Notes | Lists canning / packing factories and amounts canned. Gives names of people fined for violating fish and game laws. Interesting account of building a hatchery on Knowles Creek, a tributary of the Siuslaw River, and waiting for Chinook to come in so their eggs could be harvested. "But no fish made their appearance. Investigation showed that the fishermen lower down the stream were violating the law by stretching their nets clear across the river and catching every fish that entered." |
