Notes | Brief news note. “Master Fish Warden McAllister recently visited Yaquina Bay, where he assisted in planting a carload of lobsters which arrived there recently from the coast of Maine. There also arrived some 200,000 lobster eggs, and these will be hatched in the car, and as soon as the lobsters reach sufficient size they will be liberated. The transplanting of the lobsters from the Atlantic to the Pacific Ocean is an experiment upon the part of the federal fishery department, and was brought about through the efforts of Senator Bourne, who is chairman of the senate committee on fisheries.” |
