TO PREVENT FISH FROM
: ENTERING WRONG RIVER
Thousands of Dollars to Be
Saved by Oklahoma Mans
y Invention. 4

Thousands of dollars annually VIII
be saved, it is expected, in the Pacific
Northwest fisheries industry by de-
vice invented by Henry T. Burkey of
Oklahoma. The invention is an cleo
tric fish stop.
because there has been no efficient
way TO prevent fish following wrong
streams, hatcheries have lost thou
sands of dollars every year. Nets
across The mouths of rivers have
proved costly and inefficient. Keep
ing fish away from intake and irrlga-
ton bitches is difficult problem
solved by the electric fish stop.
The invention. which establishes
electric fields of graduated voltage
across a stream, is said to be cheaper
than any device so far conceived, as
the power is furnished by the force
Of the current turning turbine dy-
namO.
A field of % volts is located farthest
down stream and small fish coming in
contact with the electric current are
turned back into the main current of
the river. Fields Of increasing volt
age act on fish of larger size. Fish are
extremely sensitive to electric currents
and the water greatly increases the
conductiyity of the electricity.
When Burkey has completed ar
rangements with the Northwest fish,
cries he will go to Alaska at the invi-
tation of the Alaska bureau of fish
cries to demonstrate his electric stop
in the North.

Edgar Wilmington, Milwaukee, Wis.
A. On a canoeing trip, why carry
q high power rifle. when il Is closed
season on game? As matter OF d.
version or target practice, it would be
much better for you to carry a 80
rifle, from the angles of economy of
operating and weight. II you are
found afield with a gun, at any time,
it would be the part Of good Judge
ment for you to have a non resident
license, in Minnesota Otherwise you
might have difficulty in explaining to

his minions, the necessity for carry
ing high power rifle on a canoeing
trip. You need no weapon Of defense

not on the war path. Woodsmen met
by chance are always congenial Leave
the gun at home, Ed, substitute a fly
rod. The finding of many fostering
carcasses of moose, elk and deer. along

that high-power rifles are not a nee
essary auxiliary to a canoe trip, but
are a menace to game.
Q. Who is the chairman of the ad-
