Be careful to have plenty of help when you load into the car, and also at every change of cars, for, different from other mer- chandise, an upset is of- ten a total loss. J Keep the temperature 'â ''' °° ' ' p'- of the water very low all day with ice, â using large pieces when standing still, and small pieces when in motion, as the large pieces are then apt to bruise and kill the fish. Do not change the water en route, but give it a thorough aeration once in half an hour. The aerating will be sure to keep them alive, while * The Troutdale Transit Tank is recommended as an excel- lent thing to carry live fish in. See Dr. Slack's Catalogue of fish culturists' apparatus. A common flour-barrel, well soaked, with floats on the top of the water to prevent slopping, is a very good impromptu afiair for carrying live fish. t A common hand fire-bellows is as good an extempore aerat- ing machine as can be found. t See Appendix II., on Journeys with Live Fish.
