CLARKS FORK RIVER
OPEN TO FISHERMEN

Notice has been received by sports
mems associations in Carbon county
from the State Fish and Game CON-
mission that the closed season for fish
ing on the Clarks Fork river has been
suspended. According to the From
berg Herald trout are rarely ever
caught that low down in the stream.
This action enables the youngsters to
amuse themselves by fishing during
the spring months without breaking
the law and besides it will provide an
opportunity for some excellent early
fishing near the canyon where white
fish abound.
The Fromberg Herald also states
that considerable complaint has been
made by farmers in the valley near
Fromberg of the damage being done
to the crops by Chinese pheasants.
The birds have become quite numer-
GUS and the matter of a short open
season this fall has been taken up
with state game warden AL Holmes.
who will likely make thorough in
vestigation and pass ON the matter
soon.

Do YOU KNOW THAT:

Taffetas should be rolled when put
away for any length of time for fold
ing will cause the material to crack?
Colored material ought to be soak
ed in cold water to determine if the
color is fast before it is washed with
even the mildest soap?
Velvet will look fresh and new if
it is wiped with slightly damp cloth
instead of being brushed?
Steaming will usually take wrinkles
out of clothes and freshen them?
The easiest way to steam a garment
is to hang it in the bathroom, turn
on the hot water, close the windows
and doors and allow it to remain as
long as possible?

"1) Could the occurrence of four

"(2) What remedy would you sug-
gest, or would it be wiser to be ex-
amined by a doctor?"
Reply
ID The plant poisoning you ex-
perienced in the lake may or may not
be responsible for your present trou-
BILE. Have any of your associates had
the same condition that you complain
of? If so the connection is positive.
(2) Inasmuch as it is impossible to
diagnose a skin affection without see
ing the LESSONS the best thing to do is
to consult doctor if possible, one
who is "up on" skin diseases. A Was
serman test might not be out of order.
