E S. W., Garrettsville, O.— 1. In next issue will you fully de-

 is known in this viciaity by that name, and I write tor informa- < 

 lion 2. Also advise names and addresses of other parties than 

 Annin that have trout fry for sale. Ans. I. The croppie or crap- 

 pie is variously styled speckled perch, strawberry pereh, chinqua- 

 pin perch, bridge perch. Campbellite, New Light, sac-a-lai, 

 bachelor, etc., etc. There are two kinds of crapnies, and .one of 

 them shares the foregoing names with its relative, and has also 

 the following: Sand perch, grass bass, calico bass barfish, bitter- 

 head, tin-mouth, John Demon, shad and goggle-eye. It belongs 

 to the sunfish family, but is longer-bodied and larger reaching a 

 foot in length. The colors are silvery olive, mottled with dar£ 

 Kreen. The tins are usually colored like the body arid the fish is a 

 very handsome one; it is an excellent, food fish and game enough 

 to suit the average angler. The first one mentioned is common in, 

 the Ohio Valley, and the other is abundant in the Great ijaKO 

 region. Both species have been largely introduced into pond* 

 nnd streams of many States. Good illustrations of the crappies
