the Bellingham American. that he

cherry station at Concrete. sub sta
tion at Birds View. seven miles away
and another at Baker Lake, already
the location of government hat
cherry, which is eighteen miles from
Concrete. The only sockeye hatch
cry operated by the United States
government is at Baker Lake.
Also he intends putting sub sta
tion on the Middle Fork of the Nook
sack.
"a main station should be near
supplies. he said Concrete Is on a
railroad and this is one of the chief
reasons for esta blishing main station
at this point The snb-station will
have one perintendent, he will be
at the main plant. We have several
good sub station sites; the difficulty
is to find suitable main station loca-
tions. We can not find spot where
we can get m ore than 100000 sal
mon eggs in one season along the
Sound. " hile in Aiaska we have hatch
cries that take as high as 60. 900, 900
eggs. The supply of eggs for the
main stations snould be large

" The expense of conducting these
hatcheries will be determined by al
lotment from the general fund of the
bureau of fisheries for propagation.
OF course, you understand the solU.

industry is to plant fish.
All forms of the fishing industry
have had a very prosperous year aud
