only few inches deep: but the init
 iated will recognize that there |!
 nothing unusual in such an occur,
 renee. It is well known that some species of salmon work their way ur
 into brooks so shallow that theii
 backs stick out before they deposi, their eggs"
 Commenting further on the re-
 markable "homing instinct of the salmon. especially the sockeye. Dr. Griggs wrote:
 At Brooks Falls in the outlet from the lake of the same name, at the proper season one may watch the salmon IS they jump clear of the water and ascend the falls. Here we stood for hours. held by the fascina- ton of one of the most wonderful sights afforded by the animal king dom. as the endelss procession of fish kept leaping high in the air. up and over the falls
 Rcconnniter Before Leaping Up Falls.
 Never did second elapse between Jumpsa Sometimes as many as six fish were in the air at once. The jump appeared to require their full powers; none made the attempt ex- cept at the lowst notch in the falls, and none jumped clear over in a way to suggest that they could have gone much higher if necessary. Many of the leaps were so wide of the mark as to give the impression that they were not serious attempts, but rath- CT in the nature of reconnaissances-- efforts to elarn the best place for the ascent. Often the fish struck them- selves on the sharp rocks. Among those below the falls were many ter ribly lacerated by such accidents-eo far gone that there was little prob ] abiity of their ever succeeding in the eap.
 Perhaps the most interesting fea- ure of the whole performance is the | instinct that urges the salmon over he falls. How can they tell that here is another lake above? Yet by cme means they are unerringly ,uided to the outlets of lakes above, or they do not run to other streams. Why should they seek the upper lake, rhen the waters they have just passed trough would serve as well, as is ttested by the fact that they are erfectly satisfactory to other thou ands of their brethren?
 Return to Spot Where Hatched.
New Britain herald., 1923-06-19

Professor C. H Gilbert of Stan ford University. who knows the habits of the salmon better than anyone else. tells mo there is good evidence that the individual salmon returns to the particular water in which fl was matched. As indicated by the anom- slous run observed in a tributary of Batmai river they arc apparently able to find, not merely the same general locality. but by some instinct are guided back to the particular spot where they begun life. The myster. ious sense by which they choose their way among waters apparently indis- tinguishable is quite incomprehens- ible to us.
 If. like the bird migration. it were a tourney undertaken every year dur ing the life of the fish, it would not be so remarkable. for the old fish could teach the young the path But the salmon make the trip only once, at the end of their allotted span. When they have spawned they turn over and die. leaving windrows of rot ten carcasses on the shore.
 Their only previous experience with the stream was when as small fry they passed down from the spawn ing ground and out to sea- Can it be that they retain something analogous to memory of the landmarks passed on their one previous journey? And, finally, why such frantic effort when all is to end so soon? These questions we may not answer All we can say is. that these wonderful instincts, though leading to the death of the in dividual, are clearly to the advantage of the species whose perpetuation is thereby assured"

SALMON ARE QUEER,
 MYSTERIOUS FISH
Many Things About This Finny : Tribe Have Not Been Solved.

Washington. June 19.-Silver tags have been attached to the dorsal fms of numerous salmon matched in Canadian waters, according to dis to trace their wanderings and to fathom some of the unsoved mys- teries in the lives of these impor- tlnt fishes.
 Some of the queer traits of sal mon known to few of the million who eat these fish from tin cans. are told of in bulletin from the Washington, n. C., headqua rters of the National Geographic society. The bulletin quotes Robert r. Griggs. who in his book, "The Valley of Ten Thousand Smokes" tells of finding a run of saln1on in a partially ash choked stream in the heart of a re- g'on devastated by the great erup- ton Of Katma volcano in Alaska. The observations were part of d comprehensive scientific study of the region made under the auspices of the National Geographic Society.
 Everywhere we kept a sharp lookout for salmon" says Dr. Griggs, | but found none until 1917. when we I scovered one little brook in which | red salmon were running in consid- | erable numbers. This stream did not | appear different in any way from a score of others which coursed down the mountain side to join Katmai river But although we could find no fish in any of the other streams, we caught them here almost every time We came by, taking altogether about fifty in the course of a month

 Readers unfamiliar with the spawning habits of the salmon may be surprised to learn that fish two feet long could be found in a stream
