To Re-Stock the Iroquois River With Young Fish.

Richard R. Meents, of a member of the state fish commission, has written to Judge Hooper that he is planning to place some shipments of young fish, at state expense, in the Iroquois river. Something like 6,000,000 young pikeperch or wall-ewed pjke have been turned loose in the Kankakee river this summer by the commissioners in stocking that stream. It is planned to make tbe streams in this part of the state attracive to fishermen. The fish which are to be placed in tbe Iroquois river will probably be of different kind than those in the Kankakee. The stream is muddier and the kind of fish selected will be those varieties which are best adapted for the water. —Watseka, 111. TOnes-Demo-erat •
