In France muddy bottoms, which are

There Is, no doubt that artificial cult
walton like that of France could be
adapted to American conditions. But
the proposition to introduce the French
system in this country has always met
with commercial obstacle. With the
enormous natural supply to meet al
ways any demand. with the compare
lively extravagant cost of labor in this
country, would oyster culture pay? The
answer has always been that the
foreign system Of culture would not
pay in the United States: that only
the limited industry which has been
established along the New England
coast could be made profitable as yet.
When the oyster beds of the Chesa-
peake show signs of exhaustion there
may be profit in bringing UP oysters

demands which are made NV p;tts-
burg, Chicago, Cincinnati. Cleveland

apolis, and scores of cities with lass
pretentious numerical popu1ation
have overtaxed the productive power
OF existing beds in this vicinity. The
chesapeake waters, and the OYSTER
grounds Of the Carolinas have always
been prolific, but the dredgers who
are overzealous for the present are
making drafts upon the future.
We must have public oyster grounds
just as we have public nsning grounds
all over the world. 1t is likely that
there will always be public oyster
grounds in the United States, as there
are In England. Oyster culture in the
old country is an important industry
and the attempt to interfere with the
rights Of fishermen on the oyster
banks has always met with a strenu-
ND ri
Limitations have been placed on the
pubic fisheries to the extent of pro-
hibiting the marketing of deep-sea
oysters between June 15 and Aug. 4.
and there are regulations which have
been in force since the seventeenth
century prohibiting the taking of
small oysters altogether. But the
British fisherman still dredges for oys-s
tiers on the public banks, and he prob
ably will continue to exercise that
privilege for all time. The spirit of
independence will preserve to the
American fishermen the right to the
public fisheries, though certain con-
cessions are made even now to those
who wish to enter on the industry of
oyster cultivation.
Already all of the Atlantic coast
states have enacted laws setting aside
sea bottom for pre- emption or lease
by those who wish to enter on the
cultivation of oysters; and most of the
Northern oysters come from private
beds. 1t Is estimated by the fish COM
mission that the available sea bottom
on the coast of the United States will
always be able to oversupply the local
demand for oysters. That is a sensible
estimate, too, because nature usually
understands her business in local af-
fairs. There will, of course, always be
supply for the families dwelling on
the coast and every man can have his
oyster farm.

WASHINGTON, Oct. 1. - The fact
that our American oyster supply is
not now equal to the demand causes
grave apprehension in many minds
lest the popular food delicacy which
has become necessity may become
extinct. Many millions of our people
who dwell between the Allegheny and
Rocky mountains, between the Great
Lakes and the Gulf, do not understand
nor appreciate what calamity the
extinction of the oyster would be to
out city bred millions, who have
learned to depend upon the molluscan
supply for their daily comfort and
pleasure at breakfast, dinner and sup

The threatened extinction of the
American oyster has led the United
States fish commission to make many
experiments in the line of artificial
propagation and to examine carefully

ing for the future Is the improvident
manner and methods Of our oystermen,
who are unwittingly destroying their
industry for the future through care
lessness and ignorance.
1t is not generally known but Is Is
fact that the oyster business began
nearly two thousand years ago. OF
course from time immemorial men have
eaten oysters as they have fish, game
and other food. But the business Of
cultivating oysters and fattening them
for the market began with the Ro-
mans. Sergius Orator has been consid-
cred by most of those who have writ
ten about the Roman industry as the
originator of oyster culture, but Prof.
Dean, Of Columbia college, believes
that he was only a very successful Gull
turist, whose extensive business
brought him into prominence Sergius
Orator lived two thousand years ago.
There are three distinct branches Of
the oyster industry; the collection Of
the "spat" or spawn; the protection
of the young oyster through natural
growth, and the fattening of the oys-
