Notes | This brief news item recounts a bold expansion in the depths of the Depression. The Oregon Oyster Co. of Yaquina Bay decided to expand to a $100,000 investment. βThe company will then have in full production approximately 300 acres, producing both the Japanese and native Yaquina oysters. Over 100 men will be used to work the beds, which would produce 60,000 sacks on estimate.β |
