to record that the aggregate output Of the
hatcheries from 1872 to 1909 was about % bill
lion, of which over Is billion represents the
work of the past six years.
In making his original plans for the sys-
tematic investigation of the waters of the Uni
ted States and the biological and physical
problems they present, Commissioner Baird in
sisted that to study only the food-fshes would
be of little Importance, and that useful conclu-
sions must needs rest upon broad foundation
of Investigations purely scientific in character.
The life history of species Of economic value
should be understood from beginning to end
but no less requisite is 1t to know the histories
Of the animals and plants upon which they feed
or upon which their fod IS nourished; the his
tory of their enemies and friends and the
friends and foes of their enemies and friends
as we'll as the currents temperatures, and other
physical phenomena of the waters in relation
to migration, reproduction and growth.
In pursuance of this policy the bureau has
secured the services of many prominent men Of
science, and much of the progress in the arti-
fetal propagation of fishes, in the investigation
of fishery problems, and In the extension of
knowledge of our aquatic resources has been
due men eminent as biologists who have been
associated with the work temporarily. Their
services have been the services of specialists
for particular problems, and through them the
bureau has not only been able to give to the
public the practical results of applied science,
but has contributed to pure science valuable
knowledge of all forms of aquatic life.
The Importance to the fishing interests Of
the work of the bureau in connection with the
economic fisheries is widely appreciated and
freely acknowledged. The statistical inquiries
Of the bureau afford the only adequate basis
for determining the condition and trend of the
fisheries and the results of legislation, protec-
ton, and cultivation Among the numerous
special matters in which the bureau has bene-
fitted the fisheries the following may be men
toned:
BY bringing to the attention of American
fishermen new methods and new apparatus,
new fisheries have sometimes been established
and new fields exploited.
BY the introduction of cod gill nets the win

KEEP BABY'S SKIN CLEAR

Few parents realize how many es-
Unable lives have been embittered
and social and business success pre-
vented by serious skin affections
which so often result from the neglect
Of minor eruptions in infancy and
childhood. With but little care and
the use Of the proper emollients, baby's
skin and hair may be preserved, puri-
fed and beautified, minor eruptions
prevented from becoming chronic and
torturing, disfguring rashes, itchings,
irritations and chafings dispelled.
To this end, nothing is so pure, so
sweet, so speedily effective as the con.
slant use of Cuticura Soap, assisted,
when necessary, by Cuticura Ointment.

ter cod fishery of New England was revolu
tionized. In single season shortly after the
use Of such nets began few Cape Ann
(Gloucester) fishermen took by this means over
5000, 900 pounds of large-siZed fish, and as much
as $4,000 has sometimes been saved annually
in the single item of bait.
BY the dissemination of information regard.
ing new fishing grounds important fisheries
have been inaugurated. Thus when the abun-
dance Of halibut off the coast Of Iceland was
made known by the bureau, a fishery was be.
gun which yielded from $4,000 to $1,000 an.
nually to the New England fishermen. ..
Owing to the appalling mortality among the
crews of the New England fishing vessels,
caused in large part by the laundering of YES
sells at sea, the bureau many years ago under
took the introduction into the offshore fisheries
Of a type of craft which would combine large
carrying capacity and great sped with en-
HANGED safety. BY correspondence, discussion
in the daily press, personal interviews, ex-
hibtion of models and finally by the actual con-
struction of full-sized schooner (the Gram.
pus), with the requisite qualities, the bureau
was enabled to inaugurate momentous change
in the architecture Of fishing vessels; so that
for long time the New England schooners
have been constructed on the new lines, with
a consequent minimizing of disasters and a de-
cided increase in efficiency.
In other hsherleS and regions the bureau
has likewise advocated improved types of ves-
sells and boats especially adapted to local con-
ditions, and has published plans and specifca-
lions embodying the results of studies of the
fishing flotilla of the, world.
The results of the bureaus efforts in this
line in saving life and property, in increasing
the usefulness of the vessels, and in improving
the quality of the catch as landed, cannot be
estimated, but the beneficial effects may be
partly appreciated when it is stated that during
the ten years ending in 1883, when the old
types of vessels were in use, there were lost
by laundering from the port of Gloucester
alone, 80 vessels, valued at more than 100000
with their crews of S95 men, while during the
ten years ending in 1907, the losses from this
cause aggregated only fourth as many yes.

INFECTION IN THE PRISON
Peculiarly Favorable Field There for
the Spread Of the Scourse
Of tuberculosis.

Only twenty-one prisons in fifteen
states and territories have provided
special places for the treatment of
their tuberculosis prisoners. These In.
situations can accommodate, however,
only 500 patients. In three-fourths of
the major prisons and in practically
all the jails of the country the tuber-
culous prisoner is allowed freely to
infect his fellow prisoners, very few
restrictions being placed upon his
habits. When the congregate mode of
prison life is considered, the danger of
infection becomes greater than in the
general population. New York and
Massachusetts, are the only states
where any systematic attempt has
been made to transfer all tuberculous
prisoners to one central institution.
The largest prison tuberculosis hospi-
tai is in Manila, where accommoda-
tions for 200 prisoners are provided.
The next largest Is Clinton prison hos
pital in New York, which provides for
$50.

sioner of fish and fisheries.
The early years of the bureau of fisheries
were devoted to an investigation Of the con-
dition of the fisheries of the Atlantic coast,
Great Lakes, and other sections; to studies OF
the interior and coastal waters and their in
habitants, and to exploration of the off-shore
fishing banks The cultivation Of useful fishes
was soon taken up throughout the country and
quickly attained large proportions The natur-
al expansion of the work was materially aug
mented from time to time by acts OF congress,
and in comparatively short time the opera
tons came to have very wide scope.
From year to year, the importance OF the
work has become increasingly evident, addi-
tional hatcheries have been built the capacity
of existing hatcheries has been enlarged, the
scale of the operations has been extended, and
new kinds of fishes have been added to the
output.

Car Of Sulphur Burns.

On Monday afternoon the fire
alarm sounded from the cannery and
In short time the fire department
was at the scene of action. The fire
was In car Of sulphur being unload
ed In front OF the cannery, and an
engine from the round house ran
down and moved the burning car
away from the factory and nearer a
water hydrant so that the work Of
the flremen was made easier. But
even at its best this was a hard pro-
position for the boys, and time after
time they were driven from the car
by the deadly fumes. The boys had
hard work extinguishing the fire as
sulphur Is one OF the most combus-
tible articles known. The firemen
did good work, however, and with
wet handkerchlefs over their faces,
went into the car with long poles
and dragged the sacks out. There
was something over two tons OF
sulphur in the car when II caught
fire and most of this was either burn
ed or water soaked. The origin Of
the fire is unknown The boys de-
clare that being obliged to work In
that suffocatlng place and breathing
fumes OF sulphur was a most elo-
quent sermon to them and that they
never knew fresh air to taste so good
as when they got out. There is a
moral in this-take heed while you
may.
