FISH FOR MANY STREAMS,
Pennsylvania Railroad Distributing
MinnOws Throughout the state.

Early In this year the Pennsylvania
railroad undertook rather novel eX-
pertinent, that of assisting in stocking
the mountain streams of PENNSYLVANIA
with fish, says Philadelphia special
dispatch to the Pittsburg Dispatch.
The experiment has proved so success
full that henceforth it will be continued
with increased vigor. The company in
this work is cooperating with the
United States government and the
state of Pennsylvania.
More than 100000 minnows. none of
them more than an inch long, have
been turned over to the railroad by the
state of Pennsylvania. The state de-
partmeut of fisheries did not have
enough money ut its command to dis
tribute properly all the fish it had to
dispose of, and when all the clubs and
individuals that wanted any had fin.
lshed putting in their applications il
looked as If the other thousands would
have to be thrown away.
1t will take three years for the fish
to grow to maturity, and then those
that haven't died will be from six to
ten inches long. Before the three wears
are up, though. many more fish will
have been distributed in the same woy
by the Pennsylvania. 1t is expected
that the scheme will result in develop
ing very fine line of fish in the
streams of the Allegheny mountains
