With Rod and Gun Fish ln Fish lake are still dying from the unknown disease which has attacked them. It Is learned here. Persons at the lake In the past few days say that t.'ie screen at the lake's outlet Is plugged with the dying trout. Because so little Is known of the diseases of fish, there seems to be nothing that can be done to atop the ravages of the fungus. The fungus can be stopped ln many fish by ti eating them with a salt water bath. Eastern brool: trout are not migra tory however, and It Is doubtful if the salt would.be of any benefit to t,Vm. Specimens of the diseased fish have been sent to state game of ficials and to biologists at Oregon State college. W. W. Walker sent several of the fungus-bearing trout to Mat Ryckman, state superinten dent of hatcheries. Persona who favor allowing all fish to spawn naturally and oppose the stocking from hatcheries will be In terested to learn that nearly all lakes ln southern Oregon, where the best fishing Is now reported, were stocked originally, either by Individuals or organizations. Diamond lake. Crater Lake. Lake of 1,-ie Woods and the little Fish lake on the Umpqua were all stocked with flngerllngs from the Butte Falls hatchery, fishermen are pointing out. Work on the proposed federal fish hstchery for Elk creek will be done between spawning and hatching seasons as near as possible so as not to Interfere with fish In the pools there now. It Is learned, Deed for the land Is now ln .1e hands of the department of Justice where final plans lor the 160.000 hatchery are under way. A valuable part of the new hatch ery will be sufficient pools to allow the trout to grow to the six and eight-Inch sizes before they are re leased. Previously many of the flng erllngs have been lost because of the change of food and water conditions. T,h new plant will also provide ample cold storsge space In which food for the fish can be kept.
