New Oyster Fields Grow In Hood Canal District
Oyster men report Hood Canal near Clifton developing into a major oyster region. About 19 000 acres of beds plus the United States preserve cover the area with 10 000 acres of productive beds and several smaller plots. C A Christopher shipped three crates from Union City on the Perdita, marking the first regular market output from Hood Canal. Christopher found the canopy of potential during a hunting trip near government preserves and, with a partner who secured land before the preserve, began cultivating 125 acres of canal bottom. Seeds have blossomed over two years, and Christopher predicts Hood Canal will rival any state for oyster production. He notes the oysters are fine and multiply quickly, having already disproved early doubts about growth.
