CANNED FISHERY PRODUCTS AND BY-PRODUCTS OF THE UNITED 

 STATES AND ALASKA IN 1925 



The fish-canning and by-products industries experienced a most 

 satisfactory year during 1925, producing $80,577,138 worth of canned 

 products and $14,600,198 worth of by-products, a total of $95,177,336. 

 This is the largest total in recent years and is 73 per cent greater 

 than in 1921. Both canned fishery products and the by-products 

 contributed to this increase through substantial gains in the value 

 of canned salmon, sardines, tuna, and oysters and the increased pro- 

 duction of the by-products of the sardine industry in California and 

 the herring industry in Alaska.

CANNED PRODUCTS 



With the exception of shrimps and clams, the value of all of the 

 more important canned products was greater in 1925 than in 1924 

 and a few years previous. Salmon, as usual, was the most important 

 item, constituting 59 per cent of the value; sardines were next with 

 16 per cent, tuna next with 10 per cent, and oysters, shrimp, clams, 

 and other miscellaneous products made up the remaining 15 per cent.
