CALIFOR How Salmon are Caught and Canned Contra Coata Gazetle Within the last fow W portation of canned rslmon has he- the ex rally recogui o s of the T e lias froma very an sywhere eateemed aud it was for. distributed throughout wle of northern Burope. Great Germany, France, Russia, Donmark, icoland, Norway aud Holland, and was found - sively in the waters of Canada, Now foundland and England. Years of successiye fishing have exhausted many of the streams, in which they once abounded, of this favorite fish; and the powsonous debris of saw mills and manufactories has totally exter- minated them from their old haunts in Now England streams, In couse- quence of this depletion Estern and European waters, Calitornia and Ory salmon find a ready sale in al- most overy market in tho world. That our supply is fully cqual to the de- mand, has been made possible by the exertions ot the Fish Comwmisaion- ors, who have worked steadily and faithfuily to surround our fish inter eats with a not work of laws, rules and regulations through which unserupn. lous fishermen cannot bresk. It is safe to aflirm that ten years ago there was not more than one cannery on the Pucific Coast where there are now s dozen; and yet the average number of salmon canned by each cannery is ful. ly as great now as then. The bulk of fishermen in this state is compozed of Italinas and Greeks, the Italians being probably in the ma- jority, There aro employed in the salmon fisheries between San Fran- cisco and Sacramento, about 800 boats. Each boat is manned by two fishermen; there are, therefore, 1,600 men employed in catching salmon be- tween the two points named, or in a | the leading indnatri This fish th | Bri ow gives them an airof activity peculiarly | their awn.

Tho eloctrio light has ab tincs scou ed to halt in its pace, Butithas only been gathoring strength for new leap ahoad. 1t is now progressiug by rapid bounds, The inventors and proprie- tors of all the electric-lighting ‘‘sys- tems” have their hands full of orders, both for Kurope and the Ulited States, Their wmachine ehops and laboratories are working to their ut. most capaoity. No electrician with o new lamp complains that he is unap- preciated. There are contracts await- ing for every man who can produce a satisfactory light of any pattern, Both the ‘““Brush” and the “‘United States” company now take part in il- luminating streets and parks of this distance of only 120 miles. Thero are nine canneries along the river and Suisun Bay, and several in San Fran- cisco, employing, on an average, from sixty to oighty men to each establinh- ment. There are, thercfore, no less than 2,500 men employed in taking salmon and canning them for home and foreign consumption, These figures convey some 1dea of the grow- ing importance of this comparatively new industry; but a more definite con- ception of the enormous amount of fish taken yearly from our rivers and bays may be formed by considering the faci that the San Francisco mar- kets, alone, this season, dispose of 2,000 FRESH SALMON DAILY, to eay nothiug of the Sacramento, Stockton, Oakland and San Jose mar- kets, and the sales made throughout the smaller towns ot the interior, The cost of a fishing outfit ranges from $450 to §800. A s blo boat can be purchased for an average price of $260. The ncts in use up the river are comparativelysmall, and cost about $200; those used in the straits will average at least £300 apiece—they are of much geeater depth and con- tain a at deal more material. The thread for their construction costs $1 per pound, and some few nets eontain as high as 300 pounds of netting. The ropes, lines and corks for each net cost nbout §60. The construction of a good nev is worth $180; but fishermen generally save this amount by makiog their own nets. If hired done fishermen pay 20 cents a fathom for the work. The fishermen pursue their vocation at ‘all points on the river and bay during the season. The fish, after remeining a short time in the brackish water below straits, he- gin to ascend. The first catch will be made in the straits; the following day.) the fish will have reached Collinsville, and the next diy they may he found at Rio Vista. In this manner they ascend, gradually lessening their epeed the further up they go. The winter run commences in January, and consists of a variety of salmon much longer and thinner than those caught in tho fall. In February the number of fish to be found aro but limited, ‘T'he spring run, which com- mences in March, is compored of a variety much thicker than the fish of the preceding run. They ascond in limited quantities only, THE FALL RUN Is the largest, and commences in Au- gust. Teose salmon, known as the hook or hawk-noeed salmon, ere the very largest variety. The run con- tinues for six weeks, the principal body going up in September. The average catch varies accoxding to the seazon, Last geagon the salmon as- cended in such numerous quantities that the fishermen could have caught each day per boat, for a period of sev- eral weeks, over 100 fish. But the markets were glutted, and it was im- possible to dispose of that number, they contented themselves with catch- ing merely enough to supply the de mand, ‘Lhis season the average daily catch per boat does not exceed 20 fish, and the supply 18 not suflicient to keop the canueries runmng at their f Tho supply, of course, rding to the supply and de- mand. The cannories atartod at Mar- tinez and Benicin, by creating s more extengive demand, have doubtless in- fluenced prices this scason to some ex- city under the agreement just made by the gas commission. 'The *‘Brush” system will continue to operate in up per Broadway, Madison and Union squares and the various streets now occupied by it. The **United States” will have charge of the Battery, City hall and Washington parks. This ex- tension of the area of outdoor electric lights is the result of the most pa- tient and seaching tests. The fact is at last proved beyond a question thal elcctrici y is much cheaper than gas for the amount of light furnished. ' It is aleo ehown that the brighter light is a protection agaiust nocturnal crimes and minor offences, such as are easily committed in the half-shade of gas lights. The steadiness and permanency of the electric light in all weathers are also completely demonstrated. For out- door purposes 1ta superiority is there- fore an established fact it now ag merely 2 queation of time when electricity shall illuminate the wharves and river fronts and then be gradually extended all over the metropolis, England is not behind the United States in the encouragemeut aud de- velopment of the electric light. The eleetrical exhibition ia now the most attractive show of London, The dis- play of arc aud loop hights of all vari eties is the themo of newspaper praise which seems ¢ven extravagant, Ruad- ing the London journals one would think the day of pgas over and the electric era in- augurated beyond a dispute. The progress made since a similar ex- position was held in Paris, a yearogo, 18 astounding. If a single year iltakes such a record of advance, what may the next decade mot do? The best evidence of British enthusiasm on the subject is the forraation of numerous limited stock companies to eupply the light to every part of the United Kingdom, Every system friends and promofers among cipital- ists and scientific men. All the com- par ra ready to undertuke the lighting of streets and ko and the performance of all work now done on land by stearn, the d: of rail trains included, They to set up hghting stations wherover subeeribers can bo found to guarantee custom of only £600 a year. Wo are still in the dark about the actual cost of the electric light under all conditione. But testimony as to its comparative cheapness is fash ac- cumulating in England, and is baving its due effect in creating a general public demand for the light. Scraps of information like this are officialiy given out: - That, at South Kensing- ton museum, with an outlay of less than 81,000 for machinery and plant for 16 “Brush” lights of 2,000 candle power each, after deducting all ex- penses, coal aud wages, the saving over gus in nine months was $4206—a margin of profit sufticie t to cover 1n- | Robes, Dusters We regard | ¢ hasits | Gy D.

In tent. Last yenr the average price per Lish was but 35 cents, This year the prico has been as high as 65 cents, owing to the ecarceness of salmon and the competition of the canneries; but a compromise, resulting in an ¢qual disiribution of fish to the several can- neries, has reduced the price to 40 cente.

The grounds up the Sacramento river are aleo exteusive, and thousands of salmon are caught there daily during the season, The fishermen are, as a class, brave men, to whom an almost constant open-air life, and the fresh, salt beeezo of the sea, have imparted ruddy countenance and a good cir- culation.
