SIAMESE TWIN
FISH AT LOCAL
FISH HATCHERY
FREAK FISH OF MANY SORTS
HATCHED AT GROUSE
LAKE HATCHERY
Double-headed fish; fish with two
tails; Siamese twin fish; fish with
ballon attachments; fish that hop like
grasshoppers, and other curious spec
imens of the fish tribe are but a few
of the many interesting things a vis
itor to the Seward hatchery, a few
miles out of town on Grouse Lake,
will see. Superintendent Starr, re
puted to be the oldest fish hatchery
man in Alaska, in point of service,
and who was placed in charge of this
hatchery in December, tells the visit
or casually, and in a very short peri
od, fish lore, gained thru many years
of association with them. The knowl-.
edge, thus imparted to the average no
vice, will linger for years in the mem
ory. There are many strange adven
tures in the raising of baby fish and
the evolution, frbm a small egg to a
big salmon, weighing many pounds, is
of the utmost interest. Ask Starr!
A close estimate of the sock-eyes
now in the troughs at the hatchery is
placed at 1,400,000. It is believed
there are a couple of hundred thous
and more king salmon, or a grand to
tal of about 2,500,000 young salmon
being raised at the plant.
The eggs are placed in wire bas
kets which in turn are suspended in
large, narrow wooden troughs. As the
fish hatch they drop thru the basket
to the tank below where they have a
playground about 16 feet in length, in
which to romp about in. They are
then harvested in trays, 64 ounces to
the tray. These trays are then stack
ed six high the entire length of the
trough. This method of caring for
them, until they are ready to be
transferred to the feeding troughs, is
said to more than triple the handling
capacity.
When taken from the trays and
placed in the feeding troughs, the
method of feeding them is odd.
Ground up liver is ladled from the big
pot into a dipper with a screen on the
bottom. This in turn is held in the
water while the attendant forces the
liver thru the screen into the water,
emerging in the form of milk. They
are fed twice each day and like chick
ens running for their grain the little
fish fairly swarm thru the milk. Run
ning water continually is turned in
to the troughs. If this were not done
the fish would die, it is stated. In
July thousands of the salmon will be
released in ponds from which period
they are on their own responsibility.
“GENTLE JULIA” IS BOOTH
TARKINGTON'S STUDY OF
WHIMSICALITIES OF YOUTH
Booth Tarkington’s celebrated nov
el, “Gentle Julia,” has been produced
on the screen by William Fox, It
will be seen at the Liberty theater
tonight.
Like “Seventeen” and the “Pen
rod” series, it contains delightfully
humorous studies of the younger
generation. The heroine is a capti
vating young woman in her early
twenties whose train of admirers
grows longer with each new acquant
ance simply because she hasn’t the
heart to turn any of them down. This
condition of affairs induces a youth
ful niece and nephew to interest
themselves in her adventures of the
heart, with unhappy results to the
parties most concerned.
The ease and skill with which Tar
kington handles his subject will be
grasped quickly by everyone famil
iar with the reputation of this talent
ed novelist and playwright. He has
never written anything more subtly
truthful or more entertaining.
The title role is acted by pretty
and accomplished Bessie Love, one of
the best known actresses on the
screen.
