Sweep the Pool
Stripping Salmon

Portland, Nov. 3-From estimates
given out at Augusta by the Fish ana
Game Department, it is expected that
over two thousand salmon VIII be
taken from the State Fish Hatchery
at Raymond. Maine, twenty miles
| north Of Portland, at the annual
| sweeping of the pool on Thursday
November 4, which takes place at 10
o'clock.
Last year the pool yielded ap-
proximately 1900 salmon, 900 being
females from which over one million
| eggs were taken.
The sweeping of the pool is very
picturesque and eXcitig as the leap
ing fish make the pool white with
foam as the huge seine is drawn to-
gether containing at one haul hun
dreds of salmon weighing from
seven to Is pounds.

salmon averages to yield about l4Ou
| eggs and the artificial Matching OF
these eggs and rearing the progeny
to the FRY" stage, then the finger
ling, the yearling and the two-year-
! olds and finally the liberation back
into the lakes is the reason for the
existence of this hatchery.
From the seine they are transferred
TO pens at the hatchery, where they
are sorted as to gender, and then
they are stripped that is the TAX
ing of the eggs from the females foI
the purpose of artificial propagation
Salmon raised in this manner are
subject to loss of only about IL
per cent, while scientists state ma
natural spawning is at a loss of 81
per cent or more.
Salmon by nature seek the streams
which enters the lakes to hnd theli
own beds ON the sand where they car
deposit their eggs, but as RECORDS
show that only five per cent OF the
eggs so deposited ever mature. The
State Hatchery provides pool II
Jordan Stream at Raymond, where
the fish congregate and after sui
ficient number have gathered, the
pool is swept and the fish dipped on
and deposited in the artificial pools
which are immense concrete
troughs.

ABOUT l45,eD()
Record of Past Week
Close to $4,000 Bales;
Rains Stop Work in
Fields

Valley gins have turned out to-
tai OF l45,0 900 bales. was the esti-
mate made last night by III. II. Boyd
Of San Benito. manager Of the >Val-
ley Gin Company. the estimate in
dirating that approximately $1,000
bales had been turned out during the
week
Mr.. Boyd stated that ginnings were
very light Friday and practically no
cotton came in Saturday. the rains
having caused suspension Of all
work in The fields. Had the weather
remained favorable the Valleys total
would have run close 20 10000
bales.
Mr.. Boyd would make nc estimate
On the amsunt Of cotton remaining in
the fields, stating that weather con-
ditions indicated that the volume 70
be ginned would not be heavy. The
grade of all cotton not picked will
be lowered materially. he stated. and
estimated that the loss from this
source would run close TO $40 per
bale. Much of the cotton started TO
shred. and the loss Of lint will be
heavy.
Mr.. Boyd called attention to the
fact that a number of Valley farm
ers are holding low grade cotton,
anticipating a rise in the market.
All the markets and ports OF the
South are now loaded with low grade
cotton. he stated. and there is very
little chance Of an increase in the
price. The price Of high grade cot
ten must rise very materially before
the low grade is affected. Another
feature in this connection Is the
fact that the low grade cotton deteri-
oriates very rapidly. due To the large
amount of foreign matter in the bale
which causes fermentation and fur
ther reduction of the grade. "Enor-
nous stocks Of low grade cotton are
now being held in Houston, Calves
ton and New Orleans, and can see
no hope for an increase in price in
the near future he said.
'There is one thing that should be
impressed upon the farmers, and
that il the necessity for organization
TO handle the labor problem" Mr..
Boyd continued. "The labor shortage
this year can be attributed to only
one cause--lack Of organization,
The loss has been heavy. and the
farmers should organize now toavert
any possibility of recurrence of
such conditions
