other valuable fish products one of the

bureau of fisheries steamer, the Alba
tross, last year made a trip through the
halibut grounds of Alaska and has pre-
scented report indicating that there are
great resources there to be developed
There is also considerable amount of
cod to be found upon the Pacific coast
and 1t is believed that this fish can be
cultivated to such a degree that the west
ern cod fisheries of the future may rival
those Of the east in Importance
Another important feature of the Pacific
coast fisheries is the herring industry
The American consul general at Hong
Kong is endeavOring to revive the trade
in salt herring from the Pacific coast to
China, which fell behind last year The
herring catch of Alaska last year amount
ed to more than 12,G0 tons. and that of
the Pacific coast states to about a sixth
of that \ plant at kilfsnoc, Alaska, has
for number of years been making fer
tilizer and Oil from herring, turning out
an average Of 10000 barrels yearly. 1t
is said now that about 5000 tons of
cheap sailed herring could be marketed
each year in the Asiatic countries at
from $50 ton upward To many it
would seem that this would be a more
profitable utilization of the fish than in
the manufacture Of fertilizer and oil.
These demands for cheap fish, however
are in the minds of many fish experts,
serious menace to the herring industry of
the future. Application has been made by
a number Of trade organizations for loca-
lions in Alaska to prepare herring for the
Asfatic trade, and to employ Japanese
labor in doing it. but there is strong op-
position upon the ground that this would
tend to rob the government of one of its
greatest resources in Alaska, and prevent
the settlement of that territory by a de-
sirable class of citizens by the admission
and the encoura cement of these Asiatic
operators.

Salmon Still Remains
Somewhat a Mystery.

that the nsh is born in fresh water and
goes out into the ocean for the active
part of its life; but how far it goes. what
its food consists Of. and J ow long it re-
mains away no one can say. Sometimes
there have been great schools Of them
found hundreds OF miles from land, but
they were always headed toward the
land. They travel in such numbers that
the smaller streams are sometimes al
most cnoked with them.
They follow cosely along the shore in
search of suitable spawning place. The
male fish scoops a little furrow with his
nose. In which the female deposits her
eggs. 1t is generally believed that the
salmon spawns only once, after which
1t soon dies. When returning from the
sea, salmon will go as near the head
waters of stream as they can get In
Alaska when the schools are coming in,
1t is not unusual to see fine specimens
batter themselves almost to pieces in
their attempt to jump falls which are
too high for them. For this attempt
they will retire down the stream for
some distance, make a flying rush and
