FUR-BEARING FISH

LISHED IN WILLIAMSPORT
NEWSPAPER
Peculiar Member Of Finny Tribe Is Said
to Live in Iceberg Lake, Glacier Park;
Beazei, Found Only on Prince Edward
Island, Is Bait Anglers Must Use

A recent issue Of the Pennsylvania
Crit" which . week carries q page
devoted to freak discoveries, contains \
picture OF Jim Hicken's famous fur
bearing Ash. Accompanying the pic
ture was the following story:
The discovery Of q f~urbearing fish has
been made In Glacier national park at
Iceberg lake, near Whitehall, Mont. The
water n this lake Is so cold that nature
has provided these fish with q coat of
fur. The beazel, found only on Prince
Edwards island. is said to be the only
bait that these fish will bite on except
In extreme warm weather when they will
bite on ice worms. Another peculiarly
OF this fish Is that with a portable phono-
graph they Will come to the surfaces Of
the water when Jazz music is played and
can be picked out OF the water. These
fish make a fight In getting them out Of
the water when hooked, due to the fact
hat nature has provided them with a
heavy coat Of fur which ruff1es and causes
such a resistance hat 1t is found a hard
matter to land them.
The change OF the temperature from
this water to the atmosphere is SO great
that the fish explodes on being taken
from the water, the fur and skin coming
In n piece, making 1t available for
tanning and commercial purposes, and
leaving the body Of the fish ready for eat
ing. The fur used as a ~neckpiece Is said
to nave medical properties that are cura-
tive In goiter and tonsilitis. The fish
presents a pretty appearance with its
heavy fur, quite In contrast to the or
binary type.

explained.
The railroad will make a special appeal
during the harvest season to shippers and
receivers, asking their cooperation in

the course Of grain movements. BY the
prompt movement OF all classes Of equip
ment during the heavy season expected
this fall, a great many car days will be
saved, Wnlcn Will mean Lne same as haV-

says.
The company is building some new

service, in ample numbers for that work.
These cars are combined steel and wood

type. Their use will release box cars from
that service n will aid materially in
meeting the grain situation.
The Northern Pacific railway is spend

The grain crop to be moved is the heavi-
