Smaller quantities were dry-salted, kippered and prepared in other ways for the market. In their efforts to stabilize the industry and prevent loss through waste, the operators last year pro- duced 2,283,882 pounds of fertilizer and 55,883 gallons of oil from the plants specially constructed to handle byproducts. Herring Fisheries Improve “Improved conditions in the her- ring industry,” said the report, “were evident in nearly ecvery sec- tion with the exception of the Cook Inlet district. Herring of a size suitable for curing appeared in fair numbers in the principal fishing districts. The western district con- tinued to lead in the output of «cotch-cured herring. The quan- tity of herring products for the of these products was approximate- ly 30 per cent less. ‘and each year enormous quantitics of herring are caught-for this pur- |pose. In 1930, 9296240 pounds were used as bait, an increase of for 1929.” | The production of the halibut | fisheries was affected by the de- ;pres‘_cd condition of the market. | Therc was a heavy carry-over from 1929 and prices remained low 'throughout the year. Fishermen ;made little if any profit. | There was a decline in the cod fishery and in the whaling indus- try. In fact the clam industry was |the only branch not adversely af- | fected. It showed increased out- put and increased value, 21 and 19 per cent respectively, over 1929. | There was a small increase in the quantity of shrimp packed but a ! slight loss in value. The output of crab meat and crabs in the shell also decreased. | Increasing production of other |edible fish, including trout, sable | fish, smelt, flounders, lingcod and |rockcod was noted. Seal Herds Rehabilitated “The rehabilitai:on of the seal herds is an outstanding achieve- |that may be derived from proj methods of control and utilizath of the surplus,” declared Gov. Parks. The Federal | took over the herds in 1910. Ex- | ploited by private interests and hunted on the high seas by sealers of many nations, they had been | decimated and numbered approxi- ‘ma:,ely 132,000 when Uncle Sam {assumed their guardianship. The census taken in 1930 showed the herds had increased in number to 11,045,101 on the Pribilof Islands, {and thousands of pelts have been taken and sold in the world mar- kets. In 1930, 42,500 skins were taken from the rookeries on St. Paul and St. George Islands, the largest take of any year since the Government took over the herds. During the year a total of 41516 skins were sold at public auction for a gross price of $821,767. In addition, in the season 1930-31, 889 blue and 26 white fox skins were taken on the islands, and in the calendar year 1930, 745 blues and 32 whites, taken in 1929, were sold for $27,717, mak- ing the total returns from the Islands $849,484. Revcnuies Reach $5,500,000 Since 1918, revenues from the herds deposited in the Federal treasury have exceeded $5,500,000; and seme $3,000,000 have been ex< panded in administration and im< provements. Most of the work is done by natlve residents under direction of & white staff. Modern villages Wwith concrete dwellings, hospitals, machiné shops, warehous- ©3, salt houses, 8¢hool houses, r and other conveniences have been built by the Government. ‘Virtually all of the natives are wards Of the Government and are provided’ with food, clothing, shel tér, medical ald and educational facilities in return for their ser- vices. Tn addition they are paid 75 cents for each seal skin and $§ for each fox skin taken.
