yFish are Low Cost Food
High in Nutrition Value
By the Bureau of Home Economic!,
U, 8. Department or Agriculture.
In most localities, fish of tome
kind re likely to be relatively cheap
at any time ot year. This Is worth
remembering now, saya the Bureau
of Home Economics, because fish has
high food value and In some of the
best fishery products there Is com
paratively little waste. Zt pay- to
watch the market, then, for bargains
in fish as In other kinds of food.
For some kinds of fish, bargains
are a matter of locality and season.
The shad come up the Atlantic coast
al rivers In the spring, Atlantic sal
mon are caught In Mew England riv
ers In early spring and summer. At
that same time the boats and nets
are out for lake trout in the Oreat
Vtdkes, for mackerel along the middle
Atlantic coast, and for Pacific sal
mon on the West Coast. Spring and
summer are the seasons for sunflsh
and crapple In the Inland waters and
for squeteaugue or "sea trout" on the
Atlantto coast, but buffalo fish and
suckers In the middle west and
smelts In the northeastern lakes are
caught in Vie fall, winter and spring.
Some of the best bargains In fish
ery products, however, are all-year
fish from both fresh and salt water
that are shipped, fresh or fresh-frozen,
to different parts of the country.
In these days of quick freezing meth
ods and fast transportation, fresh
haddock and mackerel from the At
lantic ocean are sold In city markets
all across the continent. Fresh hali
but, salmon, fresh cod, and various
other fishes from the Atlantic and
Pacific are frozen and shipped to
many distant markets, while lake
herring and blue and yellow pike
from the Oreat Lakes, with carp and
catfish from the fresh water rivers
and lakes, may likewise be on the
market all the year many .hundreds of
miles from their native waters. And
frozen fish, It should be remembered,
l are fresh fish.
Fish prices vary with the locality
f and for various local reasons, but
fresh fillet of haddock, which is solid
lean meat, with no waste whatever,
Is likely to be a bargain In say mar
ket. In many places far from the
fishing grounds cod steak, halibut
and Boston mackerel are to be had
at surprisingly low prices, as are
fresh sea and river herring, croakers,
butterfish, "sea trout," and even
had in the height of the season.
Mullet from the Gulf of Mexico and
eastern Florida waters Is the fish 1
that has the largest market In the !
south.
Some of the cheapest and most
familiar fishery products, which are
also among the most nutritious, are
canned sardines from the coasts of
Maine and California, kippered her- !
ring, canned "pink" salmon, salt cod,
cod flakes and canned herring roe. ,
Pickled herring (in brine) and
Scotch cured herring are other fa
vorites with many. The popularity
of these products Is so great that for
quantity of catch the pilchard, or
California sardine fishery, ranks first
In the United States, with Pacific
salmon second, sea herring third, and
cod In the seventh place. The prices
of these canned and cured fishery :
products in most markets run lower, ,
oftentimes, than the fresh fish.
Like other animal foods, fish flesh
is rich in protein. It Is rich also In
minerals, especially in phosphorus, i
Salt water fish and shellfish are rich
In iodine which is another substance
required by the human body, and
this Iodine content becomes important
In the "goiter belt," where the soil, i
and consequently the drinking water
and the vegetables grown In that soil, '
are poor in Iodine.
According to nutritionists of the ;
U. S. Bureau of Fisheries, some kinds
of fish, notably cod, salmon, haddock, '
and sea herring, have been found to ;
be good sources of vitamins A and D. j
The full vitamin value of canned
salmon will be retained and the sal- j
mon flavor will be increased if the
oil In the can Is used in sauce 'for
creamed or scalloped salmon, or In
( salad dressing. Canned salmon is one
or the foods which the U. 8. Public
Health Service has found will pre- !
vent pellagra, a disease which Is i
caused by a deficiency In the diet.

CHURCHMAN SAYS-
SOLO ON REPEAL
Dr. Pollng's resignation was an
nounced at a luncheon In his honor.
It is effective June 6 and It came as
no surprise, since he had set June
5, 1932, as a retirement date when
he became chairman In May, 1931.
He said his regular activities had
been neglected.
"Any plank dealing with the 16th
amendment, which does not first de
clare for the enforcement of law and
for loyalty to the constitution would
be entirely inadequate," he said.
NEW YORK, June 3. (AP) In a ,
statement Issued Just prior to an
nouncement of his resignation as
chairman of the Allied Forces for
Prohibition. Dr. Daniel A. Poling pre
dicted today the Republican party
would go farther this year In a plank
for solution of Vie wet and dry prob
lem than It did In 1928.
He thought the Republican party
"too political minded" to adopt any ;
plank calling for submission of a '
proposition for repeal, but he said 1
he would be glad to see a test based !
on the Rank ob plan, for he believed
It could be easily defeated by the dry ,
forces.
