BRITISH COLUMBIA. 



Fraser River. — The first hatchery established by the Dominion of 

 Canada on the Pacific coast was erected in 1884 at what is now Bon 

 Accord, a point on the lower river some 4 miles above New West- 

 minster, and on the opposite shore. The next built was in 1901 on 

 Granite Creek, vShuswap Lake, which discharges into the Fraser 

 through the South Thompson River, the lake being about 280 miles 

 from New Westminster. In 1904 another hatchery was established 

 on Harrison Lake on the Lillooet lliver, first large tributary of the 

 Fraser on the north side; also one about 4 miles (>ast of the lower 

 extremities of Pemberton Meadows, at the junction of Owl Creek 

 and the Birkenhead River, 4 miles above its confluence with the 

 eastern branch of the Lillooet River, which in turn discharges into 

 Lillooet Lake. In 1907 a hatchery was built on Stuart Lake, near 

 the headwaters of the Fraser. 



In 1914 the Bon Accord hatchery had to be abandoned, due to the 

 laying out of a town site around it, and the equipment was transferred 

 to Queen's Park, New Westminster. 



The Province of British Columbia owns Seton Lake hatchery, 

 which was established in 1903 on Lake Creek, on the north side, 

 about half a mile from the outlet of Seton Lake, and it has been 

 operated continuously ever since. Seton Lake is a part of the Fraser 

 River chain and is some 300 miles above the mouth of the river. 

 Lake Creek, the outlet of Seton Lake, empties into the Cayoosh 

 Creek, a tributary of the Fraser, 45 miles north of the latter's junction 

 with the Thompson, and 1 mile south of the town of Lillooet.
