mound for the Athletics and he
showed pretty good form in the
early innings after couple of sin

teammates did not play well up be-

Temple brought home two scores

Waxahachie scored only In the
second inning when three safe
blows threatened to drive Long
from the box. After that they were
helpless and never seriously threat

Government Seeks Invention That
Will Effectively Protect Young
Fish From Death.
Western Newspaper Union News Service.

Western Newspaper Union News Service
Denver-Tests Of various devices
to prevent fish from entering irriga-
tion bitches are to be made by fores-
try officials. who say that thousands
OF trout placed in western streams by
the government are killed by being
washed out on the fields. There are
no less than 1900 irrigation projects
on or near the national forests, and
In many places the loss Of trout is
very heavy. The amount OF water
used in irrigation. 1t is said. often de.
termines the advisability of artificial.
ly stocking the streams.
The government annually plants
millions of fish fry in the streams OF
the national forests. Last year over
100000 were planted in Colorado and
Wyoming alone. Where much OF the
water is used for irrigation, unless
the bitches are screened, the trout en-.
ter them and are washed out on to
the fields. While fish are said to
make good fertilizer. officials think
that trout are too expensive to be
used for that purpose.
Most of the western states have
laws requiring that the bitches be
screened, but they are seldom en-.
forced The farmers are said to dis
like the screens. because they col.
lect drift-wood and trash-which
prevents the free flow of the water.
A number Of devices for screening
bitches are in use. and while two or
three have been found to be fairly
effective most OF them are said to be
unsatisfactory. II is asserted that
this subject presents an excellent op-
portunity for inventors, since a sue
cessful screen will be sure to be wide.

ficials are slow to recommend the
placing Of trout in streams where they
are apt to be led off into the irriga-
tion bitches.
