PLANTING SPONGES.

Methods Of Making Them Grow In uss
on the Florida Coast.
Biscayne hay. Sugar Loaf key, An
clote keys and Key West. on the Flor
Ida coast. are the principal places in
this country where experiments In
sponge culture have been made. The
various methods are an follows:
Seed" sponges are cut into small
pieces and. after having been attached
by wiring or spindle to circular or tri-
longuIar cement blocks. are dropped or
lowered depending upon the depth to
rest on the ocean bottom. where they
remain for n year Of two until they
reach a size proper for commercial pur-
poses. They are then taken by the
hook. when new cuttings are attached
and the cement blocks let down again.
Another method was to string them
on a wire held horizontal by stakes
driven In the bottom. In doing this,
however, various difficulties arose. The
sponges became loose and rotated on
the wire. enlarging the hole made
through them. and the action Of the
salt water corroded and destroyed the
wires until. after many trials and ex-
periments. q lead wire with . copper
core was successfully used.-St. Mich
