PACIFIC HALIBUT FISK
AMOUNTS 57 PER CERT
ENTIRE WORLD CATCH
“To us on the Pacific Coast our
halibut fishery is a rather com
monplace thing: we know it is
big and important, but probably
few of us realize that, with its
annual production of over $50,
000,000 pounds, it represents over
57 per cent of the entire halibut
catch of the world. A British
authority cites the latest available
figures for various halibut pro
ducing waters as follows: Euro
pean fisheries, 36,307,000 pounds,
or 36 per cent; Atlantic coast of
United States and Canada, 6,095,
779 pounds (1928 statistics), or 6
per cent; Pacific coast of United
States and Canada (1929), 57,
692,595 pounds, or 57.1 per cent;
and Japan (1928), 871,488 pounds,
or 0.9 per cent,” reports the Pacific
Fisherman.
Calling attention to the fact
that the Pacific halibut fishery is
the only marine fishery in the
world under international control
aiming at conservation of the
stock, the same authority says:
• “For this reason, the measures
being adopted in the actual con
trol, the success attending these
measures, and the manner in
which the responsible administrat
ors are tacklnig the great prob
lems with which they tre faced,
are all being carefully studied by
the nations generally. In a way,
I suppose, the feasibility of inter
national cooperation in fisheries
[control is being put to the test.” j

MANY SURPRISES IN
STONE EON VISITORS
TO THE NORTHLAND
Many yachts already have visit
ed Ketchikan and Southeast Alas
ka the present year and guests on
board on their first trip to the north
invariably are impressed with the
bustling up-to-dateness of Ketchi
kan and Alaska towns which they
visit says the Chronicle.
One of these the other day mar
velled at the variety of goods car
ried by Ketchikan merchants and
especially in the wide range offered
buyers in grocery stores.
He stood in front of one grocery
store and made a notation in his j
diary for sending letters back home.
In this store he noted fresh straw
berries, cherries, apples, bananas,
rhubarb, radishes, onions, turnips,
celery, oranges, lemons, tomatoes,
cantalopes, pineapples, carrots, cau
liflower, etc.
A resident could have told him j
that Alaskans have a longer straw- j
berry season than any places in the
states. They get the earliest straw- j
berries from Florida and Mexico, j
later from California, Oregon andj
Washington, and after these arej
all gone, still later from Aaska gar- i
dens. During the summer also are
added from Alaskan gardens, and
growing wild, blueberries, huckle
berries, currants, gooseberries, rasp
berries, eldeberries, and many kinds
of vegetables and other small fruit.

the middle of June for Seward to
visit his parents during the sum
