Fishing around Broome Island In
the Patuxent has dropped of to
catches of perch, eels and toadfish,
due no doubt to heavy rainfall, but
has been better down toward the
mouth OF the river. Eels and toad
fish have been all too plentiful at
many favorite fishing spots this
early season. Yet eels. while de-
spised by most anglers, are consid-
cred a great delicacy by many people
who prize them highly for their
food value. Commercially, in the
Chesapeake and its tributaries, they
rank high in quantity and value
among its fishes.
The eel is a true fish, its small
scales being imbedded in Shiny and
gelatinous skin. For many centuries
its habits were shrouded in mystery
and even today not too much is
known about them. However it has
been established that the American
eels as well as European eels spawn
somewhere to the southwest of Ber-
muda in what generally is known as
the "Sargasso Sea-" After the eggs
are laid and Matched at considerable
depths, the young, which are rib
bon-like and transparent, float for
a time. gradually approaching less
saline water, where they assume the
form of the adult eel. European eels
migrate to Europe's shores and
American eels to waters on our
continent. Only the females enter
fresh waters where they travel In
land for great distances, and remain
in fresh water from to IL years
until they become adults.
Upon reaching maturity, they
start their seaward migration, trav-
cling mostly during the late summer
and fall. What becomes of the eels
after they spawn still is moot
question, although 1t is believed they
die. American eels have been known
to attain q weight OF Is pounds, but

October S Indian
Summer Sets New
Weather Records
Only .29 Inches
Of Rain Recorded
For Entire Month

October was the month that broke
all sorts of records in Noble county,
according to Frank Burlingame of
Sharon, official weather man for
this community. --s
Noble county had only 20 hun
dredths of an inch of rainfall during
the entire month-a new low for
the period of IA years during which
time Burlingame has been in charge
of the weather station. The greatest
in "a hours occurred on the 28th,
when IL hundredths of an inch fell
However, Sunday night and Mon
day, the first two days of November,
over an inch of rain fell, Burlingame
pointed out.
In spite of the fact that the first
day of October ushered in the coun-
tvs first and only killing frost, the
remaining 80 days resulted in its be-
ing the hottest October on record
for many years.
There were fifteen days when the
thermometer stood at 80 degrees or
higher, three days when it was rs
degrees or higher and six days when
the mercury was between 20 and rs
degrees.
Highest temperature for the
month was 81 degrees, which oc-
Cured on the 23rd. The low was 80
degrees on October /, which brought
the first killing frost to this county.
To date, it has not again reached
this low reading.
October, 1947, had ten partly
cloudy days, three cloudy and Is
clear days. Another unusual factor
was the three consecutive absolute
ly cloudless days, which occurred on
the 81, % and %. Burlingame stated
that this was extremely unusual for
October. On these three days there
was not trace of a cloud of any
size
AS matter of comparison, the
dusty records of October, 1946, were
dragged out and Burlingame came
up with these facts:
October, 1916, Noble county had
3.42 inches of rainfall and a high
temperature of 81 degrees. The low
and killing temperature was % de-
grees, which occurred October 13,
1916. There were eight cloudy, five
partly cloudy and 18 clear days dur
ing this month. The general temper
ature reading for the month showed
an average of go degrees.
In concluding, Burlingame said
that Noble county has not had a
trace of frost since October l, l947.
