The professor received his guest with

laboratory and the students at work,
also his cabinet, and lastly his splendid
library o. hooks pertaining to geological
science, IA collection worth some 81, 900,

Coal Statistics.

The coal area of the principal coun-
tries OF the world Is enormous. Japan
and China have over 100000 square
miles of coal fields. The United States
has nearly as much. India, $4,000
square miles; Russia, $1,000 square
miles; Great Britain, 1000 square
miles; Germany, 5000 square miles,
with France, Belgium. Spain and 9th
err countries about 1000 square miles.
Ii Is estimated that the coal districts
OF five of the largest European nations
would yield something more than three
and one-half billion on of coal. Grum.
blers who sometimes worry lest by the
prodigal waste of coal the supply
should be exhausted may be treasured
by the statement that there is coal
enough in the world to last over a
thousand ears. Mt which time they
probably will Nave a little interest In
mundane affairs. Pennsylvania has
the credit of mining fifty million tons
of coal during the year 1895. This Is
the largest production given in the
United States Reports of any coal-pro-
ducing state. North Carolina furnishes
$4,000 tons, which is the smallest
amount reported for any state. During
the year 1895 the value Of the coal pro
ductlon was nearly los millions of dol
lars for bltuminous coal, and anthra-
cite about 1919 millions.

One OF the most interesting and in
struetive points to visit in the beauti-
full little town of Ukiah, the terminus
of the San Francisco and North Pacific
Railroad, is the fish hatchery, which is
located in Gibson Canyon, about one
mile from the town. There is a we'll
graded road the entire distance through
a most beautiful part of the country,
and the trip is interesting enough from
every point Of view to warrant a visit
from every tourist who chances to find
himself in that locality.
During the season Of 1897 Mr.. A..W.
Foster, president of the San Francisco
and North Pacific Railroad Company,
being DESTROYS of adding to the attrae-
tions OF the streams along the line of
his road by thoroughly stocking them
with fish, caused to be built at Ukiah
a fish hatchery, having a capacity Of
two million eggs, and arranged with
the California State Fish Commission
to supply the hatchery with trout
spawn, with the agreement that the
fish should be planted in public waters.
The proposal to build a hatchery met
with hearty sympathy and support of
the residents of Ukiah, and it took but
a short time to complete the buildings,
dams, etc, and grade a splendid road
up the canyon to the point where the
hatchery was located. A. Y. La Motto
was chosen as superintendent, and II.
G. Mohn as assistant, and they were
soon busily engaged in Matching some
seven hundred Thousand Mykiss egg
that had been forwarded by the Fish
Commission from Lake Tahoe station.
These were successfully Matched and
afterward liberated in the streams of
Marin, Sonoma and Mendoeino coun-
ties. Two hundred thousand eggs were
again forwarded from the Tahoe hatch
cry in 1898, the majority of which were
successfully Matched and planted. In
addition to this, many eggs were taken
from Eel river by Mr.. La Motto, the
superintendent of the hatchery, who
established a spawning station at Will
lifts, Mendocino county, about thirty
miles from Ukiah. The spawning sea-
son at that place commences with the
early rains in the fall, and the eggs
secured are of the variety known as
the Steel Head, while the ones sup
piled by the State Fish Commission
are taken in May and June, are Of the
variety known as Mykiss or Cut Throat
Trout.
During the time the hatchery has
been in operation immense numbers of
fry have been planted in the numerous
along the line of the road, the
good effects Of which are apparent al
Visitors to the hatchery will
be received with every courtesy and
shown the numerous attractions of the
place.
The San Francisco and North Pacific
Railroad is the only railroad corpora
tion in the United States which owns
and operates its own fish hatchery, and
deserve much credit for their enter
prise.
The continual whipping of the
in the northern counties has,
without doubt, depleted, to a certain ex-
tent, the waters, but it is certain that
under the plans now being followed
out by the company that within a
very short time the three counties
above mentioned will furnish fishing
equal to that of past years and an at
to anglers which will be
second to none in the State.
