The report for the year ending with March 31, 1916, of themazine branch of the Department of Marias and Fisheries of Canada indicates that, with other interests, those connected with shipowning suffered somewhat during the early war period. The number of registers + vessels at the end of 1914 was 8,772 of 9322 tons and at the end of 1975ft was 8,757 of 929,312 tons In the latter year, the average tonnage per reusel was 106. The figure is small from a variety of cause." The official list of shipping in Conadsincludes practically avery craft of grester size than a skiff. Some are credited with one ton only; a me run into the th-us- ands, again, in New Brunswick and Nova Scotia, the fishing industry calls for the services of a goodly number of sm 1l sailing vessels running from 30 to 100 tons register. Ontario is the large vessel-owning proviace, chiefly because of the construct- ion and purchase of steamships; for the service of the Great Lakes. 1ts record fell off last year, however, the 38 craft added to the register of its

The lowest figures are noted ia 1906, when 7,512 vessels of 654,179 tons were recorded. Btween the two years mentioned one of the great revolutions in the ship- builder's craft took place owing to the change from wood to steal." There was no steel-producing. industry ia Canada on a scale large enough to make that a factor in the industry in its new phase, therefore, as the Tyne-built tramp steamer replaced the wooden wind-jammer, the amount of shipping owned or registered there went down.

helped to bring about a revival. Steamships for the service were build in Great Britain, came with cargoes to Montreal. where they were cut in two, floated up the Canals to Lake Ontario or Lake Erie and there rejoined and started in the carrying business. Ship building plants at Toronto and on the Georgian Bay also turned out steam vessels' from 2,000 to 7,000 tone gross measurement. Most of the steel has had to be import ed, not much more than the assembling being done in Canada. There is now, however, a pos- sibility, even a probability, that steel ships for ocean as well as inland service will be regularlyy built in Canada. The steel works, especially in Nova Scotia, are being steadily developed, and judging by what they accomplish- ed during the past two JOSIS, they will have no difficulty in the near future in providing the material for modern ship, con struction.
