THE FISH SEASON ABOUT IN.
Big Shipments TO be Made From Saw
annah This Year.

/ Shipments OF fish we're made from Saw
annah yesterday but the season proper will
not open until the latter part Of next week
The dealers are sending out cards to their
customers. notifying them of the com
mencement of shipments.
| One Savannah dealer said Yesterday
that the season promised to be a
| good one The weather has not been
severe and tho chances for a big
/ supply are god. The demand, he pre-
/ dicted, will belarge. From every section Of
the state come encouraging reports from
/ the crops, and when the people have pros
! per US year il naturally booms the fish
| trade as well as other lines Of business.
| The larger part of the supply will come
! from Florida, the dealer said One Savan-
nah dealer sent twenty hands through 10
| Puata Gorda yesterday. It Is expected
that during the season over 1900 barfe.s
| OF fish viii be shipped from Savannah 10
the interior. Last season was a good one
until the yellow fever broke it up. The
dealers do not anticipate any Interference
from that source this season.
Shad will not come in before December.
they were very cheap last year, ranging
| from p cents to - cents. They sold the
year before as high as 80 cents to IS cents
The dealers do not know Just what to
attribute the falling off in price to. IL is
certainly not that the planting of sha1 in
the waters tributary to Savannah has made
the difference While there is a large
quantity of Shad in Savannah waters, they
are not the variety that is demanded here
They are hickory shad, very small, and not
10 be compared with white shad, the variety
which has been caught in Georgia waters
until recently. 1t is the opinion OF the
fishermen that the commission is planting
hickory shad Instead of white shad The
fishermen are beginning to think TIA at they
are being imposed upon, and If
the inferior snRd continue sto be
planted in Georgia waters they say
there is a likelihood of serious interference
with this culture Of white shad. Not many
people are able TO distinguish the difference
between the two varieties until after they
are cooked. The flavor, however, is very
different. They are readily distinguished
by fishermen and by careful buyers, if ex-
anined. The mouth of ths hickory shad is
Informed and is generally black.
The under lip protrudes while
the mouth of the white shad is we'll formed
and is white. Besides this difference the
white Shad is muca larger and better pro
portioned. The color of the fish is about
the same, with the excep ion of the mouth.
The oyster season does not open until
September. The season promises to be good,
the fish'men say. The oyster bill which is
pending in the legislature, they apprehend,
will hardly affect the culture of oysters, or

Of the city have been crowded with wagons
and carts from the country during the

county. None Of the farmers live nearer
than forty-five miles TO Savannah. They
leave their homes one day and it is the
evening of the next before they get TO the
city. They are here generally three
or four days selling their fruit but
the market IS dull this week and they
have nos met with the prompt sales that
they did few weeks ago. Peaches are sell
ing now for OlSIlerably less thaa 81 % Der

One OF the wagonerS was asked yesterday
why he brought fruit 50 far through the
country, and he replied that it was the
cheapest means of dispJsing of it. No
railroads ar3 near enough to ship the fruit
The farmers are as far from the railroad as
they are from Savannah. Some member
OF their families generally accompany
ihen to Savannah whel tuey come to sell
fruit. Food for the horses aud for them
selves Is provided them when they leave
home, and they camp on the way down in
the woods By the roadside. Their wagons
are provided with canvas covers and they
manage Co make themselves very COM
Portable at niglt. The farmers seem to
enjoy the trip. They carry back with them
as much provis.ol and clothing as their
returns on fruit viii admit.

the commission merchants. The farmers
means Of dispOsing OF the fruit are SO lim-
tied that many times they lose money. They
get to market as early as they can in the
morning and locate their
carts on the west side Of the market honse.
The owner of each cart sits in the rear end
of his cart with peck measure full Of
peaches He refuses p cents for them when
he first offers them for sale, but he let's
them go for 10 cents before night, aud some
times he doesn't get that much At night
the carts are driven into the wagon yard
and the farmers stretch themselves out
under their canvas and go to sleep. After
they sell out their produce they wait over
for each other and look over Savannah. and
one of them said last night that if their trip
is not very paying one it is q very enjoy
able one.
