| Notes | The #2 issue of Pacific Fisherman is the Yearbook issue. The Burke Packing Company had plants up and down the Oregon Coast packing mild cured salmon, including plants on the Siletz, Yaquina and Umpqua Rivers. Statistics are in units of tierces (about 800 pounds) and are lumped in with statistics for Bay City, Cushman and Pacific City. Statistics are also given for the Newport Fish Co. on Yaquina Bay and the Morris Beck company at Florence, as well as for other coastal sites. These are the only canning statistics found for the Oregon Coast in 1928. |
