Now the commission says the work shows high promise. In 1937 only a few sockeye were found remaining in the spawning beds of the Horsefly River, one of the interior tri- butaries of the Fraser. This year more than 5,000 three- year-old sockeye were observ- ed coming to spawn. These three-year-cids are early maturing fish which pre- cede the main run of spawning adults and are indicative of the size of the run to come in 1953 in the normal four-year birth- to-spawning-death cycle of the salmon’s mysterious life. WELCOME RETURN Not since the Heil’s Gate slide, have this many three-year-olds appeared in the Horsefly area. It has led commission biologists to predict that next year’s run from the Quesnel River—whick empties the Horsefly and feeds ‘the Fraser—will be “several hundred thousand sockeye.” The Quesnel run alone in the last big year of 1913 is esti-. mated to have produced at { least $30,000,000 worth of can- ned sockeye at present-day prices. There are other favorable re-| ports. An estimated 6,000 sock- eye are reported spawning in the Seton-Anderson lakes area, the first spawn of any signifi- cance there since i913. The commission, whose juris- diction embraces the Fraser sal- mon system, said “it definity appears ... that the once fabu- lously valuable sockeye fishery is returning rapidly in the Fraser River.” SKEENA RIVER RUN Federal Department of Fisher- ies scientists here agree. Their main concern of late has been with the more northerly run of the Skeena River, British Columbia’s second largest sal- mon producer. On one of the Skeena’s tributares—the Babine River—the federal men are en- gaged in a $1,000,000 slide-re- moval job. The slide blocked the Ba- bine last year, cutting off the spawning grounds to half the Skeena run, It occurred in a 300-foot river canyon and a 60-mile road had to be built through rough terrain to the site to bring in clearing machinery | Now engineers have succeeded \ii clearing at least two channels to allow early-arriving salmon to reach the spawning beds be- yond the slide. The work is still going on, an engineering feat which surpasses Hell’s Gate can- yon in its difficulty. On the Pacific, salmon fisher- men have their eyes on 1953. It is what is known as a “cyclic” year. Checks have shown the largest sockeye runs always oc- cur every four years based on 1913—that is in 1917, 1921 and so on. Next year is one of those years and all indications are favorable for a whopping run. FIVE TYPES British Columbia's five types of salmon—sockeye, pinks, coho, chum and spring---all have one thing in common. All go to sea as Small fish, then return four years later to the beds where they were born, to spawn and die. Scientists still haven't many clues as to where the salmon go when they put to sea.

Seventy-three, he died at his home in Fearnan, Perthshire. Major Douglas led a movement that excited economic and poli- tical thinking in many parts of the English-speaking world dur- ing the depression of 1933. He claimed 2,000,000 followers. The British engineer and economist came to Alberta in 1934 at the invitation of Premier R. G.
