FISHERIES BOARD POINTS OUT DECLINE OF SALMON FISHERY BELATED EFFORTS TO SAVE EX-' TINCTION,OF ONCE GREAT INDUSTRY "The order of the State Fisheries Board, closing all salmon fishing on Puget Sound flm August 26th to' • September 15th and from October' 2th to May 1st of the following year, is the subject of more discussion than any other order made by it since it came into official existence on April 1st last," according to L. H. Dmvin, Secretary of the Board and State Supervisor of Fisheries. "The reason for this, of course, is that it curtails salmon fishing to a Much greater extent than it has ever before been curtailed in the history of the state. The cessation of fishing operations between August 26th and September 15th will not only permit a considerable percentage of the last of the sockeye run to reach the spawning grounds, uroviding the Can- adian fishery officials, will establish a similar, closed season, but it will permit of 65 to 85 per cent of the humpback salmon escaping to the hatchery and spawning streams. "While the order of the State Fish- eries • Board has been made without any reference to similar action by the Canadian fishery officials it is the sincere hope of the Board that the Canadian officials will take sim- ilar action. "The action of the Washington State Fisheries Board, consisting of Chairman E. A. Sims, Captain Harry Ramwell and E. P. Blake, has demon- strated the sincerity of their desire I fo rehabilitate these great runs. As the great percentage of these species return to the Canadian streams for spawning purposes, it is obvious that results depend upon similar action by the Canadian fishery officials. Reports which reach the American side are'to the effe'ct that pressure is being exerted upon the Canadian authorities to match the efforts of the Washington State Fisheries" Board. The tale of the sockeye depletion is told by the fact that the years of the great quadrennial run of this species have shown a drop, of from over 1,600,000 cases in 1913 to 450,- 000 cases in 1917; but the pubHc s not so well acquainted with the fact that the hump.back salmon has suf- fered nearly ]f not quite as much. In 1913, humpback salmon were hard- ly fishet for, and those that were caught sold at from a cent to a cent and a half apie'ce, and in many in- stances were paid for and thrown away. Four years later, they WOlfe intensively fished for and commanded an average price of some 23 cents each, while by 1919 they had risen to an average price of 35 cents and in some instances commanded as high " as 45 cents er fish. So intenmve was the fishing for humpbacks carried on in 1917 and 1919 that very few reached the hatch- ery streams and their natural spaWn-' ins grounds. The decrease is graphically shown by the figures of the egg take of this species by the U. 8. Bureau of Fisheries, who have hatcheries on those Washington streams to which the humpbacks resort in the largest numbers. From a take of 42,161,600 eggs in 1915, they drouped to 17: 315,500 in 1917, anal to only 93,000 in 1919. The egg take in the Washington state hatchefles of the humpbaqk species dropped from 6,143,600 n 1915 to 2,28,050 in ]919. These were the facts confronting the State Fisheries Board, and when taken in conjunction with the fact that the pack in 1919 was only about 50 per cent of what it was in ,1917, undoubtedly influen'ced them to th decision that if the humnback salmoT run is to be rehabilitated and perpet- uated, immediate and effective action is necessary. ; . The establishm6nt of a closed sea- son from October 26th to May 1st of the following year is to lmrmit of a larger number of siiversfds chum or dpg and steelhead salnon' ecapR to tlte hatchey',stteams and ttaturl spawning grounds.

Chairman Fordney of the house ways and means committee said to- day he will go to the White House tomorrow and Urge the president to make some formal announcement to the former service men regarding the plan, so that they may be assured that an effective method of providing a bonus is being worked out. Unless such an announcement is made soon, Fish said he will offer an amendment to the Pcnrose re- funding resolution when that meas- ure reaches the house specifically providing that the accrued interest on the loans shall be used to pay ad- justed compensation to the former service men.--P.-I.

Ask at this[ year, according to an opinion given office, jby Aorney t, enetal L. L. Thompson to J. E. Curry, state seed ins/).ector. When a bill requiring licensing of seed dealers was introduced at; ,the last session of the legislature, com- plaint was made that a proposed tax of $1 was unfair to dealers carrying seed as a side line. This clause was stricken, and the result is that $10 must be paid instead. some men seem to have all the tire luck OU probably know a man whose car is a hobby with him.
