BIG SHIPMENT OF. TROUT FOR
 HERE ON ROAD
Widgeon to Arrive Sunday with About l5,000
 Brook Trout

A shipment c. eastern brook trout fingerlings, approximately 15,000, will arrive here at a. m Sunday on the Fisheries patrol boat Widgeon from the Yes Bay hatchery. It is consigned to the Alaska Fish and Game Club of this city and the fish will be planted in Aux Lake.
 The fish are being supplied to the club by the U. s. Bureau of Fisheries. Last Fall Commission. CT Henry O'Malley had a ship. ment of eggs sent from bureau stations in the States to Yes Bay where they were matched and cared for until they reached the lingering size. A portion of the lot was given to Petersburg sportsmen for planting in fake near there and others will go to Sitka.
 This is the third planting of trout the local club has made in Aux Lake in the past three years said Grover c. Vim, president, today. Our program has for it's object the stocking of that lake and maintaining there a supply of fish to provide Jul neau people with place to fish without either inconvenience or excessive expense. In order to accomplish this, it will be neces- sary to curtail fishing there for few years in order to give the trout planted time to mature and spawn. There is no way in which the lake can be closed to fish ing but the club is confident To- cal sportsmen will aid in this work, refraining from excessive fishing and by not taking any small fish," he added.
 A. J. Sprague, special Fisheries Commissioner of the Territory will supervise t' planting of the fish which will be taken to the lake as soon as the Widgeon ar rives in port tomorrow.
