ADIRONDACK TROUTING.
IT'S the Early Anglers That Catch the Fish
on Some or the Lakes.

1.-THE reason why city sportsmen are
so regularly disappointed in the trout
fishing they expected to enjoy on the small
Adirondack lakes" said an angler, lis that
they get there too late.
1t is a rare season that the trouting in
such waters isn't over by the middle Of
May. The trout are there just the same,
but they are making their homes In the
deep water. where all ordinary methods
Of angling fail to find them.
"The city sportsman hears stories OF
fine catches. which are undoubtedly true,
but when he gets on the ground about the
time when trout fishing elsewhere should
be at it's very best. and succeeds in hooking
nothing but prickley-nosed chubs and
shiny dace, he may be excused for losing
faith in his fellows.
This applies only to the smaller lakes.
Although ideal natural trout waters, they
literally swarm with clubs and dace when
warm weather comes. To escape these
and enjoy the trout the angler must have
his hooks In the water as soon after the
season opens as possible.
Those lakes are fed by springs. and have,
as a rule insignificant outlets. The lakes
streams as inlets or outlets are different
as to piscatorial conditions. In some Of
these the trout fishing Is good all through
the season.
Cranberry Lake Is a notable instance
OF this. The north branch Of the Oswegat-
chic River Ao'.s through it asd supplies
it with large and gamy trout. Four and
five Founders are not unknown IN Gran
berry Lake, near the inlet.
sThat Oswegatchie water, by the way.
IL a great purveyor OF sport to the angler
after trout, In all it's divisions. The middle
and north branch and their many tribu-
taries are ideal homes Of the brook trout.
sThe middle branch for at least twelve
miles OF its turbulent course, has a fall
of from 80 to 100 feet to the mile, and Is a
succession OF rapids, deep pools and noisy
cataracts. 1t contains perhaps the largest
brook trout OF any stream in the western
Adirondack region.
Last season the high water and almost
daily rains. from May until September,
were q great handicap to the angler in
Adirondack waters, and the fishing season
was neither successful nor enjoyable. This
season, thus far, the conditions are re.
versed. There has been no rain at all
and the streams are unusually low.
IF the dry weather continues, 1t must
necessarily be as detrimental to fishing
prospects az the unduly and almost unprec-
edented wet weather Of last season was"

THE WOOD DUCKS NEST.
Found a. Rule Only by Accident-Eiuca
ton OF the Young Birds.

ZION OF inc lOun8 oirVN.
In the country along the south shore Of
Lake Superior and contiguous to it most
of the wild fowl have gone to breeding.
In many instances the focks remained
unssparated up to two weeks ago.
The mallards, the teal which have come
40 far north, the sprigs and butterballs are
all laying and the bluebills will begin soon.
Even the wood ducks are building, and they
are among the latest of all ducks to set up
housekeeping.
The wood duck Is more OF summer duck
than the other kinds and breeds much
further south, though some individuals
go even further north than Superior. The
wood duck, in fact breeds as far down the
country as northern Arkansas and some
hurt individuals have been known to rear
young amid the torrid heats of Louisiana
This bird, one of the most interesting Of
the duck family. Is one of the hardest to
find. 1t does not display extraordinary
skill in hiding its nest. but most aersons
in going through the woods and seeing
a wood ducks nest would take it to be the
nest OF q squirrel or crow and 80 pass 1t by
The summer habitation Of this duck is
generally found only by accident. A man
walking or standing near sees duck come
and pitch into he nest. or he hears the faint
quack of the young just out of the shell,
or later. when they have grown stronger
one climbs over the edge and falls and is
killed.
The nest is placed generally in the heavy
fork OF some big tree and not more than
twenty feet from the ground, II the tree
be decayed and offer a cavity big enough
to permit Of the mothers entrance
The nest IL constructed Of heavy twigs
and short sticks ingeniously placed, and
it is stuck together here and there with
mud brought from the waters edge in the
builders bill. Nearly always the nest Is 40
placed that 1t is protected by heavy limbs
from rain.
