Herring Packers Warned
A gainst Poor Cooperage
(By Aug. H. D. Klie, Herring Expert
formerly with the United States Bu
reau of F:sheries.)
Packers of Scotch cure herring in
Alaska will make a very serious mis
take if. as has been reported, they at
tempt to cut down operating expens
es this coming season by using infer
ior containers. This coming year pack
ers will have to sell their fish on
their merits, since large lots of Scotch
and other foreign cures will 'again
find their way into the market. Cer
tain defects, especially in the curing,
were overlooked last season on ac
count (j? the very heavy demand for
the Alaska Scotch cure: but, unless
the packers are far more careful than
last season, they will have consider
able difficulty in selling their fish on
account of the fact that the inspec
tion will be much more severe than
heretofore.
With the Norwegian and other hard
cuies. the fish are so heavily salted
that a dry or leaky barrel does not
have a disastrous eflfect on the cure;
^but with the Scotch cure there should
be no loose or free salt after the
twelfth or fourteenth day of cure, so
that it is absolutely necessary that
the bairsl be of high grade to hold
the pickle, which is really the life of
the Scotch cure herring. Dry or leaky
barrels are often the cause elf tainted
or rusty herring, for which there is no
sale. Thinner staves than those adopt
ed by the Bureau of Fisheries for the
• Scotch barrel are a decided disadvant
age. First of all, the fish are cured
much lighter than in any other method
of packing herring and therefore re-!
duire more protection from heat, which !
n hicker stave aij/ords and, second-j
!v. the journey from the curing sta
tion to the regular herring centers
is almost twice as far as from Scot
land to New Vork, making it essen
tial that only the best graces of
wood and workmanship be used. Thei
barrels are not only handled very

much oftener during the trip from
Alaska to New York than the import
ed product but the handling is very
much rougher as well.
Last season some barrels were
made to .imitate the standard barrel
adopted by the United States Bureau
of Fisheries. The standard barrel was
set up originally by the Western Co
operage Company, under instructions
of the special representative on Scotch
cure of the United States Bureau df
Fisheries. The barrels made in imi
tation of the standard barrel were by
far too frail; the iron or steel hoops
were not alone too narrow but also
too tight. The Eastern trade knows
the difference between the various
kinds of barrels used- ' in the various
countries; and, often when buying
fish that are of equal quality, selects
the parcel that is packed in the best
cooperage. One lot packed in Alaska
last year did not pass inspection in
Seattle as to selection, cure «(f fish,
etc., but found a buyer at a slightly
reduced price because of being packed
in the standard Scotch-style barrels—
something the trade demanded in the
East. ' ; -
Repairing and recoopering barrels
that are leaky or otherwise defective
are big problems in New York—es
pecially drring hot weather, and with
coopers or repairmen.almost unobtain
able. What one imagines is saved by
buying a cheaper barrel of inferior
grade is more than offset by heavy
cooperage charge when the fish ar
rive in Seattle, where they must again
be overhauled before allowing them to
be shipped East. This is a big fac
tor, not alone on account o<f the addi
tional recooperage charges but the de
Hy caused anf< the aUditional risk
Involved by keeping the fish exposed
fo the warm weather. In Scotland
most of the barrel-makers burn their
names in the bottom of the barrel,
and buyers of herring, as well as reg
ular inspectors, often look for the name
of the barrel manufacturer, especial
ly when herring are intended for cold
stooge for use, say, six months1 later.
Certain buyers will not contract for
any herring this season unless the
fish are packed in the Standard
Scotch-style barrel. With the adop
tion of the proposed herring inspect

tion system, empty barrels will alto

in Scotland.
Attention la Again directed to the ;
fact that this season the trade will be
much more crltloal with the eufeti
product and paokers will surely have
gtined1 valuable Information from
their mistakes- of last year, to that
the trade looks forward to a better
cure in general. Scotch cure packed
in domestic ZOO-pound barrels or In
ferior Scotch-style barrels will not
find a prompt tale. If cure and quality
are alike, the packer having the beet
cooperage wil] be the first to tell. Im
proper cooperage and fish packed In
other than standard barrels are Just
causes for rejection. However, -«
properly made barrel is a big time
saver when closing a barrel after
fish are packed, besides saving time
and trouble 'in setting up knocked
down barrels.

SPECTACLES INDICATED RICHES
Spectacles were invented in Italy
about 1285. They were at first very
expensive, and so were worn only by
wealthy persons or nobldtnen, and so
came to be regarded as a mark of
rank. The larger the spectacles the
higher the rank, and so the glasses
grew to prodigious size. There are
two or three busts extant of Italian
gentlemen wearing “spects,” and In
one of these cases the lenses are
threef inches in diameter.
