EASTER SHAD CATCH HUGE

BALTIMORE. March 3o.-While
local fish dealers last week were pre-
dieting the extinction of the shad

tect them during the spawning sea-
son. nshermen on the eastern shore
were hauling them in in seines in
such numbers that today the Balti-
more market is practically slutted
with shad and the bottom has drop
ped out of prices
The shad catch just before Easter.
when the Gather was so warm. was
the biggest of the season, and while
boats are still bringing plenty of
shad to the markets the dealers are
already well stocked up with< large
supplies. and wholesale prices have
dropped to 10 cents and II cents a
pound for buck and IS cents to %
cents for roe shad. but the retail
prices have not been reduced in pro-
portion.
Reports from Crisfield, which is
the principal buying center on the
bay. are to the effect that boatloa d
after boatload, with an average catch
of $500 shad each. is arriving and they
have literally swamped the buyers.
The possibility that the present
cold spell will drive the fish back
looms up. but even at that the sup
ply in the markets is SO plentiful
that it will tide the dealers over
until warm weather again sets in and
the shad turn once more toward the
susquehanna river spawning grounds.

Some of the makers of women's

The wooden manufacturing com.
