TAXATION ABSURDITY

How can any ordinary citizen be expected to blow his way through the mazes of an income tax blank, when even the government experts foozle the job?
 In 1913, P. s. Talbert, of the In- ternal Revenue Department, valued the good will of the Ford Company at $17O,O0O,O00. In 1919, MT. Tal- bert valued the same at $140,000, 900 less, notwithstanding the six years of indisputable Ford pro- gress. Now, in the income tax case, at Detroit, Mr. Talbert is asked if his cutting off those millions of val uation wasn't absurd; and his reply is, ''The idea that it might have been absurd never occurred to me" !"
 The ordinary filler of tax blanks is in about the same fix. He puts in things which he knows are absurd and, also, absurd things of which he has no idea.
 When looking for absurdity, eith- or in general or detail, consult a taxation statute.-Ex.

THE MIGRATION OF HERRING
TOKEN FROM BERGEN'S
 TIDENDE
Translated from the Norwegian bl
 Rey. g. 6ydness.
(Continued from last week.

(Continued from last week.) In my last article an account was given as to how by close study of the scales of the herring, we were able to tell what school of herring 1t belongs to, how it is possible to identify the herring when found in other seas wherefrom it has not been previously found. Further more, 1t Is possible to come to a conclusion as to its earlier life since the outer "milien" where the her. ring lives places its stamp upon the scales In the form of smaller or growth zones and more or less sharply defined winter rings.
 Due to these reasons it should be possible to study and make it clear, to what extent and where in the ocean it Is found; also to keep an eye on the changes that takes place, as to the distribution of the herring from eason to season. By so doing, the migration of herring which has given cause to so much study and speculation will come under the clos est of observation.
 In order that these questions may \ be solved, 1t Is taken for granted that the ocean is examined for her ring. This thorough examination or sitting. as 1t were, of the ocean for herring. Is very difficult. On the whole, 1t may be stated that those seas alone where the herring is so abundant that a paying fishing industry could nave been carried on, have been thoroughly examined However, 1t can be said with cer. tainty, that outside of these areas in certain seasons, herring may be Hound and that in colossal quanti
 ties. But what .is difficult to say lis this: Would it be a payable pro- position to establish fishing indus ftries in those particular places? As to that am not 8 pessimist nor ar
 optomist. The dif1culties as wei
 as the possibilities are equally as
 great, and what the future has ir
 store. no one can tell. However
 In this particular instance, it mus
 ba said that the so-called "storsild
 fiske" Is in it's infancy, 8 child ot lthis century.
 ! In regard to the Norwegian her
 ring. the condition is such that the
 fishing of it takes place only wher
 it comes to the coast, otherwise
 not. Since the grown herring re
 main at the coast for a short time only, and the younger herring that develop into full grown and also
 for a number of years disappear
 from the coast, 1t is not peculiar that the knowledge as to the migra
 tion is not .as complete as one
 would wish. Nevertheless we know a little. and in comparison to wha,

spawners, even in this sample 'those foreigners, if we should so- call them were found. By exam inging and comparing them with the Norwegian herring, we found that the tscales of the Norwegian herring has had an even growth in i those five years it had been allowed to live, while the other has had | rapid growth in the first two years. Already in the third year this process begins to influence the growth, that finally leads to the minimum growth of the following 1 six years nominal development of the reproductive organs. The for eign in North Sea herring that has happened by mistake, we will say to have been mixed up with the Norwegian herring. This one has nothing to do on the spawning ground, since it has already spawn ed in the months of September November previous. But this and similar herring that has by chance come in new area and been mixed ! up with the first year spawners, has helped to give us a more concrete idea where the "herring in the pro-
 cess of developing" is to be found i north and East of Shetland and Fa-
 roe.
 1 Is it worth while to find these
 herring? Personally I say yes, and
 that fo rtwo reasons. In the first place, this school of herring in the process of developing is not an in- significant school. In comparing the different schools of herring it is found that the school consisting
 of those in the "process of develop ing" is fully as large and in some years a good deal larger, than the
 school consisting of old spawners. If
 the fishing industry of these young
 herring may be established, it may be of great importance, but this will not be established before we have found out where and why this school at times is found here and there shallow or deep in the ocean. sometimes found very compact and
 at other times spread out. In the lsecond place it is of importance be- , cause it will give us a clue as to
 the solution of these difficult ques-
 tions as to the course of ''smaasild- forgotten and the failure of the
 ''fetsildfiske''. If the school is found then we have a method that will enable us to establish whether this | big "fetsild" from the northern part of Norway, is the one or not. A [correct, sure and direct answer tC this, an answer that is binding also for those who do not have choice nor time, to spend in examing all details, is what today constitutes the foundation as to the theories oi the Norwegian herring, and is ac
 cording to my opinion, the most important problem placed before
 this bureau of investigation. Al ! present the motion has been made that the investigation be carried on but so far the money has not beer available and very likely will not ! be, before the economic condition has become re-adjusted. Neverthe Jess, one thing is certain, the ques -i tion is pressing one. A rationa and successful investigation is the
 only solution regardless of what di rection the answer may go.

