100000 STEELHEAD
FRY FOR UMAIILLA

One hundred thousand steelhead
trout fry are being transported from

the O.-W. r. & y, near Pendleton.
and are being turned ,oo-e there to
grow. When they are Of sufficient
size they will be turned into the Una
tilla river, says the Journal.
The fry are in the charge of T. J.
Craig state fish warden, and Harry
Trembath Of Oregon City. The trans
fer will take four shipments. They
have already taken two shipments
and will take another tonight. The
first shipment consisted of 10000, and
only q were lost on the trip. The
second of 10000 was still more sue
cessful, only six being lost.
In taking these rish the utmost
care and watchfulness IS necessary, as
the temperature must be kept even
and they must have plenty of air.
The Hartman officials are cooper
ating with Mr.. Craig, and are doing
everything possible to render assist
ance. They transport the fish free OF
charge, give up all room necessary,
stop the trains on the main line near
the pond to unload, as there is no
siding close, and even hired a team
and wagon to take the cans in which
the fish were transported back to
Gibbon from the pond.
