FAMOUS SPEED BOATS ' BURNED AT MOORINGS HYTHE. EngUnd.' Aug. 3. (AP) Several famous speedboats, including Miss Britain 1, -winner of this year'b and last yar's Detroit News trophy, were destroyed by lire today on the premises of the British Power Boat company With Rod and Gun A fishing paradise Is being created In tho Devil's Peak region, where seven small lakes are located. The largest, Alta. was recently replenished with a plant of 10.000 rainbows from Vie Butte Falls hatching. This plant ing was effected through the cooper ation of the United States forest service.' Everett Moore of the hatch ery took the fish to Lodge Pole and they were transported from that sta tion by pack into the lake. The transplanting was successful, as only a dozen fish died. They average In length one and a half Inches. While at the lakes, Moore made a survey of planting done seven years ago and found lots of fish In even the smallest lake. Although the lakes are small, the water remains cold throughout the summer and the fish thrive. i Opportunities for farmers to make a paying business of the prorogation of game birds and sale of shooting rights to sportsmen, are called to the attention of the agricultural popula tion by Roy Craft, editor of the "Hlgftcllmber looks 'em over' column in the Eugene Register-Guard. Craft refers.-to a booklet entitled "Game Birds; How to Make Them Pay on Your Farm," and emphasizes the opportunities awaiting farmers who are willing to do the reasonable amount of work entailed. "There is, the booklet announces, "a wide demand in the country for good game bird shooting. It Is equal ly true little of it Is available today. While the number of sportsmen con stantly Increases, the supply of game birds decreases steadily. Accordingly, the booklet asserts, the farmer and the rural land owner hold the key to the upland game bird situation In the United Btates. But few farmers appreciate game birds can be made a real farm asset," Craft writes. HOW THEY STAN D (By the Associated Press.) - Coast. W. L. Pet.
