ANOTHER FISH INDUSTRY

An industry, new to this part of
Alaska, and one which promises to
afford means of developing the deep
sea fisheries in the territory, has re-
Gently been started in an experimental
way at Kodiak.
Moored at the Kodiak dock is the
large three masted schooner "Metha
Nelson,' which has ben converted into
floating freezing and cold storage
halibut, salmon, trout, etc, from the
plant. 1t is the intention to freeze the
fish in this vicinity, and deliver them
in their frozen condition at Seattle,
where they will be transshipped in re
frigerator cars to all parts of the I'm
tied States.
The s'Metha Nelson'' is divided into
five compartments, all thoroughly in
sulated with block cork. The tempera-
ture in these compartments is kept at
about Is or 20 degrees by and ammonia
expansion system, operated by gasoline
engines.
By means of modern methods Of re-
frigeration, fish can be kept in per
fectly fresh condition for many months,
and it will now be possible for the vari-
Gus varieties Of fish caught about Kodi,
ak to be bought in the markets Of the
United States, in the same condition
as when they were taken from the wa
ter
As soon as possible after they are
caught, they are placed on trays in the
sharp freezer.' Here they remain I'M
til thoroughly frozen. They are then
glazed by dipping them several times
into tank of ice water, causing a coat
of ice to form on them, tending to alb
solutely protect them against the at
tack Of germs. After allowing them to
harden for short time, the fish are
wrapped in a white washed or parch-
ment paper, then in imported Swedish
wrapping paper, and are kept in cold
storage, at temperature ranging from
IS to 20 degrees, until required for use.
It is intended to employ, to as great
an extent as possible, the residents Of
Kodiak and near by communities for
taking the fish and operating the cold
storage plant. In this work great
many men and boys will be employed,
who otherwise might find some Difficult
ty in gettin gwork. Should've venture
prove success, it is predicted that Ko
diak will again see the prosperity that
it enjoyed in the old days of the sea
