PROPAGATION AND DISTEIBUTION OF FOOD FISHES, 1925 447 

 Comparison of egg collections, fiscal years 1925 and 1924 



FISH-RESCUE WORK 



Salvage operations in the Mississippi Valley were greatly curtailed 

 owing to the abnormally high water stages which prevailed in the 

 Mississippi River during the greater part of the summer and fall. 

 The territory covered by the work extended from Prescott, Wis., 

 on the north, to Andalusia, 111., on the south, and the following 

 table shows the results accomplished:
