PRATT, Kans., December 20 (#).— Finny inmates of the Kansas fish hatchery here are thriving on a -diet of “fodine. Use of the chemical as an artificlal stimulant to the growth and develop- | ment of the fish came about after a | serfes of experiments by J. Doze, State fish and game warden. The experiments were prompted by an article in a popular magazine which told of the effect of iodine on animal growth. Several aquariums were . treated with fodine, and a comparison show- ed that the growth of fish in those pools was much more rapid than that of the tiny denizens of the other reservoirs. The output of the hatch. ery, which totals more than a half million ngerlings” a year, is ex- pected to increase materially. '$100,000 Fire in Knoxville, Tenn.
