To Improve Rio Grande System

1t is hoped that President Harri

duced to take up the Ietterment OF
the Rio Grande system, of whic hr
recently acquired control. An eff
fort is being made by the Denver
Chamber of Commerce to obtain
m interview with the railway mag
nate upon his T, turn from the south
and whereby they may be able to
impress upon him the Importance
of improving the roal. 1t is under
stood that Mr.. Hartman bears the
reputation of being man who be-
lieves in keeping his road beds and
equipments mp, in preference to
adding milage 10 all OF the sys-
TENS under his control. III this be
true it will only be necessary for
him to know the facts in order to
see what should De done to bring
the best results and incrense his
earnings. One Of the FIRST things
would, doubtless, be the standard

the road aud thus dispense with all

Estimated Value OF Trout

1t i, estimated by F, E. Land,
superintendent Of the state fish
hatchery near Denver aud on- of
the most competent fish experts in
the country, that the commercial
value of tie trout caught by hook
and line in the streams of this state
is not less than S25O,oU0. This Is
exclusively the product Of hshing
for sport or by ran ;hmrn living in
in the vicinity of trout streams. To
estimate the total food value Of the
fish produced in this state those
grown in private lakes and sold IN
the market should be added, since
market fishing in the natural
streams is prohibited by law.
Colorado maintains seven hsh
ha.cheries. From the s.nte aud the
federal hatcheries, 10000, COO trout
are deposited annually in the mt
ural streams of the state. three
species being propngated, consist-
ing OF the rnlnbpw. mountain and
brook trou,s.
The open season extends from
May ID 10 November and daring
which season fishing is free and
thousands participate in the sport.
Many tourists are ,lrnwn to the
state 10y the prospect of ob,nining
good nshing, and TO the food value
Of the fish taken by hook and line
should be added TIE benefit which
the people CT the state derive from
health promoting spor, aud that
which results from the visits Of
tourist sportmen. AS "A fYctor in
the food supply of ranchm-n and
others living in the mountains. the
trout caught in the natural streams
form very important part.
The cost of maintaining TIE state
tish hatcheries ard depositing the
Young fish in the streams is about
SO. 200 a year aud the cost of game
protection is about the same sum,
making II total of $4,000 This is
offset by fees paid for hunting lie
rnses. so that fish propagation and
game protection, considered togeth
er are selfsupportinu. SO far as the
state service is concerned; and in
addition the stata gets half of the
benefit Of the federal hat :hrry near
Lradville. since one-half the fish
produced in that hatchery are put
IN the streams of Colorado, the
other half being placed III those OF
adjacen. parts of the Rocky noun
taIns.
From the forgoing me can OBJ
tain view of what the fish and
game service is worth the state, the
food value of the trout caught be-
ing four times the cost of both fish
propagation and game protection
This being a selfsupportlog service
the food value is net gain, to say
nothing of the still greater value
of fishing viewed as sport. 1t is
evident in this connection that the
game protection must he strictly
maintained, since 1t is the revenue
from hunting licenses which covers
the expense of both fish propaga.
