William Kellogg is one of the few
fortunate sportsmen to have had a
trout stream on his own land. Back
in New York State where he lived
for many years, clear cold noun
tain stream flowed through a section
of their farm. Needing supply of
ice for use in the hotels operated by
his family, he and his father con-
structed a stone and timber dam
across the fast flowing stream and
formed a pool ten acres in size and
feet deep in places. Kellogg states
the stream contained only brook
trout, but there were plenty of them!
Many a morning he has been able
to catch mess of these tasty fish
in short order-in time for their
breakfast. Photographs shown by
Kellogg contained pictures of the
trout from the stream. Some of
these fish weighed up to 2-2a TBS.
each!
From the dam to the valley below
there was a succession of small
Dpools, all furnishing plenty tf sport
for the angler. The winters were
plenty cold and ice formed at times
21a feet thick. The ice was harvest
ed from the pond for use in their
hotels in the summer months. 1t
was exceptionally clear and the large
print of newspaper headline could
be read thru the thickness.
Kellogg enjoys the hunting afford
ed by the Bluffton area and is very
much interested in the restocking ac-
complished by sportsmen organiza-
tions. Like many other sportsmen
of the community he believes in an

interest is the result of promoting
such work in New York State near
his home town of Elizabethton.
With the local fishing season OPEN
ing a week early this year, we find
that the boys have been knocking
| few chips into the frying pan and
why not, meat is meat now days,
and the wife can't keep you from
catching fish or she isn't patriotic.
Here's wishing You guys tight lines.
Neil Duffman made a nice catch
fishing with minnows and worms in
the Water Works Quarry here few
days ago. Twenty-seven Blue Gills
and four Black Bass are enough to
cause anyone to come back for more.
Four of the blue gills were unusual
ly large.
Jesse Mangus hooked two nice
bass between thirteen and fourteen
inches long, using minnows for bait
also. As far as we know the Water
Works is the only Quarry which has
put out good fishing lately.
Morris Kohl and sons were down
to the Water Works Quarry and
they took six bass home with them
too--sounds as if there is fish in
themthar' waters.
Just to refresh your memory as
to what we can legally do in the
line of fishin', a few facts from the
Digest of Fish Laws are in order.
Rock Bass must be above five inches
in length, and daily bag twenty;
Black Bass, ten inches in length,
daily bag limit six; Crappie above
six inches in length, bag limit
twenty per day; there are no length
limits on Sunfsh, Bluegill or Cat
fish, but there is daily bag limit
of twenty per day for the Sunfish
and Bluegill. Resident licenses cost
fifty cents and can be purchased
from any of the following dealers:

new TIRE RATl0NING
ORDER NOW ISSUED;
IS FOR ALASKA ONLY

Written specifically for Alaska, a
new tire rationing order, known as
Ration Order If, has been issued
by the office of Price Administra-
ton in Washington, D. c., and
will become effective in Alaska on
December IS. This is according to
an announcement made by Mrs.
Helene G. Johnson, Territorial Ra-
tioning Executive for the Alaska
Office of Price ADMINISTRATOR
The order will supersede the Re-
vised Tire Rationing Regulations
in effect in Alaska since February,
1912, though abandoned elsewhere
in the country when gasoline ra-
sioning was instituted. The new ra-
ton order is tailored to the special
circumstances existing in Alaska.
In other words, it is Alaska S
own regulation, written to meet
Alaskas own conditions. We be-
lieve it viii meet the essential
transportation needs of the Terri
tory" Mrs. Johnson said.
The new ration order covers only
new tires and tubes, and the list
of eligibility for those. tires and
tubes, while not changed, is more
sharply defined and identified
Briefly stated, it provides that only
three classes of persons may have
tires and tubes those whose work
is essential to the war effort, pub
lie health, and public safety
Used tires, defined as those that
have run more than 1000 miles,
have been removed from the ra-
tioning provisions and may be ex-
changed without certificates at CELL
ing prices as set up in Maximum
Price Regulation l07- Prospective
purchasers are reminded, however,
that there is ceiling on used
