Catfish are now biting good and some of the boys have returned wtih 65 fish being big catches, as high as taken by one fisherman at the pumps. From now on every good day will see some of the boys hiking for the lake or the Jordan narrows, and it will sure of be tough on the fish because most the boys know how to catch them. During these warm days it is easy to gather angleworms (night crawlers) at night with a light. A catfish simply cannot pass by one of these big juicy worms, and all those who use them creels invariably return with their filled with the homy tribe. cat To a majority, the skinning of a is fish is an undesirable job, but it work as it is just as easy to do this is to scale the ordinary fish.

One can get to the pumps by taking a rig from at Lehi. Points on the Jordan river, the narrows can be easily reached by to get to taking the Orem. It is easy the lake by going to American Fork and leaving the car behind a short distance. However, a few warm days will make the roads passable so that automobiles can travel to nearly all points. to Many of the fishermen would like see. Dave Madsen give more attention to the bass. The state should secure several ideal spawning ponds where the fish could be taken care of and from which the fish could be reared and distributed to all suitable waters of the state. Bass are easy of propais gation and grow very fast, and there one-ha- lf no better sport than to get one on a line of say four or five pounds in weight. In clear water, bass will readily take a fly, spinner or almost any kind of bait offered the fish, and they are very gamey. We have several riv- -' ers in the state and large reservoirs and lakes which could be stocked with the fish. The department should not stop with bass, but should also import a good perch, of which there are many species, but any one of which makes a good table fish and also one which will take the hook at all times of the year. A car of bass should be turned loose in Bear Lake. It has been said that bass will not thrive in Bear lake, but that water gets warm in the summer months and there is no better water in the country than it for bass. It is generally clear at all times of the year, owing to the gravel and rocky shore line all the way around the lake. Owing to the large use of gill nets at Bear Lake by market fishermen who have been allowed to do as they please, they have about caught out all the trout. Thousands of tons of trout have been marketed from Bear lake and that is the reason there are very few trout remaining in the lake. It would make one of the best bass ponds in the country, and the sportsmens clubs ought to get some bass and plant them there. Spawners should be taken from Utah lake and turned loose in Bear lake. A thousand big fish would soon make good fishing If they were protected from the seine. BEES HAVE STRONG LINEUP FOR SEASONS WORK Game With Chicago Cubs Today Will Give Fair Line On Team. Opening Seventeen more days and the baseball fans will see the Beees in acton against the Portland team, which will be the opening game here of the Pacific Coast league. Manager Duffy Lewis reports that the boys are in fine physical condition at Fresno, where they are in training, and all they need is brushing up on the fine points of the game. One thing is certain, that the Salt Lake team is a much better team than we had last year and if the other coast teams have not strengthened their lineups in comparison, the Bees will lead them all a merry chase for the pennant. The first real exhibition game of the season will be played with the Chicago Cubs this afternoon, and the batting lineup as arranged will probably hold good throughout the remainder of the season. The lineup will be: han, second baser Vitt, third base; Lewis, left field; Strand, center field; Wilhoit, right field; Leslie, first base; Pearce, shortstop; Peters, catcher. The reserves held are Matzen for Lewis; Fredericks for Strand, and Kinsella for Wilhoit. Coumbe, McCabe, Meyers and Kallio.have their wings in good condition and are re&dy to go. The team will arrive here several days before the opening date, April 10, and eevTy body, hopes and prays that the weather man will take his vacation in order that good weather may prevail for; the opening game.

PROBATE AND GUARDIANSHIP NOTICES. Perfect Shot Shell Don Morrif.on, professional shooter and representative of the Peters Cartridge company, is in the city on a visit from the Pacific coast and the' boys are glad to see him again. The Peters shotgun shell is about as perfect as ammunition can be made, and the shell embodies everything that has been sugested and tried to make improvement. The utmost strength has been put into the shell because of steel reinforcement. The paper wrapper ,the battery cup and base wad are all swedged in making it impossible to leak gas, back fire, split the shell, or pull the paper from the base metallic copper and steel reinforced cup. The wadding used is the best that can be had on the market and will pass the most critical inspection. The shell is has a hard thoroughly enough crimp to withstand the action of a pump-guand the bevel edge of the shell makes it easy to slide into the chamber in loading. It is a shell that the most critical cannot find fault with. It is simply a perfect shell and one upon which the gunner can depend upon in patera, penetration and safety. Morrison says that the extra strength has been put into the shell to take care of the high breech pressure caused by dried out smokeless powders. When powder is fresh an ordinary shell will do, but when the powder dries out shells go to pieces and sometimes guns are ruined and shooters have narrow escapes from injuries. water-proofe- ANNUAL MEETING. d, n Consult County Clork or tho Signors for Further Information.
