Short Trout
The newspapers have published re
ports of several prosecutions for the
taking of trout of less length than
that provided by law, and as it
would be impracticable for the fish
and game officials to detect more than
certain proportion of the infrac-
lions of the law, it is to be feared
that the practice is common enough
to be a menace to the trout streams.
1t is not easy to understand why
any man should want to kill and
keep small trout A boy might be
tempted to keep anything that lie
succeeded in catching, and it is easy
enough to see why lobster fishermen
will take chances of prosecution
holding on to short Holsters. There

is a profit to be gained if the fish
erman can "get by the officers. But
small trout are not permitted to be
sold, and why a husky man, capa-
BILE of pushing his way along a
trout stream should have a desire
to carry around trout so small that
he would be ashamed to show them
to a fellow fisherman, if there were
no law, passes the understanding of
any right-minded sportsman or ang-
Ter. Yet here comes a report from
Island Pond, Vermont, that a man
has been heavily fined for having in
his possession 181 short trout which
he had taken out of one of the best
trout streams in Essex county. OBJ
viously, it would not be good trout
stream very long if such destruction
were to be permitted, and there is
reason for qualification in the fact
that this mans fine amounted to
$453.
But the imposition of fines alone
will not be sufficient to secure the re-
servation of game or of fish. There
must be enlightened public senti-
ment which will recognize the need
of fish and game laws and the nee
essity for their enforcement. Much
can be accomplished in this respect
through organized effort, and it
would be well worth the trouble if
there were an active fish and game
club or association in practically ev-
cry town in this state. These local
clubs or associations should be af-
filiated with the county and state or
CARNATIONS, and there should be Gre
ated so strong public opinion that
every man who violated the fish and
game laws would feel that he was
held in contempt by his fellow towns
men, whether he was prosecuted and
fined or not Manchester Union.

of Woodstock, treasurer of the state
board, with a paper on the santa
ton of the rural districts. He spoke
OF the willingness OF the state board
to assist the local health authorities
in all questions and Of the necessity
OF keeping the water and milk clean.
He, also, spoke of the district school
and of the obligation we are under
when we force a child to attend
school and do not make the school
safe.
Discussion on this paper was made
by Dr. H. A. Elliott Of Barnet, and

asked by the officers present. After
an explanation of the new blanks
issued for more accurate recording
OF the conditions in the different To-
calities of the state, by DIR. K1dder,
the school was declared closed.
The health officers were in attend
ance most of the time and all ques-
tions and difficulties answered by the
Board. The district school received
more censure than any other one
thing, and the instances cited by
many of the officers showed 1T is
time that something be done to rem
edy them.
The health officer is too often look
ed on as a meddlesome busybody, VINO
is always in other peoples business
and when he is lax he is kicked by
the board and when strict is kicked
by the people. DO the people or YER

CYRUS a Canal Builder.

In speaking of the river regulations
of the ancients Sir William Willcocks.
the noted English engineer, said:
Cyrus the Great controlled the
Gyndes, a tributary of the Tigris. in a
truly original manner. Babylonia was
already peopled and lands were needed
for his Persian troops. The Gyndes
discharges 10000 sectional feet and
runs thirty feet deep in a sandy and
mobile bed. He could build no regula-
tor. SO he dug thirty canals, divided the
waters of the river among them, closed
the river by an earthen dam and com
pletely controlled it. AS he could never
have induced his wild soldiers to dig
these canals for any useful purpose. he
took advantage of the fact that his IA
vorite horse had been drowned In the
food and urged his soldiers to dig the
canals and dissipate the waters Of the
river In such a fashion that 1t could
never again drown a hOrse.-Engineer
