OLDEN TIME RESORTS EIGHT RfcSORTS ON THE JER8EY COAST EIGHT* YEARS AGO— v NOW THERE ARE OVER SIXTY. One of the very earliest maps of New Jersey was that published by Win. Fatten. December 1. 1777. If tills map la correct our sea coast must have been a desolate wilderness, for there were few settlements on It and only an occasional road. No towns are shown on tne coast from Sandy Hook until Shrews bury Is reached. If Shrewsbury may be said to be a seaside town. The next place to the sooth Is Tlnton (Tlnlon falls.) This place also Is a considerable distance from the coast. No other places are shown on the map until a point Is reached south of Bamegal Inlet (spelled Barnlgate on the map) where we find a. town named Willis, located about where Manahawkln Is now. Deeds (evidently Deed's Point) Is the next In order, but both of these places are a long way from the coast. . The last town shown on tills map Is Cape May. and It. in reality. Is the only one ' directly located by the oeean. If this j map is true, and there Is no reason to doubt Its accuracy, there was only one town of considerable slxe on the entire j New Jersey coast In 1777. Of course tli ere was a number of very small ham- | leu, but these were too small to be dignified by a place on Faden's map. Fifty-six years later there were published "A Gaxatteer of the State of New Jersey. Comprehending a general view of Its physical and moral condition. together with a topographical and statistical account of Its counties, towns villages, canals, railroads, etc." The author In his preface says, he -Has sought to present to the public j a full and correct portraiture of the state In the year 18S3. To this 4nd he has personally visited almost fcveryvportlon of It: communed with mltoy of Its j most distinguished and enlightened clt- ^ lzens, and collected from numerous but scattered sources a mass of useful and , curious Information which must alike prove grateful to the present and succeeding generations. " I don't know how grateful the past generation was for the publication of J this quaint volume, but I do know, for one. that the present generation Is not wholly lacking in appreciation, for this ^ book has given me the chance to draw a . comparison with I8th. 19th and 20th century seashore conditions that would otherwise have been very difficult, of not Impossible. ' The Gaxetteer described with more or lees fullness all tne towns and cities of the state, but I will only take up the , places Immediately bordering on the ocean for the purpose of comparative re- , view. Sandy Hook Is described with care. Then follow the Highlands of — Nevlsir.k" (so spelled in the Gaxetteer). In writing of these hills the author tells of a remarkable cave, thirty feet long ; by fifteen broad, divided Into three apartments. The entrance and root are low, the latter arched and of soft rock, through which the water percolates; the bottom In of loose sand." What a pity It was CapL Kidd did not 'discover this place? The author says the view Is charming form the Nevlslnk hills, but , that they are so "broken up, etc., that they are unfit for residence." Shrewsbury and Shrewsbury townsnip are the next* places to the southward that are given consideration by the historian. It will he well to remember that the period described Is ^>1 so far remote as to be beyonA the recollection of men who are still active In business life. Dr. A. E. Ballard, vice-president of Ocean Grove Association and pfeslucnt of Pitman Grove Camp Meeting, was a lad of fifteen when this Gaxetteer was printed. In 18*8 Shrewsbury contained , -1* or 15 dwellings, an Episcopal and Presbyterian church; one tavern and two stores." Shrewsbury township hael a population In 1SS0 of 4.700. It paid a "state and county tax of *2.144.69." •The celebrated Dong Branch hoard- . Ing houses."' says the historian, "ho 4 named from their vicinity to a lone \braneh of Shrewsbury River, are in thts In speaking of 1-ong Branch the historian waxes enthusiastic. He says -the Inducements to Invalids, the idle and the hunters of pleasure to spend a portion of the hot season here are We quote the part referring to methods of travel and hotel life. During the season a regular line of stages runs from Philadelphia, and a steamboat from New York, to the boardlag booses lie re, of which there are several: Warden's. Itenshaw's and Scar's are the most frequented. Many respectable farmers also receive, boarders." Of course there is no mention of either Asbury Park or Ocean Qrove. for at the time this book was published James A. Bradley had. Just turned his second year, and -Dr. Stokes was only 17. It" Is safe to assume 'hat neither of these gentlemen were particularly interested at that time in seaside resorts or anything of the kind. Deal is given a brief notice, the' statemeat being made that it was a small hamlet and watering place 64 miles from TrenSin. "and * S. of Dong Branch boarding houses." Evidently the Dong Branch boarding houses made quite an Impression on the editor, who