 can hiy arduiid and uol the I'l-y. Vdv the hist two years we have 

 not intro(hu-o(l a ]ivo minnow into our jjoiids duriiyu' the spawn- 

 ing- season. 



Ml-. Cai-tei-: I ha\e i-eeomniended to the Wasliingtoil office 

 that, they consti-uet at Si. .lolinshui-y one lai-ii'o bass pond ir. 

 whit-li all the hass are to 1)0 held dui-inii' tlu' i)erio(ls when thev 

 are not spawning; and my rt'oonnuendation is that in tlie s])rinLi,- 

 of the year hefore the fisii are ready to spawn they be sorted 

 out and transferred to a medinm class of pond, measurin*:- 2.") 

 X 75, (n* al)out that area. 'I'lien my idea, as soon as the sitawn- 

 ing season is over, is to tal^e the bass and pnt them back in tlie 

 stock pond. My idea is to make that pond as large as -we liaw 

 room for at the station, and to keep it w^ell stocked with coarse 

 fishes and dviring the time they are out of the pond the food will 

 be collected, and when they get back they will find food, and 

 there will be none of the coarse fishes in the spasming pond, 

 and tlu> young will he allowed to grow without being molested.
