among the strange and rare varieties
of the finny tribe that inhabit Phil

Herre, fish expert of the Philippine
bureau of science, before the Ameri

What is considered by scientists the
most unique fish in existence is the
so-called shrimp fish found in Philip-
four or five feet long. In this con

that only three years ago the life his

southern islands. Very few people
know that most of the world's com

discovered that the liver of the Philip
pine shark will yield a substance us

cure, insulin.
Carry Electric Shock. '
Roy fish that give an electric
shock are common in Philippine
shrimp fish. At the end of the second
year the young- eels reach the Medi
terranean and at the end of another
year proceed up the European rivers.
A similar process takes place with
Philippine eels, though tnelr breeding
ground has not as yet been located.
A certain fish found in the islands
looks for all the world like a rock.
Should a human being step on it, it
squirts a deadly poison from its shell.
Another fish lives along the ednes of
rivers and never goes into the water,

have been drawn and the North
Butte mine, one of the famous copper
properties of the Butte district is be
ing permitted to flood with water up
to the 2,800 foot level, from which
point there is drainage to an adjoin
ing mine. Depletion of a considerubli
portion of the ore reserves and the
present discouraging condition of the
metal market are given as the reason
for the abandonment.
The North Butte mine has been the
scene of. two disastrous accidents,
the most recent of which, in June
PJ17, cost 163 lives. Tho other, in 11114
resulted in more than a score of fa
talities. It was In the North Butte in 1017
than Manus Duggan contrived the
plan of Improvising a bulkhead during
the fire. His cool-headedness at that
time is said to have saved the lives
of more than twenty miners whom he
led to an old drift where they took re-l
fuge from the deadly gases behind!
a bulkhead built of boards and cloth- j
ing. Duggan lost his life attempting!
to rescue a miner after the bulkhead
had been torn down and the refugees
were fighting their way to clear airl
after forty-eight horn's imprisonment.
Since this fire the improvised bulk
head has bt en resorted to frequently
by trapped miners in various disasters
ami on several occasions has resulted
in the saving of lives. In the Argon
aut mine fire in California a year ago
the plan was followed, without suc
cess. It's use then was said to have
been suggested by a man who was
with Duggan and his comrades in
1917.
The North Butte lias produced
millions of dollars worth of ore and
was said to have been one of the
most up-to-date properties of its
kind in the world. Ventilation experi
ments were carried on continually
and the canvas air-pipe ventilation
svstetn developed to a Iiiuh decree. It
was equipped with various safety de

100 in the Shade
or 10 below Zero!
One hundred degrees in the shade or ten
below zero, meat deliveries to your retailer
go steadily on, so that you may be assured
of just the kind and quality of meat that
you desire.
No city is so far removed from live stock
production that it cannot receive its regular
supply of fresh meats.
Compare this with the meat supply of
thirty or forty years ago. Summer weather
then meant salt or pickled meats in the
country, and a limited variety of fresh meats
in most cities.
Refrigeration, developed by scientists,
has made it possible for Swift & Company,
and other packers, to prepare fresh meats
and ship them long distances in refrigerator
cars, so that today, without regard to heat
or cold, meat reaches your dealer fresh,
clean, and wholesome.
In addition to the fresh meats thus avail
able, Swift & Company prepares a variety
of tempting meats for hot weather:
Swift's Premium Cooked Ham, mild and
sweet, smoked over hard wood fires, is
always delicious.
Swift's Premium Frankfurts, from our mod
ern sanitary kitchens, offer a choice blending
of meats and spices.
Swift's Sausage Specialties and Swift's Dry
Sausage, ready to serve, help lighten the
housewife's summer task.
In addition to these, a score of other
Summer Specialties are made available by
Swift & Company's research and develop
ment work.
Our profit from all sources avarsges
only a fraction of a unt a pound.
