Away down on the Maine co Harpswell, a lobster farm is to bel:;'talan'; lished by two enterprising men who have made a study of lobster culture. The wave will be carrled on according to scientific directions from the Unilmf States Fish Congfl!ssiongrs. 5 obsters have been very scarce alc the Maine coast for several veare that 1 as compared with former periods, Good sized lobsters used to be sold from the cart for 5 cents apiece and, of course, at wholesale they went even cheaper. Mhny people suppose that the smallness of tire lobster catch in Maine by the existence of many canneries, but this i8 not so. There have been no lob- ster canning factories operation in Maine since 1895, in which year a law was passed forbidding the taking of lobsters under 101 inches in length. This law forced the canning companies out of busi- ness, as it was intended to. The average annual catch of lobsters on the Maine coast Is about 7,500.000, esti- l’lh’\:l‘() to be worth $750,000.—Fishing Ga- zette. accounted turi OCEAN TRAVEL. Pacific Coast Steamship Co.
