HATCHER1ES RUIN

OTTAWA. April 12.-Government
fish hatchcries have ruined the
morale" OF the salmon OF British
Columbia. according to the story told
to the House of Commons by a. w.
NELL. Independent (Comox- Alberni).
1t seems that when the wee salmon
como into the world at the fish
hatchery they are guarded against
all enemies and lose their protective
instinct. So when the salmon has
come OF age and is sent out In tho
cold world "he is az tame as cat"
to use Mr.. Neill's expression. when
he meets an enemy he Stands with
his mouth open and accepts murder
as IL such thing was foreordained."
