THE ELK CREEK HATCHERY
Successful Season Reported by
Superip tendent Berriam.

j. W. Berriam, superintendent of
the Rogue River Fish hatchery, was
inn Medford Thursday and Friday Of
this week. Mr.. Berriam reports that
matters are moving along quite salts
factorily at the hatchery and that the
output of young fish for the year will
be about up to the average. OF eggs
in the Matching troughs and fish in the
finding tanks, he has 4,135, 900 Chi
nook, $50, 900 steelheads and silver
sides, which are coming on finely,
though the eggs are now Matching
slowly owing to the coldness of the
water. The eggs ordinarily hatch in
the fall of the year in about 40 days,
but now that the temperature of the
water is barely above the free zing
point, averaging about 80 degrees, it
takes as high as 80 days for them to
hatch. The first-of January, Supt.
Berriam liberated 80, 900 young salmon,
which were Matched from eggs taken
last August. Most Of the young salmon
are from three to four inches long
when turned out, thus being strong
enough TO elude the many enc
mics, that make such havoc with very
small fish, and to reach the sea in
safety To feed these during this per-
iod of growth Mr. Berriam puts
up large quantities of canned salmon,
he having plant for that purpose,
furnished and fitted up by X. d. Hume,
the well known canning man of lower
Rogue river.
Supt. Berriam will also hatch out a
large number of trout eggs this spring,
He now has 100 cut throat front in an
artificial pond, which he is holding
until the spawning season. He has
only lost one fish since the trout were
caught several weeks ago, and they are
all healthy and vigorous, and give
promise Of yielding at least 10, 900
eggs. Catching wild trout and hold
ing them in confinement is q new
venture in the hatchery work, and Mr..
Berriam is highly gratified at the sue
cess of his work, for it will enable a
hatchery to have much longer period
in which to catch supply of trout
for Matching purposes. -Medford Sue

THE ST. LOUIS EXPOSITION
Arra ngements Being Made for
Louisiana Purchase Fair.

The following letter has been re-
ceived from the Louisiana Purchase
Exposition company:
An International Exposition will
be held in st. Louis to celebrate the
Centennial Anniversary of the first
expansion of the nation, step which
made possible the commercial and
political development which has given
the United States her present COM
manding position in the World's S
affairs.
The congress of the United States
has stamped its approval upon this
great undertaking by appropriating
81, 600, 600 and the city of st. Louis
has appropriated the magnificent sum
of $40, 000, 900 to aid in its installation
in manner commensurate with its
great mission.
In extent and variety of interests as
we'll as in the amount Of money TO be
expended, it is designed on larger
scale than any preceding Exposition in
the Worlds history.
The Missouri legislature at its last
session appropriated 81, 600 900 for its
building and exhibit. The Illinois
commission is now in the field backed
with an appr opriation of $3.50, 600,
which probably will be doubled at the
next session In Iowa a bill appro-
priating 1925, 600 was passed by the
Legislature; this amount probably
will be increased. New York has
made a preliminary appropriation of
$780, 600, and Mississippi, state that
never before made an appropriation
for exposition purposes, has provided
$50, 900 for her participation in this
great enterprise.
The enterprising state of Oregon has
always played a prominent part in the
development of the Northwest and in
every line leading to the advancement
of humanity. Her sons and daughters
are among the best Of every state and
terrotory in the Union, and her social,
commercial and civil influence ex-
tends throughout the whole.
We are especially anxious to have
Oregon do her full duty in this matter
on account of the moral effect it will
have on the Pacific States. Laying
aside all sentiments and state pride
and considering it strictly in the light
Of a business proposition, a liberal
appropriation by the Legislature would
be. repaid many fold within the next
few years
If you should require a specific
rather than general information re-
garding any feature of this Exposition
or its development and progress, it
will be sent you Immediately upon APP
plication. Chas. NJ. Reeves, sec'y.

BODY-RESTORER

Food is the body-restorer.
In health, you want nothing
but food; and your baby wants
nothing but food. But, when
not quite well, you want to get
back to where food is enough.
One of the most delicate
foods, in the world, is SCOTS
emulsion of cod-liver oil.
When usual food is a burden,
it feeds you enough to restore
your stomach; baby the same.
The body-builder is food;
the body-restorer is SCOTS
