Since fish are abundant in both
fresh and salt water, they have
from the earliest times been
favorite food. Indeed, fish often
furnishes the staple food of a
large class of people. Many par
tally civilized tribes and the in
habitants of distant islands have
learned the value of fish as a
cheap and wholesome source Of
nutriment. Fish, in fact, takes
the place of meat to such an
extent that in many countries it
is used to the entire exclusion of
other protein foods.
Fish have not been used in this
country to the extent that they
have in some of the others. al
though it is predicted by food ex-
perts that as time goes on their
use will be much extended.
Marine fish have at least one
advantage over meat in that they
contain iodine, q necessary part
of our food, and the lack of which
has been shown to result in GER
tain forms of goiter.
Oysters are classified under fish,
and although they are composed
chiefly of water. their food value
is not to be despised, especially
since they contain valuable min
eral salts, including iodine.

Medics Merge

Since 1914 the number OF manu-
facturers of patent medicines and
compounds in the United States
has dropped from 2.9OS to 1,27s,
according to Federal statistics pub
lished by the American Druggist.
But that's not because we are
using fewer patent medicines. The
annual value of the manufac-
turers' products has more than
doubled since 1914. The ex-plana-
ton is that mergers and other
steps have eliminated more than
half of the patent medicine max
ers, leaving the manufacturing
business in the hands of fewer
but stronger companies.
