FOR LOCAL DAIRY
W. J. Dougherty Buys Qual
ity Holsteins of Carnation

Comprises 18 Cows, Bull
FIRST LADY, MRS. HUGHES FETED
Dairy Industry ot Jackson county
was today a step nearer national rec
ognition as the result of the pur
chase of a herd of purebred, regis
tered Holsteins by W. J. Dougherty
for bis Brookhurst Orchard farm two
miles out of town on Crater Lake
highway.
Th herd comprised 18 cows and a
bull. It has been augmented since
Its recent delivery here by the ar
rival of two calves, one a heifer, the
other a bull.
The cattle came from Duvall.
Wash., purchased from the Carnation
Milk Farms, recognized as the world's
greatest breeder of Holsteins.
Buildings Modernized.
It Is understood the herd repre
sents an Investment of several thou
sand dollars, in addition to this
outlay Mr. Dougherty has modern
ized his farm buildings and Installed
up-to-date equipment to meet all
legal requirements pertaining to san
itation. His is believed to be the
largest purebred. all-Holsteln herd In
the county.
Ten of the cows arc now being
milked and they are averaging six
gallons daily each, Mr. Dougherty
said. He Is disposing of the milk
through the Sonoma cheese factory
In Central Point. He indicated that
he might market the milk for home
consumption either Independently or
through an established distributor.
He emphasized, however, that his pri
mary Interest Is centered in breeding.
Mr. Dougherty had not been en
gaged In the dairy business here be
fore his recent purchase of the Hol
stetn nerd. He Is an experienced dairy
farmer. however, having for years
been in that business In Idaho, a
state he once served as secretary of
state. ,

about 30,000 boxes of the fruit
through Southern Oregon Sales. Inc.
He owns two tracts. The Brookhurst
! orchard comprises 60 acres, and to
the north Is another tract of 86 acres,
i in addition. Mr. Dougherty has a
j large acreage under lease and last
j year raised 100 acres of hay on leased
land.
"Orchards and dairying go hand in
hand," Mr. Dougherty said, stressing
that the Rogue river valley Is espe
cially adapted to both of these en
terprises. All of the Holsteln are registered
stock and the transfer papers are to
be forwarded for recording to the
Holsteln-Prleslan Association of Amer

The quality of Mr. Dougherty's
herd Is Indicated by the pedigree of
the bull. Named Carnation Inka

"It Is merely a modification of the
Brigadier General's uniform I wore

has been changed to correspond with
my present rank.
"Are you going to wear knee
breeches?" asked an Interested young
man, recalling that the president a

By Frank T. Bell ,
(U. S. Commissioner of Fisheries)
Two news items appearing In Ore
gon and Washington papers recently
are of great concern to conservation
ists throughout the country. One of
these describes a memorial passeu by
the Oregon legislature asking con
gress to make an Immediate appro
priation of not less than 9500,000.
This sum Is to be divided between
Oregon and Washington and spent
on building f'.sb hatcheries and fori
promoting In other ways the artific
ial propagation of salmon In the
lower Columbia river.
The other item is an announce
ment that Columbia river fishing in
terests will file suit against the fed
eral government for alleged damages
resulting from dam construction.
Any money awarded to the claimants
In the suit Is to be spent on fish
hatchery establishments on the Co
luxnbla river for the purpose of ef
fecting fishery conservation.
The most Interesting thing about
these proposals Is not that people
are aroused to the danger of deplet
ing the salmon fishery, or even that
the states are asking the federal gov
ernment to shoulder the financial
burden of restoring the fishery but
that the general public sets so much
store in hatcheries. It expects more
from them than they can possibly
produce and falls completely to rec
ognize all the other necessary re
quirements for the conservation of
the fishery.
Almost anyone you meet will tell
you about the work of the bureau
of fisheries or of the state fish and
game commissions. According to them
It consists In the artificial propa
gation of fish In hatcheries. Nothing
more. And they might tell you that
so long as that mysterious process
la going on, we can fish as much
as we like and not ..worry abqut ..the
ultimate fate of the stock.
rndrrMarnltng Lacking
The reason why hatcheries are so
completely accepted by the public.
I think. Is that they closely resemble
a financial Institution run by a con
servative and trustworthy banker.
They keep books and publish from
time to time large and Impressive
figures.
But people generally do not under
stand the true place of the hatchery
In fishery conservation work. Cer
taluly It Is an Important place and
when properly used In conjunction
with other conservation devices the
hatchery Is well-ntgh indispensable.
To begin with, a hatchery saves
numerous eggs and young ftsh by
protecting them from their natural
enemies. It permits rearing them
through the delicate and helpless
young ' stages up to a point where
they are active and self-protective.
As a result of this conservation of
the early stages of life, probably
more fish are able to reach matur
ity than waa possible uuder natural
propagation alone, probably the most
Important thing which hatcheries do.
however, is to make it possible to
transplant fish from overpopulated
to underpopulated streams, and thus
to control, equalize and regulate most'
effectively their distribution. j
LlmltuMim (itetl (
But artificial hatching lias defln-j
Ite limitations. At best It Is only a
supplement for natural spawning. It j
rears and protects the young salmon j
only until they are five or six months -old;
in other words, for a period
amounting to not more than one-1
eighth the total life span. The fish j
are then planted In the streams, j
where they may remain as long as ,
one or two years before they go to
sea. During that period they may be j
devoured by natural enemies, pols-;
oned by the wast products poured
Into the streams by factories lost
In a maze of Irrigation ditches, man
gled In the turbines of electric gen
erators, imprisoned in ponds left by
floods or perhaps suffer any of ft
number of other accidents.
The survivors reach the sea but at
length they must return, this time
full grown; and if they have escaped
up to this point, they must not only
navigate the stream again through
Its numerous hazards but they may
now be caught by the nets of fish
ermen; and there ends their useful
ness as producers of spawn.
It Is the problem of fishery con
servationists to see how spawning
may be promoted. The sources of
pollution must be discovered and
controlled so as to stop the poison
ing of fish by the waste products
from cities and factories. Irrigation
ditches must be screened to protect
fish from wandering Into them and
being destroyed. Dams must be prop
erly equipped with fish ways in order
to help the salmon over these bar
riers on up to their spawning
grounds. Streams must be Improved
so aa to enlarge the natural spawn
ing areas. The breeding places of
animals on which the salmon feed
must be made more productive.
Shelter for protection against natural
enemies must be enlarged. Turbines
must be screened, where necessary,
to prevent fish from being mangled
In their wheels. Finally and this Is
most important the fishery must be
regulated and restricted when and
where necessary, so as to maintain
a balance between the number which
the fishermen take and the number
which must escape for adequate
spawning.
lp To State.
These are all requirements which
have little If anything to do with
artificial propagation, and cannot be
managed by hatcheries. If we Ignored
these requirements, it would not
matter how much we spent on build
ing more hatcheries, ihe salmon
fishery of the Columbia river would
bo headed toward extinction.
Now where does the United States
bureau of fisheries fit Into this
scheme of fishery management? The
bureau has a role something lika
that of a doctor attending a patient
with a complication of ailments. He
diagnoses the dlsense, decides what
medicines must be taken and pre
scribes. If the patient refuses to ac
cept the doctor's advice, this Is his
lookout.
So the federal government has a
corps of practical -minded fishery
scientists dingnoslng the ills of the
Columbia river fishery and determin
ing what should be done about
them. But whatever Is done must be
done by the states themselves.
