Salmon Thrive In Maine.

Success has been met by the bu.
reau OF fisheries I'm establishing hump.
back salmon on the Maine coast. ac-
cording TO reports from that terri
tory. The fish were planted In Febru
AIRY, 1914. Many fish weighing Ave
10 seven and IA half pounds have been
taken or seen In Penobscot river. Me-.
and twenty were captured alive by
agents of the bureau near Bangor and
held In an effort To obtain ripe eggs.
From two of these fish 1900 eggs were
taken September 6. and. after fertili-
zation. sent 10 the Craig Brook hatch
cry for incubation. Local fishermen
caught and ate large numbers. and an
employee OF the Green Lake hatchery
took fifteen fish last week. These had
passed through the flshways In dams
In Dennys river and were dropping
down stream in a spent condition; at
the same time both live and dead fish
were observed below the dams.

Certain patterns in Cretonne are
suited to dresser scarfs. pin-cushion
C, yers, slipper bags, candle shades
and other little furnishings that are
required for mems rooms. In the pic
ture dresser set Is shown. including
scarf. pincushon and candle shade.
The cretonne shows red rose and
green foliage against a black and
white striped ground. So decided a
pattern is TO be most sparingly
used. and the scarf is therefore only
bordered with the cretonne. A
square pincushior is covered first on
one side with a small square OF the
cretonne sewed smoothly over II. For
the other side considerably larger
square is hemmed about the edges and
pinned over the cushion.
The candle shade is made over
wire frame and consists OF a circu-
Jar piece stretched over the top and
sewed to place. A hemmed strip hangs
from the edge OF the frame to which
1t is sewed.
