New Fish Curing Process.

Commissioner Williams of the shell
fish department of Florida, announces
that new, ingenious and efficient
process for curing fish in great guam
titles Is now being installed at Punta
Gorda, Fla, and should soon be COM
pleted and open for business.
Automatic paraphernalia has been
invented adapted and co-ordinated
whereby the fish are mechanically in
troduced into the apparatus and pass
by progressive steps from one treat
ment or operation to another until
they come out cured in a superior
manner. Whereas the curing OF fish
has heretofore secured period OF
preservation of not more than six or
eight or ten weeks, the new process,
1t is believed, will preserve the prod
uct for at least a year.
The crucial needs of the war have
brought out this process as in many
other cases of different war needs that
have found solution in American in
yentions in line with the times.

Tests conducted by the department
show that fish meal is equal in feed
ing value to tankage. Ii contains
about 81 per cent protein. 1t is made
by drying non-edible fish and grind
ing fine. This meal is being used at
the government farm at Beltsville,

Mr. Russell's visit to the Gulf states

to urge the fisheries to manufacture
these non-edible fish into fish meal for
