While special accommodations for
the travels OF men, and OF cattle,

that the FISH OF the Inland lakes and

There We're. OF course, special rcfrig-

This Is largely to supply the "lSosh-
er trade" OF the markets. meaning the
trade of orth odox Jews and others who

| brains devised the FISH car" and this
| year most of the live Ash travel in the
new accommodations.
| Each fish car Is equipped with an
| aerating apparatus which pumps oxy-
| gen into the water OF the big tanks,
| for without this the finny travellers
| could not live--the normal amount OF
| aeration would not be enough, Car
| loads amount 10 as much as $4,000

each car 70 see that the wandering ex-

\ AT one haul from the Illinois river

| Constantly the catch Is large. New
| York and Chicago fish wholesalers, of
| whom there are 10000 in the United

| SHIPMENTS EACH YEAR ARE

The shipments of live fish for this

fish catch of all kinds in the United
States is 1000 100000 pounds each
year. of which no one dealer win
handle over per cent.
Kosher fishing" Is In fact but q
small item in the great fishing intius~
try: that industry on this continent
employs 100000 men. and consequent
ly supports more than 100000 peo~
pie. However, the rapid immigration
of orthodox Jews to the United States
has greatly Increased the demand
particularly in New York City for live
fish. The increase of those people has
rapidly changed the character of New
York's population. for most of the i'm,
migrants have stayed there. The de-
mand for Kosher fish" indicates q
ratio Of 30 to l In the numbers OF
orthodox Jews in New York as com
pared with Chicago.
