Abstract

I have now to report that the hatching of the last batch
of ova is complete, and that the young fish are progressing
most favorably. Mr. Ramsbottom counted those which hatched
from the salmon ova up to 5,000, and estimates the remainder
at about 1,000, making 6,000 in all. The salmon trout safely
hatched he estimates at about 1,000.
