  Although 
  yet 
  young 
  in 
  years 
  the 
  commercial 
  fisheries 
  of 
  the 
  west 
  

   coast 
  are 
  old 
  enough 
  for 
  a 
  few 
  interesting 
  comparative 
  statistics. 
  The 
  

   growth 
  of 
  the 
  business 
  so 
  far 
  as 
  relates 
  to 
  the 
  direct 
  food-lisheries 
  has 
  

   steadily 
  increased 
  in 
  capital 
  invested, 
  persons 
  employed, 
  and 
  amount 
  

   and 
  value 
  of 
  products.
