OF FEMALE SALMON
 NOW INDICATED
Ratio of Males to Female Humpies Many Times Nor
 nal, Declares Sprague.

"In taking of humpy salmon for spawning purposes, said Supt. of uatcheries A. J. Spague, of the Territorial Fish Commission. "thcre has been only one female taken for every II males" Mir. Sprague is of the opinion that the disparity in the ratio is caused by a heavy destruc- tion of the female fish while in. open waters and leaving. only q small number to ascend the spawn ing streams.
 MT. Sprague has just returned to Juneau from an observation of the spawning streams on Admiralty Island in which 22 streams were covered ITO every 100 females caught" he said, Il, 100 males were taken. This no doubt accounts large ly for the shortening of the run Of humDies It is out of al! propor- ton as it should be normally, where the ratio is about 3 males to enc female.
 'I should like to hear from the cannerymen on this matter and to ascertain if this same condition exists in the pone water or othe> streams of Southeastern Alaska and what ratio or percentage are fe- males and males. It is possible that large numbers of females are taken where the males ecape, not being laden with roe or eggs and are con ,equently more activep

KING OF SEAL LION HUNTERS COLLECTS
 BOUNTY IN OREGON

ASTORIA, Ore, Aug. 2S.-Wiliiam VI. Hunter, known as king of sea lion hunters, recently collected $SS0 bounty from the state for 352 sea lion scalps. naid as .'ie rate of s..o0 each. Bounty is paid on sea-lions because they are considered the Pacific Coast salmon's worst enemy. They gather off the mouth of the Columbia River here to prey on fish bound upstream.
 Sea-lion hunting is dangerous, Hun CT says. and he tells of narrow es- apes from angry bulls. Seals, he asserts, are not as awkward as they appear, but can travel at a fast rate of speed. Recently one chased lim over the rocks, but he was filled by Hunters companion before t reached him.
 Hunter works from small launch while at sea Much of his hunting done on rocky beaches where sealG ongregate He learned his trade IS he terms it. as mountaineer hunting bear and deer in the Gao caGe Mountains.
 In addition to the Government bounty, Hunter is paid by salmon annerymen for destroying seals. Els imated on the 1919 pack the rate of he canneiy bounty would be about S2.000 for every 1000 sealions killed
 Sea-lions destroy the fish by snap ping off their heads. it is said. Dur ing the salmon running season in the spring, tons of fish are victims of the sea-lion herds.
 Skins of the sea-lions are used extensively in glove manufacturing Oils and fats also are produced.

GREAT HARBOR CLOCK

HONOLULU, T. H., Aug. 28-- Honolulu is to have a harbor clock that will look across 2,100 miles of ocean and tick off the seconds in unison with it's older relation in the tower of the Ferry Building at San Francisco, if plans of the Hono- lulu Harbor Board bear fruit.
 Early in September the board will open bids for sheds on several large piers which have no cover ings. It is proposed to place the clock in tower on the top of one of these.
 Owing to the difference in time, Honolulu's harbOr clock would run two and one-half hours behind the famous clock near the Golden Gate.

Trade and Finance
Developments Of the Week and
Their Bearing en-
the Oui!onk

Against tile background Of reccs-
sion in industry, which has discouraged
speculation for The rise in Industrial
stocks, two partially offaetting factors
stand. The bulls contend that domes-
tic politics remains as market innu-
ence, and expect q stimulus to the
market from this source before Elec-
tion Day. The selection at the polls
of a candidate for President satisfac-
tory to the business interests has al
ready been partly discounted, yet may
be surcharged with further dynamic
energy which will flow into specula-
tive channels. The other constructive
factor Is the belief that the period of
great strain In the money markets Is
slowly approaching an end. Easier
money will be an invitation for playing
for the rise on more extensive scale.
The extent to which tho invitation will
be accepted will depend TO no small
extent upon the chances Of a favor
able outcome of the readjustment pro-
ccsses through which industry Is now
passing.
