Show Fish And Game News Notes . . . At the traps on Taylor's Creek, a tributary of East Canyon Reservoir, Reser-voir, 33,640 native trout eggs were taken yesterday. The taking of eggs on Taylor's Creek is worthy of note as previous to this time no spawn has been taken there. Because of the high water and the fact that the stream recedes so fast, most spawn is lost before the eggs have time to hatch. In the past many of the spawning fish themselves have been lost. There is no egg taking on the East Canyon stream itself above the reservoir. It is felt that there is ample good spawning grunds to handle its run of naturallv spawning fish. One-hundred chukar partridge eggs were taken from the Price Game Farm yesterday. This rep-, resents a peak in egg production up to this date.

Just send a penny postcard to Old Hi today, in care of this newspaper, and shortly you'll be having more fun and better luck with the many sunfish and their cronies that lurk in the weeds of lake and river. , fawn are often seen and thought j lost or orphened. They should in all cases be left where found. If there is evidence of tragic circum-i stances, the Department c-f Fish and Game should be notified. It is felt timely also to ask all drivers to exercise special care regarding re-garding bords on the highways.
