CAUGHT BIG TURTLE
II Was an Old One and Was Set

Free.
A turtle measuring 6 fest from
head to tail 'and 8 feet across it's
shell. the head being Is inches in
circumference, was caught recently
BY japanese fishermen Off Yokohama
and released by All Long, Chinaman.
who paid $55 for the privilege Of CIV
ing the turtle its freedom. The tur-
tie weighed 600 pounds, and its age
was estimated at 1000 years.
Probably the reason for the pur-
chase and the freedom given to the tur.
tie Is that the reptile Is a sort Of sacred
emblem and the Chinaman who can set
one free in the ocean considers him
self especially blessed.
An Interesting ceremony followed
the financial transaction. All Long fed
the turtle with several bowls Of sake,
the favorite alcoholic drink Of the
Japanese prohibition having made lit.
tie inroads there), and accompanied by
as many friends as could be accommo-
dated in two sampans sailed out to
sea, and after many prayers were
said the turtle was released.

Plan War on Waste .
With War Stamps

Washington.-The department
Of commerce has declared war
on the city dump. The waste
reclamation service has formu-
lated n plan which will lessen
annual loss. The War Savings
stamp and the Thrift stamp will
compete with the city dump for
thousands Of tons OF valuable
material.
This is "Clean Up and Paint
Up" time, and the accumulation
of the winter will be moving to
the dump. Urban communities
annually send to the dump IS
tons Of valuable waste for every
1000 persons. Twenty per cent
Of this is waste paper. About
10000 tons Of paper are sent to
the dump annually. 4 ii
Great Britain under the stress
Of war Increased collection Of
waste paper from 1000 tons to
about 5000 tons a week. This
was effected through the efforts
Of the controller OF paper. The
War Savings and Thrift stamp
can become the paper controller
for this country. The waste rec
fsnation service has requested
the local waste reclamation
councils to assign a waste dealer
to each district aud to have the
housewife sell her waste for
