THE GLEN SPRINGS
TROUT HATCHERY
OWNED AND OPERATED BY F.
r. AND CLYDE BASSETT.
GROWING RAPIDLY.

Few people of Paw Paw are aware of
the fact that we have quite an extensive
fishery here. +. r. Bassett and son
Clyde are the proprietors, and their
fishery is located on their property four
miles east of the village. There are at
present seven ponds, the largest of which
is about so by 100 feet. The others are
eight feet wide and range from 40 to
100 feet in length. The proprietors are
contemplating the building of five more
ponds this season. There are approx
imately 100000 trout in the ponds rang.
ing in size from small fry to marketable
fish. They are fed on liver, and it re-
quires about 400 pounds per week to
supply them, it being shipped from Ar
mour & 90. OF Chicago fresh each week.
The location is ideal for the purpose,
and the secretary of the state fish CON-
mission has said that it is the very best
location for trout hatchery in Mich
igan. There is no danger from freshets,
and the large supply of pure clear water
is all used within 300 feet of its source.
Small fry are not hatched for the
market, but large number of eggs are
sold each year to the state fish commits
sion. Several hundred thousand eggs
were delivered to the fish car at Lawton
last week.
A large number OF trout are being
hatched this year for the exclusive use
of their own fisheries They are at pre-
sent marketing a good many trout
which vary in size from one third to
one-half pound each. There is a large
demand for these fish, which sell at
wholesale at go cents per pound. Any
one would be well paid by visit to the
hatchery.

take a like interest 10 such matters,
some day we might have excellent trout
fishing in the vicinity of Paw Paw. As
it is now, many fine specimens of the
speckled beauties are taken from the
streams every year, but with little care
on the part oil fishermen to see that the
stock is replenished each year. this king
of all sports could be much improved.

ANOTHER STEP IN
THE CULVER CASE
SUIT BROUGHT AGAINST SUR
ETY. co. TO COLLECT
DAMAGES.

During the month of December the
attorneys for the railroad in the Culver
case moved for leave to file a motion for
a new trial. Their motion was based on
some affidavits wherein new evidence
vas purported to have been discovered.
Last Monday Judge Des Voignes hand
ed down an opinion denying such motion.
In the opinion he says: From what has
been stated il is patent that the same
contention now raised was practically
in principle before the jury in all the
other trials, lie: the integrity of plaintiffs 8
proof, individually and collectively was
severely criticised aud held up to the
jury as unworthy of credit and belief;
and in every instance the jury has re-
fused to accept this theory and rebuked
the defendant by an increased verdict in
each instance. Now at hest the alleged
newly discovered evidence is cumulative
and it is not alleged, neither does it ap-
pear to the Court, as matter of belief,
that a atrial would probably result u
a change of verdict"
Suit has been brought by Culver
against the Fidelity and Deposit Co. OF
Maryland to recover the judgment and
costs, amounting in all to nearly $4,000.

Field Dodder.

Dodder. or love vine, is a great ene-
my of alfalfa. 1t is a parasitic vine
growing on the stems and taking out
the life and vitality Of even the roots.
The vine intwines itself about the al
falfa stems in great clusters and grows
thrlftily or small in exact proportion
to the growth of alfalfa. When the
alfalfa is cut, this vine appears in dry,
hairy lunches about the stems. It IS
so repngnant to horses and cattle that
It VIII not he eaten except as a last re-
sort before starvation. The best way
to keep free from dodder is to buy
only clean seed. In some cases farm
ers use flaming mills and try to re-
clean the seed before sowing. If the
plant gets started in a field, the best
plan 10 get rid of it is to scatter straw
over the alfalfa stubble and burn the
entire field. This does not injure the
alfalfa, but kills the dodder and
other noxious weeds.-Kimball's Dairy
