We further believe that if said waters were stocked with fish to an extent where the same would compare ^favorably with the lakes and streams off adjoining states, that the public in even greater numbers would make use of said waters as a fishing grounds; that the placing of fish In said waters by the State would not only be a great benefit to the owners of property in the said district but woujfd akjo afford tfto thousand* of Slbtr^M, who each year apply fOr fishing llrnai-- In this State, an idstl plaoa In which to indulge in said sport; And whereas, one of the State Filh Hatcheries is now located at 8prlag Grove, Illinois, which is located tically within, the district or ~ above mentioned and tlfcat, the 1 tlon of fish lh said waters crtud from said hatchery most sAvant *y. T • J THEREFORE, We respectfully petition your Honor to take such action may be necessary to re-stock the waters in the distlct above mentioned with fish in at least the following qnantlufca, to-wit: five million (6,000^00) black bass, Ave million (5,000,000) blua gilt* and cripples, per year, and that If tbo present fish hatchery at Spring Grove to not now of sufficient capacity to bread fish in the numbers mfentiohed that stepi be taken to enlarge the same or 4o. locate in said district another hatchery sufficient to meet the requirements of said territory. 1927ated day M*rch' P' Said motion to adopt waa duly seconded and said resolution vnanimcusly adopted.
