Rebukes Talking During Services.

Rev. j. NJ. Cutler, pastor of the
Methodist church, is very much OPP
posed to the habit of talking during
the delivery of his sermons, and be-
fore beginning to preach Sunday
night he made it plain that it met
that he hoped it would not be neces-
sary for him to interrupt his SER
mons in order to disturb any of
his congregation who might engage
in talking as some did the Sunday
night before. The announcement had
its effect and the pastor was not
disturbed, and it is safe to say that
he will not be n the future.

AT the same time that active, de-

measures must be continued without

AMERICAN FISH IS
VALUABLE AS EVER
European Markets Are Now Open
and the Exports Are Enor-
NOUS


IN spite Of the fact that there are
great sections of the United States
where fish is used sparingly, the
output Of American fisheries is as
valuable as that Of any country in
the world. The total production in
1908, the latest year for which com
plete statistics are available, was
somewhat in excess of 1898, 100000
pounds. If to this are added a con-
siderable excess of imports over ex-
ports and a reasonable increase in
the catch since 1908, it seems likely
that the per capita consumption OF
fish in the United States now ex-
ceeds 80 pounds year.
This is not quite half the per CAP
lta consumption in Great Britain, but
it is much larger than that of most
countries and indicates very large
consumption in the districts where
fish is looked upon as an essential
!aIt Of the diet, so large, in fact
chat in seasons Of unusually heavy
catches it is impossible to increase e
the consumption sufficiently to use
Up the surplus fish. At such times
greater efforts are made to sell tc
the inland districts and, to some ex
tent, abroad. With a view to as
fish and fish products in their ef-
forts to find an outlet abroad the
Bureau of Foreign and Domestic
Commerce, Of the Department of
Commerce, has published a. report
entitled European Markets for
Fish"
According to. this report our ex-
ports abroad heretofore have con-
sisted principally of canned salmon
an American product that Is favor
ably known throughout the entire
world. The total exports Of all
kinds average about $11,OOO0OO a
year, and Of this total, canned sal
mon is valued at 100000, fresh
salmon at something over $1,5OO,OOO,
dried, smoked, cured, and picked
fish at $1,000,000, and shelfsh at
very nearly s1,OOO,OOO. The war has,
OF course, made some differences In
the exports. The most serious dislo-
cation Of the trade occurred immed-
lately after the beginning Of hostili-
ties, but later a good recovery was
made and the value of exports since
has been almost normal, canned sal
mon gaining and shellfish! falling
Off
european Markets for Fis1r' soon
tains detailed import statistics for
nearly every country in Europe and
thus affords a means Of determining
the importance of each market and
the kind Of fish that finds the most
favor. These statistics have been
compiled from the original suorces
by the bureau and are the most val
liable feature of the report. There
are also complete statistics for the
United States, including a evry de-
tailed table Of American exports
