The Feeding Ground of the Herring

Abstract

I HAVE no desire to set aside lightly the observations of Profs. Herdman, Brady, Scott, or any other scientific gentleman, as suggested by Mr. Calderwood in your issue of November 21. There is no evidence that these gentlemen have made any systematic examination of the deep waters of Loch Fyne, whereas I have carried out investigations of this kind during many years at all seasons under the direction of Dr. Murray and Dr. Mill, and I think Prof. Herdman set these observations very lightly aside in his Ipswich address.