was -- dsshll'sr permitted to freely sample their good cheer In the belief that he would reciprocate wb< n It ' came to "writing up" the resort. As early as 16*3 Deal was famed as a summer resort. ' "Absecon Beach, on the Atlantic Ocean , extends eastwqrdly from Great Egg liar boor Inlet: about 9 miles to Absecon Inlet: broken, however, by a narrojg Inlet, near the midway between Its extremi- | ties." It la very likely that if the editor were In the flesh to-day and writing up I the New Jersey coast he would give this tight little Island considerably more space thaa be accorded It In his Qaxet I 1AS9 Deeds' Point -contained a store. L tavern and some 4 or 5 houses." The Bianni seams to have been ' well-nigh ^HhMi In thoae days. bad "1 taverns, 4 u t Church and 25 or *«
dwellings. A considerable trade In { cordwood, lumber and ship-building Is carried on at this place." ' Somers Point was a port of entry In 18SS, and was "much resorted to for sea I bathing in the summer and for gunning In the fall." It had a tavern, boarding house* and several farmhouses. Southward -from Somers Point no . mention Is made in the Gazetteer of any place until Cape May is reached. Ocean City was then Peek's" Beach, a dreary * aste of sand dunes and scrub oaks. C. K. La mils bad not yet appeared in his specialty of town building, in which he was pre-eminently successful at Vineland. no matter how he may have fared In his effort to duplicate his Inland success at Sea Isle City. Avalon. Pebrmoni. Stcne Harbor, -Anglesea. North Wlldwood, Wild wood. Holly Beach and Wiidwood Crest — reaorta now generally known to pleasure seekers — were then ' not In existence. Indeed, it would have been an Impossible thing to have Induced any capitalists In 1838 to have Invested in property along the seashore. Even at as late a date us 1*55 land sold In what Is now Atlantic city as low as *17.50 an acre. ' Speaking of the proposition to build a summer resort at Atlantic City, a conservative old capitalist Is quoted In ' lleston's Hand-Book of Atlantic City ns saying: "Call It a sand patch, a desolation, a awamp, a mosquito territory, but do not talk to me about any city In such a place as that. In the first place, you can't build a city there, and In the sec- , ond place. If you did you couldn't get ^ anybody to go there." We may smile at these remarks, but if the old capilalI 1st were living now he could reply to our good-natured Jibes by saying that "hindsight is better than foresight." The Gaxetteer describes 1 "overly Island as being "on the Atlantic Ucean Immediately north of Cape May island; extends about three miles In length by a half mile in breadth." This appears to be about, the location of the East Cape May Company's property. Cape May proper, or Cape May Island, , as it is called In the Gaxetteer. Is given a good deal of space by the editor. It Is," lie says, "104 miles by post-route from Philadelphia, and Is a noted and , much frequented watering place, tne ^ season at which commences about the first of July and continues until the middle of August or first of September. , There are here six boarding houses. , three of which are very large. There Is a post-office here." According to this Gaxetteer there were eight places that might be termed sum- , mer resorts on the coast of New Jersey in 1833. Of the number only (wo (Cape , May and Dong Branch) had boarding of any considerable slxe that were used exclusively for summer , In 1777 there was only one resort-- i Cape May. i In 1833 there were eight. In 1J904 there were 51, not counting j : some of the very small places. In 1913 the number had grown to 62, exclusive of some of the smaller places. How many will there be in 1975? From 1833 to 1918 the number of re- i sorts on the Jersey coast Increased by 54. A like increase In the next 29 years i would give our coast line a total of i about 100 summer resorts. Is It possible to find room for 58 more The coast, from Sandy Hook to" Bay Head is built up closely, but below that ; place to Seaside Park there Is roofn for a number of new resorts. It Is eleven j miles from Bay 'Head to Seaside Park, and in this territory there are only Mten resorts, including the two places named. From Deal to Bridle it Is eleven miles, and 'between the points named there are now fifteen resorts and room for several more. But there Is a stretch of beach ten miles, long on whiph there Is not a single resort of any description — namely. the territory from Seaside Park south so Barnegat Inlet. From Barm-gat inlet to Bond's, a distance of twenty miles, there are now eight resorts, most of tbem very small. Hriganilne Beach Is ten fhlles long, and only has one small settlement. From Atlantic City southward the beach ,4s pretty well built up until Sea Isle City Is reached. It is ten miles from Sea Isle City to Hereford Inlet, and there are only five resdrts In all this territory. Five-Mile Bead) is well covered, but there would be rdom t ween Wlldwood Crest an.l East Capo May If the demand should arise.

