BY little earnest and con-
tinuous effort ample provision
can be made for such annual
stocking of these fishing
streams as will continue the
valley in the reputation of ha,
ing the best trout fishing
grounds not only in the valley
but in the west.

stock the San Luis Lakes lying
north of Alamosa with Bass
and such other species as will
thrive so that the desires of
the anglers may be gratified
in this respect.
The general idea of the or
ganiZation is not only for the
benefit of the fisherman but
to protect and care for the
game life as well by the es-
tablishment of game preserves
where the wild life may be
protected and propagate their
species.
