In 1S75 and 1876, Mr. Stanley's duties as fish commis- sioner prevented his .i^ivinir this matter the necessary attention ; hut the young fry were so successfully hatched the first two seasons that a sudden increase of small trout has been noted in the stream itself and as far up as the Hema Ponds, four miles above the hatching- houses.
