ItUPOltT ON FI8H CULTUftK-
The iollowing ia tui extract from
an address delivered hy Dr. H. II.
Carey, Superintendent of Fralierie*
of Georgia, before the Convention
yf the Georgia Slate Agricijturul
Society at Thomaaville, Fehrimry
23, 18*1.
Rih Huggcetionson the construo
lion of carp ponds and the manage
ment of German carp, should be
read by every free-bolder in Chero
kee county, and if possible eacli
exaggeration.
Dvriag the fgjl and winter juat
pauvd, about eigift thousand were
distributed in Georgia, Their growth
in this climate is very rapid—in 1 :a«
than twelve months many of the first
distributed had taken on n growth of
four pounds. They ere of great fe
cunditv and not piYdncious in their
habits, living largely on vegetable
food.
In the oonstmotion of ponds, of
course oqjy the moet general rules
can be given. Especial engine, ring
must lie brought into requisition to
suit each individual cuse. Hut cer
tain general rules will apply to all
o ses. After it is ascertained that
un ud<quale supply of water is avail
able, it is desirable to arrange to
keep out the surface water,ns during
heavy rains your duin might be bro
ken, your pond submerged or filled
with mnd and sand. This protection
outi generally be made by side ditch
es.
For raising carp a great depth of
water is by no mcuiia a necessity,
three or four feet will suffice lor the
greater depth, but if the locality
will allow of much deeper water, it
is no objection. The very best mute-
rial for the dam is earth, and great
care should be taken to iitart this
right.*, ft is the cheapest, dam that
oan ha constructed, and will answer
ud numbly.
It is iyidispensible to provide for
drainage of the pond, und this ar
rangement should he such that the
drainage is complete. Perhaps the
best material for this purpose is iron
tubing, closed by a gate valve and
guarded by u strainer on the epd iu
the wood. The size of the tube will
(Ihpmtd/jlff course, on the sine of the
pond. Ordinarily a two or three
inch pipe will do, aud generally
about sixteen feet long—pipe, gate
valve and oMairier costing about #15
In new ponds devoid of snob vegetal
ble growth, small branches of trses
may be suspended into the water to
receive the eggs. A carp weighing
foui or five pou .ds will produce four
or five hundred thousand eggs in a
season. Iu Europe they spawn at
three years old; in the bout hern
States they will spawn at two years
old.
This brings me to the third and
loot division of the subjeot: The*
management of the German ourp.
The hatching pond being properly
construced, the breeder! should be
placed in this eaily in March, and
from what has been said it will be
seen that not many breeders will be
required to stock quite a largo pond.
Eight or ten pair are ample for an
acre, and be certain that all other
fish are excluded, ns the eggs attach
ed to various objects constitute a
tempting hate for depredators. Du
ring the spawning season the breed*
ers should be liberally fed to keep
them from devouring their own eggs,
or, what would be better, and whioh
is often done, exclude the epnwners
from the spawning grounds after
the spawning isetf cted.
The German carp oultiirista are of
the opinion that it is best not to leed
the carp uuless the pond is over
stocked, and it is estimated that an
acre pond will subsist from eight
hundred to one thousand carp. In
the fall the young carp should be ta
ken out and put in the breeding
pond. During the next year, if well
cured for, they will take ou a growth
of four pounds a-pieoe, when they
arc ready for the table or market.
They by no means stop growing nt
this veight, but keep ou indefinitely.
They hr* exceedingly hardy, psft kn

so arranged that the Water esn Ik- j •«* their filth year 1 , weighed Sixteen
une should arrange to build u pond *tion is not firm, clear oft roots* etc..
and stock it with carp. They can
ho easily purchased at a small cost,
and the carp increase very fust and
grow very largo and fine. Thou®
who denire to embark in this enter
prise will be furnished with all the
information necessary by the editor
of Thb Advance, and any as*i*t&Hce
that can be rendered will be cheer
fully given with pleasure. Almost
every funner has a natural pond
on his farm that eould he easily
aud cheaply converted into a suit
able reception tor these fish. The
profit is very groat, and should he
taken hold ol at once by our farm
ing friends and those who can ob
tain suitable ponds:
This brings me to the second Ui-
vision of this subject: the construc
tion of csrp ponds. The German
carp has been quite recently intro
duced into the United States east of
the Rocky Mountains. The first
hutching was made at the carp ponds,
in Washington, in 1879, the breeders
having lieen imported from Germany
by the United States Fish OoinntiB-
sion. Georgia obtained about seven
bundled of these young fish ia the
fall of tliut ye.ir. They were diatrib
uted in part by the United States
and in part by the Georgia Commis
Hion. These fish have been cultivs
ted for centuries in Germany, and
their introduction here is no untried
experiment. To say that it is the
best pond fish kuwwn is certainly no
drawn o^a 1 pleasure. There need
not ordinarily be much exoavating;
heretofore a vast amount of unneees
sury labor hiM been done on fish
ponds If possible, have two ponds
w-a hatching pWtid und a breeding
pond. The hatdftng pond may be
made smaller than the breeding pond.
The receivers und receiving ditches
should bo the same iu all carp ponds, iphmioally the farmers’ fish. Any
Iu making the dam, if the founda-
it will be best to dig oat a ditch three
or four fret wide down lo firm wait;
into this tramp the dirt well. This
will afford a good foundation for the
dam. In making the dam a wide
ditch can be excuvated; throw the
dirtou the outside, tramp well during
the process. The width of the have
of the dam should be three limes its
height. Where bermuda grass is
convenient, this forms an excellent
sodding. This ditch will afford deep
water for the protection of the fish
in tht extremes of weather. The
pond® should be kept uniformly of,
the same depth* having inlets aud
outlets, protected by wire grating.
Arrange to have a receiver noar the
strainer—that is, an srreur of a lew
square feet lower thar. aay other part
of the pond, bat subject to drainage.
Have ditches radiating from all parts
of the pond to this, so that when the
water is drawn off the fish will grad
ually come into this receiver; the
fish can theu be readily taken out
with a dip-net. It is very necessary
to have nsuch of the water ia the
ponds shallow—not more than from
six inches to a foot deep. This shul
low water should be liberally supplied
with grass and aquatic plants. If
the aquatic plants are of a seed-bear
ing quality, all the better, ms they
will afford food for the carp. The
eggs of the carp are of the adhesive
variety, und are attached by the pro
cess of spawning to the vegetuble

The demand for the carp is exceed-’
ngly great all ov^hbe State of Geor

involve the distribution of fish suffi
cient to stock St least fifteen hun

That the Legislature will make
such appropriation as will meet the
exigency of the case, I have no doubt.
