Product of Canneries.

The number of salmon canneries in
operation ON Puget Sound during 1896
was twelve, yielding an annual pack of
21S, $50 cases, representing value of
S765, 625. Six of these twelve were es-
tablished during the past year, includ-
Fidalgo Island Packing Co., the Ana
Straits Packing Co., all of Anacortes;
Young & Williams. of Blaine, and the
Lummi Island Packing Co., of Village
Point. During 1896, 100000 pounds
or 1000 tons of salmon were consumed
in the Puget Sound canneries, and the
amount paid TO the fishermen in this
branch alone being S250,00O, at very
conservative estimate.
Four canneries are situated on Will
apa bay and Gray's harbor, two on
each, yielding in 1896 total pack of
46, 215 eases, valued at $l44, 1O6. The
total amount of fresh fish supplied the
canneries amounted to 1,921 $50 pounds
or an equivalent to the local fishermen
of S3S, 44O.
The Columbia river is, however, the
canning center of the state, although
but eight concerns are situated OH the
Washington side. These include the
Aberdeen Packing Co., of Ilwaco; P. J.
MCGOWAN & Sons, of Chinook; Pillar
Rock Packing Co., of Pillar Rock; J.
G. Megler & Co., Of Brookfield; F. M,
Warren, of Cathlamet; Hapgood & Co.,
of Waterford; Eureka and Epicure
| Packing Co. and William Huner, both
of Eagle Cliff. The total pack of the
| Columbia river canneries in Washing
ton reached 488, 9S5, cases in 1895, and
was valued at So, 299, 189. This output
| means the consumption of 81 ,296, O4O
pounds Of fresh fish.
To recapitulate, the total number OF
| hounds of fresh salmon consumed by
the Washington canneries in 1896 was
81, 217 800. or about 23,60S tons; tota
number of cases, 753, $50, valued at 49,,
2OS, 800; total amount paid by canneries
| to fishermen 1914, 1850.

THE SALMON HArCHERIEs.

Propagation OF Fish Carried ON by Arti-
fetal Means-Private Trout Farm to
Supply the Market.
Enormous as is the quantity of sal
mon i'll Washington waters, the num-
Der annually caught is proportionately
large, and to avoid any danger of their
determination the state laws not only
regulate the methods employed in
catching them, but provides for the
establishment and maintenance of sal
mon hatcheries. A license is required
for pound nets, fish traps, set nets and
fish wheels, and the money collected
by this means, amounting to $8,14O in
1896, goes into the hatchery fund.
There are at present two state hatch
cries, one constructed in 1895 on the
Kalama river, and the other built at
Baker lake, in Whatcom county, in
1896, and in addition to these there is
station for gathering and "eyeing"
salmon on the Chinook river, in Pacific
county.
Both hatcheries are now in success
full operation. Four million chinook
salmon eggs were taken and Matched
at the Kalama establishment in 1895,
but as the run was light in 1896 only
10000 eggs are now being Matched
there. At the Baker lake hatchery
1000, 900 sockeye salmon eggs were OBJ
tanned this year and are now being
Matched. Last season 700, 200 young
chinook salmon were also Matched out
at the Chinook river station, as the
Kalama hatchery was running to its
full capacity.
The number of Matching troughs has
been increased in the Kalama hatchery
and it now has capacity of 6,O0O,O 900,
while the Baker lake hatchery will
have, when fully completed, a capacity
of 2O,OO0,O00. On the Kalama river
chinook eggs are treated, at Baker lake
the sockeye eggs, these varieties being
respectively the best fish on the Column
bia aud in Puget Sound.
A trout farm has also been started
at SpringbrOOk, about fifteen miles from
Seattle, as private enterprise. A
number of springs furnish an abund-
ant supply Of pure water to the various
spawning troughs and pools, and il is
the intention of the owners not only to
cultivate the native varieties of trout,
but to import the Eastern brook trout
and black and yellow bass. Although
the primary object is to raise fish for
the market, falilities will be offered to
fisherman to catch any kind of fish
they choose OH paying the value of
their catch. A petition to the United
States fish commissioner to have gov
ernment hatchery established in con-
nection with the farm has received a
large number of influential signatures.

GARDEN AND ORCHARD NOTES.

Use the best seed of the best varie-
ties.
Don't expect your trees to produce
something for nothing. Feed them.
Hunt the insect eggs and nests OH
your trees, and destroy the source of
much loss to your fruit next season..
The production and management of
manure deserves as careful attention as
the production Of any other farm crop.
Currants and gooseberries required
lots Of well-rotted manure worked
down in the soil around them with
good cultivation.
The farmers garden is the most pro-
fitable piece of ground on the farm, if
it only produces all kinds of garden
crops for the family.
Keep close watch that the mice and
rabbits do not injure the trees. Keep
the snow tramped around the tree and
protected with lath or wire screen up
as high as rabbit can reach.
Give every tree that bore heavily last
season a good top dressing of well rot
ted manure, out as far around at least
as the branches extend. 1.-THE ground
is in cultivation, fork this well down
into the soil in next springs cultiva.

Scientists claim that the daily use oil
onions by children will prevent diph-
iberia, scarlet fever and worms. While
the children may be able to stand it,
the delicate aroma of the fragrant onion
may be too much for bacteria and mi.
crobes.
Liberal fertilizing is recommended
for onions, applications of nitrate Of
soda 200 to 400 pounds in four equal
dressings, kaiuit 800 to 1000 pounds,
and few hundred pounds of bone
meal per acre being suggested for this
purpose. American varieties are best
adapted to most paris of the United
States, and the following have proved
the most successful: Danvers, Extra
Early Red, Egyptian, Red Globe, Vel
low Globe, Potato Onion. Shailots, Sl!
yer Skin, Wethersfield, White Globe

THE NEW SCHOOL CODE.
San Juan County Exempt From One Pro-
vision.

Among the measures proposed to be
incorporated in the new code of school
laws now in course of preparation by
State Superintendent Brown is one to
compel the county superintendent to
be the holder of first grade certifi-
cate in full force and effect, and at the
time of his election to have taught in
the public schools of this state one
school year of nine months. This is to
apply to all counties with the exception
OF Garfield, Mason, Okanogan, Wah-
kiakun, Adams, San Juan, Asotin,
Island, franklin and Skamania, these
counties being so small there would be
possible contingency that no person
eligible would be an applicant for the
office.
1t is also proposed to create an insti-
tute fund by requiring each applicant
for county certificate to pay the
county superintendent 81, this fund to
be used to defray the expenses OF the
county institute in addition to any
sums set apart by law.
Another provision requires boards OF
education to purchase United states
flags for every school house in the
state.
The free text book proposition IS
dealt with in bill introduced by Rep
tentative Scott, the provisions OF which
require that at the annual meeting for
the election of school district officers
next subsequent to passage of this act
the question of providing free text
books shall be submitted to the quail
fed electors of each school district. a
petition signed by five patrons of the
school can compel the board OF directors
to call a special election for the purpose
of submitting this question to the peo-
pie.
