1925. In that year the catch vas :i4 million pounds and 1926. 47 million pound , declining lo 4'2 million pounds m 1927. and 31 million pounds m 1923. Thus we are able, to observe the rise and fall of the catch from two rich year classes. Evidently unless another rich year da*, appears, the catch will continue downward to the forty year level between 1885 and 1925. Fortunately the 1927 year class appears to have been good but just how rich it is too early to estimate. In 1928. it contributed over 1.600.000 pounds of “tinker’’ sigo ’mackerel and this year's catch will reveal more definitely how abundant the 1927 brood is. This year the 1927 brood will bo 2-years-old. weighing about one pound, whereas the 1923 fish will weigh two pounds or more. < ivil War Veterans Dwindle I nihil I'n MADISON.
