Excerpt from Bulletin of the United States Fish Commission, 1898, Vol. 18
By affording facilities to those persons who may profit by the use of the material available at its various stations, the Commission not only aids in the general progress of science, but extends its own field of usefulness, if biological problems of even remote economic bearing are solved through the study of the fish or other animals procurable at the laboratory. It was the earnest desire of the late Professor Baird, the founder of the laboratory, that opportunity for such special research should be provided, and during the past year, without in any way interfering with the other work of the station and at practically no expense to the Government, a number of specialists have been enabled to carry on researches which have yielded results of scientific importance.
