Cod, ling, and 
hake cured 
and exported 
in 1888 and 
1889. 
The above returns show a considerable increase against 1888 in 
the quantity of these fish cured dried, as well as in the quantity 
exported to Ireland, the Continent, and places out of Europe. 
There is, however, a small decrease in the quantity pickled. The 
demand from the Spanish markets exhibited some improvement as 
compared with 1888. The exports to that country in dried fish 
have recently been greatly restricted owing to the differential 
duties charged there.
