CONCLUSIONS 
1 . In Prince William Sound the date at which the herring reach a condition 
suitable for packing or commence to be rather thin for packing in any certain locality 
will vary at least two weeks in different years. 
2. There may be a considerable difference in the condition attained in different 
localities in Prince William Sound by the same date. 
3. The maximum condition attained will probably vary considerably from year 
to year.
