SHAD SEASON CLOSED.

Bayslde. y. J., June 12-The shad
fishing season officially has just ended
In the Delaware Bay and river under
concurrent laws OF New Jersey, Della
ware and Pennsylvania. Most of tho
fishing crews hung up their nets early
in the week, because heavy rains
had made the water so muddy that
scarcely any fish were caught.
The season as n whole has been n
little better than last year. both in
prices and IN catches. although fewer
boats than usual fished this season.
Some Of the old fishermen estimate
that the total catch OF shad In the
Delaware for the season has been
around $4,000. AS many were caught
in single week when the industry
was normal more than n decade ago.
