Fertilizing Fish Ponds at Corning Fish Cultural Station in 1949

Two men standing on the bank of fish pond, with the man on the left using a shovel to throw fertilizer into the water - he's just released the fertilizer, which can be seen in mid-air, with him holding the shove up right and out in front of him. Another man standings to the right of him, holding a metal fisheries pail. Behind them is a fisheries pickup truck. On the right, a low water control structure juts out into the pond. In the distance is a line of trees.
