According to the books the princi, are the Potomac, Susquehanna and Delaware, In the early history of the country the abundance of shad excited unbounded — astonishment. Nearly every river on the Atlantic Coast was invaded in the spring by {immense schools, which, in their up- Ward course, furnished an amples supply of choice food. But ignorance of or indifferenece to conservation worked a deplorable change. Ever increasing and reck- less fishing operations diminished the Supply almost to the point of extii tion, “Perceiving the danger, the Fed- eral and various State Governments began hatching shad artificially. The experiment proved highly successful and the tide of destruction was tem- borarily stemmed. During the spring of 1900 the United States Fish Com- mission planted in Atlantic Coast streams 241,056,000 young shad, Nev- ertheless shad have been compara- tively scare for several years. That it can be artifically propagated successfully is proved by the Pacific Coast experiment. Fifty yeare ago the shad was unknown on the Pa- cifle. Between 1871 and 1880, 619,000 shad fry were placed in the Sacra- mento River, and in 1885-6, 910,000 were liberated in the Columbia River. The fish has since spread to San Diego on the south and Fort Wrangel on the north, a distance of more than 2,000 miles, Shad are really more abundant now on the Pacifie than the Atlantic coast, but strange to say, they are not’ much appreciated on the former. At least it has been said that fishermen find difficulty in disposing of them. But that gams incredible, The shad passes most of its life in he sea, making annual migrations to the rivers for the sole purpose of spawning. Little is known of its life n the ocean, The place to which it resorts are unknown and little is known of food. In the spring it ascends to suitable spawning grounds which are always in fresh water. upying several weeks in deposit vnd fertilizing its eggs in any g tream, It is common in the fresh water streams of lower Florida in| the earty fall and reache Johns RI n Novembor n the Savannah River of nd the Edisto River of South © ina before the end of December and gradually works its way nort The height of its run in th sin April, in the De und in the Miramii trunswick not gen¢ an be taken with a lure, either by fly or angleworm, by hook and line id affords excellent sport.
