1ation of this country. The skate or ray, the shark, the squid, and the all bacore,I are sold here to some extent it is true but they find their sale among the foreign born population, which has learned front experience that they are not alone edible, but ac- tually delicious.
 >> Familiarity, it is said, breeds con tempt, and perchance this is the case with fish foods in this country. They are so easy to get, so reasonable in price, that their desirability is lost sight of by the consumer while abroad where the fish are smaller, poorer in quality, and none too reasonable in cost, they are hailed with de- light.
 Fish is shipped daily from Boston to the inland west, but it's consump- tion there is confined pretty much to former inhabitants of the coast states. Its as a general thing in this country, too, is confined to one day a week, Friday. Abroad, it is eaten several times a week. and in some families, forms a regular part of the daily menu.
 Knowledge of the many appetizing ways in which fish may be prepared for the table is largely responsible for this. The European housewife is An expert fish cook, a gentle art in which as yet the average American housewife has not trained herself.
 To cook fish properly does not re- quire the cognizance of any mystic art, nor any particular trouble But it does require knowledge. Like all simple matters, it's easy when you know how.
 Incidentally, there is hardly any va riety of food susceptible to so many variations in cooking as fish. A cod, for example, may be fried, baked. boil ed, made in patties, salads and served in thousand ways. In food value, and in taste, it is equally satisfactory whether served fried plain, or made into an elaborate dish.
 Nearly 5.000,O0O pounds of fish are annually landed at the Fish Pier, Boston, alone, and from that port fish are shipped to all sections of the country.

ONE OR TWO OUNCES A YEAR.

The United States produces more fish and eats less than any other sea coast nation. With the most fertile fishing banks in the world lying but a few miles from it's shores 10 larg- est fish pier in the world located at Boston, one of it's ports; and one or the swiftest and most efficient transporta- tion systems possible at its service, the United States has not yet learned the lesson, long since dlgested by Europe and Asias that by increasing it's consumption of fish 1t will in crease it's general health and decrease the much-discussed 'tcost of living
 Germany, Russia, with it's great sea coast, the British Isles;- all mari time centers, are such great consum- CTS of sea foods that they are annual Iy forced to import large quantities of fish to supply the needs of their population. America, ignorant, ap- parently, of the advantages to be gained by eating fish, actually exports fish to these countries instead of using it herself.
 Eng1and one of the biggest inn porters of fish, consumes nearly 50 pounds of fish per year per person. America, the greatest fishing nation, consumes between one and two ounces per year per person. Germany con sumes over 40 pounds annually per capita and Russia over 30 pounds.
 In the New England states, the cen ter of this country's fisheries, where the consumption of sea foods should be greatest, only about 13 pounds of fish per capital is consumed annually. And inland this drops appreciably.
 Yet there is no logical reason for this. Transp ortataion facilities are such that fresh fish can be shipped to reach an inland consumer in far better shape than fresh fish caught in the Baltic can reach even the port of Homberg. The handling of fresh fish from the time it is caught on the banks to it's delivery to the consumer has been reduced to a science.
 Federal government experts, long engaged in what has been to date a somewhat fruitless endeavor to call the attention of the general public to the possi abilities of fish as a health fuls tasty, and economical food, bring out the point that increased consump- tion of fish should not mean an in crease in price.
 There is no cost of production, as is the case with meats, no cattle to be fed and fattened; no soil to be fertil- ized and weeded. The sea, unaided, produces the fish, and it requires only increased demand to bring about an increase in the catch.
 Another point to be noted is that Europe and Asia utilize as foods many varieties of fish disdained by the popu-

Very Rich Strike.

The Redeagle Mining Com
pany, composed of DR.. Boswell,
Ed. Miller, Joe Bingham and
Less Allen, and working on the
George Redeagle land, five miles

rich strike of both lead and zinc
a few days ago. In sinking the
shaft into the ore body a car load
of lead ore was taken out, and
beneath the lead 10 "a feet of
verv rich zinc dirt.
The ground was drilled before
the shaft was sunk, and ore was
found by the drill at 49 feet.
The shaft was sunk about 40
feet from the drill hole.

Lucky Ike.

About three or four years ago
w. /. Bingham of Quapaw pur.
chased 80 acres of grass land.
He bought it for farm prices,
mind you, and today it is worth
hundreds of dollars per acre.
About 4 year ago the Picher
Lead Company leased a lot of
land adjoining Ike's purchase and
began a drilling campaign. They
made some awfully big strikes,
and a town started on the
strength of their finds. The
Pieher people put up 4 mill, and
then another one, and now they
are working on a third one.
They say they will build seven
mills before they get through.
And one of the mills is going up
on Ike's land. A shaft is being
pushed down to the ore body,
which is very rich, and it will
not be very long until Ike will be
drawing big royalties. And
mind you, he did not give the
Picher people an ordinary lease,
either. They gave him a cash
bonus of s., 900 for a lease on his
eighty, and besides they are to
cay him a royalty of eight per
cent.
It just comes his way. If he
was to fall in a sewer he would
come out with a new suit of
clothes on and smelling like q
