Results of an investigation into the different kinds of bait used by fihsermen at the Atlantic coast will be found in the 1906-10 volumes; while the 1917 volume contains a long, illustrated report on the investigations of the herds of sea- lions frequenting the Pacific coast of Canada, a rather controversial subject, as the fishermen claim that much damage to the fisheries (particularly to the salmon) is done by these seals. Fishes and fisheries in a stricter sense are of course treated in a number of articles and reports. Thus the 1911-14 volume contains a long account of the freshwater fishes of Georgian Bay, Ont., illustrated by plates; while the freshwater and marine fishes* of Prince Edward Island are recorded in the 1906-10 volume. In the 1917 volume an annotated lict of the fishes ofund in the vicinity of Magdalen Islands and the Nova Scotia coast opposite will be found. Treatises dealing with the appearance, life- history, and economic value of certain fishes are well represented. Thus, besides a description of a new Cottoid (sculpin) from Departure Bay, , in the 1916-10 volume, the Pacific Halibut- fisheries are traeted in the 1914-15 volume; and the biology, etc., of the various kinds 'Spring-, Coho-, Sockeye-, Dog-, Humpback-) of Salmon occurring in British Columbia will be found ni four articles in the 1915-16, 1917, 1918-20 volumes. Of fishes occurring at the Atlantic coast of Canada, the utilization of the Selachians (dog-fish, etct.
