SEATTLE FIRMS ARE
PREPARING SALMON
FOR EASTERN TRADE
CHINOOK CATCH AND SHIPMENTj
LAST YEAR AGGREGATED
14,000,000 POUNDS
1 --
j SEATTLE, June 23. (zp)—Eastern
i epicureans., to whom mild-cured
| salmon taken from north Pacific
j waters is a delicacy, can now sleep
i in peace, certain that during the
j summer and fall they will be able to
| satisfy their aesthetic appetites with
generous helping of the luscious
'red fish meat.
J Tons of the Chinook salmon are
! being received by Seattle packers,
which are being prepared for ship
ment to satisfy this exacting eastern
trade. McCallum & Legaz. on Pier
12, were preparing 128,000 pounds of
the meat. During the season this
firm, one of several catering to the
trade, "handles approximately 1,500,
1 000 pounds of choice fish.
Relished by Easterners
Mild-cured salmon, while not a
popular fish on the Pacific coast, is
a tidbit relished by easterners to
the extent of paying as high as 50
I to 60 cents a pound.
The top market price for the fish,
stored and salted in 825 pound casks,
is 35 cents a pound in Seattle. Fish
jermen who supply the firm with it3
fish from the Neah Bay and British
Columbia fishing grounds, receive 18
cents a pound for their catch. The
public knows very little about mild
| cured salmon, Mr. McCallum. head
.of the firm says. All the fish used
are caught by trolling. Only extra
! large, red fleshed salmon are used,
i Small sized reds and any size white
! salmon are used for the fresh mar
| ket.
Year's pack is 14,000,000 Pounds.
After being taken from the icy
j Pacific waters, the salmon are re
j packed in ice and brought to Seattle,
i The fish are split, the backbone,
| head, tail and fins discarded, and
! the slabs of juicy red meat are put
in the casks in a high-grade table
salt. They are put in cold storage
j tor two or three weeks, again salted
down and assorted, according to
; size. They are then ready for the
| eastern market, where they aVe
j smoked slightly and sold at delica
tessen and fancy food stores, ready
| tor the table without any cooking.
The pack last year exceeded 14,000,
000 pounds.
