COMPARATIVE STATISTICS OF THE FISHERIES OF THE PACIFIC 
COAST STATES 
With the presentation in this report of the 1924 and 1925 statistics, 
there are available four successive sets of annual data on the fisheries 
ofgthe Pacific Coast States. It seems desirable to bring together 
these four years’ statistics for ready reference purposes. This is 
especially desirable because some revisions have been necessary in 
the data for 1922 and 1923, particularly as regards the oysters, clams, 
scallops, and mussels. In the first presentation of the statistics there 
was some confusion in reporting these shellfish, with respect to their 
poundage on a shell-free basis. In the tables given herewith they 
are all reported on the basis of pounds of meats without shells. The 
following statement shows the equivalents used:_ 

§ In all statistical reports of the Bureau of Fisheries it has béen customary to report the oysters, clams, 
scallops, and mussels on the basis of pounds of meats. Through misunderstanding of the State reports, 
the 1923 poundage reported (and to a lesser extent that of 1922), included the shells of some of these mollusks.
