SMOKED HERRING. 



The smoked herring prepared by the fishermen are shown as such 

 in the general-products table for the State. The American-caught 

 herring smoked by the canners and regular smokers are included in 

 the. statistics relating to the canning and smoked-fish industries, but 

 are shown as fresh herring in the general-products table, that being 

 the condition in which they were sold by the fishermen. It is cus- 

 tomary for many of the fishermen to smoke a part of their own catch, 

 but other classes of smokers utilize both American and Canadian 

 caught herring for smoking purposes.
