Cape Cod was much reduced. Marthas Vineyard once was bordered by good 

 quahaug ground, but not now. Yields were large in Narragansett Bay and 

 Providence River. Connecticut statistics were scarce, but production was 

 also rather large, and distribution was said to cover a wider area than 

 formerly, although quantity was less. Production is also mentioned at City 

 Island in the East River. Along the north shore of Long Island clams were 

 harvested at Flushing Bay, Little Neck (a few), Roslyn, Glen Cove, and Port 

 Washington. Along the south shore of Long Island was a great supply of clams 

 which were shipped to New York City. In Great South Bay it was asserted that 

 distribution was gradually shifting eastward, the present limit being Brown's 

 Point. A firm in Islip was packing clams and clam chowder in cans. At 

 Amityville one person was planting small clams for later harvest. Production 

 from New York Bay was substantial. Production along the New Jersey coast is. 

 described. Chesapeake Bay is described as highly productive, but information 

 was incomplete. Catches were shipped to Baltimore, Norfolk, and Yorktown. In 

 North Carolina not many clams were harvested. Some experiments in bringing 

 clams from Okracoke to Norfolk were attempted, but they were unprofitable.

 5th Ann. Meeting, Gulf Caribb. Fish. Inst.: 106 (abstract). 



Shellfishes did not suffer damage when suspended from the dredge itself 

 (presumably in the plume) . Larger particles of mud did damage on the bot- 

 tom in the immediate vicinity of dredging, but did not extend beyond 400 

 yds, and usually much less. Dredging controlled to take account of local 

 conditions is suggested as the best solution. Damage to fishery resources 

 by dredging is frequently overrated. - J.L.M.
