Bass Breeding Solved at Last.

The Fish commission held it's mid
summer meeting at Minocqua last
week, at which time work for the lull
season was planned and instructions
issued for the guidance of superin-
tendents of the various fish hatcher
les of the state.
The commission feels that at last
the problem Of black bass Matching
under artificial conditions has been
solved. This is a great achievement.
1t has long yexed experimenters, who
have found that the usual way of
stripping the spawn and milling it,
successfully used with trout and 9TH
er fish would not do. The Wisconsin
commission and the Michigan peo-
pie, too, have of late been pursuing
the policy of simply impoundlng the
bass breeders, permitting natural pro-
cess to prevail but,encouraging breed
ing by providing slightly elevated
tables OF inviting gravel beds for
spawning, and then removing the can
nibalistic old fish as soon as Matching
occurs. The plan has worked SO well
that the commission is delighted and
anticipates no further trouble. Min
ocqua offers natural bass waters and
all the conditions there are most adj
vantageous. Old bass may be. fed
with minnows simply dipped in end
less numbers from lake fed stream
paralleling the ponds. This economy
is important when perhaps thous-
and dollars a year may be needed to
purchase liver for the.fish in the Mad
ison hatchery land the bass flourish
better on the natural food, too. The
fry get an emolusion suitable to their
infantile digestion; but their diet is
not of large moment since they are
distributed over the state while yet
very young. Rhinelander Herald.

INCIDENT OF MULE LIFE.
A. III,str,tIye Instance Of the True
Nature of the Long-Eared
Hybrids.

Once, on mining expedition, we had
among the mules a strong, reDelllous
Young animal that was determined to
90 where and as she pleased, relates
writer in Forest and Stream. Some
times her fancy took her along the
high places above the road, sometlm
she went below it, then she seemed 10
have lost something, and acted as
though she expected TO find II III the
woods, but she had decided objections
TO walking on the road, and SO gave
the poems a great deal OF trouble.
Finally there came to me brilliant
thought had a steady old horse, ana
they caught the ambitious mule and
tied her securely to my horses tail;
it wasn't considerate to the horse, but
il did fix the mule. She couldn't stop
conveniently, and she couldn't get past
the horse, neither could she wander
up to the hiltops or climb down among
the guIlies, without taking the horse
along, too. but that was inconvenient
For time all went well, but after
awhile we came to a place where the
road went down between pretty step
banks till it reached a stream Of con-
siderable volume. My horse went
down the trail in a resigned sort OF
way. but the mule started along the
bank and wouldn't come into the trail;
the result was that presently she could
20 no further, and then came tug Of
war TO see whether the horse in the
gully could pull the mule down from
the high bank or whether the mule
could pull the horses tail out. scram-
bled from the saddle as fast as possible,
and then the animals seemed to come
to an understanding; the horse backed
ND as far as he could, and the mule
braced her fore feetand hung her head
over the bank as far as possible; and
so they stood. Presently the poems
came and united them. and ] declined
to have them done up again; and so for
the rest Of the way that mule followed
It's own sweet will, "and a mules will
Is the winds will" and the thoughts
OF a mule are long, long thoughts, in
comprehensibly long.
