  All 
  of 
  these 
  eggs 
  were 
  obtained 
  at, 
  and 
  near 
  Rhinecliff 
  and 
  Lin- 
  

   lithgo 
  from 
  the 
  fishermen. 
  The 
  fishermen 
  receiving 
  $10.00 
  per 
  

   100,000 
  eyed 
  shad 
  eggs. 
  This 
  being 
  practically 
  the 
  first 
  season 
  

   this 
  method 
  has 
  been 
  employed 
  for 
  obtaining 
  the 
  eggs, 
  hatchery 
  

   men 
  were 
  furnished 
  to 
  instruct 
  the 
  fishermen 
  how 
  and 
  what 
  to 
  do, 
  

   also 
  to 
  receive 
  and 
  care 
  for 
  the 
  eggs 
  when 
  landed 
  on 
  shore. 
  

  

  No 
  expense 
  was 
  incurred 
  for 
  collection 
  of 
  herring 
  eggs 
  other 
  

   than 
  that 
  hatchery 
  men 
  took 
  them 
  from 
  the 
  fishermens' 
  drift 
  nets. 
  

  

  Now 
  that 
  the 
  fishermen 
  have 
  got 
  well 
  started 
  with 
  some 
  knowl- 
  

   edge 
  of 
  what 
  to 
  do, 
  a 
  better 
  percentage 
  of 
  eggs 
  should 
  be 
  obtained 
  

   in 
  future.

  Although 
  the 
  total 
  output 
  of 
  the 
  Oneida 
  Hatchery 
  this 
  season 
  

   was 
  not 
  quite 
  as 
  great 
  as 
  last, 
  it 
  has, 
  on 
  the 
  whole, 
  been 
  a 
  very 
  

   successful 
  year. 
  The 
  total 
  number 
  of 
  pike 
  perch 
  hatched 
  this 
  year 
  

   was 
  83,733,000 
  fry, 
  of 
  which 
  60,608,000 
  were 
  planted 
  in 
  Oneida 
  

   Lake 
  and 
  23,125,000 
  delivered 
  to 
  107 
  different 
  places 
  in 
  the 
  State 
  

   and 
  planted 
  in 
  suitable 
  waters. 
  

  

  The 
  number 
  of 
  white 
  fish 
  hatched 
  was 
  3,280,000, 
  and 
  the 
  fry 
  

   were 
  planted 
  in 
  Canandaigua 
  Lake. 
  The 
  Tullibee 
  eggs 
  taken 
  from 
  

   Oneida 
  Lake 
  hatched 
  6,000,000, 
  all 
  of 
  which 
  were 
  planted 
  in 
  Oneida 
  

   Lake. 
  

  

  The 
  total 
  number 
  of 
  Small 
  Mouth 
  Black 
  Bass 
  hatched 
  was 
  

   210,650, 
  of 
  which 
  130,250 
  fry 
  were 
  planted 
  in 
  Oneida 
  Lake 
  and 
  

   73,500 
  delivered 
  to 
  119 
  different 
  places 
  in 
  the 
  State; 
  6,900 
  were 
  

   raised 
  to 
  fingerlings, 
  of 
  which 
  4,700 
  were 
  planted 
  in 
  Oneida 
  Lake 
  

   and 
  2,200 
  in 
  Seneca, 
  Ballston 
  and 
  Saratoga 
  Lakes. 
  We 
  also 
  had 
  

   1,000 
  yearlings 
  from 
  a 
  pond 
  in 
  which 
  they 
  were 
  hatched 
  last 
  year 
  

   and 
  where 
  they 
  were 
  left 
  until 
  June, 
  when 
  they 
  were 
  planted 
  in 
  

   Oneida 
  Lake.
