2000 Code DABA Abalone Pearl Fishing Bray The Abalone is a shell fish something like a very large oyster, but having a
much more beautiful shell. It is obtained by divers, in the Pacific Ocean off the southwestern boundary of the United States. The diving boats and the divers are shown above the surface of the water, but not at all in the depths. The devil fish and octopus is frequently encountered in these waters and a small specimen is shown on the deck of the diving boat.
What are known as "free" pearls are found in the tissue of the Abalone, and what are known as "blister" pearls are found attached to the interior shell surface. Both are formed by a deposit of nacre or the iridescent pearl substance secreted by the Abalone to encase some foreign irritating substance like a grain of sand, which accidentally finds its way into the shell, where it irritates the occupant until rendered innocuous by this deposit, which in time becomes a pearl.

2001 Code DABE Goat Ranching in America Bray In some of our western states goat ranching has now become a very profitable
industry. Goats are much smaller than cows, eat less — thriving on poor feed on which cattle would starve, are hardy and easily raised and yield proportionately a large quantity of milk. The milk is entirely free from tubercular bacteria and the average yield is five quarts per goat per day.
The most profitable breed is the pure Nubian. In our visit to a large goat ranch we see many fine specimens and are shown the way the kids and other goats are fed, and a view in the milking sheds.
An unusual picture, both instructive and interesting.

2002 Code DABI Girl Pottery Makers of the Bray
Caribbean
The making of pottery by the native women of the Caribbean Islands is a highly honorable pursuit, and we follow the process from the time that the clay is dug by men in the fields through the manipulation by hand into the finished form. Apparently the potter's wheel is not used at all by the natives, and therefore the complete circular form obtained by rotation of the wheel is not attainable. Finally the pots are baked in bonfires of wood and grass.
An interesting and instructive subject.
