REPORT OF COMMISSIONER OF FISH AND FISHERIES. 3 
Tex., in 1899, have so multiplied that there is now good fishing for 
them, and the same is also true of certain localities in Michigan and 
Virginia. Steelhead trout continue to thrive and multiply in Lake 
Superior and inland waters of Minnesota and Vermont, where they 
have been brought from the Pacific coast. On account of both its 
food and game qualities, this fish is an especial favorite in Minnesota, 
_as evidencea by many appreciative letters. Lake trout introduced 
four years ago in a pond in Vermont have increased to such an extent 
that there is now good fishing there, as is also the case with black 
bass, of which a small plant was made under unfavorable circum- 
stances in a pond in Massachusetts. These authentic notes of the 
value of fish-culture are referred to more in detail hereafter. 
The following tables show the number of fish and eggs furnished to 
the States and Territories, the output of the various stations, and the 
total number of fish distributed by species during the fiscal year ended 
June 30, 1901:
