East Side road, baa converted the little lake that Ilea In the ravine at tha rear of hla borne Into a beautiful fish pond. II recently received from the Govern ment izoo brook trout which he placed lo the lake. Professor O'Mslley, who has charge of the Government hatcheries In this state and In Washington, and whose headquarters are at Oregon City, where a large hatchery has been established, recently visited Mr. Carter. After In specting the private reserve of the East Side orcharding he was enthusiastic over the prospects It offered. He saia ha thought the trout would grow quick ly In their new hbme. The Caddy" worms, which are numerous In this sec lion, he says, will furnish sufficient food for the young trout. The minnows. when placed In their new quadra, were about an Inch and a half long-. The fish expert thinks they will soon propagate. Although known to but few of the valley's residents because of Its seclu sion, the miniature lake, whlchl" about J00 feet long and 100 feet wide. Is most beautiful. It Is bordered by a growth of fir trees. At the water's edge, at one end. a luxuriant growth of reeds ana tall mint plants rear. At the west end. where the little body of water Is fed by a spring- which rises in the ridge, a number of large rocks line the banks, part of them partially submerged by the water.

Mr. Carter, who Is enthusiastic ove his reserve, plans to turn the whoi aurroun dins- sDot Into a well-kept llttl park. He haa already stocked It with a number of California quail.
