He has Just sent to tho use an in
terestlng report Of his work In the
shark industry In North Carolina:
you are delaying a surprising treat
by not soaking the salt out Of that

'whip-taIl shark one Of the best that

But the very finest shark. or In fact

quite similar TO that Of a big fat white
shad. ! made m entire meal OF OF the
man-eater shark.
THE same day ! had made a break

I had just caught a cow porpoise with
q very small calf. Porpoise milk may
be all right for those who like It but
I did not much care for It."
In describing the flesh OF the man
eating shark on which he dined as
noted above. Mr. Coles said:
TN color the flesh was a distinct
rich light pink salmon. There was an
almost rouno strip OF nearly black
extending along In the pink flesh ON

pink and black flesh and found both
excellent.

Il was stil alive. A native fisherman
and his mate reported TO me that rs
they hauled up their sink net while I
was taking the sharks from my big
shark net near them. and about the
moment that the young one was
caught. they brought mp a monstrous
shark having a similar tan. which was
an long as their 25-foot launch. and
that Il fought y violently that they
quickly cut loose a large piece OF their
net In which II va ~entangled and let
it escape.
Although these two fishermen are

ch.rrIsa From Russia.

That the cherry world has Its boil
sheviki is explained by Frank A.
Waugh IN the Country Gentleman.
Speaking of the supremacy Of GER
tain American varieties. particularly
the Morello, Montmorency and Early
Richmond. he writes:
"Their supremacy has been often
challenged. Other varieties have been
offered by dozens and almost by hun
dreds.
"The greatest competition arose
through the introduction OF the so
called Russian cherries. These came
along with the other Russian fruits,
mainly ia the importations Of 1870 and
1888. and were exploited mainly In the
Northwest states.
"Prof. J.. l. Budd propagated sew
eral Of these sorts and recommended
them highly. In this company were
included Vladimir. Lutovka, Sklanka,
Ostheim. George Glass. Double Matte.
Lithauer. Brusseler. Braune. Bessa-
rabian, Bunte Amarelle and Spaets
Amareile. There were some others
also. bearing the same flavor OF north
east Germany and southwest Russia"

Need Men at Shell Plants

A great scarcity OF men to work
in loading and packing shells now
confronts most of the munitions
plants in this vicinity. Men are most
urgently needed for that work. The
scarcity of men Is SO great that hun
dreds of women have been taken on
by the munition plants to do the
work OF men. There are many men
employed In non-essential industries
who could be OF a great assistance at
the munition plants.
The local office OF the federal.
state, municipal employment bureau
is doing all in its power to cooperate
with these plants in securing men.
At the present time Jesse Davis, IN
charge OF the Office. said that 1900
men could be used In these munition
factories.

To safeguard Americas vast invest

According TO MIR. Lamont. at least
three fourths of Americas pre-war in
ht.dness has been directly iiuuidated.
while the governmen; has loaned up
wards OF $500. 600 1000 to its allies and
private investors have loaned an I'D
ditional $1,000. 900. 900.
Mr.. Lamont said the committee was
not formed TO deal with any great loans
now in default, but TO study develop
ments In those countries to which we
lave made loans with n view TO seeing
that the dentor country takes no action
imrairing the security or rights OF the
holders Of its bonds in this country"
