HATCHING OF FISH TOBE SHOWNHERE 10,000 Whitefish Eggs Will . Be Developed at Commerce Building Aquarium. = In order to satisfy demands of schools throughout this section, Bureau of Fisheries yesterday made plans to hatch and grow for cductional | purposes 10,000 efish in the Com- merce Department’s big aquarium. Carpenters started crecting a minia- ture hatchery in the center of the aquarium and Glenn C. Leach, chief of the fish culture division, said he had ordered 10,000 eggs to be shipped here from one of the bureau stations on the Great Lakes. Leach said the hatchery would be constructed in three sections, to allow the general public to watch the progress of the silvery colored fish from the time they ere hatched until they become several months old. One hatchery for salmon and trout already is in operation in the aquarium. Approximately 2,000 eggs were hatched about two months ago and most of these babies arc surviving because of the special care given them. The whitefish eggs will be placed in jars at the top of the hatchery. When hatching starts, the fish immediately leave the jars and follow the course of the running water, those in the upper tiers going through the succeeding jars, and all finally reaching the fry-collect- ing tank at the bottom, whence they are carried to the main collecting tanks. The whitefish, which are found in abundance in the Great Lakes, were selected for the exhibition because no | special water heating apparatus needed for the hatching. The tempe: ture of the water in the natural spaw ing grounds, officials said, is slightly above the freezing mark. Twins to Mark 80th Birthday. MOLINE, IIl, January 20 (P).— ty-year-old Jessie L.

The overhead bridges which the ‘Treasury Department is preparing, with which to ccnnect the new Department of Agriculture Building and the exten- sible building on the ot.her side of B street south were discussed.
