Apalachicola Times: The impression pre-
walls Rmsng a great many that the oyster
is a slow grower, and many who claim to
be exper share this opinion. The Times
is not prepared to dispute with these
parties, but we do know that Apalachicola
bay oysters are very prolific growers, being
marketable in few months after spawn.
Any of eur oystermen will tell you that
Porter's bar was raked clean OF marketable
oysters a few winters back; the next winter
this bar was not disturbed, but on the next
season most of the oysters marketed in
Apalachicola were brought from this bar.
The same is true Of st. Vincent's and other
bars in the bay. The repeated longing of
the beds cause the oysters TO multiply very
rapidly, too-nuca more so than If they
are not tenged. The oyster, like the vege-
table, needs stirring up to make him grow.
With the immense beds of oysters in Apal-
achicola bay known to be in existence, new
beds are beiFg continually discovered. The
crop, therefore, is inexhau .tisie, anu there
is not point on the gulf coast that affords
the same opportunities fer the investment
OF money In canneTies.
