Norte.—Figures given in even 100,000’s are estimates. See text, p. 743, for explanation. 
PORTUGAL 
The statistics of the Portuguese fishery for cod off the eastern coast 
of North America were taken from Estatistica des Pescas Maritimas, 
published by the Comissao Central de Pescarias at Lisbon. They 
cover the years 1896 to 1925, inclusive. We are informed by the 
American consul at Lisbon that the statistics represent ‘‘salted sod, 
not dried; that is, such as is unloaded from the ships at Portuguese 
ports when returning from the banks, to be dried afterwards.”’ In 
converting to the basis of pounds of fresh round cod we have used 
factor 6, as in the French statistics. (Seep. 740.) In addition to the 
total catch, the Portuguese statistics also give the number of vessels, 
tonnage, crew, and number of dories. These figures are shown in 
Table 9.
