I'liythorch's oystor. but the oyster In his world. Ho i the first man ever lo grow oysters In a laboratory tank a feat that may niien a new era In the oyster Industry. For 26 of hi 48 yearn Dr. Prythcreh, director of the U. S. fisheries laboratory here, ha been prylnfc Into the private Ufa of the oyster. Hu h the No. 1 Ucjswell of the bivalves. CiinvlncliiK oysters they could bo hnppy In a nice aheltered In door tank wii.i no easy mutter. For all their hnrd-shcllcd Isola lion, oysters arc moody and sen iiillve creatures. Transferred to the tanks from their natural habitat, the crusty Introverts for years Just withdrew Into their pearly home, closed Its pearly Kales and died. He learned that Instead of reoulrlnu sea water of a fixed and unvarying- salinity, the oyster thrived in the tank only whan he Introduced currents of fresh and suit water. This simu lated the tidal mixing of fresh and salt water that occurs at the Weyl-Zuckermon UTAH SEED NOW ARRIVING At Hosley Ociinilda test shows no leaf roll Carl E. WILLIAMS Ttltphon 8319 Klamath Falls mouths of rivers, where wild oysters love to settle down. " I lie ciibiikc is noon ior inem, said Dr. Prythcreh, "In the same way that winter and summer chiuiKes benefit human being. Variety is healthy." Walt for Food Oysters, sedentary as flugpolc sitters, can't rove for food and must wull for the sea to bring it to them. They arc among the ureatest Untiles In nature. They drink fifty gallons of water dally, sifting from It the nourishment they need. This is In the form of plunkton, minute orgunisms which arc the bread of the scij, the basic food for all sea life. Dr. Prythcreh grows this food at will in his laboratory tanks. The laboratory is exploring methods of thus growing oysters under controlled conditions on a large scale. "It Is a little early lo tell about commercial possibilities,"' said the scientist. But he pointed out that oyster beds grown under controlled conditions could be protected from destructive storms and raiding starfish and other natural enemies. Several years ago Dr. Pryth creh learned by watching star fish and seagulls how to speed I the shucking of oysters. Starfish open oysters by se creting a fluid that paralyzes the muscle of the oyster that close his shell. Soda water, Dr. Prythcreh found, has the tame effect. By taking a tip from the sea gulls he found an even simpler way. Culls open shellfish by flying up and dropping them on the beach. The Impact dazes the shellfish. The scientist found he could duplicate this "shell shock" by placing oysters in a violently tumbling barrel while water jets cleaned their shells. The oysters came out bathed, punchdrunk and ready for shucking. Dr. Prythcreh subscribes to the popular belief, held long before mankind turned to monkey ? lands, that oysters have re uvenatlng qualities. "Oysters are definitely rich In vitamin E, calcium and other minerals," he said, "and there is no need to wait for the 'R' lll.KAI.U MHH. Klara.lk . Or.. MONDAY.
