Swedish Food
Profiteers Get Warning
Stockholm, July 28.?The profits of
the Swedish middleman, dealing in
necessities, especially foad supplies,
are menaced as the result of the investigation
into living costs by a
commission of experts appointed by
the Swedish government. The com'mission
sought information on intermediary
profits and their influence on
diving costs with a view t oeliminatunnecessary
profits, thus cutting
down Cetail prices, and has just is
suea us report, u ihukcs some mastic
recommendations. Official action
is expected.
The cbmmission recommends a reduction
in U>e number of retail stores;
that' a permanent national statistical
bureau be organized by the Social
Hbtfrd to study producers prices, arid
that local commissions be appointed
throughout the country to check up
on price movements. It is suggested
that the theory of cooperative
work be introduced in suitable schools
as h compulsory subject of study, and
emphasizes the importance of closer
cooperation between producer and
consumer. - * *

Concerning Eels
Washington, July 25 (By the Associated
Press).?The common, everyday,
niudhole eel, the problem of fish- *
ermen, especially the small boy, when '
it comes to taking him off a hook, is 1
an elusive subject, but his life history !
typifies one of the marvels of the sea, i
and recent announcements have added 1
to his reputation.
Reports have just reached here of ?
the success of a Danish expedition to <
the Bermudas, in answering the an- '
cient question of the eel's origin, s
Headed by Dr. Jobs. Schmidt, direc- <
tor of the Carlsberg Laboratory, of <
Copenhagan, the party, on the ship 1
Dana, has been searching the seas for 1
seven months to find where the eei '
breeds and is hatched. As the eel in- 1
dustry is of prime importance in Den- <
mark, the party was equipped by the 11
government and several societies in 1
conjunction. Dr. Schmidt has been i
making a special study of the eel for 1
moije than 15 years. 1
Since at least 350 B. C. scientists
have been trying to find the eel'b r
birthplace, and by tracking down the 1
route found taken by the young eels. v
Dr. Schmidt placed the breeding ^
grounds between th Bermudas and the 11
Leeward Islands, where the seu 0
reaches a depth of more than a mile.'
Here the most rem?rW?til? I f
try was made: That the European s
species and the American, which vary ( 11
so slightly as to bo almost negligible,! v
and absolutely so to the layman, breed: s
side by side and eventually start for 1
their later homes, thousands of miles ?
away, but that neither variety evei
goes to the other's fresh water *
grounds. P
The marvel is, to scientists, accord- r
ing to Dr. H. F. Moore, deputy commissioner
of the U. S. Bureau of A
Fisheries, that of the millions of
young making the trips, instances of
discovery of the European species in
American waters, and vice versa, have
been exceedingly rare. And there is A
no interbreeding between the two. ji
The European species,* Dr. Schmidt 2
found, deposit their eggs and greed m F
a section to the south and east of the tl
Bermudas, while the other breeds to B
the south and west of the islands. f<
The first make a thre year migration S
to the shores of Europe from the o
North Sea to Italy, while the second ti
journey to the American coast from u
New England to the south coast, tak- A
ing only a few months or a year. o:
It was found that the eggs are
hatched at depths of about 200 metres, d
the young larvae gradually rising as tl
they grow until some were found on a
the surface. It is also true that the S
larvae vary their depth in the water li
according to the time of day. At this tl
stage, and until they reach coast wa- y
teds, they are known as "leptocepha- g
lide" and are ribbon or leaf-shaped jc
and quite transparent; so transpar- ti
ent, in fact that under a lens the ver- 0
tebrae may be tounted, the olny means
of determining the species. The Eu- v
ropean variety, it was found, have
more vertebrae than the American.
The translucent quality is believed ^
to be a means of avoiding peril, as the r
leptocephalus is found In schools a
along the coast line in spring and
must undoubtedly form a food for
larger fish. As they approach sl\oai
brackish water there comes a marveleus
metamorphosis, they change from r
the ribbon shape to the cylindrical
familiar form, but are still trans- ^
parent. They become much thicker
and are even shorter than before. t|
They gradually assume light lines of
pigment, though remaining translu- ^
cent for some time, and as the pigment
increases the dark color becomes y
more and more apparent until they
ere of the familiar color.
In this connection is pointed out ^
the immense trip the leptocephalide
make, those journeying to European j
waters being three years on the way, ^
so that, according tc Dr. Schmidt,
there are always two migrations on
the way, and in early spring, three,
before the first reach shore. As it is ^
not until brackish water is reached ^
that the metamorphosis occurs, the
question that still puzzles scientists ^
is whether the American species matures
more rapidly than the other, or ^
whether the change of water is nec
essary for the change from lptocep- *
halus to elver, as the young eel is .
known.
This eel is the same as that cougbt
in far inland ponds and muddy
streams, and makes a wonderful jour- ?
ney to arrive there.
They can live for long periods 1
out of water, as is well known among
fishermen, and sometimes *
travel overland, from .stream to *
stream, or up tha faces of dams and
ulong the sides of rocks, in search of
sufficient water. It is said the male 1
remains along the coastal waters 8
while the female makes the inland C
trip. The three or four inch elvers
may easily be picked from the faces *
cf dams or other obstructions as they
climb, after a fashion of clinging un- c
der the water film, to the rocks.
They live for years in fresh water, 4
the period being variously placed at 8
from five years to as many as 20 and *
30 as estimated by the Englishman, O. *
Tate Regan. In the fall, the mature ^
eels journey back to the sea, the males
then being from 12 to 18 inches in
length, and the females never less r
than 18. At the original breeding f
places it is believed they spawn and t
die, as they are never seen again. *
It is during this fall trip the eels ^
fall prey to fishermen, who reap a
good harvest as they are a prime food ^
fish. While not so highly prized in *
this country, in Europe they are considerable
exceedingly high from the fc
North Sea to Italy, and the Danish t
And Holland industries are of especial c
importance in those countries. The
fish are caught in traps similar to lobiter
pots or rat traps, entering a nar- r
/
row funnel mouth after the bait, and 4
being unable to find the outlet. <
It is estimated by the Bureau of
Fisheries the eeljcat^h in this coun- *
try is more tlmn.tnjree t^nd a half mil- i
lion pounds annually, valued at more i
than a quarter of a million dollars. ?
Most American commercial eel fish- 4
ing is along the Atlantic from New
Kngland to the Chesapeake.
While it is not generally known, the 4
eel has scales, which develop after <
he elver has lived a year in fresh <
ivater. They are embedded in the 4
.limy skin arrangd in little groups set
bliquely and at right angles to each }
>ther. They may be studied under a) *<]
ens and form a mean? of determining ^
he age of the fish, as they are marked ?
n zones which correspond to growth ^
ings. Scales are formed In the midHe
of the side and if examined in the }
;pring the number of the zones will
orrespond to the age of the scale. The ^
el is then one year older for the ?
irst year in fresh water, and another ^
or his life as a leptocephalus. Jj
By applying thia method a Danish J
laturalist, Dr. Clemzoe, has shown |
hat some eels captured in the fall
rere as old as 1'2 and 12 years, and
legan estimates others weighing a nuch
as 27 pounds must have been 20
r 30 years or more." |
These species should not be con- j
used with the lamprey eel, Dr. Moore
aid, which is equipped with u sucker T
nouth and many sharp teeth with
t'hich it attaches itself to other lish,
ometimes wounding them deeply. J
'hey even attack large fish, animais ^
nd humans, it is said. *ji
Dr. Schmidt's expedition is now on
he return to Denmark, where it is exlected,
his discoveries, and the other
esults will shortly be announced. ]
