and has been for two and ha,f months.
While reports of famincs in certain

The lato George w. Perkins carried on. in
quiet way, many practical philanthropics.
Among othor things he launched an Ell TT to
increase tho supply of fish in the mari ,,a OF
the country. hoping thercby'to encourage thc
moro general use OF fish and incihcnta.ly h
lower the demand for and the price OF meat
To this end he had made considerable head
way in acquiring controlling interest IN
hsheries' cold storage plants and the ether
impcdinienta of the trade both about the sea-
coast and about the Great Lakes How much
influence Mr.. Perkins initia! impetus may yet
have on the publ!cs consumrtio1 of FISH
mains to be seen The work is 10 be carried
* would be q wholesome custom TO have
three Fridays or fish days every week instead
or one. Many families do not knew the good
ness of fish in the bill Of fare snpl, because
inc house"ife does not study this market or
strive to enlarge her knowledge OF tho
sources available in the fish mar.ct
The inland sections OF the country, all around
tho extensive Great Lakes basin should h.
amply supplied with fish particularly, and
VIII be If the people will learn to this
valuable and comparatively cheap food |
say sea food should be more freely used here
soitre among children In this area 1t is all
but proved that the why so many
girls from ten to eighteen years of age develop
soitre through the Middle West is cause
their food docs not supply sufficient ,.turau
food Iodine. Sea food supplies this essential
substance.
Prejudice against fish as a substitute for
animal flesh in the dietary resla upon three
frail fancies: C) II is wrongly imagined that
animal flesh Is more STRENGTHENING than fish
CD fish was not attractive item as mar
keted far from the source In years past--but
rapid transit and cold storage correct
this drawback; CD the average housewife has
no knowledge OF the value OF the many va
rsetics OF fish available in differ n Of
the year. because she just ignores this i'm
portant source OF cheap food.
Limiting fish day to Friday means th,.S atn
men must make enough profit from sales
for day to pay their expenses for tho
whol~T'eck. Therefore. domnnI for fish
other days would surely bring dow, the price
Of fish. AND II people will learn not to order
Ash out OF season. cold storage costs will be
greatly diminished.
fourth objection sometimes offered against
fish is unappctizinG cooking. That is the
fault OF the cook. not OF the dsli. In good
cooking there Is such word "nshy.
