FISH PROFITABLE ALONG BAY
Largest Catches and Highest Prices
Ever Known at Bowers Beach.


Ever Known at Bowers Beach.
Seine fishermen at Bowers Beach
are still having the best Of luck.
Their catches are larger than was
ever known before. They generally
land at each haul from five to ten
bushels of weak fish, crOcus, white
perch and others, which they sell on
the wharf at good prices. On Thurs
day last they sold for SO bushel
from the boat. There is no telling
what the consumer has to pay for
them after they are taken to the city
markets. The fishing crews have
made more money this season than
ever before in the history of fishing
along the Delaware Bay shore. A
number of the men have already in
vested some of their profits in auto
mobiles and others have bought large
trucks in which to take their fish to
the city markets. In addition they
have put away enough money to live
on during the winter. Many of them
are owners of fine cottages along the
shore, while some have bought small
farms near the fishing grounds. This
also applies to the fishermen OF
Slaughter and Cedar beaches. Al
these places the run of fish during
the past year has been the best eve
known. and the price high. Even boy
with their first season at this kind o
work, have been known to receive a
much as $1O0 for a weeks work af
