Despite the utmost effort on the part

conditions under which IL existed and
its rare beauty and virtues as game
fish were called to the attention Of
President Roosevelt in 1906 and he i'm
1nediately ordered the FISH commit ssion

TO IeadYille. Cole and BoZeman, Mont,
where conditions were similar. and
great numbers of them have been bred
at those stations and are being dis
tributed With good luck you will be
able TO pull a golden trout out of

In an attempt TO repay the west for
its faYors in the line of fish the east
has given TO this section many speci-
