Commissioner M. A.
Lynch, and will learn to regard the
quiet stretch of tho Deschutes above
tho Bend Water, Light & Power Co.
dam as their home, the federal game
warden predicts. They will bo taken
at Summer lake.
Tonkin met Tuesday with a num
ber of Bend sportsmen for a discus
sion of game conservation questions.

Iti-nil I'nvori'd In Lumber Industry,
Declare Itobrrt K. Smith Live- ,
stock Market Must Strengthen,
lie Hays In Interview.
As the most encouraging foaturo
In connection with tho gradual bet
terment of business conditions In
state and nation, Robert E. Smith,
president of tbo Lumbermen's Trust
Company of Portland, In Rend Friday
to address a meeting of Masonic or
ders of Central Oregon, comment
ed In an interview on the equaliza
tion which is going on between
prices of farm and manufactured
products. The purchasing power of
the farmer, Smith stated, has been
badly crippled by tho fact that while
virtually pre-war crop prices havo
prevailed during the past year, man
ufactured products Jiave averaged
ICS per cent in comparison with that
standard. Now, however, farm prod
ucts prices are strengthening, and
manufactured goods aro steadily
coming down, and Just as steadily In
creasing the farmers' purchasing
power and in consequence Increasing
the demand for more production.
Kquntlon In ViUuch Shown
In this connection, Smith quoted
statistics covering a period of 20
years given him by an eastern econ
omist, showing that the valuo of
farm nnd manufactured products Is
equal. Based on this, he explained,
greater valuo of crops will necessar
ily mean a larger Industrial output.
Bend will be especially favored in
j the Increasing prosperity. Smith pre
, dieted, because of the nature of the
city's basic Industry. "Lumber la
Improving," ho said, "and with a
prospect for good crops and greater
relative values thero Is bound to be
considerable building in anticipa
tion." The return of prosperity, he
said, will be definitely seen with ths
liquidation of tho 1922 crop.
Allied Debt feature-
The livestock industry of Central
Oregon In keeping with that of tho
country as a whdlu, will becomo
stronger through increased demand
Incident to the heavy marketing of
young stock during tho past fall and
winter, caused by the spur of neces
sity, ho said.
Mentioning the International ex
change situation, Smith predicted
that In two years thero would bo a
strong sentiment In America In fa
vor of the cancellation of tho allied
debt to the United States. At pres
ent, he emphasized, this dobt Is tsx
tremely useful In insuring tho na
tion's strong diplomatic position.

work preparatory to constructing tho
