STATISTICS OF THE FISHERIES BY COUNTIES. 



[n comparing- the returns by counties for 1901 with those for 1898 

 and preA'ious years, a hirg-e decrea.se in the fisheries of Queens County 

 is apparent. This is due to the formation of a new countj^, Nassau, 

 within the former limits of Queens County, and Queens and Nassau 

 counties combined now represent the Queens County of previous 

 years. Also there appears an extension of the fisheries of New York 

 County and a corresponding- decrease in Westchester Countv, owing- to 

 a change in the l)oundary lines. 



The extent of the fisheries in each county of New York in 1901 is 

 shown in detail in the following- tables:
