FOREST SERVICE : PUTS TROUT IN BARREN LAKES Rainbows Planted in Ten Lakes on Baranof and Two on Chichagof A start toward lakes of this district w been made by the U Service, it was announced t by Wellman Holbrook, Assistant Re- gional Forester.

Baranof lakes planted were on the south and west areas of the island and many of them are chain lakes which should give the trout a long range, the official explained. Blue Lake, east of Sitka, and El- fendahl, north of the Chichagof mine were planted on Chichagof Island. About 50 trout were placed in each lake. There was some lost in handling, he reported, but it is believed that all the fish released were in excellent condition, “None of the lakes planted had trout in them Refore,”. Holbrook said, “but our studies indicate that the fish should do well in them. We will watch them carefully and if the experiment is successful prob- ably more lakes will be planted next year."
