If the station at Branscombs is established and .should prove to be too far up the river, another location farther down must be found, if the conditions in Eel River are to be maintained. It is necessary that a sufficient number of fry be planted each season to insure a good run of I'li;. 9. A truck load of trout fry for pointing in the of Trinity County.

A total of 1,757,000 trout fry have been distributed in the streams of the northwest coast counties, Humboldt, Mendocino and Trinity, during the seasons of 1918 and 1019, from the Ft. Seward hatchery. The fry w^ere given a very wide distribution, most of them being steel- heads and being planted in tlio Ee] River and tributaries. The INIad River section was also given a fine lot of fry and fishing is reported to be excellent in that district as a result of the continued stocking of the streams. During the biennial period two million Chinook Salmon were reared at the Fort Seward Hatchery and planted in Eel River, Mad River and the tributaries of Humboldt Please note that these images are extracted from scan
