SOI Til I'MPOl'A lln;AL FOH l.LACK I LASS PROPAGATION Deputy Fish Warden To Itecommend Planting Them Hero-Hatch of Trout Fly IteleuMod, The likelihood of black bass being planted In tho South Dmpqua River Is again strong, after tho disouirng Ing statement made here two Aeeks ago by Deputy Fish Warden It. K. Clanton Local anglers who have been trying to secure bass for the river hero received substantial en couragement today from another deputy warden, Thomas J. Craig, who was sent here hy Chief Warden Fin ley lo plant trout fry in the North I'mpqun. Mr. Craig, aHer an Inves tigation of conditions, declared him self emphatically In favor or supply ing the South I'mpqua with bass and will make an unqualified recommen dation to that effect to Mr. Finley. Clanton when here expressed him self opposed to planting bass In the South Dnipqua, not because he thought the stream was not adapted for their propagation,, but because he feared Ihey would mlgrato into the North t'nipqiia and exterminate the trout, as they are doing in other riv ers. Craig declares that bass will not inhabit a stream as cold as the North Pmpquu. Furthermore, he de clared, the North Umpquii affords neither proper food for bass nor the right kind of places for spawning grounds. The South Umpqua, on the other hand, affords both. In fact the South Cmpqua River Is the best stream In the state for tho propaga tion of bass, according to Mr. Craig, Mr. Craig today released 18G.000 trout fry of tho Rainbow and brook varieties. Some of them were plant ed in Deer Creek, but tho bigger part went into tne North umpqua, up as far as Rock Crook, whero lltl.OOO alone were planted.
