Trout And Grayling

Setli Green,in a letter to the Chicago Field, in referring to the mix ing of trout and grayling in the samo waters, makes tlie foilowing statement, which would seem to settle the question: "Tlie fact is we have but few giayling streams, and i f trout are put In they will soon clean the grayling out. I think there are not many streams in this country in which grayling will thrive, and in nearly all of our spring streams brook-trout will do well. In the year 1872 I went to the Au .Sable with Mr. D. II. Fitzhugh, Jr. Itook quite a good many grayling and brought home eighty-four large ones and put tlu-ininourpoundat Caledonia. They lived and seem to do well, but they never have spawned since we have had tliem. I took some spawn while 1 was at the Au Sable,brought tluim home and hatched them ; they have grown to be large fish, but have never spawned. I prepared them spawninggrounds as good to all appearance as they had in their native stream, and watched them during their spawning season, but never saw any signs of their making beds tocast their spawn. I think they would not bu a profttable üsh to raise, and would advise not putting any other flsh in the streams they inhabit, for if yon do they will soon be nurnbered among the things of the past." Potato water, or water in wlücli potatoes have been boiled, is now recomtnended in various quarters as not only an oiïective but an immediate remedy for li;e on cows and other cattle, also for licks. The affected parta are to be bathed with the potato water; one applicution is generally suflicieiit. This remedy (il remedy it provea) has the merit of being exceedingly simple, t'asilyemployed and without danger of in jury to the eattle.
