Trout Re-planted
The largest lake poisoning and
replantinK project yet attempted
by the State Game Department is
'chednled for Spencer lake on
September 6th, Alex McRea, State
Game department fish bioloKist re-
ported this week,
With the help of 50 to 80 volun-
teers from the Shelton Sports and
Skeet ehlb using 25 outboard mo-
tor boats, the lake will be cdm-
pletely poisoned by Game depart-
ment men from Mason, Grays
Harbor, Jefferson and Clallam
counties.
I The men will use Rotenone in a
five per cent solution which kills
fish and weeds but is harmless to
other animals and humans•
Scrap fish, including perch,
Spiny rays end bass; will be par-
alyzed and suffocated from the
rotenone which will be put di-
rectly Oil the weed feed and towed
in gunnysacks behind the boats to
contaminate the water for all fish
life•
He added that the lake will be
ready to receive fish in about two
months when the feed will begin
to grow again, but that the Game
department will wait for the new
hatching season before replanting.
The Game department also is
completing plans to establish a
public picnic grounds and lJark-
ing space on the lake to facilitate
fishing for the sports fans.
The land for the project was
donated by H. H. Halbert, own-
er of a resort on Lake Spencer,
aud was chosen from land offered
by both Halbert and Frank Gib-
ler. another lake property owner,
for a 150-foot right-of-way to the
lake.

Lake Spencer to .......................... Shelton Sports,
Be Cleanedand Air Dirft Skeet Club Meets
The Halbert property was chos-
en when it was decided that it
would provide a parking spot more
accessible from the highway•
Two meetings of vol.unt'eer
workers for £he Saturday morning
poisoning session will be held be-
fore that day, McRea said
The meetings, which are being"
sponsored by the Shelton Sports
and Skeet club, will be held Aug-
ust 22 and September 6 in the
Odd Fellows hall.
McRea emphasized that all vol-
unteers must attend the second
meeting in order to learn the area
to which they will be assigned and
to get final instructions.
If the lake is not completely
covered with the rotenone in one
day, the whole project will be
worthless, since .the surviving=ofish
will soon propagate again and fill
the lake by spring.
Anyone interested in the volun-
teer work is invited to contact
either Horace Skelsey, or R. R.
Sleyster before August 22. About
12 more boats and 22 outboards
will be needed for the Saturday
outing.
