RED WINGED SEA ROBINS.
They Are Among the Most Curfoul

They Are Among the Most Curious
-. Fish Along Our Shores.
1 suppose the popularity which would
be noticed first about the sea robin.

called, would be his clumsy shape.
The head Is large and deep In COM
parison with the body. One Of our OBJ
serving young folks, looking at him
alive in his tank Of the United States
fish commission, Washington, would
be apt to exclaih, "Oh, see, he has lit
tie hook claws which help him crawl
along" Sure enough, Just In front of
the pecto-al or side fms are three httle
fngeriike processes on each side, which
are used to stir up weeds and sand
and to rake around among the pebbles
and rout out the small animals upon
which the sea robin feeds in its native
waters. While doing this it seems to
be crawling along over the bottom by
hooking these peculiar claws into the
sand. Fr #s& r.%
Sea robins feed on small crabs, fish,
shrimps and other diminutive animals
which they find among the loose stones.
In Europe all the gurnard family Of
fishes are eagerly sought, as they find

weight Of eleven pounds. Our species
OF the sea robin, a cousin to the Euro-
pean variety, Is found on our northern
coast and Is taken in great numbers
IN the pound nets along Vineyard sound,
where they spawn during the summer
months.
They are much esteemed for the
table, being one Of the most delicate

GERMANY. A MARKET
THAT BELONGS TO us

. = . no
Breeders Gazette: It has been as
serted that Germany has already
ceased to be a customer for American
food products, and that the new tariff
which goes into eect March 1 next
will have but little influence upon
markets in thds country. The Sact is
poimted out that Germany took only
a trivial amount Of American wheat
and -four in the fiscal year ending
june 80 last, and only a small amount
of meats; although her purchases of
cotton, copper and other raw materials
for her Industries are large. ~%a.a
It is true that under the present
German tariff we exported only a
small amount of wheat and -four to
Germany last year, but this was be
cause of the unusually short wheat
CROP of 1904. Our millers had all they
could do to- supply Latin-America and
the Orient, which depend entirely I'D
on the United States; and in keeping
up this limited export trade they had
to bid UP prices ow wheat in this
country to a higher level than we have
known for twenty-five years, except
in the Letter corner. The United
States was out of the European mar
ket for a year, because we did not
have the wheat. The crop of 1902 dn
this country was large, amid the far
mers were sOrely in need of mar
ket. Germany took in the year end
ing June 80, 1903, about 20,OOO, 900
bushels of our surplus, and over a
million barrels of -four, equivalent to
rs 100000 bushels of our CROP This,
year, from the crop OF 1905, American
farmers have a surplus OF nearly 200,-

to he delivered at German ports be.
fore MARCH 1, when the new tariff
goes into effect. After that date, the
German demand in our markets will
cease entirely, and the effect will be
keenly felt by the producers of this
country. 4.>5 Is -
It is also true that Germany has al.
ready excluded American meats, ex
ceptin!g a little bacon and salt beef
and the new tariff will not make mat
tiers much worse. The domestic meat
supply OF Germany, however, falls fa1
short of the demand, and that country
imports from Austria every year about
$50, 100000 of live animals and meat
products. Germany buys some SIS,
DOC, 900 a year of American lard, and
wherever people need lard they need
meat. There Is no doubt that under
a fair trade agreement or treaty Ger
many would take $5O,OO0,OO0 or more
of our live stock products, in addition
to the lard she now buys; and amy
one familiar with conditions in our
great live stock markets knows hIow
sadly this outlet is needed for our
surplus. f.. ~ ...,
