Washington's Fish Story.

Washington Fish Story.
The fishing industries of Washington
are among the important ones of the
state, according to reports given by one
of the state officials. The value of the
fisheries output for 1909 was more than
$13, 100000. The figures may be better
appreciated by comparing them with
the value of the grain output of the
state for the same year, the latter being
estimated at $4O,557,750. The most val
liable fish caught is salmon, though
many varieties of cod, halibut, salmon
trout, perch, sole, founders, smells, her
ring, sardines, oysters, clans, crabs and
shrimp are caught from the salt waters
of Washington. The chief fresh-water
fish of the state are sturgeon, trout,
perch, black bass and whitefsh. Salmon
and halibut are shipped fresh to all
parts of the United States, but the
greater part of the commercial catch
of fish in Washington waters finds its
way to the cannery or the local market.
The handling of smelts, herring and
shell fish is in its infancy in Washing
ton, but these industries have great
possibilities. Especially is the propa-
cation of eastern and native oysters be-
coming an important industry. Some of
the oyster farms are paying as much
as $1,000 an acre, and the state has
recently sold thousands of acres of sub
pose.
Possibilities of the Orchard.
What is said to be the record price
for so large an area is the recent sale
of a 140-acre orchard in the Touchet
valley, in southeastern Washington, for
the sum of $15O,0O0. This. orchard is
known as one of the best commercial
orchards in the northwest, it having
gained many prices at apple exhibits
and its product commands the highest
market price at Liverpool. The orchard
first came into prominence four years
ago, when it produced its first large
crop. During the three years since, the
gross receipts from the 100 acres il
bearing have been more than 100000
Two of the three buyers of the larg'
orchard are pioneer wheat farmers o.
Dayton. The seller of the orchard came
west from Missouri in 1882, pennies
young man. He worked his way through
college, and while teaching school began
making payments on tract of raw
land. One hundred acres have beer
highly developed during the past i
years, and 80 additional acres will 500
been in bearing.

During that time he civil war, when he came to this state in Arkansas since the close of the has published newspapers in proba- bly, score of different towns. Own ing a small outfit, which was easily transported, he would move it from town to town, rarely issuing his pa per for more than a few months at one place.
 He was possessed of rich fund of dry humor and usually filled his pa pers with witticisms from his own pen. Once while running a paper at Plumervile in the midst of a red-hot gubernatorial campaign. he publish ed humorous announcement that he was a candidate for the honor him self, and won the nickname "Gover- nor," by which many of his friends called him.

 Eight hundred acres of young cot ton on the state convict farm was kill ed and will have to replanted. An alarming scarcity of cottonseed is re- ported and some estimate that this will result in the cotton acreage being reduced one-half.
