Note 1. — No vessel was fitted out for curing at sea during the year. 



2. — The above figures represent the quantities pickled " bungpacked," i.e. as finally packed- 

 The corresponding equivalents in the " seastick " state, i.e. before the herrings have '* pined " or 

 settled down in the barrels, will be found in Appendix D. — No II. 



3. — In addition to the above, 10,341 barrels of Norwegian herrings were converted into reds, 

 53 into bloaters, and 64 into kippers, practically all on the East Coast.
