There is considerable consternation
among oyster growers in this vicinity on
account'of the damage done to_ their ex-
tensive oyster beds, which lie 03 Milford,
Stratford, Black Rock, Fairlicld, South-
port and Norwalk. The beds comprise.
many thousand acres of oyster farms in
various stages of cultivation by individual
owners, who have purchased the territory
from the state. The damage to a large
portion of the crop was caused by the
recent severe northeast gale. Beds located
from three to six miles ofl shore are not .,
harmed, the violent action of the sea not
reaching to the bottom. The oysters of
three _ years’ growth have been stirred

the bivalves and spoil the crop. The ex- .

be disastrous and the work of months ren- Ev
dared of no profit. Millions of starfish, wk:-
which have proved a great enemy to the ._
oyster, have been killed by the grinding
action of the oysters and shells on the
bottom, while large numbers have been
drifted off the private oyster beds. One
oyster man who owns more than 1,000
acres of ground, said that his beds had
been damaged by sand to the extent of
$75,000, and he believed other growers
lost as heavily. He had been benefitted ‘
by the removal of starfish perhaps .500 on ‘
his twenty beds. The growers keep _
steamers'constautly going from one bed
to another to evade the ravages of starfish.
When the oysters are taken up by dredges
all the starfish captured are picked out
and placed in large tubs. The oysters
are then taken to another section of land,
and deposited where there are less of the
enemy. At the close of the day's work
steam from the boiler is mind on the star—
fish to kill them and they are thrown over;
board. If five bushels of the starfish are
destroyed in a day the oyster farmers con-
sider the time well spent. More than fifty
small vessels are here engaged in taking
up the bivalves for market. The oysters
are marketable whenfour years old.
