Notes

From "Report," by Agriculture and Immigration Bureau of Statistics, Washington (State). Bureau of Statistics, Agriculture and Immigration, Washington (State), 1896, pp. 138-139,

... Mr. Joseph O. Cates, of the Cape Ann fish market, Port Townsend, has demonstrated the fact that the California anchovy, which is in its greatest perfection in the waters of Puget Sound, are equal to the best imported French sardines when canned in oil in the French style. A sample of Cates' sardines was sent by him to the international fisheries banquet at the World's Fair in Chicago, where they were placed on the banquet tables and pronounce by the experts to be equal to any of the French sardines with which they were compared. Want of capital has prevented Mr. Cates from going into the business extensively, but he has demonstrated the fact of the excellence of these fish, and deserves credit for being the first man to successfully pack sardines in oil on Puget Sound.
