The eggs allotted to the U.S. Fish Commission were distributed in 
March, 1887, to various State commissions, to England, France, and 
Germany, and to the Wytheville and Cold Spring Harbor Stations. 
The 214,000 reserved for Grand Lake Stream were hatched and planted 
with a very small loss. 
On March 8, 1886, 19,000 eggs were sent from the Grand Lake Stream 
Station to the Pennsylvania commission at Corry, Pa. Near the end 
of June about 12,000 fry developed from these eggs were planted in 
streams flowing into the lake of the South Fork Fishing and Hunting 
Club, in Cambria County, Pa. 
The Wytheville Station.—50,000 eggs were received on March 13, 1887, 
from Grand Lake Stream; 12,997 yearlings were liberated in tributa-

Stream on March 19, 1886, and on April 14 they hatched, with a loss of 
only 575. On Aprii 27, 10,000 fry were planted in a lake of Clare 
County, and 12,000 in Rapid River, in Kalkaska and Antrim Counties, 
both places of deposit being in the northern central portion of Mich- 
igan. 
The Cold Spring Harbor Station.—34,000 eggs were received from 
Grand Lake Stream on March 18,1886. After a small loss in shipping 
and hatching, 31,020 fry were placed in two lakes of the Adirondack 
region. On April 1, 1887, 25,000 eggs received from the Grand Lake 
Stream Station were repacked and shipped to Leon d’Halloy, vice-pres-
