and unexpected origin, says Nature
Magazine. An approved spelling Of
the name is "holibut," and the deriva-
tion Of the first portion Of the word
Is the English "holy." "Butte" was
the old English name Of the founder,
and the name ''holibut" or "hallbut"
was formed from "holy" and butte"
as indicating that this important food
fish was much used as an article Of
diet for "holy" days or "holIdays."
