PROJECT FOR CAN FISH.
Milford Gamer to Enter Upon the
Experiment of Canning Bay Trout.

Milford Gamer to Enter Upon the
Experiment of Canning Bay Trout.
George H. Prettyman, one of Mil
ford well-known Gamers, will this
season try out another project in the
way of canning, as soon as the fishing
season for trout begins, he will com
mence to can them. He has made all
arrangement in the way of new ma
chinery for the packing of them, and
will have large number of sein fish
ers along the shore of both Cedar and
Slaughter Beach. There he will have
motor trucks ready and as soon as
the fish are taken out of the nets they
will be brought to the packing house,
where he will have a number of
women to scale and clean them, and
they will be put into the can in the
raw state, capped and then cooked in
the same way that tomatoes are cook
ed. If the venture proves a paying
business this year, Mr.. Prettyman
Will next year build a large packing
and canning house on the bay shore
and give employment to a large num-
ber Of men and boys in fishing, while
the women folks will be employed in
the cleaning department. This year,
in addition to cleaning trout, he will
pack them in barrels. Delaware bay
trout salted are being sold in large
lots to city fish dealers. They sold
on the beach for from $40 to $12 per
barrel, last year, and the demand was
greater than the supply.

Pine Built Like a Cornet.

A tobacco pipe of unusual design
has been invented by Warren Murray
Baechtel of Hagerstown, Md. Every
pipe smoker knows that the longer the
stem of his pipe the cooler will be the
smoke. Pipes with stems few feet
long have been in use in different
countries for many years, but their
awkward length precluded their use
outside of the house. The inventor OF
the pipe circumvented the difficulty by
coillng the stem of the pipe like the
tube of cornet or signal horn. The
coils are connected at their lower END
to form dripping chamber for receiv-
Ing the saliva which accumulates In
the STEM Each coil has an !ndepend'
ent opening into the dripping chamber
and a screw cap at the bottom gives
access to 1t for the removal OF the
accumulated saliva. The smoke, In
passing through the coils of the stem
is drained several times Of saliva and
nicotine.

The San Francisco Chronicle tells
the following experience told by Brig.
Gen. Benjamin Alvord when the latter
was adjutant general of the A. K. +.
The general had been sent by General
Pershing to make an inspection about
Colombey-les-Belles.
He walked around without getting
the attention the doughboys would
show an officer of his rank. No one
saluted him and no one noticed him.
ks,isee- ii, a while captain or major
would snap a salute, but not the en-
listed men. 1t rather riled the general
who always scrupulously followed
army regulations himself. Finally
when 4 private passed him with q
cigar in his mouth, and, although look
ing right at him, failed to salute, the
general thought it was time to call
halt.
"Come here, young fellow" he called
"Say, what do you do in this CAM

nodded disconsolately as he climbed
aboard a homebound car. He must
have felt premonition as he
mourned, for it is unlike Mr.. Travers
to regret his losses; and when he ar
rived home he broke the news to Mrs.
Travers, along with the implied sug-
gestion that little economy for the
next few weeks would not come in
amiss. Mrs. Travers said nothing in
her most sympathetic manner, and the
evenings conversation covered topics
wholly foreign to prize fights. AT the
breakfast table next morning Mr..
