EGG COLLECTIONS 



In spite of the greater output of fish, tliere was a sliglit decline 

 in the egg collections for the year. The total was 7,883,670,160, a 

 recession of 67,841,170 from the figures of last 3'ear. This shortage 

 is more than accounted for in the smaller number of flounder eggs — 

 one of the marine fishes of lesser importance. This decline is partly 

 offset by a more than 100 per cent increase in shad-egg collections 

 and by substantial gains among the commercially important lake 

 trout and pike perch. Collections of whitefish and cisco eggs in the 

 Great Lakes again showed a decline, however, traceable in part to 

 unfavorable weather conditions during the spawning season. An 

 increase of almost 10,000,000 eggs was recorded by the resumption 

 of striped-bass hatching operations in Nortli Carolina. The total 

 collections of cod, haddock, and winter-flounder eggs exceeded the 

 figures of last year. The tabulation below gives the statistical 

 details of the egg collections. It may be added that the only eggs 

 purchased at the present time are those of the brook trout, and the 

 number is negligible. Plans are being made for developments that 

 will make it unnecessary to purchase any eggs in the near future.
