OTHER VARIETIES OF THE GOLDFISH The early authorities writing on the goldfish mention a number of other varieties not here described because they are still unknown to the author. The data concerning them is meagre and not sufficiently explicit for their certain identification. There are probably many with which the American fancier will become familiar later, as the appreciation of the finer goldfishes is of rapid growth so that the attention of Oriental breeders will be directed to this market for their, at present, very perishable wares. With increased interest, however combined with improved facilities of transportation, better accommodations upon arrival and rest before ship- ment across the Continent, as well as with a fuller understanding of their requirements for acclimatization, breeding and treatment of ills and ail- ment upon arrival, the mortality will be so materially lessened as to make their importation and propagation a profitable industry. When this has been accomplished, all the wonders in goldfish culture now only known through the insufficient descriptions of travelers not fully conversant with the subject, will be familiar to the American and European breeders. 63.
