STATIONERY FOR FISHES
Two Thousand Dollars Worth Used
by the Commission in One Year.
Large Sums Also Expended for Travel.
over a ThOuSan nd Dollars for Fuel
and Light at Woods Hon

The whole question of what tae Fisa Com
mission has accomplished in the twenty
five years Of its existence. together with
what it may b. expected 70 accomplish is
likely TO come up at the approaching ses-
sion Of Congress. II VIII be, Of course. in
connection with the proposal TO transfer
the commission to the Department OF AgrI-
culture
1t VIII be asked again, as frequently be-
fore, whether the whole matter is not
subject for the care Of the several State
governments, rather than for the Federal
government. When this is answered in
favor cf maintamin@ the national work
much closer scrutiny VIII be made than for
years past of the uses made of money and
The results obtained.
The last report from the Commissioner to
Congress was made on December 8, 1894
II shows a total OF appropriations for the
year OF about $500 900, and purpOrts TO
tell what was done with this money, but
the majority Of Congressman would be able
TO make little out OF the figures furnished.
The matter was Of comparatively little i'm
poTtance at the time the report was made
and not much attention was paid TO it. 1t
is doubtful, If a single Congressman gave
more than a passing glance to the report
and probably not one attempted to know
whether the appropriations had been wisely
or even properly applied.
At the coming session the report viii be
taken up and analyzed item by item and
questions asked about some Of the expendI-
lures. For example, the entry, Stationery,
S2,051.5S," among the contingent ex-
I,enses, as well that Of Travel 81 ,22S. .6S, &"
may be made the subject OF inquiry. Thesa
is, OF course, nothing to show anything out
OF the way with either Of these, hut it is,
nevertheless, quite probable that Congress
men may want To know the details of these
expenditures
y comparison VIII also probably nc made
between the expenditures for fuel and light
at the heseveralstations. That itemat Woods
HoIi, Mass, is 81, 1926; at no other sta
tion is it put down at as much as one third
that sum and the average is probably about
$3.50. 1t can not be exactly obtained from
the report because IL is net IN all cases
given as d scpaTat" item.
