PICKLING INDUSTRY 



The salmon-pickling industry was so overshadowed by its giant I 

 brother, the canning industry, that statistical data, except for Alaska, 

 were found in extremely fragmentary shape, and only that portion 

 is shown relating to Alaska from the time of annexation to and 

 including 1928.

 Fisherman.