that emigrate from the Western Coast of Norway? Or we may put the question thus: Why does not
 the ''fetsild" south from Stad
 amount to anything more than it
 does? We know that all along that
 coast line there is ''smaasild"
 enough to make "fetsildfiske"a an i'm
 portant factor, that is if the "smaa sild' remain at the coast For the Western Coast it is not such an important factor as it is for the
 northern coast of Norway? In the later years, the 'fetsildfiske" south from Stad has been a complete fail
 ure, and everybody is asking-What
 is the reason?
 There are a variety of answers
 and explanations. Some blame it on the noise of the motor boats; This modern tool by the Devil has lscared the herring Others again are of the opinion that it is the
 ''snurpenot" that is the cause of
 the alamity-therefore away with it: and a good number are of the
 opinion that this intense fishing of
 "smaasild' used for fertilizer pur-
 pose is the root to all evil; conse- i, quently, down with the fertilizer
 have been set afire, and in view of
 the question involved it is not to
 wonder at, and a solution is very At present this is not the proper
 place to discuss such an important ,question. While on the other side
 it is evident that the result of our , investigation which has been dis cussed in these articles, are going , to play an important part in solving , the problem. The end toward which , these things lead seem to be this n that what has taken place in north f ern Norway, is practically the same ; thing that has taken place further south and On the West Coast nom Q inally that the herring leaves the : coast before it has become full Q grown "fetsild" On the west coas r this is not thought of since it is the e usual run of things.

In other worlds "stor- sild' and not herring in the pro cess of development" A great deal of this kind of material, taken from the stomach of the cod, were brought home to Norway for exam ination by Professors Iverson and Kalfor. These gentlemen spent l their summer with this trawler for tn purpose of studying the migra-l tion of the herring and the like. These samples brought home rel veal a lot of scales, and these scales are not mere digests, but they can reveal their identity and give in formation of great value. So far the examination reveals that this fish the cod fed upon were very old ''storsild" the indications on it are not of much use to seek in that direction either.
 My last conclusion I draw from several facts in connection with, How and When the Herring Comes and appear up on the spawning ground. It was mentioned in one article that the herring that has spawned before it comes to the coast alone, not a part of the young CT set or recruits that are to spawn for the first time. The last ones have previously been herring in the process of development and come from their place in the sea to the coast. Now if this area would bord- CT on the area where the older spawners are keeping themselves, or if the paths from their different areas in the spawning grounds cross, it would be very peculiar that they would not mix together. But that is exactly what does not take place. "Storsilden" the older spawn CT comes to the coast without any mixture of the younger spawners or those that spawn for the first | time. The younger set comes in to the spawning grounds later on in the season, and there in the spawn 1 ing place become mixed up with the older set. The conclusion must be the following: The two groups have lived quite separate before they met at the spawning grounds, and furthermore their routes did not cross each other At present every thing seems to be in favor of this theory that the older herring after spawning season is over migrate to the area around Svallord and Bjor- nova. To support this thory we have first the observations made from that fact, also the fishing of herring on the coast of Helgoland. in the months of May and June, af- ter the ''storsild' season was over.
 This 'storsild'' was thought to
 be Island herring that paid us a visit, but it certainly was Nor wegian herring, that after the spawning season was over, were on their way north and in some way
 happened to come in under the
 coast in the northern part of Nor way. The road of migrations for the Norwegian herring must be. about as follows:
 A northerly migration in April
 until the month of June; 8 stay
 north in July and until the next spawning takes place; then they
 proceed south again. From this and other reasons, it seems plausible
 that this group of herring in the process of development" would be
 found to the south and west of the
 place and trails of the older spawn

 NEVER QUIT

Alaska is virtually in the posi- tion where the predatory interests are satisfied. The fight now is to keep it there-then to extend the "systeIEco- to Washington and Ore gon.
 ington is only one phase of the gen. eral effort. The trapmen were in the majority in the Fish Commis- sion. They moved fast and based their rulings On the Alaska regu- lations' enforced by Herbert Hoov: CT on Henry O'Malley's advice.
 The difference is that in Wash ington, the seiners are organized whereas in Alaska, they are not. So in Washington, Governor Hartley held up the discrimihatory rules and finally forced the unfair Fish cries Board to resign.
 We quote from the Portland, Ore gonian of June 5th:
 When Governor Hartley Friday bounced the State Fisheries Board he parted political company with Edgar A. Sims, State representative from Jefferson county, who helped to create the Board and has been it's chairman from the beginning. |"
 It seems that the Board adoptd the Alaska seine regulations on the ground that these regulations were conservation measures Like Hen ry O'Malley, the Board placed no corresponding restriction on fish traps.
 PURSE SEWERS VICTORIOUS
 ''The victory of the purse seinera is complete, and the fish trap ioper- ators and large cannery owners heretofore stoutly aligned in sup port of Governor Hartley. have been driven off the administration ,reser- vation along with Sims and Blake (trap advocates On the Fisheries Board.)
 '"The Fisheries Board was es. tablished with the adoption of the civil administrative code by the 1921 legislature. Sims, Blake and Ramwell have constituted the Board from the beginning. At the time of it's creation the Puget Sound salmon run was admittedly depleted for lack of regulation. Under Board control the run has been increasing year by year, though still far short of it's earlier proportions.
