HERRING IS TO BE A BIG
 ASSET OF THE NORTHLAND

While the salmon pack of Alaska last year added .S5l 100000 to the commerce that passed through Seattle, officials of the Untted States bureau of fisheries are confident that within a few years the canning and picking of herring will equal, if not exceed, the value of the salmon canned last season.
 Practically the entire coast of Alas ka is suitable for herring fisheries. In every inlet and bay there are enor- nous herring schools, food resource that has so far been left virtually un- touched. Although herring fishing has been carried out on a small scale by natives and some white men for many years, most of whom put up few fish for their own use, no real effort to market this product was made until last year, when the United States bu- reau of fisheries sent number of ex- perts into the country to teach the people how to pack these fish for the market. The method used is known. as the Scotch cure.
 An excess of 40,000 barrels of her ring were put up and sent to New York, where they sold at an average price of from SIS to $20 a barrel. The gross output had q value of approxi- mately $S0,OO0. The Alaska herring were pronounced by experts to be the equal of any fish of similar variety in the world, and much better than the widely advertised Norwegian product. Bureau officials are highly gratified at the results, and are confident that the business can be extended to enor- nous proportions if it is properly han dled and exploited. Much, it is said, depends upon proper packing.
 It is the intention of the bureau to send additional experts into the terri tory this summer to extend the busi- mess and to inaugurate a system ot inspection and branding which will give the purchaser in the Eastern markets an assurance that the con
 tents of the barrels have been proper ly packed. An appropriation of $25, 900

FACTS ABOUT SEWARD

Seward is situated on Resurrection Bay, midway of the coast line of the Gulf of Alaska ana LOU mes lro route of the Pacific steamers to the Orient.
 The various trade routes of the North Pacific Ocean and all the roads and highways and trails and mountain passes from the interior converge at this point much as nature had anticipated the need of gateway through which the trade and travel of great region might find convenient passage.
 The deep perfectly protected harbor presents an ob long surface embracing forty square miles, upon which any ship that floats may sail in safety at any time, and which in appearance suggests nothing so much as beaut full inland lake,
 The mainland and shores of Resurrection supply am pie space and perfect topography for the building ot city of whatever extent future needs may develops and this cir cumstance added to its natural position as gateway to the interior and the freedom from ice at all seasons 0 the harb0r and adjacent waters lead the government to select this port as the terminal for the railroad The un limited coal and oil and mineral resources Of Alaska W flow through this port to enter the commerce ot the Wor and in return will come the supplies for distribution over territory greater in extent than many state combined thus making it the great port of the North Pacific or the NEW YORK OF ALASKA.
