To quickly assess the difficulty of the text, read a short excerpt:

They have 14 anal rays, 14 branchiostegals, 24 gill-rakers and about 150 scales in lateral line. In Provincial waters they spawn close to the sea, ascending almost every one of even the minor Coast streams. In the sea they are dark silvery in colour, the fins being black. At the spawning period they become dusky, with lateral lines of black, with more or less grey and red colouring along the sides. The heads of the males undergo the most marked distortion, and the teeth in front become large an...d dog-like, hence the popular name. Until within the last four years, these fish have not been considered of any value. Now they are captured in great numbers by the Japanese, who dry-salt them for export to the Orient, many thousands of tons being exported annually.
They are never canned in the Province.
