Pacific Fisherman

Tressler s Marine Products of Commerce is the most comprehensive text in this field. Among the more important journals are Fishing Gazette and Pacific Fisherman which issue important yearbooks. Much information concerning fish and fish products is also found in articles and books on the freezing preservation of foods and on the spoilage of foods. 

As soon as one can of food has been packed, a statistic has been created. At least one third of the questions received at one library associated with the canning industry deal with statistics in one form or another The quantity of No. 2 cans of cream style corn packed in 1951, the size of the cherry crop in Michigan, the per capita consumption of frozen broccoli are typical queries. The variations of these questions can be endless, bringing in factors of price or numbers of employees, etc. The most comprehensive sources of statistical information are the statistical review and yearbook number of the Western Canner and Packer Canned Food Pack Statistics, published by the National Canner s Association the convention number of Quick Frozen Foods the yearbook number of Pacific Fisherman and Canning Trade Almanac, published by Canning Trade.
