The gay and festive trout, once wont
to linger in the shadowy pools of many
nearby streams, is apparently becoming
an extinct species. Fishermen who have
essayed to deceive the speckled beauties
this spring have little TO say about their
success. Not half dozen have made
even a fair catch. The trout is unable to
withstand the clearing of land and the
progress of civilization. Fry, planted in
hundreds of streams, is not thriving and
apparently makes little difference in the
number of legal sized fish. Like grouse
and the quail the trout is destined to go,
aud many there will be who will lament
his departure .-Titusyille Herald. And
that's all too true.
