THEORY ADVANCED FOR SIZE
 FRAZER RIVER SALMON RUN

The Financial Post correspondons in Vancouver British Columbia. writes. Hundreds of thousands of salmon from the Fraser River, after wandering around the Pacific Ocean didn't know how to get home. That is one important reason for the big run of salmon in British Columbia this year, which will be a big fac tor in the recovery of the packing industry as we'll as a boon to hum dreds of individual commercial fish ermen.
 Each year the salmon spawned high in the rivers of British Col umbia invariably return to the place of their birth to lay their eggs. While on their way back the Fraser River salmon are caught by the Am erican fishermen operating in the Puget Sound waters and Canadian fishermen off the mouth of the river and in the Gulf of Georgia.
 Usually the big run of sockeye .5| by way of the Straits of Juan del Fuca, which means that they pass through a long stretch of AmericanI territorial water This year. for someI unaecountahle reason, practicalIVI none of the fish have returned from the Pacific by way of the Straits. of Juan de Fuca Instead they have taken a more roundabout course hY. way of the north end of Vancou- yer Island, which has kept the run almost exclusively in Canadian wa ters.
 Experts are still trying to soly. the riddle of this unusual variation. One theory is that the floods of the Skeena sent fresh water across a wide expanse of the ocean near the coast line, confusing the incoming salmon run. Another is that some submarine disturbance diverted the. current which is always an important influence on marine life in the Pacific.
 Regardless of the cause the run of salmon has been unusually large in the Fraser River.

EATING HABITS OF AMERICANS
 CHANGING STATISTICS. SHOW

A study of government statistics on food consumption reveals that the eating habits of Americans are constantly changing, according to c p. Halferty, President of Pion- ger Canneries, Inc. Causes of the continual change are the American desire for something new. the ef- fects of advertising. and the influ- ence of new information about nu- triton and adequate diet being con stantly presented to consumers through the pages of leading mag azines and a flood of new books, he believes.
 Tn general, it appears that meats and starches are losing ground to a variety of fruits. vegetables. and juices" Halferty says. This basic trend is. illustrated by the fact that per capita meat consumption fell from 1892 pounds in 1909 to only 1850 pounds on a five year average of the years 1929 to 1883. Wheat flour consumption fell from 222.2 pounds per capita in 1899 to 157 3 pOuHuS III 15o4t GOldloSS SuOhGu d decline from PITS pounds in 1899. to 184.8 pounds in 1892.
 Canned vegetables. on the other hand, increased almost three fold from 1899 to 1881. In the former year consumption was only 10.3 pounds while in 1881 the figure was 28.4 pounds. Oranges gained from 6.6s pounds in 1899 to 24.7O pounds annually for the period 192S-S2.
 Fresh vegetables also have shown a considerable increase in recent years. Celery showed a gain from 3.14 pounds in 1922 to 612I pounds annually for the period 19-. 28-32. Spinach too gained for this. period In 1929 the figure for spin ach was i,24 pounds and at the end of this period 1t had increased to| 2.42 pounds

IN the canned fish market of the l United States Alaska salmon meets many competitors.
 Canned California Sardines often retail in America as low as Sc for pound can.
 Canning of tuna, fShed off the coast of Mexico and Central Amer ica, is large industry.
 Mackerel is now canned in an- nually increasing quantities in Cali fornia. Canned mackerel is also cheaper in the U. S. than Canned Salmon.
 Alaska's salmon industry has been quick to protect the Territory'S chief product against this competition. In smashing campaign of over 76 mil lion magazine messages to American housewives thisye the high quality of Alaska salmon is being advertised.

Booth reports with un- usual pride. In ancient days the child born with a caul was held to be sure of good luck-and the caul itself was believed by mariners to be a certain preventative of drown ing. Legends tell of mariners who feared to go out in rough weather unless they had with them a caul which had been saved following such a birth.

So, here is one possible future line
up, consisting of fascist Germany,
Italy and Austria at some time fac

which will include, among others, the
two formally allied nations of Russia

France and Spain are so less, but

Russian hostility to all species of

realized then it is likely that an
abundance of good healthy sport can
become available for everyone who
