Bureau of Fisheries announces that
there are dozen or more seaweeds in
the waters of the Pacific coast which
contain agar-agar. Four of these have
been studied In detail and are pro-
nounced as good as or better than sea-
weeds used for the same purpose in
the Orient. or course. cost of produc-
ton is a factor to be considered, hut
there is no reason to believe that vc
could not produce the substance more
cheaply than we can import 1t. The
methods of preparing agar-agar from
these seaweeds are known In detail to
the Bureau OF Fisheries and can bc
obtained by any one interested. ThcY
do not involve an expensive plant or
equipment. Rakes. kettles and wooden
trays seem to be about the only things
necessary. The product must be frozen.
and where temperatures do not go low
enough to do this out-of- doors. some
form of artificial refrigera ton would
have to be employed.
A VALUABLE WEED
This Is only one of several uses 10
which seaweeds may be put There is
already in this country small indus
try In the preparation OF gelatine frou,
the seaweed commonly known as Irish
moss. This gelatine is widely used in
food and has much more gelatinizirC
power than the animal gelatine. This
Irish moss gelatfne, or Carragcenin. a
1t is called in commerce, has many
other uses, and Its manufacture might
he extended. 1t is used In making
water paints. shoe polishes. and az
sizing for paper, cloth and thread. II
Is used In shaving and other soaps be-
cause of the fine velvety lather It pro-
duces. II is used as n clarifying agent
in making oil and beer. Bandoline a
perfumed mucilage made from Irip1
moss. is used to make unruly hair ard
mustaches behave. The substance alto
has medical value.
The chief source OF supply for Irish
moss is the region around Scituatc.
Mass, where about thirty men We're
recently engaged in collecting It. There
are half a dozen other places in Mass
achusetts. in New Hampshire and in
New York where the moss Is collected
and prepared for market Doubtlcs.s
there are many other places where IL
might be obtained It's preparation Ia
very simple. 1t is merely washed in
sea water and dried on the beach ur-
I'll bleached It Is then packed In bar
rels and sold. 1t brought about 10
cents a pound in 1920. The Bureau or

methods and localities 70 any one In

Washington, d. c., Oct. ls.-There is
wealth under the sea. not far from the
shore. for any one who has enough en-

This submarine treasure is not in
the gold and bullion of lost Spanish

At least sea weed is one of the most
abundant and easily accessible forms
OF 1t. There is much untouched wealth
IN the ocean. The seas of the world
arc Its great unexpected natural re-

them. almost exhausting the more
easily obtained supplies in some cases
and that is all. The saying is literally
true that there are better fish in the
sea than ever were caught. And be-
sides fish, there is wealth In hundreds
of other things.
The people of the United States have
been especially backward about cx-
plotting the wealth of their coastal
waters. They waste fish which other
countries consider delicacies. They i'm
