Excerpt from Transactions of the American Fisheries Society, 1914-1915, Vol. 44 No fish were lost at the hatchery during the summer and fall of 1913 on account of dry weather and low water. The fish were removed from a few ponds and sorted and placed in other ponds where there was plenty of water. What really bothered the Department was the fact that the water in many of the good streams of the State was so low that we did not think it advisable to place fish in them, and many of the ponds for which fish had been ordered were either dry or the water conditions so bad that we did not think it wise to stock them. This made it necessary to hold fish in the hatchery ponds that would otherwise have been distributed. However, when the water did come in the late fall and spring, the hatch ery had the fish to restock the waters of Kansas and, as said in another place, distributed fish in the ponds and streams of 102 of the 105 counties of the State.
