Millions of young trout for Washington streams
A proposed measure by the State Fish Protective association would plant five hundred million fry annually in Washington streams starting next January. The bill, led by State Senator Myers of Davenport, would close all hatcheries except one on the Spokane river and expand that facility at no extra state cost. The legislature may also be asked to require bright red coats for big game hunters to reduce hunter danger. Colonel Andy Mulligan seeks a boxing bill for limited length bouts under supervision to curb meal ticket scrappers.
