PoRPoIsE FISHERY IS OLD
One Of Least Known Industries Has
Been In Existence at Cape Hat
teras for 200 Years.

One Of the Oldest and least-knOwn
Industries in America Is the porpoise
fishery which has been operated from
Cape Hatteras in North Carolina for
about 200 years. It should attain an
unusual prosperity in the next few
years, for the bureau Of fisheries IL
urging more general use Of porpoiss
hides In place Of cowhides. It Is an
excellent leather, and could undoubt-
edly be used more widely.
Heretofore the most valuable prod
uct of the fishery has been the oil
which Is extracted from the jaws Of
the porpoise. and 10 worth about $40
a gallon. It is universally used for
lubricating watches and other very del
icate mechanisms. The body blubber
is also valuable. Attempts to manu-
facture ferdliser out Of the carcass
have failed because Of the distance
from fuel supply.
The porpoise are taken at Hatteras
in seines, operated from the shore, and
1t Is probably the only place in Amer
lea where this has ever been done
successfully. During the fall. winter
and spring many porpoises are seen
of the South Atlantic coast, and at
Hatteras they come within few hun
dred yards Of the surf. They are
taken by spreading seines about 200
yards outside the surf lines. As soon
as the porpoises have come inside the
seines, they are dragged ashore. Often
a whole school Of these sea creatures
is taken in q single haul.
