Club, about 4000 rainbow trout to be
planted in Dairy and Gales Creek in a
short time. The Rod and Gun Club
have been in correspondence with the
fish hatcheries during the bast winter
and have at last suceeded in getting a
good hatch for these creeks. The fishes
will be shipped to Forest Grove in
special tanks and taken to the streams
named by members of the club. The
boys feel that they will be amply paid
for their efforts as the streams are prac
