MILD CURING OF SALMON. 



The business of mild curinfj salmon in Alaska fell off materially 

 in 1920, evidence of which is found not only in the smaller pack but 

 also in the with(h'awal of six of the largest oi)erators in 1919. Con- 

 spicuous among those who withdrew were the Pacific Mild Cure Co., 

 with eight plants, the Columbia & Northern Fishing & Packing Co., 

 Vendsyssel Packing Co., Columbia Salmon Co., and M. B. Dahl & 

 Co. H. R. Thompson, of Ketchikan, was the only important mild 

 curer of last year w^ho continued operations in 1920. The mild 

 curers of 1920 who packed more than 100 tierces each are shown in 

 the following list : 



Wrangell Cooperative Association Wrangell. 



Atlantic & Pacific Fisherie.s Co Port Alexander. 



Alaska Union Fislieries (Inc.) Port Alexander.
