Excerpt from Report of Board of Illinois State Fish Commissioners to the Governor of Illinois, September 30, 1890By another season we hope to be able to arrange our boat, the steamer Lotus, so that fish can be carried any distance, by the use of pumps and attachments which will supply a con stant stream or jets of water over the fish while they are held in tanks, arranged for that purpose, along guards and fore castle of the boat. By this means we hope we shall not be compelled to confine our operations to any one locality, but be able to move from place to place, on both rivers, and cover a much larger territory. As it is, we are compelled to work within towing distance of some point which can be conveniently reached for loading.In this connection, we would say that a party of men, work ing under the direction of Mr. Dj. Webb, for the Fish Com mission, rescued and put into the river, near Rapids City, Ill., fish, in twelve days' time. A report of the work will be found under head of Fish Distributed.In the proper place in this report will be found tables, show ing the extent of the work of distribution of native fish, and where the plants have been made for the past two seasons.About the PublisherForgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.
