Commissioner Baird.

WASHINGTON, May s.-Fish culture has
been q subject of q good deal of attention in
Washington this week. The town has been
full of fish enthusiasts, not fish cstohers, but
those who look with much broader and more
philsnthropic views upon and into the sub
ject. 1t is band of men who have by their
efforts and untiIiDg persistence and study
added millions of dollars Of value to the food
supply of the country each year for the past
decade. and developed system which is to
furnish 10 the people of the country, the
masses, great food supply which was here
tofore lost, simply because the natural sd-
vantages were allowed to go to waste for want
of intelligent attention. The United States
Fish Cultural Association is the name of
this society which numbers among its men,
bers the most earnest and valuable advo-
Gates of this important enterprise which has

the country. 1t is but little oyer decade
since the work of Systematic and intelligent
protection OF the fish and fisheries OF the
country and the cultivation OF this import
ant feature of natural food supply began.
The work has in the meantime enlisted the
active support of many men OF prominence
and intellectual activity, who sse in it great
possibilities in the way OF food supply for the
masses at small cost. Not only is this the
case with such men as Professor Baird, OF the
Smithsonian Institute. who has been placed
in especial charge OF the work, Major Fergu-
SOD, the Assistant Commissioner, and Pro-
lessor Mcdonald, who is ia especial charge Of
the Division of Propagation, but it has been
warmly and intelligently supported by pri'
vate citizens scientific men and students Ct
these subjects which relate to the practical
development of the physical resources Of the
Nation. This is the explanation Of the pres
ence in Washing ton this week of the United
States Fish Cultural Association and the sur
prisiDg revelations in regard to fish and fish
culture that its meetings have brought to the
surface. The association contains among its
embels some Of the most distinguished men
OF the county. statesmen and scientists,
Hon. Theodore Lyman, member OF Congress
from Massachusetts,, who is an eminent
naturalist ard studen. OF political economy,
is the President of the association, and has
remained here since the close of the session
of Congress, enjoying the delights OF spring
time IN washington ana waiting Tor the
annual meeting of this society. Nearly all
members OF the Fish Commission are also
members of this society, and the two asso-
Citations work in entire accord and prove
mutually advantageous and of great benefit
to the country. Professor Baird, the head of
the Fish Commission, Professor Mcdonald
and indeed, all those taking part in the
work here, have watched the proceedings
with great interest.
The fact isl said Professor Mcdonald,
talking to your correspondent, as he sat in
his cozy library at his home, I'VE are just
sppros aching the time when we are to see
so1e of the fruits of the work that We have
been doing. This subject of fish culture
was practically new when We began it, so far
as its practical application to national sys-
TENS was concerned. 1t is something over a
decade since the work was begun, but ne
cessarily much of the earlier work was in the
way of experiment, ald some OF our time and

been but for this work. When the fishers
fairly established in the streams they in
crease in numbers by the natural process
with wonderful rapidity. Take the New
River in Virginia for instance. 4 few years
ago there wasn't bass in this stream. No.
body thought of fishing there for bass. There
were few catfish and suckers. but that was
all. He began to stock il with few bass,
and the people outside, the sportsmen, be-
gan TO find out that it was good fishing
ground. The result is that it is visited every
year now by large numbers OF these sports.

the people living in that section, and who

1t was quite funny, too, the way we caught
the fish with which we stocked this river.
a certain dam in the stream where we caught
them, trying TO make their way
to the spawning grounds. Efforts were
made TO catch them with s net, but without
success. They were very smart. They would
always jump over the net as ii gathered
about them. They got so they knew the
shadow of net as soon as il appeared clos
ing about them, and away they would jump
over it. So we concluded to try stratagem.
We took a tow-b boat and rowed quietly along
with the side of the boat toward the shoal OF

of let coming over them, began to jump to

the edge of the boat landed inside of il, and
were picked up. 1t is the progeny of these
