Med- cof, who is the author of a tremendously interesting bulle- tin Oyster Farming in the Maritimes, "oyster fishermen for centuries followed the rule of thumb method to improve the quality and increase the quantity of their harvest". From a beginning in France in 1870, oyster farming became a practice in eastern Canada in 1930. Probably, if the disaster of Malpeque disease had not struck so hard in the area from, which it got its name and lat- er on the mainland of Nova Scotia and New Brunswick, Canadian methods of farming and fishing this seafood delic- acy so much in demand, might have progressed at a snail's pace. Mrs. John Lindsay, Mrs. Lloyd Makins, Mrs. John Scot- airier and Mrs. Harvey Hdhn- er, attended the Huron Pres- byterial for United Church Wo- men in Brucefield last Thurs- day. Mr. and Mrs. F. P. Arkell accompanied by their daughter and son-in-law, Mr. and Mrs. Instead the hatchery, which was built at Ellerslie in 1963 is designed to produce oysters by artificial methods. The me- chanical installations in the hatchery have been calculated to provide as nearly as possible the desired physical conditions for artificially spawning and rearing oysters. There are still large natural oyster farms in the Maritimes producing millions of pounds each year. It is at this time of 'the Fall they are at their best, plump and flavorsome. Modern methods have made it possible to store oysters safely for considerable periods but the cheapest and most satisfactory marketing is still from boat to commercial out- let. The '50s were disastrous for oyster fishing in New Bruns- wick and Nova Scotia. Disease practically Wiped out many beds in these two provinces. It had been discovered, how- ever, that after the epidemic in Malpeque Bay had subsided, the 10 percent left living form- ed a nucleus of disease resis- tant stock. These oysters have been used as breeders and the beds so drastically diminished are making a promising. come- back. Ten thousand barrels of Malpeque disease resistant oys- ters have speeded up the re- covery which, under natural cir- cumstances, would have taken from 10 to 15 years. It is pre- dicted that by 1965 oyster har- vesting throughout the Mari- times will prove that trans- planting has been an unquali- fied success. Malpeque oysters are not producers of pearls of quality. Nor can the present Gregorian calendar change the old super- stition about not eating oysters in the four R-less months of the year. An American joker has suggested changing the spelling of these four summer months to Mayr, Juner, Jurly and Augurst. Perhaps this, al- ong with improved breeding and storage methods might Make it profitable in the not too distant future to sell fresh oysters all year round! This annual seafood harvest, esti- mated in Dr. Medcof's bulletin at fluctuating around seven million pounds valued roughly at $400,000, given the impetus of successful artificial breeding plus healthy natural oyster beds now in existence, could be a bonanza for the Maritime Provinces.
