Perhaps it is not genérily known that what ing has come to form an important part of the fishing industry of Japan. Along the east and south-west coast are a number of whaling stations which, for ten months in the year send forth a fleet of the deep. The most sou therly station, is that of Hoseshinis, in the. province of Hyngs, on the west coast of Kyu- shu, North of this, at Tottori, near the on traace to the Bungo Channel, is another station, tato ose at Shimizu, in the month west, and the
oʻher at Kabura,jin}Awa. At Orbima, la. Kii—'i that is to say, in the most southerly portion of the main island is a large and important station, while at Mishima, to the north-west, is another. The next station is separated from its neighbour by a longer interval, being: situated fr Choshi, at the extreme end of the large pen insula to the west of Tokyo, in the province of Shimosa. The whaling station on the feländ of Kiukuzao, to the north-west of Sendai, is the most northerly one at present; but another station is about to be established on the coast still further worth. The island of Tsushima, between Japan and Koros, is also used as a whaling centre. On the east coast of Korea at Elisan in the south, and at a place near Wonsan in the north, are two large stalious.
Winale-catching are regular industry was only introduced into Japan about five years age. For several years Norwegian whaling leamers from Korea had put in at Nagasaki to dispose of their catch, and it was the sight of these that induced some enterprising Japanese to engage a number of Norwegians to introduce whaling into Japan. A number of Japanese companies have been sigṛted, and now a fiest of twenty-eight vessels is engaged in harpoon. ing whales all round the coast. Most of these Fieamers were purchased from Norwegian owners in Newfoundland, as the whites, which were formerly plentiful in those seas, have now been almost all exterminated. Indeed, at the rate the Japinėse are going, it is probable
