The process of preparing sardines Is
very simple but requires experience
ami great care. I'pon the arrival of
the sardines at the factory they nre
liun.i dlaiely placed on huge wooden
tables about forty feet long, where
they are cleaned. This process takes
only a seeinid, and a fairly i fficieiit
worker cun clean from 300 to -pH)
pounds of fish per liny, according to
a writer in Fishing Gazette.
The fish are then placed In vats of
brine, where they are allowed to re
main from one-half to two hours, ac
cording to size. They are then placed
In »Ire trays equipped with prongs In
upright position, where they are al
lowed to dry for about an hour before
they are ready fol' cooking. This Is
done by placing the trays in large steam
ovens, where the fish are subjected to
a pressure of about two pounds of
Stenin, twenty minutes being consumed
In properly cooking the small fish nnd
as much as thirty-five minutes in cook
ing the larger sizes.
Tills cooking has to be carefully
watched; if the sardines are subjected
to too inueli steam they become some
what brittle and break when being
packed. Some sardines are cooked In
oil; however, an extra charge is made
for this process, and comparatively
few are sold.
After the sardines have been prop
erly steamed the trays are placed on
long counters for sorting, which is
done by carefully selected and well-
paid girls. After sorting, the tins are
filled with oil anil placed on shelves,
where they are allowed to remain lor
about twelve hours In order to insure
the proper Impregnation of the oil.
Pure olive oil Is used In preparing
nio.rt snrdines, especially the
grades, but for some markets a
ture of olive oil mid high-grade
nut oil Is desired.

Nations With High Degree of Cultiva
tion That Are Now Only Memory
in History’s Pages.
Thousands of years ago—long before
the grent western nations ot' today,
long before even Greek and Roman
were heard of—there were more or
less advanced civilizations on both
sides of the Pacific. China, fur exnm-
pie, had grown Into a stable Mon, >1-
Ian kingdom perhaps 4,000 years be
fore the beginning of our era.
A
Chinese author writes: “There is no
existing nation in the world that lias
ti larger past than Chinn. She has
seen the rise and fall of the ancient
Egyptian dynasties; the extension of
the Persian empire; the conquests of
Alexander; the Irresistible advance of
(lie Roman legions; the deluge of the
Teutonic hordes from the north, nnd
the birth of nil the nations of modern
Europe.”
The Japanese also, n people com
pounded of various elements, but
chiefly Mongolian and Miiliiynn. st.aid
stood nt the beginning of our era on
ti high plane of civilization, and even
then exhibited the tendencies mid tin
ndnptlveness which distinguish then
today.
Then nwny to the east |n Central
nnd
South
America,
civilizations
waxed and waned, reaching their high
est development In the Azlee and In
can empires, the latter of which was
an extremely Interesting example of
despotic socialism.
