GREAT ENLARGEMENT
OF LEWES FISH PLANTS
Large Fertilizer Factories to be
Erected to Dispose Of the
Catch Of 80 Fishing Boats.

Special Correspondence OF Every Evening
Lewes, Feb. lO.-The Hayes and Ander-
ton Fishing Co. of New York City, which
operated the Breakwater Fisheries Co $
plant here two wears ago. h purchased
the Breakwater Fisheries Co.'S plant and
the Coast Fish Oil and Fertilizer Co.'s
plant, and expect to operate both plants
hereafter. This firm has about 80 fishing
steamers and is the largest concern of its
kind in the United States. Extensive re
pairs and additions will be made to both
plants, in order to take care of the catch
of that many steamers when the height of
the season is on. At present only two
elevators, one at each plant, are run,
which means that only two boats can be
,mloaded at one time. 1t IL proposed To
erect at least four more elevators and build
another pier. and to build fish tanks that
will take care Of at least sc. 900 barrels OF
fish at one time, which few years ago
was seasons catch for small plant.
In addition to this the company IN
tends TO build large fertilizer factory
which viii cover a greater part of the land
they now have under lease. and instead OF
shipping the scrap away in barges, to man
ulacturc all the output into fertilizers,
which will mean employment for q large
number of men the year around, and will
bc n great benefit to this community,
especially in the winter months. At pres
ent the only employment for the laboring
man is at the fish plant. loading scrap
when the weather permits.
Last season more than GOO, 900 barrels of
fish were caught here at the three plants,
being a record breaking season for many,
years. and the coming season, it is pre-
dcted will be even more profitable one,
owing TO the fact that the fish were poor
last season and are expected to be larger
and fattcr this year.

ACIDS In STOMACH

CAUSE INDIGESTION

"Experience has taught me that most
pcople who complain OF stomach trouble
and indigestion possess stomachs that are
perfectly healthy and normal" says a
well known authority. The real trouble,
which causes an the sourness, gas and
pain is excessive acid IN the stomach.
This acid irritates the delicate stomach
lining. sours and ferments the food be-
fore the point Of digestion Is reached.
Artificial digestents are not needed In
such cases. They give only temporary
relief. do not correct the cause and often
do great harm. A better plan, n you
suffer after eating, rs to drink glass OF
hot Magncsia water made from a tea
spoonful or four tablets Of pure Bisu-
rated Magnesia. which can be obtained
from any reliable druggist. This in
stantly neutralizes the acid, sweetens the
stomach and your meal digests naturally
without pain. Try this for a few weeks
and see II your stomach does not feel one
hundred per cent better.
