Fisheries
have revolutionized the business of
transporting fish from the water to
your table.
They have eliminated uncertainty
not only from the standpoint of the
quantity produced, but they have so
perfected their organization that they
are prepared to guarantee that the
fish delivered to you are in perfect
condition.
A half-century ago fish were taken
from the water arid laid on sun-baked
decks of none too clean fishing ves
sels until they reached port

The heads of this Department, and
also that of Refrigeration, are experts,
