The Summit County Marble Works of Iloytsville received n carload of marble from Vermont this week. The freight on the utovo was $432. I hud tbe pleasure last week of visiting visit-ing the Miller A Hansen 1 Ituery and Hatchery, located near Murray, which Is the only one devoted to the propagation propaga-tion of trout, of any magnitude, ill the State; and through the courtesy ol the attendant was shown tbe grounds, ponds, tlih and hatchery, and given full ex-plaratlons, ex-plaratlons, llelievlng tnat we have In our valley Just as good locations for similar sim-ilar Industries, ou otherwise practically northlest slough ground, I glvo a few facts glesned, which may stimulate some one that may want to venture an enterprise enter-prise of this kind. Tbe ponds of tho batchery which I visited are about one rod wide by ten rods long andtwoor three feet deep, running parrellel with each other, about five or six In number, supplied by spring orwell water. About the last of October and for two or three monttiJ'aKerwaid, tbe work of spawn ing Is carried on The hitching Is done , nrtlflenlly as a much larger per cent Is secuud. This Is done by taking the (lib out with nets, stripping them of I their eggs, and with the malo germ, are placed In trays in the hatchery, kept In fresh water. In thirty daya they are developed Into a flih, and a month later may be placed In tbe pond. Last season they hatched out 600.COO trout. It does one's eyes good to see them at feeding time, Jumping to the top of the water to catch the floating food. This hatchery Is jet In its Infancy, being but four years old. They have In stock about 000,000 trout one and tw o years old, having Jait marketed all three years old at SO cents a pound. Fish are great feeders tbe more you feed the falter they grow. These fish are consuming 2,000 pounds ol shorts and 1,600 pounds of liver and lights per month, which Is cooked for them, excepting the liver, which Is fed raw. In addition lo this they coLiuine all vegetables wllhlnreach. Now, figuring figur-ing 000,000 three-year-olds annually after af-ter the first year at 10 rents per pound would mean (00,000, which is no small amount to be taken oat of an entirprlse requiring so small an outlay, Ii requires but one man's lime to run a hatchery of this sire.
