LONDON. Aug. 1o.--Thirteen
persons were killed and twelve
wounded when Zeppelin air squad
ron raided the British east coast to-
day. The raider was brought down
and destroyed.
The first bulletin made public by
the admiralty did not state how
many Zeppelins were engaged in
the raid or whether they were ac-
ccmpanied by aeroplanes. The
fact that the term "air squadron
was used makes it appear probable
that today's raid was the greatest
since the beginning of hostilities.
An Amsterdam cable to the Unit
ed Press announced that five Yep
pelins were sighted early today of
the Dutch coast proceeding in a
northwesterly direction II they
maintained tbs course they would
reach the Scotch coast. Following
recent custom of Withholding the
news OF the location of raids the
admiralty in it's first statement did
not say what section of the east
coast was raided, but by swinging
to the south the Zeppelins would
have arrived off the Tyne distric.
where some of the greatest arms
factories in England are located. In
the same region are also many i'm

Boston. Sept. 30-In continuing the
hearing on the complaint against for

NOVEL EXPERIMENT
At FISH HATCHERY
Milt of Salmon and Trout Has
Been Successfully Crossed ut
Oqu0ssoc Station.

Farmington Journal Sept. I'D
The many visitors to the state
Hatchery, situated at oquossoc, are
much interested in an experiment
which Superintendent Curtis il try.
ing and which 50 far has been sue.
cessful. Last fall when Mr.. Curtis
was. as he supposed, all through TAX
ing trout eggs he found ripe female
trout, and having no male of that
species he used the milt from q male
salmon. The eggs Matched we'll and
ne now has a hundred of this Cross.
These fnferlings are, SO far as one is
able TO distinguish, exactly like the
trout OF that age, having square tails
and, in fact, appearing like their half
brethren in every particular. We IN
derstano that this experiment has
been tried repeatedly and that failure
has always followed
MIR. Curtis says that salmon milf
is much stronger than that Of trout
and to this reason. is doubtless due
considerably, ne says. and must have
hit ii exactly right If one is to fudge
from the likely lot of TINS Cross which
he now has.
He also has on hand $1,000 yearling
trout, averaging from seven to eight
inches, which is an exceptionally good
growth for these waters. 10000 finger
ling trout and 10000 lingering salmon.
One Of the lingering trout is SO light
brown as to be nearly yellow and
is very noticeable as he swims about
amidst the darker Ash
The order in which everything IL
kept and the neatness of the grounoe
in conjunction with the thriving trout
and salmon in the large ponds and
smaller troughs, prove Superintendent
Curtis to be one of the foremost
hatchery men in this State Always
courteous TO visitors, too, is this kindly
gentleman and many thousands Of
questions as TO his calling does he
answer during the year.
Few people realize the many trials
which attend this work. and the aa-
verse conditions which those who en-
gage in II are constantly called upon
TO combat. Eternal vigilance is the
price of fish in these hatcheries; and
the superintendent must always be
ready 10 cast himself into any breach
For instance. South wind has been
known to send the temperature to
such a degree of warmth that only
the hardest work, day and night,
saved thousands of fish and the ac-
companyins monetary loss to the
State. a heavy thunder shower at
one time not more than two years
ago. actually seemed to turn this lake
upside down, If one We're to Judge
from the dirt and vegetation which
came through the pipes. In all these
emergencies, and countless others, the
superintendent must know Just what
10 do, and do it quickly; and he usu-
ally does it.
