: NOWS WILL DEL Y
GOOD TROUT FISHING
Swollen and Rapid Streams Likely to
Follow Warm Weather-Damage
by Muskrats and Mink

Fishermen who had been thinking
of polishing up equipment in antic-
ipation Of the opening of the tre ut
season, April 10 have changed their
minds because of the heavy SHOWS.
Unless warm weather comes in
hurry, there is not going to be any
good trout fishing for some time af-
Ter April Is. Everywhere are several
feet of snow, and the weather has
been cold enough to- keep the brooks
frozen up. Last year with chilly
water in the brooks and a seeming
scarcity of trout, was bad enough, ?
said one man, but il looks as though
the sport was doomed this year
Reports from nearby places indi-
cate that the situation is as bad as
that. Repeated SHOWS have become
cncrusted one on top of the ether, so
that IT will take hot weather to open
IN the forests and streams. When the
snow does start to leave, the chances
are it will cause swollen and rapid
streams. Current swiftness is often
handicap enough, but few fishermen
like to angle in a flood.
Pessimistic fishermen believe that
some of the biggest and best streams
have been nearly wiped clean of fish
through the winter, by muskrats,
minks. and offers. With ice on the
streams, the trout huddle in sheltered
| pools, and they are known to often
/ gather thiclly. When an otter is
/ cruising under the ice in arch OF
/ dinner, he finds The trout conventions
very convenient. There are not many
streams in the state that are visite,
by offers, however More contain
muskrats and mink.

NOT A BIG FRESHET.
Another Connecticut Weather Prophet
Takes a Hand at Demonstration.

Taxes 4 Hand at Representation.
NORWICH, CONN, March pa
locai paper publishes q letter from Til,
Cloud Digger, well known weather
prophet, who SCOTS at Uncle Horace
johnson 5 prediction of big flood
He says
Once more ] have the satisfaction OF
knowing that the old tried and true
weather rules | have been following
for nearly quarter of q century have
not failed me. The continued unsettled
stormy weather l predicted for March
ending up in a cold wave about the
18th, arrived just as predicted Uncle
Horace in his food predictions for
March Il TO 10, didn t stop to CON
slider a cold wave that certain planet
airy conditions-never failing-fore-
easted. Uncle Horace may tell us later
on about the big flood; but / do not
see now where it is coming from. Ny
ideas from conditions now prevailing
are that the piles of snow now cover
ing the earth vii! gradually melt away
and while a very small storm of warm
rain might bring about big flood,
past experience-notably the big March
blizzard of 1SSS-proves that an extra
ordinary amount of snow is seldom
carried off with a heavy rain storm
The simple reason that this is seldom
if ever the case, is the cause of our
not having any more great floods.
Conditions have been ripe for a big
freshet but the vernal equinox period
has arrived with all this reversed.

a long warm period.
