It is, perhaps, surpris- ing to find, that the mackerel and blue fish did not obtain a place in this table. and that the whale should find himself crowded out by that undesir- able immigrant the German carp. To those of us who associate fishing sim ply with hook and line itais some thing of a. blow to learn that only seventeen per cent of the total value Of the fishery product of this country are captured in this sportsnna nike manner.
