CENTERS OF THE INDUSTRY. 
The salmon-packing industry of the United States is centered 
mainly in four localities: The Columbia River, Puget Sound, south- 
eastern Alaska, and western Alaska or the Bristol Bay region. The 
industry along the Columbia Eiver is distributed from The Dalles, 
Oreg., to the mouth of the river, though the greatest number of can- 
neries is located near the mouth of the river, in the neighborhood of 
Astoria. On Puget Sound, the industry is centered around Belling- 
ham, Anacortes, and Port Townsend ; there is an additional number 
of canneries in the Grays Harbor vicinity, on the Straits of Fuca. In 
southeast Alaska the canneries are distributed over the large area of 
islands and fiords extending from the Icy Straits to Dixon Entrance. 
In western Alaska they are situated principally on Bristol Bay. The 
locations of the various canneries in Alaska are shown in figures 
1 and 2.
