To make the improgments at Bass Lake property seven dand a half acres was acquired, five being purchased and the other was deeded to the state by Robert J. Virtue of Chicago. s

When the two hatcheries are enlarged to meet the increased demand. from allover the state for stock fish, Indiana will have a total of 78 ponds in its five hatcheries. Requests for stock fish increased from 274 in 1919 to 1400 in 1927. In 1927 the state reared and released in public waters 3'13,003_,355 young fish of which 933,273 were- large and small mouth black ‘bass; 465,389 bluegills; 46,543 crapple i 51,650 rock bass or goggle-eye; 2,185, 800 yellow perch; 9,260,500 pike perch io,r wall-eyve.
