FREE FISH FOR STATE STREAMS 6cAyUITous
Distribution OF TRoUT TO BE MADE 1T THE Darn
HILL MATCHING House NEXT MoNTR-The men,
bers OF the Fish Commission, who have been la,
ing assiduously for a number of yeas for tie j.,
PRODUCTION, propagation and distribution of the
most valuable food-fshes have met with the proner
encouragement, and with the increaed facilities
which they have received from time b time, have
extended their operations to those vaieties which
though important, furnish rather a luxury t.,an a
staple food.
During the last season Mr.. 7. B. Feguson. COM
missioner, distributed q large numbr of brook
trout to parties wishing them to stock ither ponds
streams.
The great demand for this fish. as evinced nv
the number of applications for them, las induced
him this year to provide yet larger number for
distribution, and he expects, during tie winter, to
DC apie TO give to all those wishing thm as many
as they can with safety transport.
All citizens of the State wishing trut to stock
waters OF the State, can get them free of charge.
ON application at Druid Hill Matching House, on
and after January 10Th next. The distribution
will be gratuitous but the Fish Commission can
not either undertake to furnish vessels for trans
portation or meet any of the expense of their
transfer from the Matching House to TIN localities
for which they may be destined
Persons making application must tdse to the
Matching House with them vessels in witch to re-
move the fish. Ordinary milk cans arevery suit
able, and five gallon can will hold about as manr
hundred trout. The young fish should ie deposit
ed as near the head of the stream as possible and
the deposit be made after dark, if practicable
this enables them to become ACCUSTOMED to the
water, and find hiding places during tie night
when most of the larger fish do not feed.
The employee of the Commission in charge o.
the Matching House will be furnished with blanl
receipts, on which must be stated the sream il
which the fish are to be deposited by the person
making application.
The fish undistributed at the time that it i
necessary to feed them will be deposite4 by tn
Commission in some public waters.
Mr.. Ferguson trusts that by means of thi
gratutous distribution of brook trout, allparts o
the State will be reached, and its streams aga
re-peopled with this attractive fsh.-Bqltimor
EUeninq Nelcs.
