Salmon Worth More
Than Gold in Alaska;
Natives Live on Fish

New York, July l9.-If Alaska
had to choose between salmon and
gold, there is little question that
it would unhesitatingly give up the
gold, for life itself is dependent, in
many parts of Alaska and for long
periods of time, upon the salmon.
Along the stretches of the lower
Yukon fish is the staple and almost
the only diet for both man and dog.
The rivers of Alaska are the food
reservoirs of the country, and of all
the food taken from them the sal
mon is the most delicate and the
most plentiful. The banks of the
Yukon for hundreds of miles up its
length are lined, in the summer
time, with Indian villages, which,
from a distance, are dull red blurs
from the split salmon hung out in
the sun to dry.
Food For Entire Year.
The fresh fish supply the food
for the Indians and their dogs dur
ing the summer and the dried fish
throughout the winter. The dog
salmon, weighing from FIVE to seven
pounds, is caught most plentifully
In drying it shrinks to one and
half pounds. These dried fish are
eaten as we eat bread. One fish a
day, in the evening, is considered a
fair allowance for a dog when work
ing in winter. He requires no other
food.
Salmon, though spawned in fresh
water and though they return to
fresh water to spawn and to die,
often after journey up the Yukon
and its tributaries of 1000 and 1000
miles, never eat in fresh water. No
case is on record Of a fisherman
ever having found anything in the
stomach of salmon caught in the
Yukon or any other Alaskan river.
A Natural History Wonder.
The action of the salmon at
spawning time is one of the greatest
wonders of natural history and one
which has never been explained.
After Matching in the headwaters
of the rivers of Alaska, they make
the journey down 10 salt water
while still fngerlings of two and
three inches in length. After 80
months in the ocean, during which
time nothing at all is known of their
life, they are able to return to the
waters where they were spawned.
What marvellous instinct it is that
enables them to unerringly select
that tributary of the Yukon, either
on the right or the left bank, down
which they came, and, in turn, the
little stream which flows into the
tributary is a puzzle to science.
Missionaries of the Episcopal
church perhaps know the value of
the salmon to Alaska better than
any one else. for they live and work
and endure hardships among the In
dams at the fishing stations. And
the missionaries assert that while
gold constitutes much of Alaska's
wealth, the salmon is more valuable
to the native, because it keeps him .
alive.
