BROWN GoODE ( Commissioner) said he should be pleased to give a few ^^^^^^ ^f^^^ what fish culture could do. Professor ( Corn- n^issioner) informed him that the Sacramento ^-^'^ fornia. was. owing to the large number of -nn-- there to a large extent depleted of its Salmon; but by the establishment of a hatchery there he had turne. out some- thine, like sixty-seven millions of eggs or young fry of the Californian Salmon in the past eight or nine years one- fourth of which were put into the Sacramento Rive, and it was now much more productive than ever before. On the Clacamass, in Oregon, a similar experiment was tried some years ago with a like result. These expenments ^ad clearly shown that the Salmon industry of the Pacific Coast, which was now producing fish to the value of sorne- thing like three million dollars a day. was thoroughly under the control o^" fish culture. He might also take the case of the Connecticut, in the last century, which was one of the most productive rivers ; but by the construction of a great dam. 60 miles above its .aouth. the Salmon were cu. off from the spawni
