Guldahl has been a good golfer for

his best year and he seems we'll on the

the Winter season of 1867. With
such a head start, the big man from
Texas can't very well be overtaken,
for there aren't so many more tourna-

down in such generous amounts as
those at Augusta and Coral Gables.
1t dates back to a June day at Chi

SSRpB AND STREAMS 4T
- BY GEORGE HUBER -
BY GEORGE HUBER.

TISHING has increased in popu-
- larity through the years until
the annual catch is such that
4 we no longer can depend on
natural propagation to supply our
bag. Federal and State governments
have stepped in, therefore, to assist
nature in her work. and were it not
for such intervention fish long ago
would have disappeared from our
streams, or at least they would have
become so scarce that the sport of
angling would be spoken Of in the
past tense.
Breeding pools and hatcheries lit
orally dot the country now. and the
product of these artificial aids, known
to anglers as Government fish," sup
ply a major portion of our catch,
especially if it is trout or bass. Some
anglers believe that these home grown
specimens lack the fight and stamina
of the wild trout and bass, but this
department is of the opinion that
there is very little difference, espe-
cially if the fish have been in the
waters, away from artificial feeding
conditions, for any length Of time.
The Lewistown Hatchery in
Frederick County, Md, is an
excellent example of the State
aid to the angler. The money
to run the hatchery comes from
the sale of fishing licenses.
Another and perhaps better example
of State hatchery is in Ridge, w.
Va. where additional pools are under
construction, using w. P. A. money,
and where we may see step by step
the process of increasing our bass
supply. At present about $4,000 bass
are freed yearly, but the additions
being made will increase the output
to 100000.
NEW rearing stations being con-
structed cover about acres and
will be ready for partial use by Spring.
T. M. Cheek, director of fish and
game propagation, warns us, however,
that they cannot be expected to pro-
Quce tnelr capacity output untll ABOUT
1899.
And why not next year?
We have to dig into the not so very
private life of Mr.. and Mrs. Bass to
give the answer. Next Spring, as soon
as the water loses it's chill, the female
will deposit her eggs in convenient
places provided by the watchful and
solicitous attendants.
The small mouth bass depos-
its her eggs in holes made in
sand and gravel, by Tipping her

are placed in nests among grass

was an impenetrable forest OF gi-
gantic pine, and the ground was
covered with a thick underbrush OF
brier and huckleberry, intermingled
with fern and honeysuckle.
Such was Fort Astor in the early
summer of 1912, and such it con-
tinued to be until the site was
changed by DR.. Mclaughlin in 1924
to the north side of the river seven
miles above the mouth of the Will
lanette river where fort was
erected in 1925 and called Fort Van
couver. Five years later, in 1880, an
other site was selected one mile
/ west of the first fort and nearer
the river. This became the head
quarters of DR.. Mclaughlin. Fort
Aston was the home of Cox and his
fellows, who had journeyed with
him from New York, for fully six
weeks, during which time prepare
tions were made for what they
termed their grand expedition into
the interior
Food was in abundance and their
table appeared to have been we'll
supplied with elk, wild fowl and
fish Of the latter they Toasted to
their hearts content on the royal
sturgeon and the sweet little an
chovy, of which they had an album
dant supply twice a day, at break
fast and dinner but before they
moved into the interior they had
become so surfeited with them that
Cox says that few of the company
for years would taste an anchovy
During this period of waiting and
preparation several short excursions
were made up the river, and about
the bay. They were received gen
orally by the natives with every
mark of friendship and hospitality.
A visit was also made to Fort Clat-
sop, the place where Captains
Lewis and Clarke spent the winter
of 18O5-O6 The logs of the house
were still standing and marked with
the names of several of the Lewis
party.
Cox was not at all impressed with

and about the fort He describes

to impress with a favorable opin-

purity of Indian manners. A few
of the men were partially covered,
but the greater number were desti-

eyes were black, piercing and
