St. Peter Protests
Hatchery Closing
WATER NOT SUITABLE
FOR SPAWN, STATE
DEPARTMENT SAYS

st. Peter BY an order of the
state conservation commissioner,
st. Peter faces immediate loss of
its state fish hatchery. The hatch
cry will be used only for min
now breeding ground.
In recent weeks nearly all of
the fish from the hatchery have
been transferred to the state
hatcherieS at st. Paul and Lanes
boro, leaving the huge concrete
tanks here practically empty.
Only those fish too small to move
were left.
Conservation officials say that
they must discontinue trout
Matching at ST.. Peter because of
the water which has an extremely
low oxygen and a very high sur
phur content. AS a result only
100000 fish Weer Matched out of
100000 spawn.
The conservation department
plans to continue the hatchery
only to raise black-noSed min
noWs which will be shipped to
other state hatcherieS for use in
feeding other fish.
st. Peter residents are pro-
testing the order, claiming that
rainbow and brown trout, as well
as pike, bass and crappies can be
raised there and that it is only
the brook trout which cannot be
Matched efficiently. The hatchery
has been in operation 16 years.
