HERRING PACK
FOR SECTION
IS LARGE ONE
.Much Attention Is Being Attracted
To New Industry in This Section
of Alaska—Seward Will Be the
Home Tort of Industry
Wtih the close of the present sea
son drawing near, the herring fishery
is attracting more attention and has
sprung into greater prominence than
ever before. What was, particularly
in this section, a latent industry, now
offers unlimited possibilities.
The packing of herring at a profit
in Alaska this year was made pos
sible by the European embargo on
that product. In order that the in
dustry recently begun may not be
stifled nor the market for American
herring undermined there is an ur
gent need for some form of protective
tariff. It is more than probable, how
ever, that the U. S. Bureau of Eish
l erics will take some action in the ad
1 justmv*nt of this matter since their ef
1 forts in furthering the industry have
been marked and effective.
When the herring fishery has as
| sumed its due proportions and is car
ried on as on the Atlantic, by steam
drifters, Seward, by reason of its lo
cation on the Gulf of Alaska, is cer
tain to be the home port of such a
fleet.

approximately MOO barrels, Scotch;
and Norwegian cured herring. The)
pack should be more than doubled
this year. The Scotch cure, which
was introduced by the Government1
this year is favorably looked upon by j
packers, and next season will see a}
larger outfit of this cure which is su
perior to the Norwegian cures.
