In the Piseah Federal Game Pre
serve, and located near the head of the
Davidson River: a new, modern fish
cultural establishmen has recently
been completed and placed in opera
tion. Its purposes primarily are tc
provide the numbers, sizes and species
of trout investigation has shown are
needed to develop and maintain good
angling in waters of the Pisgah terri
tory, and to serve as headquarters for
the aquatic biological research nec
essary to prosecute this program.
The new fishery station consists of
18 i''Vruliir and rectangular concrete
pools of various sizes, and is supplied
with aoDiwnmate v 2000 gal.ons 01
water per minute through a 10-inch
pipe line, 915 feet in length. A con
crete dam and intake box constructed
at a point upstream where the channel
and hanks are composed of solid bed
rock, insures the water supply against
the dangers of wash-outs during tne
most severe flood stages.
The huildines at the establishment.
consist of a standard Forest Service
type for-room and bath cottage for
the accommodation of the fish cultur-
ist in charge and his family; a two
car garage ; a generator house in
which has been installed an automatic
o srw) watt litrhtintr plant, and combi
nation work shop, storage, refrigera
tion and feed room, and research laboratory.
This station designed by the wruei,
was constructed and with the excep
tion of scientific apparatus furnished
by the Bureau of Fisheries fully
equipped by the Forest Service. The
work was carried out by CCC boys
from Camp F-14 under the supervision
of Proiect Superintendents John F.
Wioodley and W. F. Dupre. In imme
diate charge of the work on consuui.
tion and landscaping were R. L. John
son and John B. Vomer.
Tha ni-patmn nf this fish cultural
atntkin at this particular locality is the
outcome of a co-operative agreement
between the U. S. Forest Service ann
the U. S. Bureau of Fisheries, in which
the Forest Service was to construct
and equip the station and turn it over
to the Bureau fur operation. In this
operation the Bureau will transport
of its hatcheries, suffi
cient numbers of small fingerling trout
of various kinds to provide tne max
imum output for re-stocking those wa
ters within the Federal Preserve. The
Bureau has also detailed a trained fish
it, wi Mr Reuben O. Knuth, who
vide the expencm ui..hit 't.? v4,
fish foods, ice, etc., and the necessary
personnel for scientific research.
In connection with this agreement
between the two Government agencies
a Fish Management Project has been
set up jn which the four major water
sheds within the Preserve will be . in
tensively studied from every conceiv
able angle and all future fish planting
and opened and closed fishing seasons
based upon these findings. It may be
remembered that three years ago, a
preliminary program was instituted by
the Forest Service and the Bureau of
Fisheries, and a temporary plan
adopted in which the procedure was
broken in;o four steps
(1) stream survey; (2 stream im
provement; (3) fish planting program.
and (4) a check up of the result to be
used as a tvisis for modification in
formulating a policy for final adoption,
lurmir the summers of llA4-o-t, the
first two steps were undertaken and
completed as far as conditions would
allow. lue to recent road construc
tion many of the physical and biolog
ical characteristics of the streams
have undergone material changes ne
cessitatinir a re-examination of the
biological and thermal conditions. To
carry out this investigation, the Bu
reau of Fisheries has detailed Mr.
Thomas K. Chamberlain, a trained
bio'.ogist who will u e the facilities of
the laboratory at the Hearing Station
as his headquarters.
The new Pisgah Fish Management
Project has as its primary objective
the demonstration of scientific stream
management as a means of improving
angling conditions. The general plan
has been broken up into 14 seconuaiy
objectives as follows;
To determine the biological, chem
ical and thermal conditions c-xisiting in
the streams of the Pisgah Game 1 re
serve; the types and quantities of food
utilized by trout at different seasons
and under varying conditions; the re
lationship between the ages and sizes
of trout and their habits, growth, con
dition and migration; the most prac-
tkal methods of securing a game

the stocking intensities ot trout el

ported by these waters; the most suit

ures for stocking these streams to pro.

for the public; the most suitable pol
icy of regulating and recording the
fishing on each stream; to determine
the survival and migration of young
fish that have been planted; to de
termine the advisability of additional
stream improvement work on these
waters, and to study the effect of such
improvements on production ."of - fish

Two Counties In
State Vote Wet
Columbus county, rich agricultural
ountv of the extreme southeastern
of the State, voted about two
to one against legalized liquor stores
in an election held last luesday unuer
:he new North Carolina county option
law. It was the third county to hold
an election on the same issue this
spring. Columbus had voted dry in
previous elections in which liquor was
the issue.
Dare county, the easternmost county
of the State, very small in population
and including a large area of Albo- i
marie sound and of the famous sand
dunes, was officially declared to have
voted wet by a majority of six in its
election of April 24, which was carried
by the, drys by a majority ot ii votes
on the face of the official returns, as
originally announced.
Protests and complaints of alleged
irregularities prompted the county
board of elections to make an investi
gation of one precinct with the re
sult that 25 dry ballots and one wet
one were thrown out.

ced an appeal would be taken to the
State Board of Elections.
