STRIPPING OF TROUT
(0.C.) ROTORUA, this day. Stripping at the State hatchery at Turangi is progressing very favourably, said the conservator of fish and game in the Rotorua district, Mr. A. Kean, yesterday. Up to last Friday 265,000 ova had been collected from fish - stripped, and this is the largest number of eggs taken so early in the year since the inception of the hatchery in 1927. The last batch of trout stripped comprised 21 rainbow, which yielded 90,000 ova, an average of just over 4000 each.
