W. J. O'Brien, superintendent of
the state fisheries, has advised Lloyd
Thomas that the state fish car will
arrive In Alliance early in October
with a large consignment of Blue
Gill Sunflsh, Striped Perch and Yel
low Bullheads for planting in Bronco
lake. Twenty-five years ago a large
number of fish were planted in the
lake but the dry years following re
duced the water so much that the
percentage of alkali was very strong
and most of the fish failed to aurviev
the potash and other alkali ingred
ients which were very strong in the
lake. During the last few years the
amount of water In the lake has in
creased to such an extent that it is
practically fresh, as tests made dur
ing recent months have shown. If
the fish lire and thrive In the lake It
will make It. one of the most popular
fishing resorts in western Nebraska,
as the lake covers more than a sec
tion atii Is quite deep In some parts.

hearted railroad man assisted them
out of the dilemma.
