UNTAPPED RESOURCES, LITTLE FELLOW
The lowly ling, often called the lawyer fish a
“eel pout” but scientifically nominated the burbot
and which has been the object of; scorn of sea food
consumers, promises a remunerative field for iishei
men in Alaska. All sluggish streams and lakes abound
in this variety of fresh-water codfish.
In experiments made by the University of Wiscon
sin. employing burbot liver oil in the treatment of rick
ets’ disclosed that it was eight times more potent than
cod liver oil.
Mild cured after the manner of finnan haddie, the
flesh of the burbot cannot be distinquished from this
established table delicacy, and is often substituted for
and sold under the label of finnan haddie.
The principal source of supply of burbot is the
State of Wisconsin and the Great Lakes, of which 170
tons were taken from Lake Erie. The percentage of oil
secured from the liver has been found to vary from 36
to 56 per cent, and livers weighing 0.55 pound have been
common.
The burbot is a predatory fish, preying upon all
other varieties, principally salmon spawned in the
lakes. A three-pound burbot will swallow a fish from
four to eight inches in length.
A Nebraskan who has developed a chicken minus
wings and toenails claims that all fowl were once fish.
Hence we have the chicken following the sucker and
suckers chasing chickens.
France is planning one of the largest ship-building
plants in the world at St. Nazaire. France owes us a lot
of money and that’s why poor, old, decrepit Uncle Sam,
poverty-stricken and bow-legged with grief, can’t seem
to get a ship of his own.
Thru her alibi now being published Mrs. Wille
brandt is making a strong bid for the title of “Stormy
petreless.”
It doesn’t require any authority from the League
of Nations to enable a girl to effectively handle a man
date.
It looks as though the Red Menace and the T ellow
Peril may try to exterminate each other.
