Cashlsr A TEN MILLION FRY IF ALL EGGS HATIH Salmon Population of Rofue Will Multiply Mightily With Good Luck. The t'evel'ipment of the fieblng in duety of Rogue River is Deiog sys- I teioatically carried on by the United I States Bureau of Fisheries with II. L. Kelly, fish culturlst, in charge of the work a r8CBnt special to the Portland Tele; am. Htcheries are maintained at Findley Eddy, on loue River, 14 milei below Grants Pas'!, at he fall in the III i noia Hiver, Hiid on Klk Creek, a tributary of Upper Rogue River. I A large .iivie halfhery is aho ina'utind at the mouth of Rogue1 River tiy R. I' Hume, the Weddvr-' hum cannery i an. The oaj aciiy of the hatchery ou the Hinri is to hH (irettly increased. Lint year this hatchery handled over 4,lHiO,00() salmon (, aH of which were hatched thero aud the yosug Hiilmon turned Ioohb in the river, ex- cept H00.OOO ot the ftg, which were shipped to the Hume hat' hery. This aianou Fish Cul'urist Keliv expects to secure at 1'shi 10,00'',000 Balmou epg. To have lti'uhor with wlnoii to en large the hatchery building aud tbe racks in tbe liver for caichiug the fish and to mike additional hatching troughs, 10.1(00 feet of lumber was brought in from Woodcok's mill, near Kertiy. as thern is only a mountain trail to the fall in the Illinois Rivei, the lumber was rafted down that stream from below Kerby, and the job took 10 days of hard work and frequent rinks of drowning for Mr. Kelly aud big crow of 10 men. The river is tbe lowest it bat been for years, and as the channel parses most of the way through a gorge, with small falls, rapids and big boulders, it made the tawk a difficult one. The racks will be placed across tbe river at once aud the ealinon will be held until their eggs are ready to be taken. The eggs are hatched in troughs kept filled with runuing water, and the young salmon ate kept in the troughs for about six weeks, by which time tl.ey are fairly well able to care for themselves, and are tu ned loose in the river. For this ierlod uo feed is required for the lit tle fish. Where it is possible to se cure beef liver and the fish remnants at cauneriea. it is UBoal to keep tbe youg saluiou in the hatchery until they are four or five moths old and have a length of six inches. They are then so large and swift that few get caught hv the salmon troot, eels, orawfiHb and ether eneiniea. The salmon Industry now affords a revenue of close to fJOO.OOO a year. Last year about $50,000 worth of fiah was shipped from Orauts Pum, and Mr. Kelly believes it would be pos sible within 10 yeara to have the fish output of Kcgue River amount to fully 500,000 any year, could there be ample protection afforded the mi nion and proper fiahways maintained at all (lams placed iu ,tlie rivei. The proper policing of the river does not appear to bo atUinuMe under the lax enforceent of the atate laws, but it would be possible; if the fishing internals were under the control of the (leneral tioveruiueut, which en- forces its regulations with a vigor not. known to state authorities, Siuce the organization of the Rogue River Fishermen's Union, with head quarters at Grants Pass, Mr. Kellv has leeu ahlo to secure better co. peration from the fishermen ami now little fishing is done illegally. He has also su'eeeded Iu getting all the d.iiiis provided with fish Udders so the million have little getting up the river. ditllculty iu , CIRCUIT JUDGE HENRY I nrwcnv orcirwc U.
