NEW METHOD OF
TREATING OOO
: J j
■ C. L. Anderson, of the bureau of
fisheries, who is spending some time
here giving demonstrations of the
Scotch cure of Alaska herring, advises
that his work has been most encourag
ing, as he has succeeded in interest
ing many of the local fishermen In
the conservation of this food product.
There has been much inquiry regard
ing this new method, and those ma
terially interested in the now Industry
will a; predate the difference in the
treat sent of herring as taught by Mr.
|' Anderson.
Only the fresh liering are desirable
for cure. Ab socn as the fl»h Is re
ceived at the st-lhins it Is dumped
into a farland (n,box about tan feet
I'Tng and five feet wide and three feet
high, with open cracks in the sides
and bottom to facilitate the escape of
blood and other liquids), great care
being t iken that they receive a good
sprinkling of salt as they slide out
of the fish baskets.
(Jibbing is the next step. In tbl3
process the gills and gutbag are en
tirely removed, bat not the in tit or
roe.
As the herring are gibbed they are
dropped Into baskets placed conven
iently at the side of the gutter for I he
various sizes nnd selections, of which
there are usually four, viz:, '"large
fulls," "fulls,"’ "mat fulls", and "mat
ties." Toward thq end of the season
a separate selection Is made for
‘spents," or spawned herring, which
should never he mixed with tho re
gular (ure. Selecting or grading the
herring, according to their size is done
chiefly by touch and not by eye mean
urcmei.t.
Perhaps the most particular work
is “rot.sing." This Is where are en
ters into business and special skill Is
require I. First the gibbed or gutted
herring is dumped Into large tubs
sufficient, to pack a regular Scotch
barrel, where they receive a very
thorough sprinkling and mixing of
salt. This Is really the secret of
Scotch curing, and particular atten
tion must ho paid to it, bo that the
herring are ao woll covered on both
sides \ylth salt, that the skin of one
does not come into direct contact
with its neighbor when packed in the
barrel. Salt must not be Btlnted when
used for this purpose, ahd energy is
required, as thero Is a tendency to
spare the hands from the harsh salt.
Alaska herring sometimes eat quan
tities of what Is generally known as
"rod feed." This is a form of minute
se.i life, abundant in certain localities.
The herring when gorged with red
feed u.e unfit for cure. A haul found
to contain this feed naturally discour
ages the inexperienced packer, hut a
remedy for tho situation Is known. If
the net is allowed to remain for a time
in the water the fish finally disgorge
themselves, after which action they
are ready for cure.

ER9, July 20.—(By Mall)—‘Take ofr j?
the lid and allow the people back home %
what a fierce fight we're up against." f.
Thua a highly placed American na- :*
val officer, attached to the command :•
of the destroyer squadron, endeavored g
to say nomething about a grave aitua- :j
tion, without being able to nay any- !•
thing definite. The officers tell plenty ••
—In confidence. The correspondents j:
attached to the American, destroyers ■:
know that ships have been destroyed ■:
by the U-boats in far greater tonnage J
than at present they can be produced.
They know alao^omething of the me- !
thods by which our destroyers i»e :
fighting the unseen menace and of the >
handicaps which are hampering the :
fight—handicaps which give ti e Ger J
mans the advantage and which i{.e ■:
Americans back home could remove •:
in a few months. But the navel offi- •
cer couldnt tell what he know for :
publication. And the correspondents i
are on their honor to submit all their :
work to the censoreb'p
“It would help the enemy if we :
should tell our people all they ought .
to know,” the naval expert continued.
"A frank statement of the whole sub
marine situation, with its bearing cn <
the land campaigns, might be of con
siderable practical value to him. Per
haps it would also stimulate his sink- *
ing morale for a time — that depends *
on whether he is expecting a great i
deal or little from his submarine 4
fight. a 4
“But I seriously question whether 4
it would not eventually help us to win 4
this fight. If thp people could know. 4
they wouldn’t for a minute hold back <
the support we need.” *
Though the censorship, with it evil *
tendency to shut the people’s eyes to *
the peril, be maintained, the officer *
said outb need not become a losing *
fight. Under present conditions, he
advised the people back home can give
best aid by backing the war program 4
of the army and navy departments •
without question, however grotesque 4
they may seem. ^
"Just now there are a hundred ini
portant facts which would illuminate
the public mind," he concluded. “As *
long as civilians can’t know these *
things the best way they can do is to ♦
trust the departments that really do •
know, to make the right decisions." ^
