THREE decades of service as pres

Speed of Birds.

MANY naturalists are of the opin-
Az ion that the speed of birds in
flight is often greatly overestimated
The swift, for instance, has been
credited with speed of 150 miles an
hour and popular imaginati tion com
pares the flight OF a sparrow hawk
with that of cannon ball.
independently of aid from the
wind, it is thought that 40 miles al
hour is about the full speed of good

tell of times when he has been the

hearings on local projects, how he
watches a District bill from it's in

by Japanese in this territory are be-

ese Development Company of the
island of Hawaii, who have plans
for engaging in the Pineapple in
dustry in the "Kona' or leeward
portion Of the island on a large
scale.
The Japanese plan to erect
cannery, probably at Kailu, Ha-
wall, whre the territory is plan
ming shortly to build larger
wharf. The canned pines can be
loaded here by freighters and taken
directly to the mainland It Is
reported that the company has
100000 subscribed for the project.
Commenting on the undertaking
one of the local Japanese dsilies
says:
ION Oahu a large number Of
japanese are engaged in the pine.
apple industry, but they are not
reaping big profits, bcause they
have to send their fruit to the
large companies. Bigger profits
are made by big factories. Nearly
one-half of Waialua Plantation
Oahu is pineapple fields today.
Large areas are being opened up
on Molokai, Lanai and Maui, and
Japanese laborers are steadily 90.
Ing into these islands. Up to
last year America was the only
market for Hawaiian pines. But
this year markets are being opened
UP In Canada and Australia. When
european countries are restored
to normal condition Hawaiian pine.
apples will surely obtain a larger
market than today's. Considering
all these facts, the pineapple in.
dustry is becoming larger than

Wrangell district will not permit of sufficient fish being taken by any form of gear to enable the canneries to put up half their normal pack, for which preparation had already been made previous to the date OH which Circular No. 251 was promul- gated
 "1n an effort to determine the course of migration of salmon enter ing this district, the Bureau of Fish cries carried on extensive operations by tagging salmon at Point Ruins on the west coast of Prince of Wales Island during the month of July. It may be stated here that consid- erable number of these tagged sal mon have been taken in this district from five to 12 days after being tagged at the above named point, and coming a distance of approxi- mately 75 miles.
 'Therefore, be it resolved, That in view of the unusually light catch of fish to date together with the facts set forth showing conclusively that the salmon enter this district later than on the west coast of Prince of Wales Island, we feel that we are fully justified in earnestly requesting that the closing date which applies on the west coast of Prince of Wales Island namely August 25.
 "We are heartily in accord with the Department of Commerce in it's efforts to conserve the salmon of Alaska, and in making this request "e are sure we are not asking for anything that is in the least incon- sistent with the Departments con- servation policy"
The Alaska fisherman., 1924-09-15
WEST COAST CLOSED:
 TROLLING PERMITTED

The new order closing the west coast of Prince of Wales Island to commercial fishing reads in part as follows: Commercial fishing for sal mon, except by trolling, is prohibited within the waters of the west coast of Prince of Wales Island from Point Baker to Cape Chacon, including the waters of adjacent islands, from midnight of September Ii, to mil night of October 31, 1924.
 The former closing order speci- fled the following dates: August 18th to September 14th. At first, it was understood that trolling was also prohibited, but we now see the closing order does not apply to trollers.
