A piquant relish most acceptably
served with most meats, especially
those cooked in the plainest way and
using the coarser cuts. 1t is always
'in market" and only the freshly
grated root should be used. The
sauce most generally used is the plain
grated root with vinegar, sugar and
salt to taste. This is usually used
with pork, roast of beef or flank steak
or with boiled salmon or trout.

Seattle, Wash.-Striking at exist
ing prison systems, Miss Rachael
Marshall, former student at the Uni
versity Of Washington and now
playwright, has just produced ''The
Crime of the Law" This is Miss Mar
shall's second play 1t is meeting with
as great success as did her first "The
Traffic, (" which is now being produced
in the East ---.
''The Crime of the Law" shows in
a forceful manner the way in which
criminals are made at penal institu-
TONS The material was gathered in
the federal prison at McNeils Island,
the state penitentiary at Walla Walla,
and at Salem, Ore. Miss Marshall was
assisted in a large measure by Gov.
West of Oregon, who has many ideas
on prison reform.
When first produced there was
climax in the first act which dulled
interest in the remainder of the show.
Undaunted, she set to work rearrang-
ing the production. The play in. its
new form received complete approval
on the opening night of the second
week. -,,-.---

have said this hundreds of times
in my school work. ...
every woman who works outside
her home runs up against this thing
which men call chivalry, and she is
very apt to find that many men are
like the man knew on the school
board. The one who pays her the
greatest compliments is the one who
consistently and constantly votes for
less salary for women teachers than
for the men who we're doing the same
work.
IT'S all very well to prate Of mems
chivalry when you want anything
which men do not want for them
selves. But just once come in COM
petition with them in business, hold
down a job that one Of them thinks
he would like and almost any one of
them will shed his chivalry in an in
slant and stoop to just as many little
meannesses toward you as he would
do to man"

"A subject to which the bureau is CIV
ing great attention is the popularizing
Of highly desirable food products Of the
waters which now are neglected by the
public or which are used only to slight
extent. This country has been SO bounti-
fully supplied with food fish that we
have been able to take our pick and to
ignore many varieties of fish. shell fish
and molusks that in other countries are
he'd In high esteem as food.
THE time is coming when, in order to
meet the demand and the drain. we must
look to products. now neglected, to in
crease the nations food supply. 1t Is
not a mere Jest to say that there are
just as good fish In the sea as ever were
caught but the American people have
not cultivated taste for them as yet.
Our waters abound with excellent food
products that, so far as the bulk of the
population is concerned, never have been
tasted.
Take for example. the silver hake. or
whiting. Less than nineteen years ago
there was practically no market Tor TINS

taken in pound nets were thrown away
The bureau took up the subject, cam
paigned on it. and now the sales OF this
fish in New Eng and have increased from
about 100. 900 pounds annually to more
than 100000 pounds:
Surveys made by the bureau IN Alaska
have demonstrated that there are from
$50 to 300 species of fish suitable Ior
now used at all. In Importance they are
still SO greatly overshadowed by the
salmon, the cod and the halout that
there is no demand for them. but taken
in the aggregate they constitute great
national food resource.

in abundance the identical species Of
mussel that is sought after in Europe
and eaten as a de icacy. We are now
campaigning to make it popular here,
and have issued a bulletin, Sea Mussels:
What They Are and How to Cook Them.
Great Britain and Ireland consume about

France more than 100000 pounds.
Americans seem to think they are of no

trying to make the facts known. for the
sea mussel is delicious, nutritious,
wholesome and cheap.
IAN unusual food fish of immense value
is the tile fish, discovered by the bureau
In 1878. The fish weighs as nush as forty
pounds, and the flesh is delicate anu

state fishery authorities and the mem
bers of the American Fish Cultural AS
ISOLATION now the American Fisheries
bureau devoted to fishery interests.
Congress was thus Influenced to action,
and in the year named passed joint
resolution creating the Office of COM
missioner of fish and fisheries.
cit was provided that the commissioner
should be a civil officer of the govern
ment, of proved scientific and practical
acquaintance with fishes of the coasts,
who would serve without additional COM
pensation. The man generally regarded
as pre-eminently qualified for the new
position was Prof. Spencer Fullerton
Baird, then assistant secretary of the
Smithsonian Institution. who received
the appointment, at once entered on his
duties, and continued the efficient and
highly respected head of the commission
until his death in 1887.
THE position was virtually created for
him, and am profoundly convinced that
he was created for the position. Since
then, beginning as an independent COM
mission the organization has become
bureau Of the Department of Commerce.
1.-The initial work was to determine
whether there was decrease of the food
fishes on the Atlantic coast. and if so to
what cause was the decrease due. From
this beginning have grown the important
and manifold duties of the bureau.
aside from the work Of pure investi-
cation it socn became manifest that the
larger activities of the bureau might well
be directed to the artificial propagation
Of food fishes. since no police powers
were lodged in the federal government
and it coull have nothing to do with the
infractions of existing fishing laws and
the establishment OF new ones. Hence
has grown up our widely distributed sys-
tenn of hatcheries for food and game
fishes.
'"rhe operation of these hatcheries. pos
sessing a distinct economic value. has
proved tremendously popu!ar-so popular
in fact, that we have had to restrain the
demand on US. For example. in one re
cent session of Congress bills were intro
duced for the establishment of no less
than ninety new hatcheries. Had they
all become law we would have been
