This is a decline of 27, ,263 from the catch of 1883. But to balance this there a most remarkable increase in the catch in the Quinnipiac and Housatonic rivers. In the Housatonic the catch was 52,00O, against 16,0 050 the year before ,and III the Quinnipiac, though no figures are given, stock in the company rose from B a share to $50 and even S100. It is suggested that the Connec- ticUt river breakwater may have driven the shsd westward and diverted them from the Connecticut.
 An extended quotation is given from the
 report of Colonel Mcdonald of the govern
 nent fish commission, who ho'ds that the migrations of the fish are guided by their
 search fo" water temperature of sixty de grees Fahrenheit. Hence, in backward seasons, when long rivers cold, coming from high up, the short streams run warmer, and the shad rush first for the warmer water. Thus he explains fluctuations between the Chesapeake and Delaware bays. But those shad, he thinks, winter off the coast on the ocean plateau. Where our Sound shad might go is not explained.
 During the year Mir Fenton matched out 696,000 shad at Poquonnock, and 2,100,000 on the Housatonic. These last went half into the Connecticut. There were distribu- ted coo, GOO brook trout. The board recom- mend that the selling of trout less than six inches long be forbidden.
