Big Sockeye Run Expected Soon On After Lean Years OLYMPIA, July 15.—(Special.) — Four thousand humpback salmon have put to sea carrying tags showing that they were released this summer from the Hood Canal salt water feeding ponds of the state fisheries department. An unusually high tide accompanied by a strong wind flooded the feeding ponds and released several thousand other humpies that were due to be tagged.

This is the "big run" year and fishermen have hopes of an improved sockeye catch. However, the sockeyes have fallen off ever since contractors on the Canadian Northern in 1913 blew a part of the mountain into Hell Gate canyon and blocked the upper Fraser river so the sockeyes that year could not reach their natural spawning beds. Canadian and American fisheries officials this fall will investigate to determine whether the sockeye run on the upper Fraser is improving.
