TROUT FARMERS.
A Profitable Industry for Persons Owning

A Profitable Industry for Persons Owning
An Aero or Two of Cold Water.
M1DDLETowN N. Y, July 5.-The growing OF
trout for the New York market Is becoming m
established industry In some localities of the
interior near the lines Of the Erie and Ontario
and Western railroads. The farmer who is so
fortunate as to have cold spring brook on his
property with small natural pond or with
facilities for making an artificial one. Is dis
covering that an acre or two of water stocked
with trout can be made to yield far more pro-
fltable returns than the like quantity Of dry
land devoted to any ordinary crop. The COM
mon brook trout ia selected for cultivation. be-
cause it invariably commands high prices
throughout the season. After the pond is once
stocked the fish require but little care beyond
that OF feeding them regularly. They are usu-
alhNjed with corn meal or wheat or rye mid
dlings. either OF which produces rapid growth
without impairing the delicate natural flavor.
Col James Wisner OF the town OF Warwick is
one OF those who have engaged in trout cult
walton extensively and probably. Four years
ago he damned a spring brook on his farm at
two points. 20 as to give him two ronds with
an area altogether Of about five acres. When
the ponds were ready he stocked them with
trout fry He has made number OF shipments
to New York this season OF trout from his fish
ponds. weighing from ,three-Guarters Of a
pound to TWO and q half pounds apiece. He
shipped as many as GOO pounds in one lot. He
got 60 TO 20 cents pound
Trout growers make a good thing by selling
ers are usually unskilled anglers who have
whipped the neighborlng streams In vain 1t
Is safe to bet that when one OF these crafty
fishermen gets homo and shows q creel full Of
beauties to admiring friends. he doesn't tell

who slept on their vessels along the winter

not vigorous enough to permit him TO continue

live again In New York. He has IA married

grandchildren living at 1873 West Tenth street
Capt. Gastlin had good preliminary train
ing for police work by serving in the volun-
teers on the Union side in the late war. He
was sppointed on tho police force as a patrol
man on May ~ 1SG4. Two years aiterward.
on Feb &, 1896. he WINS promoted to be u
roundsmnn. and four years a'terward a Ser
Reant. He was appointed Captain Of the
Steamboat Police on Sept 20. 1873. In his
twenty-siX years OF service in tho Police De-
partment Capt. Gastlin had only three charges
preferred against him, and they were OF u
slight and technical nature. Rather grave
and taciturn. Capt: Gastlin made many friends
in and outside Of the department who admired
him for his attention to duty.
