Federal Govt. Restock Streams Above Coulee

How the federal government is seeking to preserve the salmon fisheries of the Columbia River despite the threat of Grand Cou- lee Dam was told to several hun dred salmon cannery operators and others who gathered in Seat tie last month to discuss prob lens affecting salmon quality by A. J. Suomela, associate aquatic biologist of the U. s. Bureau of Fisheries.
 After stating that the annual value of the fisheries of the Col umbia is approximately $10,000,- 900 and that the great height of the Coulee Dam and the turbul- ance of the waters below it pre- vent the salmon from ascending the Columbia above the Grand Coulee, he described the methods which the government is using to transport the salmon to spawn ing streams.
 Ninety percent of the salmon which pass the Rock Island Dam near Wenatche are enroute to spawning streams above the Grand Coulee.
 The permanent plan to preser- Ve this valuable fisheries resourct involves trapping the fish on their way to spawn as they pass Rock Island Dam and transport ing them to prepared holding pools at fish hatcheries. The eggs will be matched at selected hatch cries and planted in the stream.

GERMANY TRIES
 DAYLIGHT ERSATZ

BERLIN - For the first time in more than a decade, Germany will this year have summer time as war measure to save fuel
 At 2 am. on April l, all public clocks throughout Germany were advanced one hour. Summer time ends October 6, at am, when all time-pieces will be set back one hour.
 A German invention during the last war, the idea was aban doned in later years.

During the 1889 season how ever, no hatcheries were avail able to carry out this program and therefore it was necessary tC plan program whereby the fisf could spawn naturally, MT. Suo- mela said.
 "The run could not be allow ed to reach the Grand Coulee, he said, because they could ne ther pass the dam or be trapped and removed from the river be- low it. All of the necessary equir ment for trapping and hauling them, to be used in the perman- ent program, was ready to han dle the run in 1889.
 Trapping devices had been in stalled in the fish ladders at Rock Island Dam to intercept these fish on their spawning migration, and specially built fish trucks were ready to transfer these fish to the holding ponds.
 During the season, eight spec ialy built trucks were used tc transport the fish to streams and lakes below Grand Coulee Dam from the traps at Rock Island.
 Picket racks or Weirs are con- structed in the streams and at the lake outlets to prveent the plant ed salmon from returning to the Columbia.
 The average distance the fist were hauled was between 55 ano 50 miles, while the longest haul was approximately 150 miles During the season, a total of 36, 237 food and game fish were sal vaged by this system. Of these 1l,206 were chinooks; 19,59l wer,
