Whaling station

Clayoquot, Vancouver Island, [19--]

Photographer: Dr. R.W. Large

Whaling station west coast of Vancouver Island - south of Clayoquot. "The building with the canvas end, is where the whale is drawn up a slip from the sea & cut up before being boiled down. No waste - oil used for soap & cod liver oil! The flesh & bones made into fertilizer. Now experimenting with salting some of the meat as salt beef! Canning it also & it tastes very good." -- note on back of photograph.
