The Proper Way to Catch whitefish.

lin answer to the query which appeared
In THE HERALD over the signature OF
&ames Thornly few days ago I present
herewith the method of capture used success
fully by myself In the Fourth Lake of the
Fulton Chain In the Adirondacks
Sound for the depth and character OF the
bottom. Fish In from - TO 60 feet where the
bottom IL sand or rock Use coarse washing
soap attached TO metal TO pick up part OF
the bottom.
Having located the ground place a buoy
on II and bait II for four or five days with
cooked samp and then fish the baited ground.
Use two very small hooks tied eighteen
inches apart. Leader Is not necessary Tic
the sinker five or six feet up the line from
the lower hook and whom the sinker fetches
UP on the bottom raise n about one foot
This allows the lower hook and probably tho
upper one to remain on tho bottom Bait
your hook with q piece OF cut sucker and
the bait should be small Another excellent
bait Is the whitcfish fry, which should be
bound an the hook with the sinuey part OF
the fry and the tip Of the hook should be
covered with email piece OF cut fish White
fish viii take this latter bait In preference
to all other.
You should fish in calm water, for your
bait should remain motlonless. The white
fish feeds on bottom and Il sucks In its food
The angler must be alert 20 realize that tho
fish II fumbling with his bait and care must
be taken not to move II until the fish begins
TO move away and is distinctly felt on the
line. This method produced moro than
100 pounds Of whitefish for the writer last
summer I'm Fourth Lake

Dear Readers and Friends of the In
Observation-Disclosures
1t is with much pleasure l am writ
ing You these few lines through our
only real newspaper of Somerset
County Since we left the Dead
River region we eagerly look forward
every week for Friday to come when
we always get our Independent-Re-
porter and then both Mrs. Harlow
and myself look for the news from
all the Northern Somerset towns and
not week goes by but what we see
the doings of many of our northern
friends and neighbors
1t has been one of the best of sea-
sons for crops and We had one of the
best gardens in the town of over half
an acre and as yet we have had no
frost and are still enjoying every
thing fresh and green with lots of
ripe tomatoes, with all the flower
beds in full bloom. This truly seems
nice when we read in the papers
that the water pipes froze up and
burst at Big Island Camps last week.
We have Just had our South Kennebec
Fair which was pretty good and every

with Col. Jones taking up passengers
every half hour and circling over our
place many times. nearly alighting on
the roof of our barn. MIS-. Harlow
took first premium at the fair on
gladiolas, dahlias and asters, and
yours truly brought home seventeen
blue ribbon first premiums. Resides
our garden and farm truck we have so
rabbits, Belgians and Siberians. Be-
sides all we have killed and sold the
past year There is more money in
them than there is in raising chick
ems, as there is no high priced grain
to buy. Just feed them the waste
from the garden and little hay and
straw and they are selling for &c
per pound live weight While the
not find the waste basket and you
best skins from those we kill bring
one dollar and fifty cents to two dol
lars each.
Well old time friends if this does
not find the waste basket and you
read it, don't forget TO send in all the
news to our own best paper we shall
all be glad to read it. Every week
after reading our paper we send il
to our old friend Billie Gilliland OF
Philadelphia, Pa, the once famous
baseball catcher for the Flagstaii
club.
Hoping to see many more of those
good newsy letters from our up river
friends the coming winter, | will
close for this time.
Yours as ever,
