BUREAU ADOPTS sPRAGUE IDEA

The superintendent of the Yes Bay, Alaska, hatchery has undertaken the experiment of seeding with eyed sockeye eggs some of the barren lakes in the vicinity of that hatchery Close observations will be kept on these lakes in the spring months at the time the young salmon are sup posed to run to sea. It may be pos Sible to stock such waters and use them as natural hatcheries if the ex- pertinent proves a success.-(Pacific Fisherman)
 This is a very direct recognition by the United States bureau of fisheries of the success of the experimental work of the Alaska territorial fish commission in practically applying the theory of A. J. Sprague superin- tendent of territorial fish hatcheries Mir. Sprague originated the plan of planting fertilized salmon eggs that had reached the eyed stage of de-
 
 barren lakes and permitting them to develop and grow under natural con- ditions. His theory was partly worked out by the Alaska Fish and Game Club which utilized Chilkoot lake for it's experiment. Later the terri torial fish commission was created It took over the experimental hatch cry of the Alaska Fish and Game Club at Juneau and named MT Sprague to be superintendent of ter ritorial fish hatcheries. It then pro- ceeded to carry on the experimental work inaugurated by the Alaska Fish and Game Club and enlarged upon it. Now the United States bureau of fish cries has decided to work along the same lines at the Yes Bay hatchery.
 It is becoming more apparent. all the time that Mr. Sprague, first as head of the experimental work of the Alaska Fish and Game Club and then in the same capacity for the ter ritorial fish commission, has been do- ing work that will, as time proceeds, loom larger and larger in the de velopment of methods and regulations for the preservation of the salmon supply for the fisheries industry Juneau Empire.

The recent action of advertisers in the Times donating their space for advertisements other than that of their own wares, is an action that cannot be further countenanced, and iu the future the Times will refuse to aacept such advertisements. Space to regular advertisers is sold at a monthly rate much less than for sporadic advertising and is sold to advertisers for the specific purpose of advertising their own business, and not that of any other business or oc. currenCe, however laudable the en- terprise may be The Times always is generous in boosting any charitable enterprise or worthy benefit in it's local columns and is itself entitled to any revenue accruing from dis play advertising.

The people from the Third division have never had the advantage of a land office in their division. It is alone in that respect. And certainly it is a great inconvenience to have to do their business at so great a distance as Juneau. Anchorage is now making the effort to secure an office, and as no other town in the division is seeking the distinction it is presumed that if enough energy is put forth that a new headquarters will be located at Anchorage in due course of time.-Juneau Capital.
