Maine Agricultural Experiment Station. 1920. 



Opened Clams. 



Results of examination of samples collected in 1919-20 by 

 the inspectors. For the most part these were purchased without 

 the inspector making himself known, and are what the con- 

 sumer would have received, except that the containers were 

 paper and absorbed more or less of the liquids thus making the 

 samples appear better than they really were. Good fresh opened 

 well drained clams will carry not more than 10 per cent of 

 liquids and not less than ij per cent solids. The samples are 

 arranged alphabetically by towns.
