| Description |
English: Oyster seed, mostly two-year olds, attached to the wooden piles and the stones beneath Chequesset Inn wharf, Wellfleet, Mass. The abundance of the natural set on such objects indicates that successful spat collecting can be carried out in this locality. During severe winters the mortality is heavy, owing to the exposure between the tide lines; but these oysters have weathered two ordinary winters.
