FISH HATCHERY FOR STATE.
Provision Made In a Bill Reported
FaVorabIy.

Washington. - Provision for the
establishment in Maryland of special
fishery establishment, which will be
the only one of it's kind in the whole
country, is made in an omnibus fish
hatchery bill that was favorably re-
ported to the House by Representative
Faison, of North Carolina, from the
Committee on Merchant Marine and
Fisheries.
The bill appropriates $79O,O0O for the
establishment of this Maryland fishery
experimental plant and for Is other
fishery plants in as many States. In
the other States the plants will be the
usual sort of fish hatchery and cultur-
al plant. They were to cost $4,000
each as starter. But in Maryland
the plant, instead of being fish hatch
cry, will be devoted to the study of
diseases and problems in connection
with the propagation of fish and S4O.-
900 is the initial sum recommended for
the establishment of this plant. The
Dill does not attempt to fix the location
OF the plant, but leaves that to the dis.
erection of Secretary Redfeld.
Tie Maryland project is based on
the provisions of bill introduced by
Representative Frank o. Smith, of the
Fifth Maryland District. The report
filed contains letter from Secretary
Redfield, of the Department of Com
merce, stating that the proposal to
establish an experimental station for
the study of fish diseases and fish
propagation" as provided for in the
Smith bill. is strongly Endorsed.
In his letter favoring this Maryland
station Secretary Redfield said: Fish
culture has reached such high degree
OF perfection in the United States, and
the magnitude of the operations as a
whole leaves little to be desired. There
is, however, much room for effective
work in fish culture similar to that con-
Quoted in animal and plant industry at
agricultural experimental stations. and
one of the greatest needs of the service
is an experimental station for the
study Of fish diseases and the propaga
ton of fish breeding.
The matter of improving the food
and game qualities of fishes by select
i've breeding is subject to which prac-
tically no attention has yet been given
in this country, but the possibilities are
alluring and the project is well worthy
OF support from Congress in view of
the great improvements that have been
produced in domestic animals and
plants by the application of scientific
methods.
THE serious aspect of disease among
cultivated fishes has frequently been
set forth in the Bureau of Fisheries re-
ports and brought directly to the at
tention of Congress. An experimental
station would, no doubt, pay for itself
every year in the actual money value
of fish, saved that are now lost at the
Matching stations all over the country
because of lack of knowledge of the
proper means for preventing and
curing the various destructive maladies
to which domestic7ted or semi-do-
INVESTIGATED fish are LIABLE

This case has grown out of moth
