PRESERVING SALMON
Company Organized at Tacoma
for Preserving Salmon.
r
AN ENTIRELY NEW PROCESS
jr ti 1 4 1.
The Same Process as is Used in Norway
Will be Adopted and the Claim is Made
that it will preserve Salmon Better
than the Methods now Used.
The following from the raeltie Fish
erman gives information of the organi
sation of a new company to preserve
Columbia river Salmon at Tacoma. It
din's not state that Columbia river sal
mon will be put up. but they will be call
ed Columbia river salmon, probably for
the reason that they command a bettei
price in the market than Tacoma sal
mon :
The Columbia River Preserving Com
pany U a new company that will manu
facture fisheries product that are new to
the Pacific coast.
Mr. Louis Solomon, the manager of the
company, commenced in a very small way
to put up the very best grade of smoked
salmon in quarter pound tin. Mr. Sol
oman studied this thing, as this article
is imported in great quantities from Nor
way. He found that most of the mis
takes made in canning smoked salmon.
a well as smoked herring, or sardines, is
that the packer uses poor oil, and if they
would use better oil for the same grade
of goods and be more particular always
to have a supply of absolutely fresh fish
and the very best oil obtainable in the
market thy could get a better pries
and there would be a larger market for
the goods. It does not matter how cheap
people get it when they get a poor ar
ticle. They buy it once, maybe twice,
but they eventually get tired of it Take
the same article put up in a first-class
manner and people like it and will buy it
again and are willing to pay a higher
price for it, and in pretty nearly every
ease the packer will make a profit. It
is the object of Mr. Solomon's company,
which is called the Columbia Kiver Pit
serving Company, to put up tlmt-clasi
goods. Their gtsxl have been sent out
on the market up to this time merely a
samples, but order have commenced t
come in. The company has also sen!
out siii pics of fish pudding in one pound
flat and 1-2 pound flat tins. It has been
sampled by many retailers ami individ
nala and all say that it is a superior ar
tide to what is imported in large quan
titles all over the United States from
Europe. PitTercnt grades of salmon are
used for this pudding. It is known as a
healthy food, especially for people with a
weak digestion, as all it contains is fish.
milk and egg. It is also verv convenient
as all tit people have to do is to put the
tins in hoi water lof J" minutes,
open the can and empty them cut amt
they have got a delirious dish. The com
pany lias very good prospects to work
up a pleasant business. They have ap
pointed Mr. Dirk Dlaauw, of Tacoma, a
Jheir sole agent.

Those dainty, practical, d"st-shedding
fabrics so popular this season are just as
much in demand as ever.
So great has been their popularity that
merchants all over the country have been
unable to meet the demand they have created.
We predicted early in the Spring that
such would be the case and governed our
buying accordingly.
The result is that we now have the
Grandest Assortment of New
Mohairs This City Has
Ever Seen
And we would like to have every lady in
Astoria visit our Dry Goods Department this
week and see them. It will do your heart
good.
Prices range from 49c to $J.50 per yard.

Enjoyable Entertainment.
That the people of Astoria appreciate
meritorious entertainment was evi
denced again last evening when the Star
was crowded to the doors. All of the
reserved seats were taken and double the
amount could have lieen sold, but Mana
mr CiTvurtx desires to keen most of
e
the seat for those who prefer to pay
the regular price of 10 cents admission,
although many of them would have pre
ferred a reserved seat If one could have
been obtained. The new policy Is Cer
tainly meeting with popular favor. The
usual program was carried out last even
ing, giving an hour and a half splendid
entertainment, which was enjoyed by all
present. Among the features of the
week's program is the pictured melodies
by Arthur Klwell, the song "What the
Band Plays," being rendered and receiv
ed enthusiastic applause. The entire
program tli week should be seen a It
certainly the best ever given at the
Star.
