To Contractors along the U. S. Rail
road:
Gentlemen: Allow me to say a few
words about the delivery of fish and
other sea foods along the railroad. If
i
, you could decide to give the commis
sion a standing order whenever trains
are running once or twice a week it
would give me a basis to calculate my
supply orders, and you would be able
to get the fish in the very best con
1 dition. My cold storage is well sup
plied with ice, but the fish does not
| improve by holding it from train to
train while awaiting orders.
Fish is the best of food, not alone
palatable, but a wholesome change
from an excessive meat diet. In these
expensive days fish will reduce the
amount of your board bill. Salmon
and halibut are always on hand. It
will be delivered to you at your place •
of work for 321-2 per pound. Salt;
salmon bellies at outside market prices j
in small quantities or for half barrel
or 300-pound lots.
Hoping to hear from you. through;
the commission, I remain.
Yours truly,
SEWARD FISH CO.,
S. Lundblad.
