the control of the Governor of the governmental district of Gothenburg and Bohus. For the 

 encouragement of fisheries the government for some years gave premiums to sea-going fishing- 

 smacks from the province of Bohus, and in the last few years it has made effective attempts 

 to introduce drift-net fishing in the herring-fishery off" the Bohus coast, as well as in the 

 Gulf of Bothnia. Through the liberality of the Parliament it has also been possible of late 

 years to contribute considerable sums for the construction of several ports for the fishing 

 trade. Besides this, the Koyal Agricultural Societies of the different governmental districts 

 contribute from their funds to the expenses of promoting the fishery interests of their 

 respective districts. In 1869 a company was established, with the aid of the Koyal Agricul- 

 tural Society of that district, for insuring fishing vessels and gear for the governmental district 

 of Gothenburg and Bohus ; and this company still carries on its operations.
