Text Appearing Before Image:
It is intended to rear the bal-ance for breeders, as an experiment. These fish did not attain asgreat a growth as the rainbow. Loch Leven, or brook trout raised underthe same conditions, but reports from various sections in which plantshave been made indicate the capture of quite a number of specimensmeasuring from 10 to 12 inches, especially in the Pere Marquette River.None of these specimens have so far been identified, however. OnApril 19 a shipment of 95,880 eggs was received from Fort Gaston,Cal. These were hatched, and the 75,000 fry resulting from them wereplanted during the month of May in Little Manistee River, ManisteeCounty, near Grand Rapids, Mich., and various streams tributary toLakes Huron and Michigan. A few breeding black bass transferred to this station two years agoare still in stock. They spawned early in June, but as there were nosuitable ponds for the reception of the fry, no efforts were made torear them. Report U. S. F, C. 1898 (To face page LXXX.J Plate XVII.
