Stffte hatchery at Dolcl Spring Harbor, L. I. The object was 

 partlv to insj..ect the work done since .launarv last, tail uiainlv 

 to view the grounds and plans for establishing a salt-water 

 Hatchery. Tbey found the works in excellent condition, and 

 after carefully going over the. proposed plans for introducing 

 saltwater and scanning the estimates of expenditvu a bl ib 

 objeot, ordered the work to be begun at once, it is believed 

 that this work will tend to popularize the Convniission greatly. 

 In this connection we uaunol do be1 fcer than i o quote the fol- 

 lowing from the r!rooUI\ ,, ; ,,-,,.,.- 



"Tht 





ffloneis were much pleased with the work thus far accom- 

 plished, and the wav in which Mr. Mather is using the available 

 funds and the quite limited facilities at his command in get- 

 ting ready for an "increase of business." They inspected quite 

 carefully the various ponds, with their varieties of the salmon 

 tribe, and were e.-p - b- •. • elastic over a pond and pen

"A Di ief discussion then took [.lace in regard to the best plans
