OBSERVATIONS
' around—except for six weeks in the
| spring during closed season. They
j are also shippers of fresh fish, ha.lt
j hut, and distributors of crab meat
l\.r the Northern Sea Food Co.,
which is one of the newer indus
tries. While looking around we
discovered that the Glacier Sea Food
Company ships more shrimp out of
Petersburg than is shipped from any
o*her place in the world.
There are two sawmills here—one
across the Narrows—Knutsen Bros ,
and one at Scow Bay, Alaska Spruce
Mills, Oscar Sather, Manager. The
lumber industry has been rather
qviet but they are now in position
t<- handle considerable work the
coming season.
The good ship was due to leave
Petersburg Saturday night and as
a. . annery man at Washington Bay
said of Pederson “he is the only
captain to maintain a schedule on
th>t run” we went aboard plenty
eaily to be sure of getting out on
her. Leaving Petersburg we called 1
again at Kake and then Saginaw
Bey. At this place is a branch of ^
Ar. nson & Co., of Big Port Wal-j
ter, salt herring, meal and fertiliz
ers. A little farther down the
Straits is Washington Bay now quite
ar industrial point. The Marine
Packing and Reduction Co., puts up
meal and fertilizer; Eric Ness, Peters-j
burgan has a scow and is salting
herring; Storfold and Grondahl
have the most diversified plant of
any on the coast. They salt her
ring, meal and fertilizer is produc
ed from the smaller herring; they
freeze and mild cure salmon. The
feature which most interested the
writer was their venturre into a new
line—a “cold pack.” They take
sliced salmon smoked, and put it up
in olive oil in cans the size of sar
dines. This is an industry which
will employ many people and there
will be a new era for the industry
when such fancy packs become more
general.
-\t the Bay of Pillars is the Fi
dalgo Island company operating a
salmon cannery and herring reduc
tion plant along with other her
ring products. Near by is also the
trolling grounds where many boats
operate. Tebenkoff Island in the
near vicinity we saw Olaf Tenfjord
a former resident of Petersburg and
no f one of the most successful fox
farmers in the country. Crossing
lower Chatham Straits we come to
Fort Alexander—the Troller’s Wall
Street— and paradise where at.
times one may see as many as a
thousand boats—good, bad and in
different coming and going at all
hours of the day and night. Busi
ness here, while seasonable, is built
on a cash basis for the most part
and the town has had a wonderful
growth. Several stores, Standard
Oil Service, three docks, a number
of mild cure plants on floatng
equipment. The Baranof Packing
Co., has two large power scows now
in Alaska with commissary and oil
service on board. They also have
a flyng machine which they use in
their operations. The troller’s
strike is over and so is the first run
of salmon but they expect another
very shortly. This town will sur
prise many of the old heads in Alas
ka as to the amount of business done
each year and the extent of its ac
tivities.
Continued next week.
