Big Business in Goldfish
BY Stanley Baitz

looking colored bits of cloth
strung at intervals on wire a
foot above the surface. These
are to frighten off the hawks.
Mr.. Tresselt says he grows
about one-and-a-half-million
goldfish a year, plus large
mouth bass and blue-gill SUM-
fish, which he sells to sports
men for stocking game pre-
serves. He grows five varieties
of goldfish: Ordinary goldfish
and the fancy comets, fantails,
black moors and calicos, or
shubunkens.
Biggest customers are the
5-and-10-cent stores, which
also purchase snails for fish
bowl atmosphere. Mr.. Tres
self says he grows and sells a
quarter million snails a year.
May and early June is when
things really hum around a
goldfish pond, for that Is
spawning time and the grow
ers are kept busy laying down
beds of Spanish moss on which
the eggs can be deposited,
moving the free-swimming
young to other ponds and
generally looking after their
young charges. Proper feeding
and care are main determi-
nants in the prospering Of fish.
Mr.. Tresselt feeds his fish
on steamed egg-yolk and
ground grain to supplement
the natural foods in their
ponds.
Each grower has his own
tricks which, naturally, he
hugs unto himself as II they
were state secrets. Mr.. Tres
self has been inordinately
successful in growing a lot of
fish in a relatively small acre
age and the fact that he Is a
college-trained biologist may
have something to do with it.
A graduate of Cornell Univer-
sity, he was a biologist for the
State of New Jersey when he
decided to go into the fish
growing business. In 1923, he
came to Frederick County,

THE finny fellow swimming
IL around in. your goldfish
bowl may be pretty and puny,
but to a few men in North
western Maryland he's big
business.
In Frederick County, about
As miles from Washington, is
concentrated an unusual en-
terprise-the breeding of gold
fish. In this area alone an
estimated 10 to Is million gold
fish are produced annually by
about seven growers.
It Is, says one of the growers,
Frederick Tresselt Of Catoctin
Furnace, "the riskiest business
in the world. Anything can
happen to goldfish-and usu-
ally does"
Among the things that arise
to smite a crop Of fish are
insect enemies, minute organ
isms and oxygen shortages.
Then there are snakes that
eat eggs and baby fish and
hawks that come down and
seize the bigger fish.
Furthermore, 1t Is messy sort
OF work that entails much
tramping around with boots
in water and mud.
Why, then, do goldfish
growers stay. in business?
Mainly because 1t is lucrative.
The fish are sold according
to size, from an inch-and-a-
half up. The brood fish are
huge and when an osprey
(fish hawk swoops down and
makes off with a breeder, Mr..
Tresselt grimly mutters, There
goes 81 so worth of fish"
Mr.. Tresselt rears his fish In
a series of ponds adjoining
one another over his 26 acres.
The different ponds are for
various types of fish and for
various sizes. After the breed
ers have laid their eggs, which
take about a week to hatch,
the little ones are deposited in
another pond so they won't be
eaten by the brood fish.
Across the ponds are odd

which was then teeming with
fish growers, acquired some
land with necessary water and
dug ponds.
"At that time, you could sell
all the fish you could grow"
he says.
When the depression hit,
one of the things to suffer
most was the luxury goldfish
market. Many of the growers
in Frederick County gave up.
Mr.. Tresselt was hard hit but
weathered the blow by con-
centrating on game fish. In
the early '20s, he says, there
were about IS growers in the
county and they produced
about rs per cent of all the
goldfish sold in the United
States. Now the remaining
producers account for about a
third of the goldfish in the
country. for the industry has
spread across the country,
oddly enough in the same
climatic belt. Experts say
that If goldfish are reared in
too hot a climate, they acquire
too many funguseS and dis
eases; in too cold, they don't
grow.
How goldfish raising came
to upper Maryland is an
oddity that bears relating.
The story goes that during an
economic slump late in the
last century, the Government
encouraged people to grow
carp for food. A lot of farm
ers in Frederick County dug
ponds and put in carp. but
the fish didn't 60 over at all,
so the farmers gave up. In
one pond, however, the grower
noticed a reddish fish which
wasn't a carp and was sort
of attractive. Pretty soon,
there were more reddish fish
and he began selling them.
Before long, other farmers
began to stock goldfish and
the fish flourished In this
area. The business has per-
sisted since.

