Halibut Landings Halibut landings at the port of Prince Rupert for the 1930 season up to and Including June 6 totalled 8,432,100 pounds as compared with 10,891,250 pounds at a similar adte last year. The total for Canadian landings was 2,741,300 pounds as acalnst 3.112.550 pounds and for American, 5,710,800 pounds as com pared with 7,781,700 pounds. The two weeks lost at the first of the season, together with the fact that unfavorable weather has prevailed a good deal of the time during the past spring on the fishing grounds are the two principal factors con tributing to this year's decrease In landlnes. It Is not expected that the present season will be able to come up to last year In volume of landings, particularly In view of the fact that the season may terminate this year on November 1 or two weeks earlier than last year. During the week, up to yesterday landings totalled 751,300 pounds of which 233,300 pounds was from Ca nadian boats and 518,000 pounds from American. The price situation during the week was. Just about average. The high bid for Canadian fish was 12.1c and 6c which the Atll received for 7,000 pounds and the low 10.4c and 6c paid the W. T. for 4,500 pounds. The top price for American halibut was 13.5c and 7c which the OnaW and Thor received for catches of ,10,500 and 5,000 pounds respectively, and the.. low, 10.4c and 6c pad the Venture for 24,000 pounds. j An' interesting ' announcement was made by the B.
