CORDOVA SHIPS FIRST
SALMON OF SEASON
There has been considerable rivalry
this year as to which cannery would
ship the first canned salmon from
Alaska, says a recent issue of the
Pacific Fisherman.
For several years past the Carlisle
Packing Company’s plant at Cordova
has been the earliest shipper. This
year the first lot, including shipments
of Alaska Reds from several can
neries, all in the Cordova district,
was sent out on the steamer Alameda,
reaching Seattle during the first week
of June. This included 6,000 cases
from the Carlisle Packing Company,
which commenced canning May 17;
3,000 cases from the Eyak River
Packing Company, which started up
May 22 consigned to the G. Batcheller
Hall Company and 2,000 cases from
the Alaska Sea Food Company, con
signed to the C. M. Pettibone Com
pany.
