The business of picking periwinkleS
along the Maine beaches has begun,
with the shipment of several barrels
from Lubec to Boston and New York.
Last winter the price went as high
as SIS per barrel, as it was a hard
winter and difficult TO get onto the
beaches. This year the weather has
been more mild and the price nets
the shipper about IS. with a rising
market. The periwlnkle is eaten
largely on the East Side of New
York, and about the North End of
Boston. mostly by people of foreign
extraction, who buy them at IL to
20 cents quart.
