All soft crabs have to be fished out and shipped lf
soon as they shed their hard shell. fur. if allowed to re-
main in the float over twenty-tour hours, they will gen-
erally turn to hard crabs. The hard crabs are allowedl
`o remain in tho iiosts and are fished out and shipped as
needed.
Many persons, unfamiliar with the habits of the crab.
are confused by the terms "harrl’ and “Botti” l'°fGYl'1“_B
to the some cranturr. The "soft" condition of the “hard
ti shellilsh
crab is a provision of nature which allows le
to grow.
Tho shell of the hard crab is almost as rigid as steel.
und, of course, as long as it incases the body, growth ll
not possi’le.
At certain periods-from twelve to fifteen times in its
life-the crab sheds its hard shell and emerges from it
with a skin on soft and pliable almost as that of In
infant.
lt is during this "soft" state that the crab mites
advantage of opportunity to grow. Gradually its soft
shin hardens again into tho illnly shell, and when this
stage la reached once more tho crab ceases to grow
until it again becomes soft.
While it remains in its natural habitat. on the bot-
tom of_rivor or bay. thc skin of the soft crab hardens
rapidly to its usunl condition-n couple of tides, or half a
day, carrying it to a condition that Emoves it from the
best class of tile soft-shell variety. .
PACKING IS CAREFULLY DONE ‘l
The packing for shipping of thc soft crab is one of the
most important parts of the crab business, Rogulur
crab boxes-nr: manufactured, containing six trays n:.l.io
of lntlls. Tho crabs are packed sido by side with claws
nlni tins (nlilnd up. one lnycr to ll tray, then co\'r‘rof`l
\\‘illi rl llurlup netting tilt- size of tile tray.
The netting is vwcrori with dry scslvecd and lhcll
crnckuil ice is pint,-cd over the seaweed. This tray is
placed ill the hox, and the ncxt tray, treated ill tho
some milllllor, is plzlovd on to|l of the llrst tray.
_ The lid is ni-lrlllw-ly nnilml on tho box after all trays
have bot.-ll pot-l;i~li nnrl tho crnls are ready for shipping.
Th;-_ n\'i>rng.x crab box has s orlpavity of fifteen dozen.
The lzrnl, pnvli.-r must ho vi-ry particular to pack the
crllstnccnns just right or hc- runs tho risk of losing the
entire lslllpnlollt, for surllvtilalvs they are five days on the
road bciora dt~li\‘u-ry, ` _
The in~portul\t tiling is to pack them so that they will
lio in one position and yct not be so close as to muah
ons onoiiwr. Thu it-:lst jar or moving ubout ill the box
is fatal, . - _ r
' Then, ngtlin, thc icing is a very particular point. They
must be it-cd to one dogrcc for Baltimore, to another
' degroc for New York, to ullotllur for Chicago, and so on,
uccording to thi-lr dusilllnilon.
In shipping to extreme points the refrigerator box
is used, and this uids much in insuring Hood delivery.
Tho worst onomy df thc,pucker is the express com-
pany. The liltier, as a rule, has but a dim idea of tho

uvcrriilc larlcc of ilboul 156 cents a dozen.
At times the mnrkot for soft crabs will reach tho

tluln a fourth of that llmount, Tho market is governed
by thu suv of thi- cntvh, which in turll depends upon tho

~ Of' course. the cold spring called forth hordes ot
weather prophets and explainers. They spring up on
such occasions and offer various explanations. The
most ingenious reuorffor the' cold spring was that
propouueed by Lewis Illmsrr. ot atlantic city.
‘The eartivs simply oft its axle." was Emeril su-
thoritstlve and emphatic opinion. "Csn't you sae ltl I
sighted the cold snap lnng before the govsrnmunt
slouths."
‘Emery said the wrnngpoaltion of the earth lad
been caused by the violent earthquakes of the last few
y,eu.rs. Ther; were the shake-ups of Qhrtialquc. .is-
malca. San tancilcn.
"Tse earth shook and shook!" said fmery. "Bh&

lnani est results and one ln gy be instilled in be lev-

oillitlnls do not place lnuch credence on the change-cb
waxls explanation.
That tho sun or moon has entllcd the cold lvcnthcr
is disbolievcll by rl \\'nsl\lnnt0n expert. As to thu uc-
