A it-aillrn of the catch in Kings its the ;act that landings of cod. ihzike and hndnock were very sun- staiitially greater in 1052 than lnj 1951. This in turn is attributed to; the activities of draggers lllicler the new policy nf fl:hCrlPs assist-l ,ance to this Ivpe of fishing crzlft. The catch was further int-reascdl owing to mole concentration on. long-linn methods. This new cle-' velopmciit was mostly ccntralizcdi around the port of Sollris. The departmental figures alsol showed a huge crease in thei volume of qllahaiigs taken in ,King's County in 1952. The 1952' harvest of quahnuizs was valued at 1537.165 compared to the 1951 and- cd value of these molluscs of S4,- 505. Last. year more cod was landed in Kings than in both Prince and Queens put together, the King's cod catch being valued at 052,466. Virtually the entire catch of had- dock was taken in waters around King's County, that. area showing '9. landed value of 352,100 for had- Idoi-lc compared to 5906 for Queen": and zero for Prince. Fishing ex- perts have not quite fully explain- led this immense discrepancy in lfavnr of King's, except by the reason of greater haddock fishing activity. , As usual.
