SALMON TO A[JSTRALIA. 185 



As the reader probably is aware, great 

 efforts have been made to transport salmon 

 to Austraha, and the Austrahan Government 

 has voted large sums of money for this pur- 

 pose. I believe the key to success has been 

 discovered at last : it is " freezing the oya." 

 By the kindness of Mr. Youl, who has the 

 management of the experiments, I have been 

 able to assist in these experiments, which are 

 so important and promise so great results, 

 that I have given them in detail and in con- 

 secutive form in the Appendix, for the benefit 

 of future observers. This is the question of 

 the day in the transport of useful fish for 

 long distances.
