TO BE CALLED “HUMP BACKS”

Ruling Is Made Canned Ffkh Must Bear Honest Labels. Washington, March 12.—As some packers put up “hump back” and “dog” salmon under fancy names and sell the goods to consumers who believe them to be superior varieties, the department of agriculture has ordered that these fish be honestly labeled. The decision also says that the fish commonly known as lake herring and cisco must not be called “white fish.”
