Trout are trout In Montana, nnd
even the babies insist on wild mus
tang meat for breakfast.
It soundH like a tall tale of a
western yarn-spinncr, but officials
of the American Game Protective
association firo nssured that It is
a solemn fact which Is causing a
lot of head -scratching among
Montana's trout experts.
Tho baby trout, according to the
Montana fish and game depart
ment, are helping to enuso nn
alarming reduction In the number
of wild cnyuse on tho open range;
but If tho fate of the trout, not
tho mustang, that is worrying the
department.
It's al! a matter of vltnmins,
Recording to the department. Itahy
trout must have their vitamin like
human babies, and that is where
tho horse comes In. Mustang
rounded up on the open prairie
are kilted In largo numbers and
packed at a Hut to packing-house
for shipment to Kuropc. Hut the
liver, rich In vitamins, have re
mained In Montana to supply vim
and vigor to baby trout at the
state's 14 hatchorie.
The 72. 000.000 "f i n g e r I I n g"
game fish raised yearly at these
hatcheries havo thrived on a mix
ture of liver nnd cereal, but now
the wild horse in disappearing, and
human beings, also in search of
vitamins at the doctor' orders,
havo made, the price of beef liver
prohibitive.
Ho tho Htate fish and, game de
partment, following modern scien
tific method of conserving wild
life of all kind, 1 trying to find
a way to keep the wild mountain
trout wild after tho supply of liver
Is exhausted.
Kxperiment havo been conduct
ed with dozen of different kind
of vitamin-beating foods, ranging
all tho way from dried carp to
Mexican pinto beans, but officials
of tho American (iamo Protective
association are Informed that there
Is still n chance for ome young
scientist to make a name for him
elf by discovering a diet as good
as the llver-and-cereal mixture.

Avery, president of the American
Game Protective association.
In order to meet the motor traf
fic kill in New Jersey thus far
this season, tho fish and game
commission of (hat state has
placed nn order for the Importa
tion of r.nou additional western
cottontail rabbits next year. The
order will bring New Jersey' Im

The enormous toll taken of

charged to the raising of the speed
limit for cars, carcIrssneN of mo

of the helpless creatures by cruel
