PROPAGATION AND DISTRIBUTION OF FOOD FISHES, 1927 701 
TRANSFER OF EGGS BETWEEN STATIONS 
To illustrate that the various stations operated by the bureau are 
not independent units but are interlocking, there is given a list of 
the numbers and species of eggs transferred between stations. The 
object of such transfers is to maintain the widest possible distribution 
of the various species at a minimum cost and to relieve the pressure 
on those stations that take eggs in excess of their capacity to incubate 
them.