They record, by their inevitable
unevenness, the growth and devel-

Frisch was just coming into his
own as a Zionist leader of ma

ing his bearings as a Protector of

; In still another comment Paul

was a close associate of MIR.
Frisch. points out that the late
President of the ZOA was pos
sessed of a far-reaching imagin-
alton and a colorful personality
which impressed itself upon all
who came in contact with him.
These qualities are reflected in
the pages of this book. It is not

Murray Summarizes Need for

Three paragraphs from Sen. Muir

and the necessity for complete utili-
cation of the tremendous power po-
tential of Montana. Here they are:
Heretofore the farmers of Mon
tana have been compelled to pay high
rates for electric power. Transmits
sion lines did not reach some parts
of Montana, and as a result it wa
necessary for the REA to undertake
a program of making power available
to the farmers. AS a result of the
building of the Hungry Horse Dam,

"Low-income and middle-income
family heads will pay 20% more each
under the bill, whereas the rise for
corporations and even for wealthy
individuals is almost infinitesimal.

enough to condemn it. A volume of
protest sufficient to force a re-writ

Wall St. Journal JoyfulIy Calls 1t
SOAK Thu POOR" TAXATION PROPOSAL

WASHINGTON-"The American
people should rise in indignation" at
the tax bill now before the Senate,
James G. Patton, president of the
National Farmers Union, said in a
statement issued here. Patton called
for rewriting of the bill on the Sen
ate floor so that it does not collect
most of the new taxes from low-and
middle-income groups.
The text of Patton's statement
was as follows:
"The American people should rise
in Indignation at the iniquitous tax
bill approved by the Senate Finance
Committee and now before the SEN
ate for action.
SIN the face of the fact that most
corporation profits have been run
ming at record all-time highs, the
members of the Finance Committee
have had the audacity to write bill
described poyfully by the Wall
Street Journal as a 'soak-the-poor'
tax bill.

to collect more than So billions

But, this final success, this final

Consistency, Not a Virtue Of MPS Head,
Typo Conference Secretary Concludes
By STANLEY E. THURSTON,

By STANLEY b. THURSTON,
Sec, Mont. Typographical Conference
August % the Executive Director
of the Montana Physicians Service
blue Shield-Blue Cross issued a
printed statement to all MPS en-
ployees concerning the MPS stand on
the operation of its print shop. The
Executive Director explains the rea-
son for this statement by telling the
MPS employees eve do want you to
know the facts -. in their true
light" Also included with this in
formative piece of literature is a
copy of letter (most of which | am
answering below which the MPS Ex-
ecutive Director wrote to the Secre
tary of the Brotherhood of Carpen-
tiers and Joiners of America, Mis-
soula Local No. %, who had inquired
previously the MPS position on this
print shop.
Such considered statement by the
MPS Executive Director should not
be solely for MPS employees informa-
ton. This worthy expose should be
made public so that the people of
Montana can see what the "self-serv-
ing interest on the part of some few
individuals" means to labor and the
public in general.
Following are the pertinent points
of the MPS Executive Directors
statement to MPS employees and in
bold print are statements he has made
previously either by letter or orally
to myself and members of Helena
Typographical Union and the Helena
Allied Printing Trades Council:
For some years past, Blue Gross
and Blue Shield printing has been
done in local commercial printing es-
adjustments which employed union
labor. No work has ever been given |
to any organization which did not en-
ploy union labor"
OF course, the fact that the above !
mentioned statement and copied let
ter to MPS employees was not printed
in union shop but in the MPS print
shop" which is operated by non-un-
ion help, is supposed to be overlooked.
Also their new Do-oS SODu pfenen-
sive Agreements which were, printed
in their print shop" and heretofore
printed in "fair" commercial printing
plants is not supposed to be consid-
cred as being ''given to any organiza
ton which did not employ union lab
or" Nor are we to mention the un-
ion labels marked off some of their
printing when done in union shops
in the past.
"This cost of printing, as you prob
ably know, runs into considerable
sums of money over the period of a
year. The cost has risen to the point !
that it threatened to interfere with ,
our primary aim, which is to provide
