First Light Frost Seen
Early Monday Morning
The first light frost of the season
was noted in exposed areas early
Monday morning. Thermometers on
back porches registered a cool 41
degrees, four degrees lower than
during thé last cold spell three
weeks ago. No damage to crops is
reported. Edna, the hurricane which
lashed New England Friday and Sat-
urday, passed the Back Mountain by
with only a few sharp gusts, and
not enough rainfall to do any great
amount of good.

Pioneer Fishermen
Robbed Pennsylvania
Of Caviar Industry
Pioneer fishermen who failed to
realize the value of the American
sturgeon deprived Pennsylvania of
the chance to build up an American
‘Caviar says Henry W.
Shoemaker, president of the Penn-
Folklore State
industry,
sylvania
Museum.
Citing J. W. Sheibley, of Landis-
burg, Perry County, and the late
Henry K. Deisher, of Kutztown,
Berks County, as authorities, Shoe-
maker said “there was no finer,
gamier fish in the Susquehanna than
the sturgeon, which was ignomini-
ously wasted by our early fisher-
men, in the belief that sturgeon
destroyed shad and Susquehanna
salmon.
Society,
“There early fishermen hauled
the sturgeon from the Susquehanna’
and its tributaries in nets and liter-
ally threw them away to die or sold
them by the wagon load for a mere
trifle as fertilizer. This wanton des-
truction went on while the pioneer
fishermen were ignorant of the two
dollar a pound price in Europe for
sturgeon roe or caviar.
“Captain Cecil Clay, an early Sus-
quehanna naturalist, noted the re-
semblance of the Susquehanna stur-
geon roe or eggs to the European
caviar or European sturgeon eggs,
and predicted a prosperous business
for Pennsylvania fishermen if they
would conserve the sturgeon and
market the eggs or roe as Susque-
hanna Caviar.
“Other experts also predicted a
fortune could be made if the Sus-
quehanna sturgeon eggs or roe were
salted and marketed as American
Caviar.
“The sturgeon swam up the Sus-
quehanna River and entered the
river’s creek tributaries to spawn.
These spawning streams included
the Codorus in York County, the
Yellow Breeches, York and Cumber-
land counties, the Conodoguinet in
Cumberland County and Sherman's
Creek in Perry County.
“In spawning the eggs or roe were
carefully scooped up by misguided
anglers and commercial fishermen
who threw them away to decrease
the sturgeon in the belief that the
fish was an enemy of the shad and
the salmon.
“However, later
have made studies which indicate
that the sturgeon fed on snails,
crawfish and insect larvae and even
wheat and corn discarded from mills
along the streams.
“The early abundance of sturg-
eon in the Susquehanna River and
its tributaries and its subsequent
elimination is another tragic chap-
ter in the story of man’s wasteful
destruction of life in this country.
“Around 1873 the sturgeon
showed signs of diminishing in num-
bers, when they were subjected to
wholesale slaughter. They were tak-
en abundantly in nets and roughly
gaffed with hooks. Then they were
either thrown back into the water
mortally wounded or cast on the
ground to die, after which they
were used as fertilizer.
“Old timers tell of some mighty
sturgeons caught in the Susquehan-
na near Harrisburg. A 57 1-2 inch
sturgeon = weighing 47 pounds
dressed at 22 pounds and the roe
weighed almost 12 pounds. A 39
inch sturgeon weighed 14 pounds
when caught. There was one report
of 109-pound sturgeon.
“Of course today there would be
little or no caviar business for Penn-
sylvania. The development of power
dams in the lower Susquehanna
made an insurmountable barrier for
the shad and salmon which no long-
er are found north of the dams. And
these dams would have stopped the
spawning migrations of the sturgeon
as well.
“But until the coming of power
dams Pennsylvania might have had
a flourishing American caviar in-
dustry.”
