QUALITY OF
SALMON FIRST
Fish Export Says (trading of Salmon
By Specie Is Wrong
Criterion
SEATTLE, Aug. 1, (Mail Corres
pondence).—The quality of salmon,
rather than the species, should be the
criterion in the grading of salmon for
human consumption, and until this
system is established the public will
continue to buy inferior fish, accord
ing to Dr. C. McLean Fraser, the di
rector of the federal biological station
at Nanaimo, B. C., in an address be
fore the members of the Pacific f ish
eries Society yesterday in Science
hall on the state university campus.
Dr. Frascr was one of the four speak
ers at the first day of the session of
the society.
“The present method of grading 1 a
citic canned salmon is based largely on
the difference in species. The qual
ity of the flesh varies in the same
species in different areas and at differ
ent times in the same area," he said.
“The fish is in the best condition at
the time the milt or roe begins to de
velop rapidly in preparation for the
spawning period. In prime condition
the flesh of any salmon is edible, but
as spawing time approaches, the flesh
of all species becomes unfit for food.”
Sixty men interested especially in
the culture of fish, including many of
the county hatchery superintendents of
Washington, representatives of the
federal bureau of fisheries and scien
tists from the universities and biologi
cal stations of the Pacific coast, were
present when the session was opened
Tuesday morning by Prof. Trevor Kin
caid, the president of the society. At
the morning session C. E. Crampton,
an expert in charge of the research
work in salmon culture on St. Paul
island in the PribilofT group, was the
only speaker. He reported on the suc
cess that he has met in producing a
hybrid type of salmon which he be
lieves will be found to be superior to
the natural breeds.
