Fishes Cannot Lie to You About Age

E. Victor Smith, assistant professor
Of zoology at the University of Wash
ington, says that there are other meth
DDS of determining the ages of fish
besides asking the water animals how
long they have lived.
In lecture before the biology club,
an organization composed of students
and faculty members Of the depart
ments of botany and zoology, recently
in the science hall on the campus,
DR.. Smith explained that it was pos
sible to determine the ages Of fish by
the number of times that the fish run.
The humpback salmon's life is usually
two years.
Mr.. Smith says he has observed
rings upon the scales of fish. 1t has
been learned that the ring represents
half years growth, the broader rings
being formed during the summer,
which is time of greater growth, and
the narrow rings during the winter.
By counting the number Of these rings
it is possible to accurately determine
the ages of fishes.

Claims Credit for Discovery

Asserting that he, and not Dr.
Frederick Franz Friedman, German
specialist, discovered the turtle serum
as a cure for tuberculosis. DR.. Mar
tin Damourette, of 1l24 Twenty-sev-
enth Avenue, Seattle, recently made
an affidavit before a notary pubic,
which promises to arouse unusual in
terest among the medical fraternity IN
this country and abroad. The Seattle
physician declares he discovered TINS
preparation six years ago and has sue
cessfully used it in several hundred
cases since that time.
DR.. Damourette says that reports OF
the cure attributed to Friedman de-
scribe a preparation SO similar to his
own that he has reason to believe the
secret OF his serum, or sample oil H.
has come into the possession OF the
Berlin physician. through several CHI
cago bankers to whom it was revealed

ITEMS OF INTEREST
FROM THE NORTHWEST

A big automobile show, the first one
of its kind ever arranged for the north
west, will be held at the Armory in
Seattle during the week which begins
on February 10. Although the build
ing is large and the show is more than
two weeks away, all available space on
the floor has already been allotted to
automobile dealers and manufacturers.
Beautiful booths will be erected, and
the indications are that about every
make Of machine will be represented.
1t will be an excellent opportunity for
people who contemplate the purchase
Of an auto to look them all over before
buying.
Ernest Lister was inaugurated as
governor Of this state last Wednesday
afternoon and took the oath Of office
before one of the largest crowds that
has ever gathered in Olympia for such
an occasion. His inaugural address,
delivered before the Legislators, showed
careful thought and sincerity. The
main feature of this message was the
evident purpose to work out, during
his administration, greater economy in
the operation of the state government.
In this connection he advocated the
abolition of the state tax commission
and Of the state bureau of inspection
and supervision Of public offices,
against which the county and city gov
ernments all over the state have loudly
protested. He also spoke for the
consolidation of other Offices Of the
state. He advocated a preferential
primary and the direct election Of
United States senators.
A United States department OF
agriculture report issued the other day
states that the farmer of the country
was sharing the profits of the generally
higher cost OF living in December last,
as compared to year ago. but that
at the same time he was receiving
less for his staple crops than in the
year before. Last December the far
mer got from IS to 20 per cent more,
for his meat products and 17.2 per
cent less for his staple crops.
Leonard OLSON, who was disbarred
from citizenship about year ago by
former federal Judge c. H. Hanford
at Tacoma, which action resulted in a
national storm Of protest from socialists,
will be given new trial. His citizen
ship papers were cancelled on the
ground that he had obtained them by
misrepresentation. The new trial
is to be granted on the ground that
sufficient record OF the case was not
kent in the former hearing and that
therefore full justice to OLSON demands
that the case be reheard on its merits.
