FISH EXPERTS
OR OFFICIAL
VISIT TO CITY
Dr. Henry B. Ward of the University
of Illinois was an arrival in Cordova
on today’s boat, as a special repre
sentative of the bureau of fisheries,
to study the life, history and habits
of the salmon in this section. He is
accompanied by Professor W. A. Old
father, also of the University of Illi
nois, and Superintendent J. R. Rus
sell of the Birdsview hatchery, oper
ated by the government in the state
of Washington. These gentlemen will
spend the next two months in Cordova
and the Copper River valley.
The local canneries and fishing
grounds will be visited, and an inves
tigation will be made of the spawning
grounds in Eyak lake, and later the
party will visit Abercrombie canyon
and Taslina lake.
Dr. Ward has had considerable ex
perience as a salmon expert, and he
comes to Alaska with an open mind
to study the difficult problems, in the
hope of gaining first-hand information
that will be of benefit in perpetuating
the fish industry in the Northland. He
will make a careful study of all the
streams, find out what part of the
stream can be utilized for spawning,
how many fish go through, and their
condition.
This has been the life work of Dr.
Ward. Thirty years ago he made an
investigation of salmon in the Rhine,
and later in Maine. In 1904 he was
a member of the commission ap
pointed by President Roosevelt to
make a study of the diseases of fish
in Southeastern Alaska and Puget
sound. Although he examined more
than one hundred thousand salmon, he
found no trace of disease, which he
attributes largely to the cool waters
in which these fish cavort.
