The story of Williamstown farm
er, who was in the city to-day on bust
ness indicates the serious situation
which confronts the owners of large
diaries. Sometime ago the farmer
stocked a large brook running through
his acres with trout fry from the state
hatchery at RoXbury. Through the
summer, the fish continued to thrive
until the present drouth. Latterly the
farmer has been compelled to visit the
brook daily in order to keep the deeper
pools free from dead trout that float
on the surface of the water. The dry
spell has reduced the water to a level
that hardly covers the bed of the brook
and should it continue the stream will
be depopulated of trout.