SOME USES OF FISH FORTY FACTORIES OS THE ATLANTIC COAST IN WHICH MEMHADEN ARE MADE INTO FISH SCRAP AND FISH OIL— DEMAND FOR FERTILIZER ON THE INCREASE. In helping the manufacturers of soil fertilizers to increase their output, the U. 8. Department of Agriculture believes that the interests of the farmer are enhanced. The use of fertilizers to supply- nitrogen to the soil is of continually increasing importance to our agricultural population. Fish refuse has proved an important source of organic nitrogen for fertilizing purposes, and the necessity of preparing it in commercial form has led to the development of the fish-scrap industry in our Atlantic States. The Department has, therefore, been conducting investigations, results of which have just been published in a pamphlet entitled "The Fish-Scrap Fertilizer Industry of the Atlantic Coast." with a view to assisting the development of this industry. There are at pnesent about forty factories iin the Atlantic Coast, whose* main output is fish-scrap and fish oil manufactured from tile menhaden. These are found all the way from Maine to Florida. The business reached its high water ■nark as long ago as 1884, and the profits since liavq never been so great, owing to the reduced price of oil and scrap resulting from the ^competition of other products. This is true notwithstanding the improvements that have been made in the methods of industry. The annunl output < in oil and scran lias not varied greatly from 70,000 tons of scrap and 35,000 barrels of oil during the past 30 years. There has been no growth in the recent past which would warrant a belief in a growth in the future. However, there seems every probabilitv of a steady demand for this The great success which fish-scrap has met with as a fertilizer is due in part to the fart that besides containing nitrogen it furnishes organic matter to tlie soil which inorganic fertilizers do not do. Animoniuff) sulphate, an inorganic substance. a by-nroduct of coke ovens, supplies almost 50 per cent of the nitrogen used as fertilizer in this country. Should there be a sudden improvement in the coking process by which all the ammonia liberated in the old form of coking oven may be recovered, .this amount would be mtftc than enough to supply all tthe fertilizer trade. In that case "the preparation of fishscrap would become commercially infeaaible. but it is much more probable that the increase in the output of ammonium sulphate will keep pace merely « ith the growing demand, and that there will be a continued demand for fish -scrap. The menhaden is not generally coa-\ sidered edible because it is "too bony" or "too oily." However, the menhaden when freshly caught and properly cooked is good to eat. although not so choice as certain other fish easily obtained. As the cost of food increases and sea fish are used for economy's sake to replace more expensive meats, there undoubtedly will be an increase in the use of the menhaden for food. The menhaden has actually been prepared as are sardines, and lias been declared a complete success when so used. A meat extract has also been made from this fish, equal in nutritive value to that of beef. While this food has been known for manv years, the process of extraction lias failed to develop on a commercial While, there is no indication at present that consumption of menhaden is on the increase, the shortage of other food, supplies mii'ht increase the demand, and this would be a matter of importance for the fish -scrap industry. The waste from such fish as are now "••nerslly eaten, forms a possible additional squree of fish-scrap. In the dressing of fish tile waste represents an average of ?5 oer cent, of the "round" weight 1 of the fish. The yearly catch of food fish in tlie Att'e m.l i.'nlf fisheries "1r about 700.- """ 000 pounds. Twenty-five ner cent, of ties rtoresepts refuse suitable for the preparation of fertilizer. .4 c—si.l—nhle portion of this it is possible to use economically for the I fisheries are scattered the whole length of Hie coast and many fish are shinped to ni • 'hot undressed, and much fresh fish 'hat is .Iressed is prepared on ship-h-urd and tlie waste thrown into the JANUARY HONOR ROLL PtTFXX.8 OF THE CAFE MA* CITT SCHOOLS WHO HAVE HOT BEEN I ABSENT HOB TAHDT DOkINO !
