How the Fishing Is Done.

To begin With the fishermen take the
birds out II by n from the cage
and put round the neck a small metal
ring, which presses a part Of the gullet
SO that any fish Except tiny ones)
swallowed may not reach the birds
stomach. Then they attach q long
string to the bird, which they hold in
the hand. During the fishing season
the birds are never fed in the daytime
so as to enable them to pursue the fish
With furious activity owing to hunger,
which is appeased by tiniest fishes
swallowed upright. as the band is
loosely fastened. 1t requires, indeed,
great skill and dexterity on the part Of
the fishermen to control the cords with
out getting hopelessly entangled. He
must, moreover, encourage the birds
movements and ~anxiously watch them,
for when they have completely filled
their outlets they swim idly upon the
surface. It is almost incredible to
those who have not seen the operation
what activity the bird displays under
water in quest of its prey, and in a
shallow part Of the river a fish rarely
escapes the birds keen eyes and sud
den turns, unless it takes refuge I'M
der a stone or in the mud. The bird
then returns to its keeper, and a little
manipulation Of its neck effects the
delivery Of the booty. 1t may then be
let loose again to recommence it's
thanlsless task.
Generally FIVE or seven of the fish
ing boats are at work in company,
making q line that usually extends
| across the river. The fishermen's
torches make the scene so bright that
| one would think the river was on fire,
and it is sometimes full of boats with
| spectators, who come from the neigh
boring districts to enjoy the picturesque
sight as well as the evening cool.

BIG FIELD OF CARRIAGES.
Joseph zarotny Has $4,000 Head
Growing.


The unusual sight of field contain
ing $4,000 cabbage plants nearing ma
turity is attracting considerable atten-
ton at Joseph Zarotny' farm, former
~ the Davis place, on the Mortified
road.
The field comprises five acres with
5000 plants to the acre, and is the
largest single crop of cabbages ever
grown in this town. Mr. Zarotny is a
successful tobacco and vegetable grow
err and always makes speciality of cab
bages, but never before this year on
such an extensive scale.
Considering the low cost of produc-
ton and the slight risk of failure this
crop is more profitable than tobacco. This
year he used manure for fertilizer and
set out the plants with his tobacco set
ting machine. The piece has been cul-
tivated but once and all the work,
with the exception ofsthe men required
to feed the plants into the setter, has
been done with horses.
Last year Mr.. Zarotny lost many
heads that burst open because of too
large growth, but this year by planting
three weeks later he thinks that he
has avoided a similar loss. He expects
to sell this years crop at higher
price than that of last year, which was
five cents head, Che same cabbage
selling in the winter as high as one
dollar each for the largest and best
heads, which shows that the farmer s
profit was exceedingly small compared
with that of the middleman.
