CAR AND MESSENGER SERVICE. 



The distribution of the output of the various hatcheries is accom- 

 plished b}" means of the Bureau's five railway cars especially designed 

 for the purpose, and a corps of detached messeno-ers who accompany 

 consignments of fish in baggage cars to the less accessible places. The 

 cars traveled T0,221 miles in the past year, the messengers 103,177 

 miles. Free transportation was furnished by a number of railroad 

 companies, as shown in the following table, and acknowledgment is 

 hereby made of this courtesy and liberality.
