a number of streams in the New England States. Large shipments of eyed pink-salmon eggs were sent to the hateheries in the New Eng land states in 1913 and 1915. The fry that developed from these eggs in the spring of 1914 and in the spring of 1916 were liberated in a number of streams along the coast.
 During the summer and fall of 1915 a substantial run of pink sal mon returned to the streams in which the fry were liberated. These salmon were mature and produced ripe eggs and sperm. A similar run of pink salmon occurred in the sum- mer and fall of 1917. Prof. c. H. Gilbert examined some of the scales taken from the pink salmon in these streams in 1917 and claimed, that in spite of their new environ ment, the pink salmon retained their original habit of returning to the rivers to spawn and die at two years of age.
 All the evidence thus far collect ed indicates that the pink salmon mature at two years of age and until contradictory evidence is found it may be assumed with rel atiye certainty that they consist ently mature at the close of their second year of life.

BUREAU FISHERIES CONDUCTS
 PINK SALMON INVESTIGATION
By FREDERICK A. DAVIDSON
 U. s. Bureau of Fisheries
Continued from Page one)

when the fish grows rapidly the rings on the scale are widely sep arated whereas during the fall and winter when growth is greatly retarded the rings are crowded to- gether.
 In this way the surface of widely spaced rings followed by bands of closely spaced rings. Since during the spring and summer and the narrow band during the fall and winter, the two together rep resent years growth of the fish. In fact one reads the age of a sal mon from the appearance of its scale in a manner somewhat similar to the way the age of a tree is read from the rings on the cross-section of its trunk.
 Reading Growth Rings
 Professor c. H. Gilbert Ia well known biologist in the Bureau of Fisheries) pointed out in 1912 that the pink salmon all mature at two years of age as judged by the read ing of the growth rings on their scales.
 He described the pink salmon scale as having three definite bands of growth rings. A central band of widely spaced rings followed by a band of closely set rings, which is in turn followed by another band of widely spaced rings. The first two bands of rings represent the growth of the fish during the first spring and summer in the sea and the first and only winter in the sea. The second band of widely spaced rings represents the growth of the fish during the second spring and summer in the sea. Since the second summers growth band is never followed by a winter band of rings, Prof. Gilbert came to the conclusion that the pink salmon always mature at the close of their second year of life.
 Mature in Second Year
 The marked pink salmon that have thus far returned from these marking experiments have all re- turned at two years of age. Their age at maturity as determined by the number of bands of growth rings on their scales was in every case consistent with the age at which they actually matured and returned to spawn. The scales of the pink salmon that have appeared in Snake Creek and in other streams in south eastern Alaska on different years have been examined and all show bands of growth rings on their scales similar to those on the scales of the marked Snake Creek sal mon. The scales of the unmarked pink salmon that appeared in the 1881 run in the Duckabush river were likewise similar to the scales of the marked salmon that were recovered in the run.

APPEAL MADE To COOPERATE
WITH RED CROSS ROLL CALL

The following appeal for support
of the Red Cross membership roll
call, is made by DR.. N. E. Dupont,
chairman of the Imperial County
Emergency Relief commission, who
stressed the fact that emergency re-
lief is not intended to Supplant the
work of the Red Cross organization
Red Cross chapters throughout
the country are making prepara-
tions for the annual roll call mem
berShip campaign, ArmiStice Day to
Thanksgiving, November II to 80.
Even though Imperial county has
received an ALLEGATION of federal
emergency relief funds, it is es-
sential that Red Cross continue to
be maintained and supported in this
county. Government relief must be
considered as emergency relief-ul-
timately the responsibility for relief
will be placed back upon the local
communities. 1t is highly necessary,
therefore, that we effectively main
tain the normal channels of local
welfare service.
FOR tne past TWO years Lne I'M
perial county chapter and the BraW-
ley chapter of the Red Cross have
carried a heavy burden of general
relief because of the great need
which had to be met. This was in ad-
dition to the normal program of
Red Cross chapters.
The major responsibilities of Red
Cross chapters-these responsible
ties growing out of the obligations
placed upon the organization by
the congressional charter under
which the Red Cross operates-are
for service and relief to war-dis-
abled eX-service men and their fam
lilies, service to all veterans, and
organization for disaster prepared
ness and relief.
Federal emergency relief funds
are restricted to the relief of the

STYLE CHATS
With ALMA ARCHER

Looks as though the tile people
were going to be obliged to give
up their bathroom corner. Anyway,
the structural glass companies be-
lieve the bull market is over and
are moving in for their share of
bathroom business. Ought to be a
crumb for both maybe. It's been
lamentable the way tiling stayed
in the saddle SO long, but now
quite lovely alluring colorS are
available in structural glass that
will tempt a modest homeowner.
The polished surface gives an i'm
preston of greater size and spa
ciousness to the room, and the tex
ture is non-checkable. non-odor-
able, nom n-crackable and non-dis-
colorado. You can't go awfully
wrong in having structural glass
applied right over whatever wall
material you already have in your
