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.

When a bill requiring licensing of

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
