fish. With fish, as with many other
foods, certain ideas, many of them
false, have gained circulation. One
is that fish and milk or any milk or
cream dishes, such as ice cream, or
milk as drink, should never be taken
with crabs, oysters or lobster. When
these combinations have been found
to disagree with person, such food
mixtures should be avoided, but there,
is no reason why the average person
may not combine the two, provided
the fish or lobster is not served with
an acid sauce.
In buying salmon the steaks are al.
ways rhe most expensive, though there
is almost no waste. The red or
Chinook salmon is considered best I;
then the pink and club salmon, all
good but varies as to favor as well
as price. The practical housewife will
use the cheaper grades for all made

which is now selling at high figure.
There should be no reason for the
absence of fish on our tables, even II
far inland, as canned fish are always
obtainable.
Next to salmon and tuna comes the
sardine in popularity. The sardine
is not found in American waters-that

Limerick.-The free state forces,
whicn captured Limerick last week,
outnumbered throughout the opera
tions. Seven hundred nationals were
engaged, while the irregular forces
reached at least 1000.
The battle zone involved the whole
center of the city, at points the COM
batans being less than 10 yards apart.
The fighting consisted mainly Of
rifle and bombing duels; each side
tunneled from house to house so that
entire streets were transformed into
miniature fortresses. The irregulars
occupied the strongest positions and
their defeat was due to the division of
their forces and the threatened encir-
clement of the irregulars, who were
obliged to evacuate In order to avoid
The cutting off of their retreate to the
south.
The republicans set fire to all the
barracks by exploding mines. The
new. barracks, a great block of build
ings erected around a square of about
200 yards, were leveled. Castle Bar
racks was destroyed with the excep-
ton of the thirteenth century tower of
King Johns Castle. One of the two
blocks comprising the ordnance bar

racks were also destroyed

food to 10000 people.
Nothing definite is known about the

tions in the early stages, returned
to Clonmel. The irregulars were well
armed and had an immense supply of
high explosives. They fled hastily at
the end, destroying roads and bridges.

production is soon resumed.
Unless the movement of coal
