TRANSFER OF EGGS BETWEEN STATIONS 



While the interhatchery transfer of fish eggs is more or loss a routine 

 administrative matter, the following tabulation is cited to demonstrate 

 the extent of this practice. Many of the eggs so transferred are 

 collected from wild fish at suitable locations, and the maintenance 

 of expensive brood stock is avoided. With a sufficient return of fish 

 to parental waters the wild producing stock maintains itself with 

 adequate abundance.
