Book excerpt: Excerpt from State of California Fish and Game Commission: Twenty-Second Biennial Report for the Years 1910-1912 We aim to work on broad, practical and economical lines, and to make the Commission something more than a police force. We shall endeavor to enforce the laws for the preservation of fish and game, and to stock the public waters of the State with food and game fishes best suited to them. By economic and scientific investigations we hope to disclose the life, habits, and abundance of our fish and game, and the conditions most favorable to conserve and, if possible, increase the supply. We shall maintain a State Game Farm, and shall use every effort to propagate our native species of game, and in particular, the valley quail, recognized as one of the finest game birds in the world - and certainly the game bird best suited to the uplands of this State. We Shall continue to operate the fish hatcheries to their full capacity, and to distribute the Output in suitable public waters in every section of the State. We will not stock private waters. We shall give to the distribution of the fish produced in the fish hatcheries the greatest care, endeavoring not only to see that the young fish are intelligently liber ated where they may best thrive, but by close observation to ascertain the success of such methods, and to ascertain further if additional and more effective measures can be found. It has already been demonstrated that the operations of the hatch eries and the stocking of streams in the State with native and non indigenous fish have produced great results. N 0 other state has reaped as great reward from the moneys so expended. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.
