imit theirdestructive trade to certain periods. To secure this it behooves theAssemblies of the States bordemng the Atlantic to jjass an act lim-iting the catching of menhaden with seine nets to an open seasonand have the rest of the year close. Tiiis would allow the menha-den time to multiply and would secure the future of the fish markets. In form the menhaden resembles the shad/ It has the same shapeand contour of body. It is a bright silvery fish, and so far as Iknow, has never been taken with a hook. One of the most usefulpurjjoses the menhaden serve is in the lobster fisheries; the fish aresalted before being used for bait. The menhaden are almost all ofone size—about twelve inches long. The farmers of Long Islandsometimes eat the mossbunker. It has an oily, rather rancid and fishy taste.
