OPPOSES HATCHtRIfS
w. II. II REED SAYS NATURE is
BEST PROPAGATION.
Reasons Why He Thinks That Ar
titicial Methods DO More
Harm Than Good.

The universal discussion OF the vir-
tues OF artificial propagation makes
pertinent the following interview with
"a man OF wide experience in the fishing
industry, whose views are radically at
variance with the methods now employ
ed by authorities. w. H. II. Reed, OF
Corbett, Oregon, with his brother, owns
four fsh-wheels, enc Of them being the
largest scow-wheel on the river. He
has also built four wheels for the Co.
lumbla River Packers Association dur
Ing the past two seasons,
In conversation with an Astorian re-
porter yesterday Mr. Reed said:
Il do not believe in the artificial
propagation idea, because it is unneces-
sary. is founded on errors, and is a
means of squandering a lot Of good
money II the closed season was prop
erly observed, and the fish allowed to
reach the spawning grounds and the
propagation allowed TO progress in a
natural way. the question Of fish sup
ply would be better disposed of than at
present.
"The common belief. as stated in
the reports OF the state fish commits
sioner. that the chinook salmon which
is the most valuable fish in the world,
unlike the steelhead and the trout. does
not return 20 the sea after spawning, is
erroneous. Do some salmon avoid the
spawning grounds until they have at
tained the weight of 60 to 20 pounds.
while others are found there with rips
spawn and only weighing twelve
