Notes | From the Oregon Fish Warden's annual report for 1907. Reports on fish runs and hatchery operations for coastal streams. "The hatchery work on the streams of the state flowing into the Pacific Ocean, south of the Columbia River, was, without doubt, interfered with considerably this season by the extreme dry spell of weather that we had throughout the entire fall months, thereby causing the streams to all run so low that the chinooks were kept back from ascending the streams to spawn, and when the rains did come – late in the season – they caused such severe freshets that our temporary racks broke, thereby permitting the salmon to all pass by the hatcheries, and where we had permanent racks the greater number of the salmon passed over and went on to the extreme sources of the streams, where they, of course, spawned naturally.
