Prof. Field says They Are Rolponllble
5 Present laws for the protection of

'I.(’l‘mIllaII()Il. Piof. Field expressed his
views licfoic the Twentieth Century
. Club in an attempt to explain the reas-
on why the lobster is becoming scarce
and why the business Is a precarious
tone. His opinion in bilef is not that
the limit should be removed but that
I it should be retained and only lobsters
‘under the. nine or ten and one-half

be taken.

try In a historical way, and quoting
statistics to show the alaiming do-
crease ln the supply. Prof. Field said.
“After being hatched during the
months of May. June and July, the
young lobsters come to the surface
and are devoured by fishes in large
numbers. There is thus a tremendous
infant mottaiity since only a few sur-
vive out of the 00 000 to 100000 eggs
in a mixlmum brood Twu years an
sue between Ibo different bioods and
it takes from five to seven years for
the lobster to reach the age of ma-
tuiity. All these conditions. especially
the destruction of adult lobsters make
it extremely difficult to carry out any
scheme of artificial icpioducilon. such
as has been resorted to in the case of
the oyster. the clam. the trout and
many other fisti. The. lobster is iint
pilmarily adapted to the ordinary
methods of artificial reproduction
“For the present destruction of
adult lobsters it seems to me that the
existing laws have been primarily rc-
sponsible. They say that a lobster
shall not be killed when lees than
nine inches—or in this special case.
when less than ten and one-half

q =1 premium upon the catching of adults.
It is the adult lobster on blch we
have to depend for the full 9 supply.

begin to lay their eggs—«when they

iiltiiit‘l remedy is to use young for
food. it is wrong to say that tho lob-
stcr shall not be caught during a ccr~

shall not be used in (atthing it. The
close season works injury to vested
interests: it makes the lobster

Steps are being taken to immune the
supply artificially. These attempts
raise the question whether (apital can

“The lobster is a ticmoiidous tanni-

two lobsters survived and could be
raised to maturity. the total number
of lobsters would remain the same. if
none were caught. Therefore. if more
