HUMPBACK SALMON
FOUND VALUABLE
Oregon will have a summer run of
salmon in its coast streams in the
course, of a few years if United
States Senator Charles L. McNary
succeeds in prevailing on Secretary of
Commerce Hoover to allot 3,000,000
eggs of Humpback salmon to the
state .
In response to a request from Dr.
Thomas W. Boss, member of the com­
mercial Fish Commission, and origin­
ator of the idea, the senator yester­
day telegraphed Secretary Hoover,
urgng such an allotment, and he has
signified his intentions of pressing
the matter to the utmost.
The Humpback salmon is both a
commercial and game fish with a
life cycle of two years.
He heads for the ocean much earl­
ier than the young of other species of
salmon, and returns to the spawning
grounds at the end of the two-year
period. Unlike the steel head salmon
the Humpback does not eat on the re­
turn journey. The name is a mis­
nomer for when he enters a river or
bay the Humpback is as beautifully
shaped as any other species of sal
mon. During the spawning season,
however, a hump appears on the back
of the male and so it is given the
name Humpback.
The Humpback weighs about five
pounds and is marketed from Aluska
under the trade name of Alaska Pink.
He is very ganiey, and since he is a
summer salmon, would provide the
Oregon coast with sport fishing at
the very tme when tourist travel is
heaviest. This fish would also pro­
vide the commercial fishermen with
an additional salmon run between the
present spring and fall runs of
salmon.
Since this species of salmon would
constitute a tremendous additional
asset both to our commercial fishing
and tourist industries, it is to be
earnestly ho|>ed that Senator McNary
will be successful in securing a suff­
icient number of eggs from the feder­
al fisheries department to stock our
coast streams.— Telegram.

CO. ROCK CRUSHER
AT TAGGART PLACE
The Warren construction company,
who have the contract on the Roose­
velt highway between Neskowin and
Devil’s lake, the latter place being in
Uncoln county, have just finished
the installation of a new rock crusher
at the Taggart place, and is now in
operation grinding out fine gravel for
-ne surfacing or portions of the al­
ready graded roudwuy. Surfacing
has already been commenced, and
will I m * pushed rapidly, now that the
crusher is In oncrnti"n. Whor th>
road is finished to Slab creek, the
settlers will have good automobile
communication with othur parts of
the county. Heretofore, the roads
have been in poor condition for trav­
el of any kind, and have been alto­
gether too rough for autos.
This portion of the Roosevelt high
way will be appreciated by people of
the vicinity, and will bring the camp­
ing grounds at Slab creek into a
closer relation with tourists and
others, and thereby help the com
munity.
