Work of the Fish Commission.

The fish commission have received a tele-
gram from Woods Holl station stating that the
steamer Fish Hawk sailed thence yesterday for
South Norwaik, Conn. On her arrival there
she will continue her investigation of the raw
ages Of the star fish on the oyster beds. Some
time ago the fish commission received letter
from gentleman in the vicinity of Plymouth
Bay. Mass, reporting the presence Of great
number of fish that resembled cod Upon the
receipt Of the letter the commission replied.
requesting the gentleman to send some OF the
fish to the station at Woods Hoil for examna-
tion. Upon examination at the station the fish
were found to be cod about year and half old.
These fish are reported very numerous and
nothing of the kind has been seen there for
forty years, even by the oldest fishermen. This
proves that the planting made by the commits
sion in the region of Cape Ann and Vineyard
Sound has been successful, and that the fish
have spread along the coast. This is one of the
most important and gratifying reports made to
the commission for some time. as It has been the
aim OF the commission to replenish the inshore
supply OF cod, which is of great importance
aud source of livelihood to great many fish,
ermen along the coast. Further reports as to
the development Of these fish in this section are
looked forward to with great interest by the
commission.
