is found in all of the states bordering on the Atlantic, and 

 along through the Gulf states to Louisiana. The rock bass 

 or goggle-eye is found in New York and westward and south- 

 ward throughout the Mississippi valley to Texas. The war- 

 mouth perch is found in the upper part of the Mississippi 

 valley, and in all of the Gulf states. The Sacramento perch 

 is found only in California. The strawberry bass or calico 

 bass is found in the upper Mississippi river valley and east- 

 ward, then southward through the Atlantic coast states, and 

 westward through the Gulf states. The crappie is found 

 throughout the entire Mississippi valley, but is most abundant 

 in the southern part. So much for the sunfish. 



Of the trouts, as before said, there are many kinds, and 

 they are scattered widely. The trout inhabits cool clear water 

 only, and one species or other may be found in every state 

 west of Kansas and Nebraska in the streams in or near the 

 mountains; in all of the mountain states of the East; in 

 the New England states and all those bordering on Canada, as 

 well as practically all of Canada, Newfoundland and Alaska. 

 The most common species is the brook trout; it is found in 

 all of the New England states, New York, Pennsylvania, 

 West Virginia, eastern Tennessee, western North Carolina, 

 and northern Georgia, in New Brunswick, and in fact all of 

 eastern Canada and the Great Lake region, and in New- 

 foundland. The cut-throat trout ranges from western Mon- 

 tana and northern California northward into Alaska. The 

 rainbow trout is the most common trout on the Pacific coast 

 and is found from northwestern Mexico northward, just how

 brook trout of the northwest is a rainbow. The rainbow has 

 also been introduced into streams of Wisconsin, Michigan, 

 New York, Pennsylvania, Virginia and North Carolina, also 

 in Newfoundland. The Kansas river trout is found on the 

 east slope of the Rockies, from the headwaters of the Kan- 

 sas river to the upper Missouri in Montana. The Yellow-
