PORTLAND, Me., Jan., 17, (fl3)—
Wholesalefish concerns here com
plain that some scallop fishermen
have emulated the methods of get
ric-quick financiers.
They assert they have been buy
ing “watered stock.” Some of the
Casco Bay small boatmen, who
are dragging giant scallops this
winter, the buyers aver, shuck out
the meat and soak it overnight in
fresh water.
This, it is said, causes the scal
lops to swell appreciably and take
on much weight. Twenty pounds
in their natural state grow to 25
pounds after 12 hours of soaking.
It is hard to detect such doctoring
by appearance although the “fresh
water cure” is said to detract
considerably from the fine flavor
of the scallop.
With the sun remaining longer
each day, beautiful sunrises, and
days, it wont be long now.
