The output of Scotch-cured herring in southeastern Alaska in 1926 
was only 1,576,050 pounds, or but one-third of the amount prepared 
in the preceding year; while the production of by-products was 
21,699,635 pounds of meal and 2,857,299 gallons of oil, as against 
15,176,646 pounds of meal or fertilizer and 2,061,398 gallons of oil 
in 1925. 
Of the herring packed in central Alaska, approximately 2,500,000 
pounds of Scotch-cured product were prepared in the Prince William 
Sound district, a hke amount in the Kodiak—Afognak district, and 
shghtly over 9,000,000 pounds in the Cook Inlet region. The Ko- 
diak-A fognak district produced only one-fifth as much as was packed 
there in 1925; Cook Inlet produced about 9,000,000 pounds, as against 
10,000,000 in 1925; and Prince William Sound produced 2,500,000 
pounds, as against over 6,000,000 in 1925.
