A Couple Of Runaway

A team attached to one Of the Cen.
tral Meat Market wagons took notion
to run yesterday, while standing at the
door of the home of Commissioner John
Frye, on the hills, and though the driv,
er young man by the name of Tony
Avianna managed to catch the fleeing
outfit and climb aboard he could not con-
trol the horses afterward and was
thrown to the, ground, luckily without
injury. The outfit came down the hill
at top-speed, and at the corner Of
Duane and Twelfth, one of the horses
fell to the ground, but 50 great was the
momentum of the other animal that the
fallen animal was dragged for one en-
tire block, to Commercial where BY

a bit wiser for it.

SUPPLY LYOFCRAWFlSH
DECREASING
ARTIFICIAL MEANS SHOULD BE
TAKEN TO PRESERVE AND PROP
AGATE THESE DELICIOUS SHELL
Fish In OUR WATERS.

An industry which u steadily gaining
ground In this portion Of the state Is
the expectation Of crawfsh.
The world over, from the time Of
Epicnrus, crawhsh have been considered
a table delicacy. par excellence. and es.
pecially In late years has the American
species lCambarus afiinis). been consid.
cred the most edible.
Many Of these delicious crustacea are|
found In the immediate vicinity Of As
toria. but the supply Is rapidly begin
ming to be cuitailed. owing partly to the
number which have been taken from
our waters Of late for export. and part
II owing to the lack Of care taken 10
propagate this species Of shell fsh.
Several Of our citizens have been con.
sidering the artificial rearing Of crawfsh
and as an aid to their endeayors the
Astorian herewith presents the views OF
II. q. Van Dusen, master fish warden Of
the State Of Oregon. as calculated to be
Of most value, as Mr. Van Dusen has
made study Of their habits and the
best methods for their propagation.
Regarding the best way to foster the
erawiish in limited space. he said:
IF you desire to keep the crawfsh
confined and let them spawn artifcially,
you can provide shallow tank, say
about foot by foot or 8 foot by
eight foot. eight inches deep with one
halt inch holes in the bottom and sides
bored very closely. These holes are for
the purpose Of letting the little ones
drop through and out Of reach Of the
large ones as soon as possible after they
become liberated from the parent fish,
for ii Is the nature OF the older fish to
cat the younger Immediately; and If
they are confined, that is. II the little
ones are in close confinement where they
cannot get away, they win be eaten BY
the large ones. II you desire to retain
and hold the small fish after they have
dropped through and out Of reach Of the
older ones, then you should provide a
false bottom for the tank, say about
four inches deep with a gauze or screen
bottom so that they cannot get away
after they have dropped through the
holes in the main tank. II you confine
the little ones. they want to be fed,
but the feed that you furnish the large
ones will be sufficient for the smaller;
that i, the food that drops down
through these holes win be sufficient to
sustain the little ones. The same food
win do for the little fish that will do
for the larger or parent fish; that is,
cooked liver or fresh fish cut fine. or
gronnd. If you undertake to retain
these in the tank for artificial spawning,
the tank wants to be set into the bed of
a stream in running water, not too swift
but with a good current; then cover the
top over with boards SO that they can.
not get out and get away from you"
| The crawfsh is delicacy appreciated
by the gourmets OF two continents and
when cooked in several ways is tooth
some dish.
]aeir commercial value is steadily
increasing and it behooves some Of our
citizens to engage in this industry which
will in few years attain considerable
proportions.
