FISHKRMANN lWRADISK. Fighty-Fiie Thousand Acres In Fisgsih National Forest. May l.Uli (ho Government will open ii flshorumu's paradise to the anglers of the I*nit<??l Slates. It is the N5.000 acre Pisgah National Forest the 125 square miles of the late George \V. VanderMlt's inouutaiii estate bought by the nation to serve as part of the' forest reservation protecting the head waters of navigable streams. It com prise the watershed of the Davidson and .Mills rivers which diverge from nearby sources fan-shaped to the French Itrond river. There arc so many brook and rain how trout in th??so streams ami their trihutaries that if they were all taken out at Mice'the water would fall a foot, it is claimed. No proof of this is pos sible, however, because the Govern ment will not allow the claimants to make tin? neoeasary demonstration. On the contrary, the Forest Service which has charge of the property in tends to conserve the llsh so that there will always be an abundant supply, and to this end has made regulations which the wardens will enforce with the pow er of the II. S. Courts. The results of the coming season will determine whether these restrictions will h?? ]??S' sened or enlarged. Two thousand fishing days are to bo allowed in 1917, these Indng repre sented by jK'rmit.s for which a charge of $1 a (lay will be made, female mem l>ors' of j>ermittee's family l>eing charged one-half of tills sum, and child ren under 14 years of age being al lowed to fish free. Not more than four days fishing will be permitted to any person. Not more than 1,500 days will be available before July 1st, 500 days being reserved from then until the close of the season which is Septeml?er 1st for brook trout, and October 1st for the raLnbow or California variety. ..Application for i>ermlts are now re ceivable. No official announcement has been made as to the course' to be followed in case the applications exceed the 2,000-day limit. It will riot cause surprise If this case develops bcoatise there is no trout preserve, in ? Eastern United States at least, open to the public which couii/ares with this princely domain of mountain and stream. It is ten miles southeast from Ashe ville where its peaks and promontories show a skyline green or gray with the changing seasons?a great garden in the wilderness of the Blue R'.dge. There are ridges and-bear cavern rock cliffs and chestnut-timbered slope* ris ing to the sharp sjrire of 5,757 feet high Mt I*lsgah, little valley* and grassy plades, Impenetrable tangles of snowy-flowered rhododendron, splotehe-* of azalea and rose-tinted kalmia, do;? l>errys flaming white in Spring an ' sourwcKsl scarlet in the Fall. There are fern? and galas, and violets, and lofty heights seem waves of a stormy sea. This i'i a garden of rare variety be cause latitude makes for Southern flora, and altitude brings the growth of the further North. Vegetatloji is profuse hifHUse the rainfall is heavy, and so the streams run full aud fast? ami seine run faster, "Just a hell-yel iin" with a crescemto of crashing waters. Davidson and Mills rivers mainly run swift hut not torrential, roek-bottomed mostly, with some earth doors to darken pools for big fish. There is a pleasing variety of fishing water. The imported s|>eekled trout have banished the indigenous speekled . in-! to the headwaters to associate with the deer, wild turkey, l>ear ami plieasanN. lr is estimated there are 'J.">!)0 deer In the forest.

Fishing is i>ermitted "Only with unbailed artificial fly hook," aud the use of nets is unlawful. Hut who wants bait when a feathered hook flicked lightly on the foaming stream will bring a lightning strike from the rainbow-handed California or the pink speckled brook trout. A day's eatch Is limited to 1"> fishs and the finny folks must not bo disturbed between 8 I*. ML and r> A. M. Brook trout less than 6 inches long and rainbow under N inches must l>e restored to the stream.
