have to pass a short period of their
life as parasites on the fins or gills of
fishes, and it has been found that the
young ngigerhead mussels hold onto
other fish. 1t has been learned that
ring, and as far as knowr1,s onto no
other fish. 1t has ben learned that
this herring is one of the most migra-
tory of Mississippi river fishes, and
1t is feared that the Keokuk dam may
exclude the fish from the upper river,
and along with the fish the mussel
would disappear because the new gen.
;; erations would die for lack of hosts
on which to pass the first few weeks
of their life. The investigation by the
bureau is being continued with a
view to preventing the determination
of the valuable mussel in the upper
! river.
"In the way Of benefit. the dam has
created large lake which is an un
usually favorable environment for the
principal species of food and game
fishes. The bureau anticipates that
fishing will steadily improve in the
region from Keokuk to Burlington"
