Denmark: The quantities stated are taken almost entirely from north of Horns 

 Reef. In addition to these, considerable quantities are taken near the Faeroes by the 

 fishermen of the Faeroe Isles, but these are not included here. 



Germany: As with haddock, the largest quantities of cod are landed at Geeste- 

 münde, and considerable quantities come from Iceland. In 1902, 2,089,60x3 kg. and in 

 1903, 3,584,100 kg. of Iceland cod were landed at Geestemünde. 



At Bremerhaven, 1,620,600 kg. of Iceland fish were landed in 1902 and again 

 1,855,400 kg. in 1903, but the species are not distinguished. The probability is, however, 

 that they are mostly haddock and cod. 



It appears, that this fishery for cod and haddock at Iceland first began for the 

 German steam trawlers in 1899, at least is first represented in the statistics of that year. 



In the statistical tables for Altona, the hake {Merhiccius vulgaris) is included with 

 the cod from 1896 onwards. The quantities of hake are not, however, considerable. 



The figures given represent the quantities sold at the four principal German markets. 

 The coast and sea fishery of East Friesland is also included. The coastal fishery else- 

 where is not represented, except in so far as the fish taken are sold at the four chief 

 markets. 



Holland: A portion of the cod taken by the Dutch trawlers includes ling, pollack 

 etc. (see Part I, Table XLIV), but the amount of these is relatively small. The figures 

 given represent the principal quantities. The cod landed by liners is in the salted con- 

 dition in barrels. The total weight of the barrel is about 190 kg. and deducting from 

 this the weight of the salt etc., it is estimated, that a barrel is equivalent to 150 kg. 

 fresh cod. 



The cod is also landed in the living and iced condition. For the largest of these, 

 the average weight is taken to be 5-5 kg. (Part I, p. 73). 



These quantities represent the cod landed from the North Sea only. To begin with 

 1901, separate tables have been given in the Dutch "Verslag" showing the quantities 

 brought from Iceland and the Faeroes. These are partly brought by trawlers and partly 

 by liners (from the Faeroes), and the quantities salted and fresh are separately disting-
