Will Close HeadWaterS
to Protect the Trout

Hon. Linus Leavens, State Fish and
Game Commissioner, has received re-
ports showing that the sportsmen are
much interested in the state plan of
closing the headwaters of streams IN
order to give the trout a chance to
propagate, rather than stocking with
fish hatchery sock, for it is impossi-
bic to replace the trout under the lat
ter plan as fast as they are taken
from the steams by sportsmen. Head
waters in three counties. Windham,
" a.ki:v,t tor and Chittenden counties
have been closed by State order. In
order to do this the residents in those
sections have to sign an agreement
to help prevent fishing in these
streams and see that none takes
place.
