Ledger.
A dealer in oysters in Portland re-
ports that in sack of these bivalves
recently received from Puget Sound
he found number of tiny Holsters,
which hal ensconced themselves in
mussels and oysters, evidently for pro-
lection from enemies, and for the pur-
pose of feeding on their hosts. The
hermit crab, common on the beaches
of this Coast, uses the shells of whelps
periwinkles, etc, as habitation, and
it was suggested that the so-called lob
sters might be nothing but hermit
crabs, as it is not known that there are
any Holsters on Puget Sound. but the
man who opened the oysters and found
the young crustaceans in them, asserts
that they were Holsters and nothing
else. as they were completely encased
in shells and had long feelers project
/ ing from their heads. Astoria Budget.
