Keep Your Fish Dry.

Strange as it may seem there is
nothing in the werld that will spoil a
dead fish so quickly as water. II your
fishing conditions are such as to pre-
vent your keeping your catch alive,
by all means kill each enc as quickly
as caught, and having done so dry il
and keep it dry. Remember that q
fish strung through the gills and
thrown oversize is doomed TO a
speedy death by suffocation- II you
must string them use one OF the
patent stringers that holds through
the jaw and gives the fish a fighting
chance for life. If, however, you can
neither treat your catch in this way
nor turn them loose in a tank, kill
them instantly, wipe them quite dry
and keep them sheltered from the sun.
Fish should not be packed so that
they come in direct contact with ice;
place q sheet Of neHabsorbent paper
between Avoid damp moss or sea-
weed in your creel.

Remarkable Case Of Heredlty.

A remarkable case of Inheritance OF
the abnormal fingers possessed by the
first earl of Shrewsbury. related by
DR.. II. DriRkwater ts the Royal So
ciety OF Medicine, is reported 10 the
London Lancet. In a direct male de-
scendant of the earl the ring finger
and little fingers of both hands had
only one joint. the first two bones be-
ing united. and all the toes, except
one. were similarly affected. This
mans father and paterRal grandfather
showed the same abnormality. and
when the body Of the first Lord
Shrewsbury was exhumed In 1874 IL
was found that his fingers were in
like condition. As he died in 145S. this
popularity has csne down nearly 500
years through IA generations.

Would Have Doctors EXEMPTED.

Many members of the medical pro-

medical students have not been ex-

logical students have been exempted.

which win take many of them to the
front. Keeping enough doctors at home
TO take care of the civil population is
one of the perplexing questions faced
by the council of national defense.
Also, the number of students in this
country has been reduced in recent
years by the strict standards imposed
upon schools, which has put many of
them ont of business and increased the
length of time required for a physi-
clan 10 qualify for practice.

BERMUDA IN FOOD CRUSADE
Government Of Island Colony Urges
Farmers Not TO Rely Further On
Imported Supplies.

United States Consul Carl R. Loop,
at Hamilton, says: The department
Of agriculture Of Bermuda has issued
a leafet for general distribution
throughout the colony. urging on the
farmers the necessity OF growing larger
quantities Of food for home consump-
ten. 1t says in part:
'@The government is most anxious
that farmers and others realize the
Importance under present conditions of
increasing local food supplies The
high prices of imported foodstufTs.
which are likely to be still further in
creased in the future, add very great
~ TO the cost of living. and at the
present time it is a patriotic duty for
all TO do their utmost to insure the
practice of economy in every depart
ment OF life.
Heretofore the farmers Of the col
ony have depended too much on i'm
ported and too little on homegrown
foods. The present aim Of every farm
er should be TO produce as much food
for his family and live stock as he can
grow with economy, and 10 have sur
plus TO sell By so doing he can great
ly reduce his own cost of living and
at the same time lessen the colony's de-
pendence on imported foods. The high
cost Of imported feodstufs should In
crease the demand for local grown
foods, and a market would seem to
be assured, especially fer potatoes,
both Irish and sweet, and pigs"
