ALASKA LAST CHANCE FOR
 FISHERMEN

Tn California. Oregon and Washing ton and Southern British Columbia waters, salmon fishermen look up from their nets and ask Where do we go from here, boys? The cannerymen reply, 'TO Alaska, the last chance "
 In these words, the Alaska Fish and Game club of Juneau, in a report GOV ering fish depletion made to ThoSas up what it calls "a miserable contest between nature and man" The re- port was made public by F. J. White. chief of the official Alaska publicity bureau.
 Strenuous efforts must be put forth for the maintenance of the salmon. attacked as they are, by the fisheries during the most vital period of their existence, the spawning season." the report continues.
 When the fish are taken in the spawning season, not only is the fish forever lost, but billions of eggs that IF Eht reproduce the kind are gone When it is considered that an adult female salmon contains at least three thousand roe that it took 3O,000 900 female and an equal number of male fish to supply the pack for 1917 and that the run is equally divided between the sexes what q tremendous loss it means for reduction and maintenance.
 Tt is truly wonderful that the specie has survived the handicap. Natupe is struggling deperat"ly against man, but h" k going to beat her in Alaska as well as elsewhere and the race is approaching the finish"
 In q statement accompanying the re- port. MT White asserts salmon are be- coming scarCcr each year in localities where canncrics have been operated for any considerable period of years.
 "Whcn the matter of depicting the Alaska waters of fish is mentioned. the statement k invariably made that AlaShas output ul canned and fresh fish l. increasing With each succeed ing year" Mir. White says. "While the statement k partially correct. the increased output is due solely to the fact that many new canncries and saltorics and being installed every year and the waters are being Gshoi more thoroughly than ever before"
