URGES USE OF WHALE, MEAT
Uncle Sans Bureau 81 Fiskte'rries Ex.
poets Early Demand Both in Fresh
and Preserved Form. ~

For some time Uncle SANS bureau
Of fisheries In correspondence and in
personal interviews, has been advocat-
ing the use Of the meat of whales, por-
poises, dolphins, and other cetaceans
for food. There is evidence of great
interest now being manifested in this
matter by whale fishermen on both
coasts. and it would not be surprising
to the bureau if within short time
the meat Of whales and smaller ceta-
ceans in both fresh and preserved
form would be in demand and exten.
sively utilized.
Whales and porpoises are mammals;
like cattle and sheep, and their flesh
is "meat" and not "fsh." In texture
and appearance it resembles beef,
though the color Is darker rcd and the
flavor is closer to that meat than any
other. 1t is devoid Of all fishy taste.
1t is likely that it will soon be obtain.
able fresh, corned, and canned, and ii
is recommended by the bureau to
those who have the opportunity to pur'
chase it.
Whale meat was placed on the mar
ket in Seattle, Wash, and Portland
Ore. The product met with a ready
sale at 10 cents pound and was i'm.
mediately placed on the menus Of no
tells and restaurants under its proper
name. 2. = Il. ri, 81 :@fse
