BANG! FISH HATCHERY i ; J ' s j I j J J j BARTONS REACH THEIR GOLDEN MILESTONE Mr. and Mrs. John II. Barton celebrated their golden wedding anniversary with a reception and sumptuous dinner for eighty relatives, Saturday, October 27th, at two o'clock, in the Braver high school, with a delightful free dancing party in the American Legion hall Saturday night to which all their friends were invited. Dinner was served in the school dining room, where tables beautifully decorateid in gold, and white, with vases of gold cnrysaninemums a$ groaned beneath the bounteous array of delectable foods. An impromptu program was enjoyed in the auditorium, wherej old and young Joined in tne Grandparents mingled their voices in e the singing of songs with the voices of grandchildren and Songs of today and appropriate readings had theiir places on the program, making for one of the most pleasant family reunions known. Both Mr. and Mrs. Barton have g residents of been almost Beaver county, living at Greenville before and since their marriage, Oct? ober 27, 1878. The marriage ceremony was performed by the father of Mr. Barton, William Barton, at that time' serving as Justice of the Peace for Greenville. The Barton family came to this county from Parowan, where John H, Barton was born; living first In Beav: er and later going to Greenville where Mr. Barton engaged in the farm and livestock business with his brother. Mrs. Barton, with her parents, Mr. and Mrs; David Morgan, came from Paragoonah when she was center-piece- s, merry-makin- g. old-tim- n. From Game Warden Cy Davis we have obtained some figures of interest to the sportsmen of Beav.er county, relative to the work accomplished at the local hatchery the past season and as to the number of hunting and fishing licenses issued the past year, showing the revenue derived from the sale of thepe licenses. The number of $1.00 license sold up to Oct. 31, were 265; f 2.00 license 565; $3.00 license, 538; $5.00 li- cense, 3; $15.00 license, 3. Deducting the 10 cents commission allowed for issuing licenses, this amounts to a net total of $2,84.60, received in Beaver county from the sale of hunting and fishing license. This alone more than pays the expense of maintaining the local hatch, ery for thej entire year. During the past season, 790,000 trout fry were produced at the Beaver hatchery. Of this number 35,000 were German Browns, 519,000 Rainbows and 236,000 were Brook trout. Practically all these fish were placed in the streams and lakes of Beaver county, with the exception of 108,000 which were disposed of in Iron coun-- i ty. Eleven thousand Rainbows are, being held by Mr. Davis in the nursery ponds at the hatchery this season, as an experiment. These will be planted as yearlings, and if the plan proves successful, it is probable that more will be held over in the future, as the yearlings stand a much better chance to survive than those planted . when smaller. life-lon- girls, well known to every resident of Beaver county, were educated in the public schools of their home) town and later attending the Murdock academy.
