SALMON FOR FOX
FEED AVAILABLE,
STATES O’MALLEY
Persona engaged in the fox farm
ing industry in Alaska need have no
uneasiness over the question of se
curing salmon for feed for their
animals, according to a statement
made by Henry O’.Mailey, U. S. Com
missioner of Fisheries, which has just
been received by Tho Empire. The
Commissioner said some fox farmers
had expressed an unoasiness over the
effect of regulations in the fisheries
reserves on them in getting salmon
for feed, a number making direct |
inquiries of the Bureau on that sub-J
Ject.
Tho Commissioner's statement fol-i
lows:
“in tho regulations issued De-1
cemiber 14 and 1', 1922, for the A1-!
aska Peninsula Fisheries Reservation1
| and the Soulhwcstorn Alaska Fisher-j
; ies Reservation, is a provision as'
1 fellows:
Fox farmers may take and pra
parc salmon for fox food in all
legal ways, but must socure per
mits from tho Secretary of Com
merce.
Get Permits on Ground
“The Bureau’s representatives in
the various districts of Alaska have
been authorized to receive and pass
upon applications from local residents|
for fishing operations upon a small j
scale, in which class fishing to sup
ply fox ranches is of course in
cluded
•'Inquiries made during the pu3t
Season by representatives of the Bu
reau of Fisheries developed the fact
that considerable quantities of salmon
are used for fox feed, tho chief spe
cies (being humpbacks. Most of the
fish are apparently purchased from
commercial fishermen, but in some
cases tile fox ranchers do their own
fishing. In this connection it is felt
to be desirable to emphasize^ the point
that such fishing is commercial and
Is subject to all the restrictions im
posed by the law and regulations *
Fishing on tho spawning beds a fid I
within the streams in order to supply
fox ranches Is jii3t as much a viola
tion of the law as if tho catch were
destined for a cannery. Compliance
with ail of the restrictions imposed
on fishing is necessary to conserve
the supply of salmon by allowing
natural reproduction, since there is
no more certain method of extermin
ating tho salmon than by taking them
cm the spawning beds. Fox farmers
are urged to aid in preserving the I
supply by seeing that the fish they:
use are not taken within the protect-'
ed waters.
Desires to Cooperate _j
'Some anxiety seems to have been!
felt in certain quarters lest the ef-|
forts of tho Bureau for the protec J
tion of the fishory resources of Al
-aska work unduo hardship upon fox ■
farmers. On the contrary, it is not
the intention of tho Bureau of Fish
eries to place any handicap upon the
fur-farming industry of Alaska, but
to cooperate tn every way in Its
proper development. It ig felt that
this end will be attained through a •
bettor understanding on the part
of the fox farmers of the real need
for *protocfcion of the fisheries and
the methods through which the con
servation of the salmon runs may be
secured.’’
Mrs. Charles Shew, wife of an
officer on the Explorer, and her
baby, arrived here on the Jefferson.
James J. T>avle, assistant chief
special agent of the Great Northern
Railway Company, arrived here on
the Jefferson from Ketchikan. He
Is making a trip to this district In
the interest of the company and
plans to return South on one of the
next lwate.
