APPENDIX K: KYLE 



The quantities from Iceland and the Fasroes represent the haddock sold at the state 

 auction in Ijnnuiden .Whether any quantities of the fish formerly sold at the private auc- 

 tion came from these places, was not made public. 



For 1903, the quantities brought from the Faroes include a small amount, 1375 kg. 

 of salted and dried haddock. In the fresh condition, these must have weighed much 

 more, but this has not been allowed for here. 



In the Dutch official statistics, the quantities of haddock landed are given under a 

 number of divisions according as the fish are living or dead, large, medium or small. 

 The relative proportions of the latter are as shown in the following table.

The proportions for 1896 have been calculated from the quantities landed during six 

 months only, viz. July to December. The proportions have been obtained from the 

 numbers, by means of the factors given for Holland. 



England and Scotland. No distinction is made in the statistics of these coun- 

 tries between large and small haddocks. Quantities taken outside the North Sea, e. g. 

 Iceland and the Fœroe Isles, are also not mentioned, but are probably very considerable. 



6. Statistics of the cod fisheries 



As with the haddock, but more so here, the quantities given in Table XXIII cannot 

 be considered to represent the North Sea cod fishery. Probably one half of the total 

 quantities come from places outside the North Sea. 



It is worthy of remark, that the quantities of cod, taken by all the countries round 

 the North Sea together, are less than one third of the quantities taken by Norway alone 

 (see Table IV, Part I). 



Notes on the Table showing quantities of cod. 



Sweden: Cod is obtained by the Swedish "bank" fishermen in the North Sea, but 

 the quantities are not given in the statistics. 



Norway: For reasons to be given in discussing the statistics showing the total quan- 

 tities, the cod taken in the North Sea by Norway are not included in this table. The 

 quantities landed are very variable; e.g. over 5 million kg. in 1898, and but 300,000kg. 

 in 1902. The chief landing port is Stavanger, so that the main fishery for this part of 

 the Norwegian coast is presumably near the south-west corner of Norway.
