Table XIII states the relations of the different modes of fishing- 

 during the last five years. Compared with last year, net-fishing has 

 diminished and line-fishing increased, a result of the poorer net-fish-

Table XIV shows the ratio for the different districts. In five years 

 the number of netters has varied as follows : 



In South Helgeland, between 41 and 55 per cent., or 14 per cent. 



In North Helgeland, between 77 and 89 per cent., or 12 ])er cent. 



In Salteu, between 51 and 03 per cent., or 12 per cent. 



In Loffoden and Vesteraalen, between 20 and 44 per cent., or 24 per 

 cent. 



In Senjen and Tromso, between 44 and 57 per cent., or 13 per cent.

 and in the last two it fell off. By next year it will probably increase
