IS MONTANA STATE FISH AND GAME COMMISSION tive trout, the rainbow, steelheads, eastern brook, Loch Leven—the gamiest fish in cold western waters. Millions of these fingerlings are being planted annually. The task of taking small trout back into the mountains where trails have not been cut by forest rangers or settlers, and where it is necessary to plant them in the headwaters of creeks, has always been a difficult task until an improved method was recently adopted in Ji'dhilioir trout iveiffliing 2fi pounds caught In/ (ieorge Elliott in Cliff Lake. The ordinary ten-gallon milk can that has been used in the past was difficult to handle on a pack horse and frequently resulted in injury to the horses, because of the small area of contact or bearing, due to the shape of the can. S. B. Locke, in the Federal forest service, has developed a device to be used with almost any square five-gallon can and which is described in the Big Horn, the official publication of the state commission. A round hole six inches in diameter is cut in the top of the can and over this is fastened with small stove bolts a cylinder made of good weight galvanized iron, which is five inches high. The cover to this cylindrical opening is in the form of an inverted cone, which is clamped to the top of the cylinder with a metal.
