WHALING DAYS ARE OVER.
a Once Thriving Industry That Has
Nearly Vanished.

At the outbreak Of the American Rev.
Olution aud for a period OF seventy Eve
yours following the conclusion Of TINT
struggle whaling was the most imlDr
tant branch of the American fisheries
From 500 to 700 vessels sought whales
iii all the oceans and seas of the world
and in one year New Bedford alone
sent out 300 vessels, whose cargoes Of
bone and oil We're the basis Of the In
dustria life Of the city.
The pursuit OF sperm whales reached
its climax in 1887. when oil valued at
nearly 81. 5GO. GEO was brought iii, most
liz from the south Pacific. The height
of the industry was In 1916, when TO-
COO persons derived their support from
whales and 100 vessels. valued at ss21,-
Co., coo, were engaged.
For more than fifty years the fishery
has been declining, and in numerous
ports that once derived most OF their
wealth from the industry there have
for long time existed only memories
Of former greatness. For number OF
years the sperm. right and bow head
whales that supported the fishery in
early years have been very scarce and
their pursuit has been improbable,
and the present Importance of the
whale fishery. amounting in value to
less than 2 per cent Of the American
fisheries, depends on the taking from
shore stations of species Of whales that
formerly We're for the most part neg
leeted
The glory of the whale fishery has
departed forever. and the commercial
IT, not the biological extinction OF all
kinds Of whales is proceeding rapidly,
undeterred and unlamented by the
principal maritime powers.-Hugh NJ.
