SALMON 54 YEARS IN TIN.

Canned to keep for a century, Columbia River salmon which was sealed and processed in. an especially-made tin in 1875 was examined recently. No sign of deterioration was detected. The tin covering has resisted corrosion and there is reason to believe that the contents will be as good in 1975 as when freshly packed. J. W. V. Cook, pioneer fish merchant on. the Pacific Coast, packed the salmon at his plant at Clifton, Oregon, fifty-four years ago.
