4 NEW TROUT IA TCHERY

No. long since while taking that de- lightful drive from Salisbury up north toward Sheffield on the "under the mountain" road, along the foot of the Taconic mountains, whose rocky crests tower above the traveller while his de- lighted eye wanders over the lovely Housatonic valley, we noticed soon after getting into tho western part of the town of Sheffield, not far from the road, building in process of erection. We drove into the pastures, tied our horses to the fence and approached the build ing. The gentleman in charge of the work was very courteous and obliging and fully explained everything pertain ing to the establishment. It proved to be MT Charles W. Barnum's new trout hatchery. The building Is about 100 feet by 30 feet in dimensions. The water is diverted into it from a spring which, rising under the base of Mt. Washington, breaks forth within few feet of the hatchery. The peculiar ex- cellence of this water is that it is of an invariable temperature of about 49', perfectly adapted to the matching out of trout eggs. About three million eggs Can be placed in the shallow troughs in in the building. We were also shown the trout eggs, which are taken from the fish and matched out. They are yellowish in color, translucent and about e-eighth of an inch in diameter. Not far from the hatchery brook has been damned up and ponds formed, some containing large trout reaching pound or more in weight and others small ones not over one and one-half inches long, but all very fond of the chopped liver thrown to them.
 We have also learned that Mir Bar mum is damming up brook at Lime Rock which will enable him to flood 15 acres of ground for trout pond.

The best test of the quality of paint is exposure to the weather. Win ter snows and summer suns will prove its value or lack of it Poor paint loses its brilliancy and peels off under the suns scorching rays. When you apply paint to be durable and always smooth and glossy, see that you get the Chiffon brands. They are manufactured in the most careful manner, of the very best-herefore the dearest-materials. They are seven times ground over and possess a solid body almost unknown in other paints, but see that they are ap- piled to dry surface. Any paint will peel if applied to wet or even damp surface. Where the pores of the wood are filled with moisture, oil cannot enter.
