For the statistics of the cod catch of Canada we have drawn upon 
the annual reports of fisheries statistics of Canada, published by the 
Canada Dominion Bureau of Statistics, Fisheries Division. 
The 
total catch of fresh round cod is given for the years 1910 to 1926. 
For the years 1869 to 1909 statistics are given on the quantities of 
cod as marketed. From 1903 to 1909 two items appear—‘‘dried”’ 
and ‘‘fresh or green.’”’ In previous years only dried cod appear in 
the statistics. In converting these figures to the basis of iresh round 
cod we have used a factor of 1 for fresh, 2 for green salted, and 3 for 
dried. Inasmuch as the fresh and green salted are shown together 
it was necessary to calculate an average conversion factor for this 
item. This was done by using the four fiscal years, beginning with 
1910-11, in which both cod caught and landed and cod marketed 
were given. The method of calculation is shown in Table 5 and 
results appear to correspond very closely with the assumed factors. 
The resulting totals are shown in Tables 6 and 7.
