Excerpt from Fish Hatching, and Fish Catching
It must not, however, be forgotten that this new art is as exact and exacting as any other, nor that it has its limits and must be managed with care and not slurred over or slighted. To the ignorant and indifferent it will yield no more than the cultivation of the land and possi bly not so much, and precisely whatthose limits are of which we speak and what are the requisites of circum stance and manipulation, this work is intended to show. This is meant for a practical book on a practical subject, in which nothing shall be stated on conjecture; no mere fancy picture however alluring shall be presented to the public, and the bare facts with plain directions shall be given that all who wish may read and understand, and all who have the opportunity may practice what is herein set forth. With that view no attempt will be made at grace of diction, and scientific names, formulas and information Will be omitted as far as is thoroughly consonant with the purpose to be attained, and no farther. Many mis apprehensions exist in the public mind in relation to a matter which has dawned upon the world so lately and so suddenly, expectations as extravagant in some direc tions as they are depressed in others, and while one man will try to raise the best of fish from the worst of waters, another doubts if anything can be achieved from the most favorable opportunities. It is the function of this book to correct these mistakes and preventthese blunders.

Excerpt from Fish Hatching, and Fish Catching
During the few years which have intervened since the discovery of fish culture, its practice has advanced with rapid strides, and although it is still little more than in its infancy; the laws which govern its management have been so far ascertained and applied that it is now an established art, capable of yielding vast results for the benefit of mankind. The days of doubt and uncertainty have passed away, and numerous experiments leading invariably to the same end have established it on a firm basis. For a time cautious persons, even when most enthusiastic could not help questioning in their own minds what the final outcome would be, and whether all that was predicted for the new undertaking would be realized, but success in all well considered and properly conducted attempts has swept away fear and hesitation, and experience may now be said to have fully confirmed the highest hopes of the most sanguine. The possibilities which fish culture suggested were so far beyond what can be obtained in other fields of human labor, so greatly exceeded the best results in agriculture that it seemed impossible that they could be realized, or that this enterprise would have remained so long undiscovered or undeveloped. But day after day and year after year the theory has been put in practical operation, where all its steps could be and were accurately noted, and the incredible increase and profit obtained left but one conclusion possible.
