| Notes | In the summer of 1931, the author investigated Tillamook, Netarts, and Alsea bays to determine their suitability for oyster culture. He also investigated the state of oyster growing in Yaquina Bay, the only place in the state where oysters were grown commercially. This is an unpublished manuscript that was distributed locally. "Alsea Bay is small in area and receives a large amount of fresh water from the surrounding territory; therefore, its value for oyster culture is yet to be determined." |
