MODEL OYSTER FARM.
novel Methods Adopted by Delaware
River PiEKnters of the BiValVes.

River Piaenters of the BiValVes.
The first experimental oyster farm
in the United States has proved so sue
cessful that two permanent farms are
being constructed at Dias Creek, about
eight miles north Of Cape May, n. j.
which takes up about two miles of the
Delaware bay shore of Cape May cOun-
ty, one by ex-senator Maurice A. Rod
gers of Camden county, n. j., and the
other by William Schellenburg of the
same place, says the New York Times.
Both are prominent oyster dealers in
Philadelphia, who own beds around
Maurice River Cove on the Delaware.
For years the planters have sustain
ed heavy losses by reason Of the ice,
which forms on the beds in the winter
and then floats off with high tides, car
rying the plants and dropping them IL
deeper water, where they cannot be
taken. Many smaller dealers, by rea-
son of this, have had to go out of bust
ness.
Senator Rodgers has been seeking a
! plan for some time to overcome this
! and about year ago at Dias Creek
leased a few acres along the bay front
! and tried an experiment, which gave
| such good results that he has now Sc
| cured two miles of the shore and over
$50 acres of ground. Mr.. Schellenburg
has secured large shore frontage and
! 1876 acres of ground.
The farms are connected in this fash
ion: Three ponds of considerable deptt
are dug, each about 10 feet from low
water mark, and connected by sluices
lined with wood. Each pond is alst
connected with the waters Of Delaware
bay, so that the tides can be allowed tC
| rise and fall in them, or they can bt
flooded or drained at will. Along the
shore, extending out into the bay a dis
tance of half n mile, are sand flats
which the tide leaves entirely bare a
| low water. On these flats are spreat
oyster shells, to which the spawn ad
heres. When the young bivalve i
large enough, it is removed into thes
ponds and there grows for year, tn
ICE seldom forming on them, and whe
1t does it cannot move them off. An
! this is the point which had to be made
/ When the oysters are almost ready 70
r market they are taken to deeper waite
beds for final growth. Mr.. Rodger
says his last years experiment ha
proved the wisdom Of his idea.

Why She wept.

Among the Malnotes, descendants OF
the Spartans, thieving is considered a
very honorable employment. An Eng
lish traveller, being entertained at the
house of one of the mountaineers, took
some silver articles from a packing
case he had with him to eat his dinner
with. At the sight of such costliness
an old woman began to cry, the Eng
lishman having asked what affected
her SO much:

oue.n yictoria,s Courtesy.

One Of the great sources Of the queens
power was the extreme attention she
gave to detail. This extended to every
thing which came under her personal
notice. The story Of her writing her
name in the dust on a piece OF furniture
while making q tour OF Windsor castle,
and underneath it also the name Of the
housemaid who was responsible for the
neglect, / have never heard confirmed,
but many little stories attest her farsee-
ing supervision in everything. She never
considered the smallest courtesy beneath
her dignity. Nine. NJ, lady in wait
ing to the Duchess of COnnaught, is
responsible for this little anecdote illus
trating this: At the time Of the chris
tening Of little Prince Edward, the eld-
est son Of the Duke of York, through
some mistake Nine Ms invitation
was forgotten. She did not go the cere-
mony, but seeing the queen soon after,
her majesty asked why she had not been
present, inquired into all the particulars
and made many excuses. Just then the
duchess came up. It's such a pity
about Nine Ms invitation" said her
majesty, but there's no need for you
to say anything. I've apologized. ."-Har
