Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from The British Fish Trade Few things are more remarkable in modern politics than the care which is almost everywhere taken to illustrate, by statistics I the science of government. In the United Kingdom elaborate arrangements are made with this object. Public officers are employed in enumerating the flocks and herds; in recording the crops which are sown; and in counting every bale of goods which is either imported into, or exported from, the country. The writer, who desires to procure statistical information on almost any subject connected with the growth, the health, the con' dition, or the industry of the people, is able to obtain it in an authoritative form, and in a convenient and cheap volume. The success which the Statistical Abstracts have achieved has induced their authors to extend their scope. The Statis tical Abstract of the United Kingdom has been supplemented by statistical abstracts for the Colonies, for India, and for even foreign countries. A vast mass of information of almost immeasurable value has in this way been collected, and the student or the inquirer is able to obtain facts on almost every subject to which either his studies or his investigations may be directed.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Fish Transport and Fish Markets You will probably ask me to express some opinion whether, under these circumstances, an effort Should be made to improve Billingsgate, or whether, on the contrary, the market should be at once swept away or moved to some other spot in the metropolis. Now on that point I am not prepared to state an opinion. It does not seem to me to be one for me to pronounce a positive opinion about. The question is one mainly of expense, and must be decided by the Corporation of the City of London, who are the owners of the market. If the Corporation are prepared to incur the great expense which is involved in doubling the area of this market as it stands, and in widening Thames Street from end to end, then I should say by all means leave Billingsgate where it is, for the very sufficient reason that trade is a conservative thing, and it is very difficult to move a trade from any spot where you find it flourishing. But if, on the contrary, the Corporation of the City of London are not prepared to incur this expendi ture, then the sooner they make up their minds to move the market to some suitable place on the river-side the better it will be for the fish trade, and the better for the public also. These are really all the remarks I have to make on this portion of the subject. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from British Fresh Water Fishes It only remains for me to express my thanks to those gentlemen who have rendered me assistance in procuring specimens, or otherwise helping me. I must especially thank Dr. A. Gunther, of the British Museum - the highest living ichthyological authority* - for permission to make use of the Plates in T lze Proceedings of me Zoological Socz'efy of London, (1862, 1863, illustrating his papers on the British species of Charr; I have also to thank the Council of that Society for granting me the same permission. I have been fortunate enough to see and handle all the British Charrs, and specimens of all the species have been before the artist engaged in this work, but the Plates above named were found most useful in giving the characteristic colouration which specimens some days out of the water, or specimens preserved in spirits, almost invariably lose. I have also, through the kindness of Dr. Gunther, had opportunities of examining specimens of various fish in the British Museum; and the artist has been able to take figures of some species which are either rare, or which I failed to procure for myself.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from The British Trade Book The conclusion to be drawn from J evons' facts would seem a pretty Obvious one had it not taken so long to be realised. It is that no argument can stand which does not take account of the cycle of trade. NO comparison of isolated years, no comparison of short consecutive periods can be relied upon to give properly comparable data. And if averages are to be used at all, the least that must be demanded are decennial averages. By averaging each year with at least nine others, allowance will be made for the usual number of fat and lean seasons; and by a series of decennial averages taken annually, it will be possible to indicate with accuracy the general trend of phenomena as distinguished from the oscillations of particular years.

Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Fisheries and Fishery Industries of the United States It is now nearly four hundred years Since these grounds were first fished upon by Europeans, and their resources are still unfailing; but the fishing interests have been mainly transferred to the New World, France alone of European countries having continued to send fishing vessels across the Atlantic down to 1880. Since then, however, the Portuguese have begun to exhibit some activity in connection with the cod fishery of the Grand Bank, and in the Spring and sum mer of 1885 bought several New England fishing schooners and fitted out others from home ports. Their voyages proving generally successful, they have added more vessels to their fishing fleet during the latter part of this year, and it is quite possible that, in the course of a few seasons.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Fisheries of the North Sea Reader understand the ramifications of a business which is not easily understood by the interested spectator for conditions are constantly changing, and there is no resemblance between our modern methods of fishing and those in vogue thirty years ago. In this account there is necessarily much that will not be new to those who are engaged in the industry but SO great are the possibilities and opportunities for future development, and so pressing is the need for taking full advantage Of our magnificent heritage of the sea, that the public ought to be better informed, or many grave mistakes will be made. Already several pronounced politicians have inaugurated a body called the Empire Resources Development Committee. These men would like to see the State control the industry, with a view to making it a Government monopoly and diverting the profits into the Treasury. Anyone who understands the industry knows this to be both impracticable and unjust. The seas do not belong to the British Empire any more than they do to Germany or Norway.

Download or read book Sea Fisheries written by Marcel Adolphe Herubel and published by . This book was released on 2015-08-05 with total page 374 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Sea Fisheries: Their Treasures and Toilers The English press has given my book a very flattering welcome, and I am glad to seize an opportunity of expressing my gratitude; especially would I thank Mr. Stephen Reynolds, who stated, in the Daily News, his encouraging opinion that an English translation was called for. Finally I have to thank Mr. Fisher Unwin, who has taken the initiative in offering this translation to the English public. It is true that I wrote for my compatriots; wishing to advise them as to the development of ocean fisheries, to put them on guard against their mistakes, and to do my best to prepare a better future for them. But the model which I have held before their eyes, the country I advise them to imitate, is Great Britain. I will even say that it is enough to understand the history and the economy of the English fisheries in order to formulate the general rules of the industry. Such is the truth I have tried to establish contained in a few lines; and in this light I would put before our friends across the Channel a book which was in fact written for them as well as for my countrymen. The English have always had the faculty of uniting tradition and progress; with them the things of yesterday and the things of to-day are not in perpetual conflict.
