FISH FLOUR DEVELOPED
WITH RICH FOOD 1UE
Commercial development of a
new food, fish flour, containing a
high ratio of elements vital to life,
which will at the same time add
materially to the value of the
fishing industry, is possible as a
result of experiments conducted
by the Bureau of Fisheries, De
partment of Commerce, the Bu
reau announced in the United
States Daily.
The statement of the Bureau
follows in full text:
Possibility of adding from $500,
000 to $1,500,000 annually in value
to the fisheries industry of the
country is seen by the development
of a new product, called “fish
flour.” according to Henry O’Mal.
ley, Commissioner of the Com
merce Department’s Bureau of
Fisheries. The total value of the
industry is now estimated at about
$500,000.
The new product is produced
from the edible parts, including
the backbone, of fish remaining
from the filleting, or packaged
fish industry. It is dried at low
temperature, under vacuum, and
fround into a fine meal or flour.
It has a pleasant taste, odor, and
fluffy appearance. It contains
about 30 per cent of minerals, con
sisting mostly of calcium phos
phate.
Much interest has been shown
in the work of developing this newr
flour by many national manufac
turers and distributors of bakery
products and other highly special
ized food products.
It has been estimated that there
is a potential production of 20,
000,000 pounds of raw material
available, provided the trend to
ward the new products is favor
able.
DEFICIT TOO HIGH
With the close of the fiscal year
officials of the Department of
the Treasury believe that recent
estimates of President Hoover that
the deficit on June 30 would be
between $900,000,000 and $950,000,
000 are possibly too high, ti was
stated .orally at the Department
on June 15. They think it might
be somewhat under that figure,
it- was said.
