MONEY COULD BE MADE
FISHING FOR SHARKS
National Bureau Says Tiger Of the
Sea Can Be Utilized at a
Profit.

Washington. Nov. 22.-Shark fish
ing can be made an important indus
try in this country in the opinion OF
officials of the Bureau OF Fisheries.
There are many uses to which vari-
GUS parts of the dreaded 'man,kill-
ers" can be put and at a profit to the
fishermen.
Former Secretary of Commerce
Redfe.d gave prominence during
the war days to shoes made OF shark
skin and 1t is stated that leather
from this skin is as good as that
from beef hides. Its use is confined
not alone to shoe manufacture, but
to the making OF other leather
goods.
Shark steaks also got some adver-
tisement during the war, but the
Fishers Bureau holds that the shark
flesh, dried or smoked. aso can
bring a good price per ton as fertili-

used commercially, while the body

Music In the Air.

Does anyone now possess musical
pigeons? Lady Dorothy Nevill In a
letter TO London newspaper tells how
many years ago she had sent to her
from China number of whistles made
out Of gourds, something like small
organ pipes. which could be attached
with great ease to a pigeons tail. The
effect produced by the flight OF these
birds with whistles attached was ex-
tremely pretty, resembling Aeolian
harps, the whistles all being Of a DIFF
ferent note People used to be consid-
erably astonlshed at such heavenly mu-
sic, and their bewllderment afforded
her great amusement, she says.
