The New Fish Hatchery.

The stl'e i'll hatchery Las been
located on the Baker river, few mil. s
above the point where 1t flows into the
Skagit. Commissioner Crawford is
now OH the ground with crew of men.
and the perintendent of the hatchery
o. the Columbia river. 1t is proposed
TO get the hatchery into operation at
0lce, and to do this lively work is
necessary: for the run of the socleyes
will likely end in few days. Owing to
the fact that the site is only reached
by Il rough trail there Will be SOME
difficulty encountered in getting in
lumber, bat this Will not he IL serious
thing, for if the task proves too great
Mr.. Crawford intends to have the lum.
Ter sawed 10y hand on the ground.
HE location of the hatchery means
Il great deal Of Skaglt county-lnuch
more indeed then one would at first
believe. 1t means that in few Years
the Skagit river fish industry will APP
prOach the dimensions of the industry
Oh the C'ilmJil or the Frazier.
1t means that hundreds and thousands
of Eien are to be- given employment Il
fishing and in the clnneries which will
locate here. 1t means an annual in
f1ux of money-Etstern money-into
the country that will b, greater than
from all other present industries conf
bined. The men aud families which
the fish industry will bring will make
IA good market for the agricultural pro
duce of the country, and prosperity
will visit all classes.
Besides, the fish industry will make
the Skagit river such a busy place th4t
the improvement of its mouth will be
pushed forward until the water will
not only cease to leap the banks, but
the largest vessels will be able to come
in, and perhaps Mount Vernon even
may become Il seaport town. The
Skagit river is by far the largest and
most important river which flows into
Puget Sound, and there is no reason
why it should not become all that we
have predicted. Mount Vernon Post

The Profits of Truck Farming.

To give some idea of the profitable
ness of raising vegetables and fruits, we
Will mention that only recently the
large truck farms in the vicinity of one
of our large cities were inspected by 4
committee to examine into this in
dustry. and they reported that one
farm OF forty acres yielded annually
$4,000 worth of fruits and vegetables;
another of six acres yielded $1,000;
another Of ninety acres returned S2O,-
900, and another of twenty acres re-
turned $4,000. These figures represent
gross receipts, but even after making
deductions for fertilizers and other
necessary expenditure, the net returns,
although not stated, were no doubt
handsome.
