STORAGE WHALE
MEAT PROMOTED
FOR HOME TABLE
$4,000, 600 Pounds Are In Reach of U.
s. Markets Yearly.

Baltimore, Md. When whale
meat luncheon was givenT in the
spring in the Museum of Natural His
tory the people of the Pacific coast
J decided that the diet had sufficiently
:, strong scientific backing to give 1t a
trial Now reports to the museum, as
cited in the current issue OF the Jour
nal, show that whale meat has been
placed on regular sale in the munich
pal markets in Portland, Ore, and
that is use has been energetically pro-
NOTED in Seattle, San Francisco and
other coast cities.
All whaling factories on the coast
as a result are becoming equipped to
utilize the meat for food, either in
canned form or as cold storage pro-
duct. The Victoria Whaling company
has placed the entire output of one
cold storage plant and fresh orders
for the product are piling up rapidly.
1t is probable that the demand on the
Pacific coast will be so great that lit
tie of the meat will be sent to eastern
cities. The British government also
is considering the use OF whale meat,
and has addressed inquiries to the
museum regarding it. Although it is
a strange diet for Americans, its use
is not new elsewhere Inhabitants of
the Scottish Islands have used it for
centuries, as have the Japanese. AS
early as 1861 whales tongues were
an important article of commerce In
the Basque provinces of Gascony, on
the Bay of Biscay,
In Japan the meat is eaten either
fresh or canned, single whale sup
plying, according to the records, as
much as 10000 pounds. The seven
whaling stations on the American Pa
cific coast, with the one on the Allan
tic side of the continent, have COM
bined summer catch of about 1000
whales, making available for distribu
ton in America a yearly supply of
nearly 5O,OOOOOO pounds of palatable
and nourishing food.
The meat is darker colored and
somewhat coarser grained than beef,
but has no fishy flavor, and when
properly cooked it tastes much like
venison. An analysis of the canned
meat recently made by the bureau of
fisheries in Washington showed its
protein value to be "a per cent, as
against from 10 to IA per cent. in
beef, mutton or pork.

FACTORY OWNER, BOTTLES
SHELL WITH HAMMER

Manchester, England-A typical ex-

shell manufacture. The usual method
of "bottling" or shaping the nose of a
shell is by hydraulic pressure.f The
plant, however, had no presses.
81 can bottle shells with a steam
hammer" said the manager and he
did it, turning the shells upside down
in a mold and hammering their
noses in. Many shell factories in the
district now are employing this
method.

GREAT INR0ADS ON FRENCH
HERDS

Since the outbreak of the wal
France has suffered a loss of $500 ,OOC
head of cattle. Deducting 100000
for the loss due to the total or partial
invasion of some 10 departments, there
is diminution of sorha 100000 head
Moreover, the cattle have greatly
lost in weight. Before the war the
average weight in meat of slaughter
ed cattle was from 40 to $50 pounds
whereas today it hardly exceeds 55C
or $40 pounds. To obtain in the fu-
ture the same quantity of meat as to-
day an ever-increasing number of
cattle will have to be slaughtered.

MEXICAN IMMIGRATION LAWS
LIFTED

Under no circumstances will Mex
lean laborers entering this country
for harvesting be forced to perform
military service. Provost Marshal
General Crowder, of the War Depart
ment, states as follows:
Mexican citizens of military age
who have not been residents of the
United States and who temporarily
come into this country after July 2
are not required to register and are
consequently not liable to military
service. A Mexican citizen of military
age who had previously resided in the
United States but who had not regis
tered and who returns to the United
States is required to register, but the
selective-service law and regulations
provide for his complete exemption
from performing military duty unless
he valves his right thereto"
Under ruling of June 20 Mexicans
can be brought into the United States
for agricultural purposes for the
period of the war. The head tax is
suspended as we'll as the illiteracy
test. Application for the importation
of Mexican labor should be made to
the United States Employment Bureau
or the immigration Bureau.
The Southwestern States will be
materially benefited by any suspen-N
sions of the immigration laws, as the
labor situation is very grave. These
States always have looked with favor
toward the Mexican laborer.

There was quite a rush of melons
on the Maysville market yesterday
and prices dropped to a very reason
able point. 1t is understood that de-
spite the report that the melon crop
was practically failure, there are
quite few melons in this section of
the country and for the next several
weeks we can expect a large number
to be offered for sale here.
