Bay Shad Would Mean Big Loss to
Reputation of State and Fishermen
Great interest is being manifested
locally in the conference to be held
in Washington on Friday by represen-
tatives of the eastern coastal states
on fish conservation and propagation.
Recently Secretary Herbert Hoover of
the Department of Commerce, issued
call for this meeting and invited the
governors of the several eastern
states to send representatives to the
meeting to consider the fish conserva-
ton question along the Atlantic and
Gulf states. In his invitation, Secre-
tary Hoover pointed out that the shad
catches along the Atlantic Coast have
decreased during the past few years
by 37,00O,O0O pounds or approximate
ly rs per cent. Sturgeon catches have
decreased 28,000,000 pounds or SO per
cent. Lobster catches have decreased
20,000,000 pounds or about 66 per
cent. From the above figures which
were published by the Department of
Fisheries, it is seen that unless effic-
lent propagation work is soon started
by either the Federal Government OF
by the states working in conjunction
with each other, that the fishing in
dustry in the Delaware River and Bay
is doomed to extinction within a short
time. While the fish have been de-
creasing, the cost of the fish to the
consumer has been increasing so that
at this time the price of shad has in
creased five fold, the cost of sturgeon
eight fold, and the price of lobster
nine fold.

Clip This Formula

The formula for the larvacide is as
follows:
Add one pound and three ounces of
rosin, fish oil and soap to one gallon
of water and heat until the soap is
dissolved.
After the solution has cooled, place
it in a churn or ice cream freezer and
add three gallons of carbon-dislphide.
Stir until the ingredients emulsify
and when the emulsion is white in
color and has the consistency of thick
cream it should mix readily with
water. This makes a concentrated so
luton. 1t should be applied to the
greens Of golf links, lawns and mead
ows by means of a sprinkler. EXper-
iments made with this larvacide SO
far have proved that its proper appli-
cation results in a 80 per cent. NOR
tality rate of the "grubs,' according
| to Dr.. HOrnig.

Fishermen Are Very Much Intereste,

The Delaware City fishermen had
an impromptu meeting Wednesday
night relative to the matter and it
was the consensus of opinion that
some one from that section of the
country familiar with conditions in
the fishing industry of the Delaware
River should attend the conference,
and steps were taken to have one to
90 to Washington on Friday and at
tend the conference who could explain
conditions in the industry as affect
ing the Delaware River. Professor
Nicholas Borodin, who is a represen-
tative of the Fisheries Department of
the Federal Government, and who has
been detailed to Delaware City by
| Secretary Hoover to assist Delaware
City fishermen in the preparation of
sturgeon roe for the market, is an eX-
pert on fish propagation, having beer
in that line of work on Russia fOl
many years before coming to this
country. While in Russia, Professor
Borodin was connected with the facul
ty of an agricultural college, anC
specialized in fish propagation work.

SWEET CIDER MAKES
DELICIOUS BEVERAGE

We are losing the tradition of the
autumn cider keg, because few fam
lilies will bother with a drink thar
turns so quickly to vinegar. However,
sweet cider is a wholesome drink both
for old and young, is preferable to
over sweet soda fountain mixtures,
and is'an excellent refreshment at
parties. 1t is also useful if kept ON
hand to be used in cooking as a pro-
hibition substitute in recipes calling
for brandy or wine. For all these
purposes, il may be purchased In cans
ana opened. as needed In this way
it is always possible to have cider
properly chilled. and have it sweet.

II there is one day in the year
sacred TO old customs and traditions,
it is Thanksgiving Day. During the
rest of the year we may strive to
cultivate the new and unusual but on
THANKSGIVING Day we usually return
TO those things that are tried, true
and 10 memory dear. Not the least
of these is the gathering OF ones fam
ily and the oid-fashioned meal. Even
among the younger generation there
is an eagerness 10 carry on this truly
American festival. and IT is to aid
the young. undaunted housewife. who
is about to establish this custom IN
Der own home that these dinners and
hints for their preparation are sug-
gested.
OBSERVE PRECEDENT.
Contrary 10 general understanding,
the first Thanksgiving was purely one
OF rejoicing and recreation and with
ont any special religious ceremony.
The religious observance evolved
years later, making the purpose 81
this day comnemoration OF the Ell
forts and sacrifices made by our fore
fathers. For this reason no attempt
Of elaboration in the preparation OF
the food or table decoration should
BE- made on this occasion-it should
adhere strictly 70 the simplicity OF the
ancestral feast. While it may seem
to many that it was not a simple
feast because Of th. turkeys, geese,
ducks. venison, pork. numerous vese-
tables and fruits which appeared on
that festal board 1t must be remem-
bered that fifty-five English spanking
people and about ninety Indians sat
down TO the first feast.
The men procured whatever food
they could get and all the women par
ticipated in its preparation. and il is
probable that il was considered an
easy and enjoyable task by them. To
the modern housewife it seems like
hard work when she considers the
ease with which she obtains her sup
plns. the convenience of her gas range,

ant governor amendment received 49,
572 votes in its favor and 45,2O6
against it, and therefore would be
adopted if the new rule extends back
as far as 1914.
Mr.. Campbell takes the position that
the new rule does not extend back to
amendments submitted and voted on
prior to the amended initiative and
referendum of 1920, and that in all
probability the court would not hold
the lieutenant governor amendment
adopted. He said that he does not Op-
pose the idea of electing a lieutenant
governor or for creating test case to
determine the law on the subject, but
that from a legal standpoint he doubts
if it would be wise to nominate and
elect a lieutenant governor in order
to test the law.
The probability that the Republic
ans will sieze the opportunity to take
IA. "long shot on having a Republican
lieutenant governor, if the Democrats
do not nominate a candidate for the
office, will result in the General Com
mittee giving serious consideration to
the question, it is believed. If the
DEMOCRATS fail to include the Office on
the primary ticket, it would leave the
field open to the Republicans who nom
mate in convention after the Demo
cratic primary is held. Even remote
possibility Of the Republicans slip
ping in a lieutenant governor is so
unpleasant to Democratic leaders that
it is believed they will take no chance
on such an eventuality and that the
1926 Democratic primary will see
several candidates in the field for
