The spectacle of a farmer finding forty pounds of trout floundering about in his meadow is a sight to make a true sportsman weep. It has been suggested that if our farmers and ditch managers would put a wire screen over the intake of their respective ditches, the evil would soon be remedied; otherwise it is only a question of time when our streams will be almost entirely depopulated of its speckled beauties."en-USNO KNOWN COPYRIGHT The organization that has made the Item available reasonably believes that the Item is not restricted by copyright or related rights, but a conclusive determination could not be made.
