That, at least, il the opinion OF H
j. Bugge, who runs canning plant
near Tacoma, who expresses his views
in the News.
1t is said that the only steam clam.
digger operated on the Pacific Coast is
the one operated by Mr.. Bugge. This
is q huge steam-shOvel arrangement
f1oated on a scow. The clans used
for canning purposes are taken from
beds II to IA feet under water. As
many as 1,5O0 bushels of CLANS have
been taken from one bed in one tide.
The clam beds at Port Williams are
the largest and best in the State. The
shore line of the bay is about five
miles long and nearly the entire dis
tance is one big clam.bed comprising
thousands OF acres.
The location OF the Port Williams
cannery is called "Sequim," an In.
dian name. The name is the Indian
word for clam and as pronounced
by the Indians is an imitation of the
sound made by CLANS when they walk.
"Do CLAIMS walk? Certainly they
do," said Mr.. Bugge, from whom the
above information was secured while
he was in Tacoma on q business trip
recently. eff you have ever visited
clam BEDS" continued Mr.. Bugge,
you have noticed irregular tracks
through the sand, such as might have
been made by . trailing stick. These
tracks are made by CLAIMS which crawl
or walk slowly over the wet beach.
When so walking they make q sound
that is just like "Sequim" ss pro.
nounced by the Indians.

Clam nectar is also put up and oven
the shells are utilized, more than 100
tons having been sold this season for
chicken feed.
A shell-grinder for pulverizing the
shells will be one of the improve.
ments added to the plant this year.
1T is probable, however, that the
marks on the sand are made by q spe-
cies of clam known a. "cohog," dis
tinguished by radiating indentations
and serrated she'll. which OF the ordi-
nary clam are longitudinal and the
edges smooth. These, it has been OBJ

their shells, in their desperate death
struggles; their long snouts. when
projected and drawn in enabling them
to move their shells. A familiar asser-
ton of the school-boys, in pioneer
times, that the geoduck was able to
elude pursuit, by sinking suddenly
into the mud, was explained in after
years by the knowledge that that
mammoth form OF clam lives from one

flats, and has long snout which
reaches outside his clammy home. and
