that city. Mrs. Scott's patriotic thought, as expressed in her letter of April 12, was that the veteran tree might be the only available one that couuld fittingly commem- crate the First Presidents inaugu- ration on April 30, 1789-the 150th anniversary of which date is be- ing celebrated by the Fair.
 Removals a Problem
 we join with you in veneration of this tree but feel that from practical standpoint it would be unWise for us to consider removal" wrote Fair Corporation official in response to Mrs. Scott's letter. The problem of moving the enormous horSe-cheStnut over such long distance was not considered in- Surmountable, but the three special iStS were reasonably sure that the specimens advanced age would make for short life in new home.
 Great granddaughters of 2 the lately deceased Washington Elm at Cambridge, Mass, where in 1775 Washington took command of the American army, have been offered to the Fair. Three of these grand children trees are cared for by Mrs. Alice Paret Dorsey of Roland Park, Baltimore About 18 feet in height they are still too small to fit in with landscaping plans matured for group planting. The Fair, however, is considering the possibilities of placing one of the historic elms in 8 position of honor.
 The two-year transplant pro- gram that will leave the 1889 Fair embowered in foliage is said to be the largest known single movement of trees. It involves not only s.ll the care and science known to the tree specialist but the even newer science of soil construction. Not all of the 10000 trees destined to adorn the Fair grounds are of giant size. Those used for screen or mass effect can be moved in by the hundreds, for they will be but Striplings compared to those 60 and 65-year olds going into the ground two years in advance of the open ing date. Landscaping plans call for about 250,000 spring Towering bulbs, 25000 hedge plants and 450,- 900 annualS.
 Dangerous Mechanics
 The mechanics of the transplant are painstaking, and sometimes dangerous. One man of the mov- ing crews has suffered fracture of an arm and leg. Special trucks do much of the hauling at night, when | traffic is apt to be least congested. | The largest trees being moved will weigh about 25 tons. and it is | deemed likely that these veterans | will make their respective journeys | by railway flatcar or river scow.
 Areas about Atlantic City, Prince ton, Upper Darby (Pa) and the Susquehanna Valley are among the territories that have been secuted | for Fair trees. Borers, disease, in- equal growth, drainage peculiarties, soil unfit for balling about roots. and numerous other factors cause the Fair to refuse offerings.
 The Fair landscape engineers and tree specialists are being particular, indeed, about the shape and health of trees transplanted. Permanent additions to the Fair site are wanted, for the greatt ract of made land will become a modern recrea- tional park after the Fair closes.

TROUT FISHERMEN
 GET SUGGESTIONS
Sport Not Handmade" More Hiking Necessary
 Than Ever Before

Hartford, May G. Handmade trout fishing, conveniently provided by dumping hatchery trout into brooks from highway bridges, is a thing of the past in Connecticut, the State Board of Fisheries and Game today advised fishermen.
 The more extensive use of newly developed floating trout cars, which make possible wide distribution of trout when stocking streams, is the reason why successful trout fishing this season has called for more hik- ing than ever before.
 Over 50,000 two-year-old brown and rainbow trout, in addition to over 112,000 other legal size trout are included in this seasons stock ing program. The bulk are being planted with floating cars to pro- vida sportier fishing, rather than just trout catching" Commissioner Oliver B. Ellsworth declares.
 "These larger brown and rainbow trout raised at state hatcheries rapidly lose acquired tameness when individually distributed in streams, observations have shown. Their in- herent instincts soon assert them selves and within a few weeks the fish are virtually wild trout.
 "When these two non-native spec ies of trout revert to a wild state they begin seeking natural insect foods. But until water temperature rises to above 55 degrees, when aquatic insects begin to hatch, fish ermen should not expect to fool them with artificial flies," is Com missioner Ellsworth's advice to baf- fled Izaak Waltons who fish under bridges.

T Torrington Trees
 Given Worlds Fair
Connecticut Supplying Stock of Stately Timber for
 Long Island Exposition in l930

New York, May Connecticut is already giving of its stock ot stately trees to the New York Worlds Fair. From as far distant as the environs of Torrington, giant naples and elms are going to the exposition" on Flushing Meadow Long Island.
 They are among the first 474 of 10000 trees figuring in the Fair Corporations landscaping program Trees are also being moved to the site from such settings as the Long Island estates of Otto Kahn, Louis Tiffany and Charles Gould, from the Duke estate Somerville, New Jersey, from the estate of the late diplomat, Truxton Beale, at An napolis, and even from along Belle vile road within IS miles of the White House in Washington.
 What an Elm
 Two 35-foot red naples have been moved from the Dr. Clark estate, Cornwall Bridge, to the 12161s- acre Fair site. One of the larg- est trees figuring in this springs transplant, a 55-foot elm of 18-inch diameter, was acquired by the Fair Corporation from the Ed Lauffer place, Brookfield Centre. Films ot slightly smaller stature have been acquired from the Supple farm al Brookfield and from the Rich es- tate, Ridgefeld.
 Trees are being transplanted two years in advance of the Fairs open- ing date, April 30, 1889, in order that they may have ample oppor- tunity to recover from the usual transplant shock and to attain shade proportionate to their ma turity and size.
 Meanwhile, the Fair Corporation $ inspectors and landscaping firm scouts are covering the entire area from Massachusetts to Virginia, and inland to western Pennsylvania, in search for the well-night perfect specimens of elm, maple, oriental plane, dogwood, pin oak and other species that alone meet the exacting specifications of the Fairs contrac- tual acquisitions for large trees. Oriental planes of 12-inch diameter have bene moved to the exposition site from as far west as Carlisle, Pennsylvania.
 The Outpost Nurseries, Inc, of Ridgefield, is a prominent firm among those contracting to supply trees for the Fairs enhancement.
 The sole survivor of 13 horse- chestnut trees planted at Fredericks- burg. Va, by George Washington has been offered to the Fair by Mrs. John F. Scott of 1908 Charles street,
