942 PACIFIC SALMON FISHERIES. 
As this dam prevented the salmon from reaching the spawning beds, 
the State established an eyeing station the same year just below 
the dam. In 1913 the name was changed to Green River hatchery, 
to conform to the name of the main stream. 
In 1912 the United States Bureau of Fisheries completed the Quil- 
cene and Duckabush hatcheries. Both are on small tributaries 
entering the west side of Hoods Canal, an arm of Puget Sound. 
In 1913 a new station was operated by the Bureau on the Duse- 
wallips River, a tributary of Hoods Canal, Puget Sound, near Brin- 
non. ‘Two new field stations—on Elwell River, a tributary of the 
Skykomish River, near Sultan, and on Sauk River, a tributary of the 
Skagit River, near Darrington—were also put mto operation the 
same year. The Sauk River had been worked by the State at one 
time. 
In 1913 the Middle Fork Nooksak eyeing station was transformed 
into a hatchery. In the same year the eyeing station on the south 
fork was moved farther up the river. 
In 1914 stations were established by the United States Bureau of 
Fisheries on Day Creek and Illabot Creek, tributaries of the Skagit 
River, while a substation was opened on Hamahama River at Eldon, 
distant about 9 miles up Hood Canal from the mouth of the Ducka- 
bush River. 
On May 23, 1914, the Baker Lake hatchery building was destroyed 
by fire. In addition to the building and equipment, 1,305,820 silver 
fry and 823,097 sockeye fry were destroyed. The station has since 
been rebuilt. 
In 1915 the State built a hatchery on the Pilchuck River, a tribu- 
tary of the Skykomish River, near Granite Falls. — 
In lieu of building ‘a fishway in its dam on the Elwha River, near 
Port Angeles, the Olympic Power Co. furnished the funds needed to 
build a hatchery below the dam, and this was opened by the State 
in 1915.

eries in the State of Washington owned by the United States Bureau 
of Fisheries and the hatcheries owned by the State itself:
