Siba, Tokyo. The Imperial Japanese Govern- 

 ment has donated 6,500 yen a year since 1893 to 

 train young men for organizing and managing 

 the fishery industries of Japan, but at the time 

 of its transfer from the society to the Government, 

 in 1897, the investigating and the experimental 

 works pertaining to the fishery industries were 

 added to its original scope, and the organization 

 of the present Institute was founded on the 22nd 

 of March. In 1902 new buildings were erected at 

 Ettyiizima, Hukagawa, near the mouth of Sumida 

 River, and the Institute removed there in Sep- 

 tember. The Institute was formerly composed 

 of the three departments, i.e., educational, 

 experimental, and marine investigation, but was 

 changed into an educational organ pure and simple 

 at the time of reorganization in 1929. 



Location: 8 Ettyflzima, Hukagawa, Tokyo. 



Organization to which attached: The Institute is 

 under the supervision of Minister of Agriculture 

 and Forestry. 



Purposes: The educational object of the Institute 

 is to give lessons in science and art of the fisheries 

 and to study the profound theories on them, along 

 with formation of character. 



Scope of activities: Fishing, technology of fisheries, 

 pisci-culture, physics and chemistry, mechanics, 

 oceanography, zoology and botany, and bac- 

 teriology, economics and laws.
