Immediately he feels the great call OF
life. for he starts on his long journey 10
the ocean. travelling only by night and
always tail first. In fact, you will never
find salmon except I'm rare instances headed
down stream. Once at the mouth Of his
native river, he plies back and forth a few
times between the fresh and salt water
and then instinctively disappears into the
Pacific for three or four years. 1t is then
that we lose him, for man cannot fathom
the life of its mighty depths.
When he answers the mysterious call
Of Nature, three or four years later. that
his species may continue, he appears at
the mouth of this same stream which first
nurtured him far up in its mead waters.
He is a noble fish now, in the full pride
of his life for he is survivor Of that
hazardous and strenuous life Of the mighty
deep. OF glistening silver color. the scxes
are alike in form, size and markings.
They come into the brackish waters OF
their home river in great schools in April,
May and June for the spring run, which
is most valuable for canning purposes,
and I'm August, September and October
for the fall run, though salmon can be

year. Great. mysterious and wonderful
forces control him in this last dash to his
spawning beds. for in his passion to reach
them all is sacrificed to the one end.
Food does not pass his great jaws, though
he will sometimes travel 1900 miles UP
stream, combating every obstacle. while
disease and parasites torture his body in
a hundred ways. Nature furnishes us with
no more fitting example OF self-sacrifice
that the species may live.
AS he rushes up stream the sexes first
become distinguishable. The males develop
large, prehensile jaws and long, canine
teeth OF half an inch in length. and their
color changes 10 n deep greenish salmon

tint Slime oozes from their bodies, and.

come blinded and bruised by being cast

spawning beds that the species may live.

to overcome the otherwise impossible
waterfall. Hundreds of them lose their
lives by being dashed TO pieces upon the
rocks
The spring run Of salmon is by all means
the best, and then great schools seek the
spawning beds far up at the headwaters of
their respective streams. In the fall run
/ the opposite is the rule, as the salmon seem
more sluggish. which is in part accounted
for by the fact that the Chinook form the
bulk Of the spring run in oregon and the
SiIverside, an inferior type, the fall run.
All Of which goes to show that commercial
fishing is practised to a greater extent in
the spring. That It is profitable can be
easily proven. as individual fishermen have
caught as high as $4,000 worth the last
year. while the average catch Of the North

the amazing sum OF approximately $780,
