GOOD RUN ON &
Tiffing V lachm eT sN ow m
and Will "Greatly Increase Output *
-, Preparation Is Sanitary.
The fishermen have been mak
ing fairly good catches this week
beginning w ith Tuesday when
1600 were turned in.
Wednes
day was better w ith an increase
of 100 or a total o f 1700 fish.
Thursday the catch was material
ly larger and the count reached
over 2600.
Friday, resulted in
another increase when the count
amounted to 2000.
From the time the fish pass a
■an who springs a counter as
each one iw tossed by until they
reach the retort, it is interesting
to watch the process of preparing
them fo r the market.
First the heads, fins, tails are
cut off an d , they are opened,
then thrown into a vat of water.
Taken from this vat they are
thoroughly eleansed and washed
under a pipe of running water.
They are then placed on a table
and with one stroke out by cir
cular knives into chunks.
N ext
these chunks are split lenght-
wise of the fish and are ready to
go in the cans.
.Under the hand packing sys
tem one chinaman w ill fill 80 to
100 cases in a day, each case con
taining 48 cans, making between
4000 and 5000 cans. This week
a filling machine has been in
stalled, and Thursday it was in
wprlung order, but was only
used at h alf speed, Its full
capacity
being
65 cans per
minute, a little better than 1 can
per second.
This would give
about 3900 cans in an hour, and
produce in a days work of 10
hours something like 39000 cans
or 1660 cases i f kept to its full
speed.
By hand the present
crew used could fill about 4250
cases.
Rolling from the filling machine
they are inspected and placed in
an endless carrier which takes
the filled cans through a steam
box which extracts the cold air,
before they reach the capper.
A fte r leaving _ the capping
machine they pass through a
spraying box which washes the
outside o f the can. Then the
cans are placed on trays and
tested in a vat for leaks, and
passed on to the retorts.
I t takes only a few minutes for
a fish after going into the filling
machine to pass in a almost con
tinuous forward movement to
reach the re to rt
The process of taking care of
the fish is very clean and watch
ing the operations will convince
anyone that Wm. Kyle & Sons
canned salmon put on the market
w ith up-to-date and sanitary con
ditions prevailing.

GERMAN FOE
Paris, Sept 23.—General Jof-
fre, the commander in chief of
the French army, is devoting
much attention to the western
wing on the battle line, where
the fighting has been incessant
night and day. ___ .__
The allies since the beginning
of the battle of the Aisne have
pushed back the Germans a dis
tance of nearly 11 miles, forcing
them to seek a further defensive
position on the plateaus and in
the rough country; which, how
ever, offers excellent opportuni
ties for entrenchment

enabled to make a long move

for nine days. The cannonade
starts each day at dawn and
again at 4 o’clock, continuing un

Washington, Sept. 22— Passage
by the Senate today of a substi
tute measure providing $20,000,-
000 to be expended by the Army
Engineers on existing projects
finally ended the long filibuster
against the river

appropriation bill, which original
ly carried $53,OuO,000.
The bill
now goes to the House, ' where it
is expected to precipitate another
vigorous fight.
When

was offered and the measure
passed without a record vote.
Senator Chamberlain, who is
likely to be made a member of
the conference committee, sees
no hope of getting more than a
$20,000,000 bill through a t this
session.
