FISH FACTS. Wallace E. Berry of Win.
throp came to Belfast Oct. 9th with 1000
and locked salmon, which he placed in
Swan Lake that night. He also brought the
same number for Georges Pond Liberty
Dpt they We're put into the pond at Freedom.
The fish We're from the State hatchery in
Monmouth, and were procured through the
efforts of Representative W. l.. Littefield
and the cooperation of L. T. Carleton, ESQ.
.... Bicknell & Hopkins have leased the
shore and fishing privilege at Murphy 8
Point and will build weir there in season
for the spring run of salmon. They will
also engage in lobstering and furnish the
public with live broiled Holsters as formerly
at Saturday Cove. Fishing at the latter
place was not a success and we hope they
may have better luck in their new location.
...-. Five thousand siX-month-old Atlantic
salmon We're placed in Lake Aloomoosook
