ATTEMPTING TO 1NJURE coRDovA INDUSTRY

There every prospect that the canning of the shell fish o Alaska will become of the extensive industries o the territory and this is particularly true as regards Prince N- liam Sound where the most delicious clans and crabs are to be found in an unlimited quantity At the present time clam packing plant is in operation at Corova and its pack includes the finest bvaves be found anywhere in the world In fact variety far superior to clans the Pacific coast that claim that after the COrdova brand has been on the market short time its superiority will gain for of that enjoyed by other clans packe
 does this industry get fairly established than competitors in the States get out their hammer evidently azng that the CorOva claims luscious and SWeeer long the buying public will become fognzant of this and decrease in their business follow In order to counteact this result they have esored to circulating ma icOusv false reports among which is the statement that of the extensive copper deposits in Alaska all clans coming from the territory have decided taste of copper Even Frank G. Carpenter who made trip to Alaska last summer, writing series of articles for the leading daes ot the United States the norhland empire that has to very careful the of his clam supply Some of bvaves feed in the waters the deposits and the copper posons their meat
 While may be true that occasional shell fish IS caught in the copper bell by tourist mariner 1t m no way ap plies cam n this section, where plants operation and are packing the most wholesome clans put As of fact there copper deposits within hun drcds miles of where this industry in operation, the famous Bonanza and Jumbo mines, from which $2OOOOOO worth of month being produced being l96 miles inland this port If the absurd statements true to the cams the would be true to other fish and drinking water and surely contend that these mpreg mated with copper As matter of fact the Alaska fish IS famous and there is resher purer water than we Tn Cordova using For past the od-tmes Of hls immediate section have enjoyed meal of these cnS nd there is no healthier sturdy people on earth
 It is unfortunate that it is necessary to make any refuta- ton the silly stories circulated for the sole purpose of u ing an infant and promising industry in Alaska. To further stamp defamers of claims local company is having careful anavss of the Corova product made by the chemist of the Washington State Pure Food Board and his report should be conclusive.
