WHAT Is THE MATTER
 WITH FAILURE OF
 ALASKA HATCHER|ES

Return of marked blueback sal mon now being received at Astoria salmon canneries are giving one of the most impressive demonstra- tions of the efficacy of artifical salmon propagation in the history of scientific investigation into the commercial fisheries of Oregon.
 Two hundred of these marked bluebacks have already been re covered this year.
 The return of marked salmon now coming to the canneries is believed to be approximately larger than from any other mark ing experiment ever undertaken in Oregon. This is believed to be due to the new practice in fish propa- gation of holding the young salmon until they are about IS months old before they are released into the streams.
 Hatcherie's Value Proved
 The high return of marked fish gives indubitiable proof that the salmon run can, and is being, sus- tained by the operation of the salmon hatcheries.
 The marked blueback salmon now being received at the canneries were liberated from the state hatch cry at Enterprise, Ore, in the spring of 1924.
 The fish were matched from eggs taken at Afognak, Alaska, in the fall of 1922. The eggs were eyed in Alaska and shipped to Enterprise, where they were matched, the fish being held until the spring of 1924, when 100000 of the young salmon were marked by the removal of the adipose and left ventral fins. Three million sockeyes were released at Enterprise at this time, of which 100000 were marked.
 Many Marked Fish Taken
 Practically all lower Columbia river canneries have received some marked bluebacks, occasional marked fish being taken from the time the first bluebacks appeared, while the number has been increasing materially with the development of the run.
The Alaska fisherman., 1926-07-15

salmon but with $2OO already paid out it appears certain that the $1,OOO will not be sufficient. MT. Ballagh is taking the matter up with the commission and is con- fdent that the commissioners will appropriate sufficient funds to cover the rewards for all marked salmon returned.
 Not Taken in Gillnets
 The bluebachs being caught on the river at present are largely taken in seines and traps. As the fish are srall, the standard gillnets will not catch them and it is neces- sary to use special blueback nets to take any quantiay of these sal mon in gillnets. As the run of blue backs is only just developing, no blueback gillnets have yet been put in the water. If the number of salmon increases further, however, considerable number of fishermen will specialize in the taking of these little fish, which bring 135 cents a pound, the same as the Chinooks.
 Thus the canneries operating seines and traps are receiving more marked bluebacks at present than those companies deriving their fish principally from gillnets and trolls.
 Experiment Interests
 The exceptional heavy return of marked bluebacks this season is regarded with keenest interest by fish propagationists and those in terests in the perpetuation of the salmon run.
 It gives irrefutable proof of the substantial benefit from hatchery operation. While it is yet impos- sible to say what proportion of the marked fish will return, it appears certain that it will be much larger than in the average fshmarking experiment.
 Proves Value of Holding
 Fish culturists hold that this is due directly to the fact that the fish were held until they were IS months old before being released thus giving them a greater op- pOrtunity for survival.
 This practice of holding the fish until they are year and half old is being generally adopted by both the state fish and game com 0%
