10 THE EEPOET UPON No. 14 



D. McDonald^ Esq.^ 



Deputy Minister of Game and Fisheries, 

 Toronto, Ont. 



Deae Sir^ — I have pleasure in handing you herewith a financial report of 

 the Sales Branch for the fiscal year ending October 31st, 1920, by which you will 

 note that there has been a surplus of cash received over expenditures amounting 

 to $100,984.94. 



The total fish purchased for the fiscal year amounts to 2,268,601 lbs., as against 

 3,156,902 lbs. of the previous year and the municipalities supplied during the 

 past year being 94, with 214 dealers, against 106 municipalities and 218 dealers 

 for the previous year. The reduction in production is accounted for by the restric- 

 tions placed on the source of supply, as no part of the licensed fishermen's catch 

 was taken, and all operations were confined to contracts placed direct with fisher- 

 men at Lakes Nipissing and Nipigon, aside from a small percentage of fish taken 

 in other waters during the spawning operations. 



All of which is respectfully submitted. 



Yours truly, 



(Sgd.) Geo. H. Eapsey, 



Superintendent.
