Fish Frozen By New Method

A novel way to freez fish for shipment has been invented in Denmark, according the the Fishing News, of Aberdeen, Scotland, which consists of dipping the fish in fresh water and then thrustng it into 6 vessel containing refrigerated brine. The fresh water film around the fish congeals in- stantly, preventing the ac- cess of salt from the brine. So quickly does this method work that a live codfish IS inches long was frozen hard enough to be sawed in fifteen minutes.
