Handle With Care; Soft Shell Crabs Hard At Work Pulling a leg is no joking m atter when it com es to dealing with a D ungeness crab. This popular sport and com m ercial crab m oves into shallow w ater each year to recover from the process of shedding its old shell. During this tim e the crabs have a very soft shell and are vul nerable to m ishandling and rough raking by crabbers Soft-shelled crab s are also rather poor in m eat quality. The m eat is gelatinous, w atery and does not fill the new shell. A hard-shelled crab w ill yield 25-30 percent m eat w hile a soft-shelled crab will yield only 10-15 p er cent. It is therefore naturally d esirable to w aylay the hard crab s w hile leavin g the soft crabs to m ature for greater m eat quantity and quality. The F ish C om m ission of O re gon requires no licen se to take D ungeness crab for personal use. A little ca re is required, how ever, so that all soft, under sized, or fem a le crabs are returned to the w ater without injury T w elve m ale crabs m ay be taken per day per person with no m ore than 24 taken in 7 con secu tive d ays. The crabs m ust be at least 5I * 34 inches across and w idest part of the back, ex clu siv e of spines. Soft and hard-shelled crabs are g en erally found in the sam e a reas so a good rule of thumb for this tim e of the season is to handle the crabs gently and rake slow ly in order to m inim ize injuries To d eterm ine shell texture, pick the crab up gingerly from center rear to avoid its powerful pincers Sim ply pinch the large section of a rear leg A hard crab ’s leg is easily flattened. For a D ungeness crab a good leg pulling is indeed no joking m atter The F ish C om m ission of Oregon rem inds you to pinch that leg but go easy on our friends who have it soft! N early three trillion barrels of oil lie beneath the sea s, say geologists, who point out that this am ounts to nearly three tim es as m uch a s has been d is covered throughout the world.

Hfc Crown Z ellerbach has report ed that sa les and earnings in the second quarter and first six m onths of 1974 set new records Second quarter sa les of $430,- 151,000 w ere 20 percent ahead of the com parable 1973 period, w hile net incom e of 332,622,000 represented m ore than a 10 p er cen t im provem ent. Earnings per share w ere 31 32, com pared with 31 20, restated to reflect a c quisitions For the six m onths, sa les were 3818,299,000, 17 percent ahead of the prior year. N et incom e w as 359,877.000. or 32 43 a sh are, a 10 percent im provem ent over last y e a r ’s 354,549,000, or 32.21. P resident C.R Dahl said that the earnings im provem ents w ere achieved despite a soften ing in w orldwide dem and for wood products, which ad versely affected earnings contributions from both d om estic and in ternational operations. He noted that the com pany's earnings have im proved on a quarter-to- quarter com parision b asis for nine con secu tive quarters but added that costs have been in creasin g at a greater rate than price in creases. Mr. Dahl said the outlook is for continuing strong m arket d e m and in the com p an y’s paper, packaging and w holesale d is tribution b u sin esses. “T im ber and wood products rem ain at a reasonably good level, although below the record prices reached in the first half of last y e a r ,” he added. Mr. Dahl said the com pany ex p ects that low er earnings con tributions from tim ber and wood products w ill continue to be m ore than offset by im prove m ents in other m ajor a reas of the business. On that basis, 1974 resu lts should ex ceed the record set last year. The avera g e bad check taken in at a superm arket is for 327.17, . according to the Super Market Institute.
