Oyster Research Program Under WayLAt Ellerslie

a-a-u-

Alflmilcrtont Vfokrom of ro- search is now under way at the biological station at Eilersllo to llnd ways and moans .of cuttlnk down the cost of oyster produc- tion, it wsalosrned yesterday from Mr. R. l-‘t. Logic, who is in charge of the station.

This industry brought an estim- ated one hundred thousand dol- lars to the Pl-ovlnw in i047 but the rising cost of materials and labor la threatening to make it unprofitable so it is vital that the project which has been laid. down for this year be successful.

Tho biological station is operated by the Fisheries Research Posrd of Canada and s. unit of the De- partment of Fisheries is also ea- iabiished ‘there and both work in cooperation. Mnfngie is in charge of both units.

New Production System

In explaining tho new program w. Logic expressed the opinion that it is not. feasible to raise tile price of oysters. consequently a new ,, ‘ of production will have to be developed. 1t takes about live years to raise an oyster to maturity and certain phases of that period will receive concen- trated attentlon and if the pro- cess can be made more economical at. any point, partial oucoesa will have been obtained.

However, an endeavour will be made to achieve economy at three main points:

i. To develop cheaper ways, of raving the larvae or seed oysters.

2. 'I'o develop chemical lnoalne of killing starfish which are a. men- ace during the sooorld year.

l. To lower ilshinl coats.

Mr. Logic said that the three main oyster areas of the Province are Malpoquo Bay, Summersido Harbour. and last River at Char- lottetown. 8
