o PLANTED IN
LOCAL STREAMS BY
CLUB AND FORESTRY

On Sunday. September Srd, there
was received in Cody a shipment of
134,500 trout requisitioned by the loo
al Rod and Gun Club and the Forest
Service, for planting in local streams.
OF this number 1880 were Black
Spotted fry. and 22,000were Eastern
Brook fingerlings. These were plant
ed by local cooperators, members OF
the Rod and Gun Club and Forest
officers, in small spring creeks trib-
utary to the South Fork of the Sho-
shone River, and in the vicinity Oh
Meteetsee. Fifty three cans were
planted on the South Fork.
Numerous reports OF damage done
this summer by water sprouts indicate
that the loss OF fish in all streams In
this vicinity has been enormous. n
next year unusually heavy stocking
will be necessary II we hope to make
this vicinity the best fishing region
in the United States.
