It is evident that this industry, if properly devel- oped and nurtured, may be the source of large profit to the people of the State. Even the empty shells, which a few years since were deemed almost worthless, have now a commercial value. I am informed they sell for from two and one-half cents to six cents per bushel for shipment to our neighboring State of Connecticut, where they are planted in the waters of Long Island Sound. Here the young oysters form on the shells so planted, and in from ...one to two years these shells, with the ' set,' as it is termed, are sold to be replanted in our own waters, realizing from forty to sixty-five cents a bushel. There would seem to be no good reason why these shells should not in the first instance be utilized in the waters of our own bay and its tributaries, and I am informed that experiments are being contemplated by our commissioners with this end in view." " The commissioners deem it important that some change should be made ni our present statutes, relative to the shell fisheries, the industry having in some respects outgrown the present legislation, which was adapted rather to the development than to the regulation of the system.
