FISHERY INDUSTRIES OF THE UNITED STATES, 1936 33 
so that the general health of the Nation will be conserved. Fish- 
cookery demonstrations should aid materially in educating consumers 
as to the wholesomeness of fishery products. 
Some of the educational services rendered are discussed or referred 
to in previous paragraphs of this report. In brief, this work has 
covered the fields of commercial preserving of fishery products, fish 
cookery in the home, and the cooperative marketing of aquatic 
products. 
Another phase of this service has consisted in answering thousands 
of letters directed to the Bureau on fishery subjects, and in supplying 
information to persons who have called at the Bureau, personally. 
Many of the latter came from foreign lands to seek fishery information 
which might be useful in the conduct of the industry in their native 
country.
