EXTRACTS FROM CORRESPONDENCE. 
CARBONDALE, ILu., July 12, 1884. 
S.P. Bartlett, Hsq.: 
DEAR Str—* * I put29 Carp received of you in December, 1881, in a wire cage an | 
placed same in the pond in 4% feet of water. 4 
In the spring of last year I took some out and their weight was from % to 1 pound. | 
Not long after they broke out and I have not caught any of themsince. * * Not long | 
since I saw late in the evening, feeding on some cabbage leaves I had thrown into the 
water, a fish 15 to 18 inches long, which I took to be a Carp, and they would, I think, weigh | 
3 pounds, * * Respectfully, ete., 
D. H. BRUSH. 
S. P. Bartlett, Esq.: 
SPRINGFIELD, Iuu., July 18, 1884. 
Deak Srr—-In reply to your favor of the 15th, would state that the Carp you sent me. 
are growing finely. We feed them bread scraps. ; 
I should judge they are 12 to 15 inches long and seem to thrive. I never believed fish 
would grow so rapidly. Yours, respectfully, 
ISAAC R. DILLER.
