TROUT IN NIOBRARA STREAMS
Dr. Mackay Writes of Trout , the Fata
June Bug and Senator's Fishery.
Dr. J. H. Mackay , of Norfolk , has
written the following interesting let
ter to his friend , Sandy Griswold
sporting editor of the Omaha World
Herald :
"The reports coming in from those
who have fished this season the
streams running into the NIohran
river would indicate that brook trou
will flourish in the equable waters ol
Nebraska and that they attain te
larger size here than in mountain
streams.
"The Bazilc and Long Pine creeks
have enjoyed considerable fame as
trout streams , and now the Eagle , li
Holt county , must be added to th <
above. R. L. Beveridge has just re
turned from a trip to the Eagle am
states that lie had good fishing am
that the trout ran from one-half pounc
to one pound in weight. He opene <
the stomachs of ills catch and fount
them crammed with small insects o
all varieties , except June bugs. In on <
he found a small crawfish.
"In the Long Pine creek the trou
are feeding on the June bugs with fata
results. Dead fish found in tha
stream invariably contain June bugs
Mr. Beveridge reports that Holt conn
ty streams are full of pickerel , am
that they are monsters. He saw sev
eral that looked like ton pounders , hu
that their habitat was swarming will
minnows , frogs and tadpoles and tha
the rains have brought Into the pooli
vast numbers of worms , larvae , fieli
mice , insects and fledgling birds , am
he could not seduce the pickerel ti
accept any of the variety of lures in
used.
"The trout were placed in Eagl <
creek three years ago , and it wouli
seem that the abundant food suppl ;
of Nebraska gives them growth am
vigor.
"By the way , Ex-Senator F. J. Hal
Is raising fish on quite a large seal
on his ranch near Atkinson. He ha
three artificial ponds fed by spring
and he feeds his fishes all the yeat
His team makes a trip several time
each week to town and gets fish fooi
from the meat markets. To the car ]
and other sucker fishes , in addition I
corn , are fed the contents of beeves
stomachs , and the other flshes ge
chopped liver and meat scraps. Ii
winter he cuts houes In the Ice am
feeds them and they eat almost a
much as In summer. The senate
maintains that It Is all a question o
food how much a fish shall weigh at :
certain age and he keeps his fishe
fed all year like his cattle. Very sir
cerely yours. J. H. Mackay.

WONDERFUL DEVELOPMENT OF
THREE SHORT SUMMERS.
THE NEAT NEW FARM HOUSES
Magnificent Red Barns , Reglsterei
Herds of Cattle , Hogs and Chickens
Rich Fields of Bulging Grain Lam
Prices High.
Gregory , S. 1) . , July IS. From i
stuff correspondent : Gregory county
South Dakota , lias developed taste
than any other new country In tin
world. People who know say that in
tract of public land ever thrown opei
to settlement by the United State !
government has been known to de
velop as quickly as Gregory county li
the llosehud. And It is only takes i
look at the country today to carr ;
conviction upon this claim.
Four brief summers ago--it seomi
Imt yesterday that the Bonesteel rusl
was on this raw prairie , stretchliii
out like a carpet for miles and mllci
In every direction , was the home o
the roving Hose-hud Sioux , the ante
lope , the big grey wolf and the Ameri
can eagle. Today it Is an old settlcc
country with bulging wheat and oati
and corn Holds , a land thickly popu
lated and dotted here and there am
everywhere with mammoth farn
houses , well built barns and , even
few miles , prosperous , thriving , grow
inn towns.
The progress wrought out of th <
virgin prairie of the Rosebud in three
short summers by the Gregory countj
homesteader calls forth only amaze
ment and praise from the strangei
visiting for the first time this newlj
settled , remarkably developed region
Their strides In realm development
are almost beyond conception and bo
lief.
There Is an air of maturity about
these Rosebud towns and these Rose
bud farms which one expects to fine
only In a region that lias been undei
the white man's plow for twentj
years.
When the train stops at a Rosebud
town , you are confronted by a new
red depot and a driver of the hole !
bus. Up the main street you arc
whizzed a street which at once at
tracts your interest because of the
great stretches of broad cement side
walks lining either side. And you arc
surprised to find a hotel that is big anil
well furnished and altogether as
roomy and comfortable as any you
could expect to see in towns many
years older. At street intersectionf
there are city water hydrants which
afford fire protection to the town fire
protection sorely needed by many ot
the older country towns during their
boyhood days. And then there arc
street lights. Gas lights afford Illum
ination the gas tank being connected
with each light pole. It is almost like
a street in Ix > s Angeles.
And that is not all. Out in the
edge of town there are scattered new
homes that would grace cities anywhere -
whore some of these homes being
built away out here on the frontier
at a cost of as high as $0,000.
The Rosebud Farms.
But the farms around the towns and
between the towns show what's out
here on the Rosebud. For upon the
farm development rests the super
structure of the townbulldlng. And
Nature , aided by the white man's plow
and the white man's pluck , has cer
tainly made things hum out here in
these new fields. A man who drove
out from Bonesteel during the rush
to look at the reservation , would
scarcely be able to believe his eyes
were ho to wake up in Gregory count >
today. For where was the red man's
tepee , today stands large prosperous
looking farm residences , well built
and newly painted , homes nffordlnp
all the comforts to he found In an }
farm homes anywhere ; and these art
magnificent new barns , built upor
scientific principles In accordance will
latest Ideas , and prepared to shekel
the golden grain of a summer's harvest
as well as the sleek looking cattle and
horses that prevail.
A Typical Rosebud Farm.
Imagine driving along a country
road and coming to a farm house
standing some distance back from the
main road , built upon an elevation con
nected with the front gate by a gentk
slope of green grass dotted here and
there with a flower bed and parked
with little trees just getting a start
in life ; the house is modern in ap
pearance , is painted a clean cream and
Is fronted by a comfortable wide
porch. From inside the house conn
sounds of a high grade phonograpl
reproducing Melba's solos. A shor
distance behind the house a mammotl
red barn lifts Its proud head. At one
side of the farm yard there are c
series of scientific pig pens such af
you might see In an agricultural col
lege. Inside the pens are reglsteret
porkers and their little ones ; off lr
the distance , grazing peacefully upor
the side hill , are a bunch of registered
cattle ; around the barn run pure white
chickens that show their blood breed
ing. And surrounding the farm house
and barn are great stretches of deei
green corn and ripening whnat an <
oats. Such a picture one would hardlj
expect to find In a country that nevei
felt the blade of the plow until three
summers ago. Yet such a picture Is
no uncommon sight in the new coum
try of Gregory county.
Such a picture as this , In fact , ii
presented by the farm of Wayne B
Carlock , just a ten minutes' drive
frrjm the town of Gregory , and Mr
Carlock sayu that his farm is enl )
one of the typo that may bo found
nnywhore In the county.
The oats will go sixty bushels to the
acre , the wheat twenty , and corn ,
though late In spots , lias every pros
pect of making a bumper yield. Things
will hum this fall when the crop comes
In and people are now living In hopex
against hull. As a result of thu
rapid development of this raw prairie
land Into a so-quick maturity , price *
are high for farm lands already. It
Is said that one farmer near Gregory
refused an offer of f8,200 for I (50 ( acre *
tills summer.
