W. Gudger, American Museum of Natural History Cormorant fi;jli'ns in the rivers and lakes of JapHn is carried on both as a sporting and as a commercial pro- position. A.S a rogtilar sportiu.i; at- traction, usually carried on at nii;lit, It attracts a lar^e number of sight-seers among llie Japanese, and barges with lantern?, servant, and refreshments rarry the visitors to the fishing ground!--. A writer in the London Times, Major-General Palmer, gives a clear account of how the fi.shing is done. at night, by the light of great capes of blazing pine-knots suspended over the bow of each boat to attract the fish: 'There are. to be.s;in with, tour men in each of the seven boats before ue, one of whom, at the stern, has no duty but that of managing his craft. In the bow stands the master, handling no fewer than 12 trained birds with surpassing skill. Amidships is an- other fisher, of the second grade, who handles four birds only. Between them is the fourth man who, with a bamboo instrument, makes the clatter necessary for keeping the birds up to their work. Each cormorant wears at tlie base of its neck a metal ring, drawn tight enough to prevent mark- etable fish from passing below it, but at the same time loose enough to ad- mit the smaller prey, which serves as having attachAl to it at the middle of the back a short strip of stiffish whalebone, by which the great awk- ward bird may be conveniently low- ered into the water or lifted out when at work; and to this whalebone is r^ . , ., , ^ looped a thin rein of spruce fiber, 12 ^ vigorate and purify the ^ ,,gt io„g_ j^„,, ,„ ,.,r ^^nting in ^ entire svstem and lav the IF pUancy as to minimize the chance of entanglement. "The muster lowers his 12 birds one by one into the stream and gathers their reins into his left hand; and forthwith the cormorants set to at their work in the hearties and jol- liest way, diving and ducking with wonderful swiftness as the astonish- ed fish come flocking toward the } blaze of light. The master is now , the businest of men. He must handle I his 12 strings so deftly that, let the j birds dash hither and thither as they j will, there shall be no impediment. He must have his eyes everywhere and his hands following his eyes. Specially he must watch tor the moment when any of his flock is forged â€" a fact generally made known by the bird it- self, which then swims about in a fool- Chicoutimi Progres du Sagnenay ish helpless way, with its head and (Ind.): (The increased activity of swollen neck erect.

For one bird will catch about 150 fish of four or five inches length in an hour, or 450 tor the usual three- hour fishing trip. Every bird in a flock has and knows its numbers: and one of the funniest things about them is the quick-witted jealousy with which they invariably insist, by all that cormorant languauge and panto- mimic protest can do, on the obser- vance of their recognized rights. No. 1, or "Ichi," is the senior in rank. His colleagues come after him In numer- ical order. Ichi is the last to be put into the water and the first to be taken out, the first to be fed, and the last to enter the baskets in which when work is over, the birds are carried home. It, for instance. No. 5 be put into the water before No. 6, the rumpus that arises is a sight to see and a sound to hear." Cormorants are also used in an- other way â€" by men wading iu streams. The cormorants are often as pointer dogs, and apparently full of perfect enjoyment. To the right and left they plunge with lightning strok- es, each dip bri;iging up a shining fish. When the fish are sorted the small fish are thrown first to one bird and then to another. Each bird catches his share "on the fly " and makes a .'^ound which doubtless means that he likes the fun and will be glad to try it gain at the proper time. (Note: The author quotes at length from the acouuts of many ancient and I contemporary writers to show that this time-bonored Fapauese sport is carried on now much as It has been jfor centuries. 1â€" The Scientific Month- liy.
