Abstract

The necessity for a solution to the fish culture problem was long ago felt in the crowded districts of Europe. The economic demand that food be produced for the ever increasing population of these districts resulted in directing attention to the comparatively waste small inland ponds and lakes, once plentifully inhabited by food fish but now almost completely exhausted. It was to meet this situation, then, that the pioneer fish culturists began working at methods to raise the waste waters to their former degree of productive usefulness in yielding food.
