LETTER OF SUBMITTAL. 


DEPARTMENT OF COMMERCE, 
Coast AND GEODETIC SURVEY, 
Washington, May 28, 1918. 

Sm: I have the honor to transmit herewith the final report of the officer de- 
tailed from the United States Coast and Geodetic Survey as representative of that 
service on the work of the Maryland Oyster Survey. 

The report, together with its accompanying index chart, is designed to serve both 
as a summary of and as an index to the 17 technical publications and 43 oyster charts 
resulting from the cooperation of the Maryland Shell Fish Commission, the United 
States Bureau of Fisheries, and the United States Coast and Geodetic Survey in the 
survey of the oyster resources of Maryland. 

The work has been done under the provisions of the act of Congress entitled ‘An 
act to authorize the Secretary of Commerce and Labor to cooperate, through the 
Bureau of the Coast and Geodetic Survey and the Bureau of Fisheries, with the 
Shell Fish Commissioners of the State of Maryland in making surveys of the natural 
oyster beds, bars, and rocks in the waters within the State of Maryland,” approved 
May 26, 1906, and of the acts of Congress making appropriations for sundry civil 
expenses of the Government for the fiscal years ending June 30, 1907, 1908, 1909, 
1910, 1911, 1912, and 1913. 

Respectfully, O. H. Tirtmann, 
Superintendent. 
To Hon. Wii11am C. REDFIELD, 
Secretary of Commerce.

SUMMARY OF SURVEY OF OYSTERS BARS OF MARYLAND, 
1906-1912. 


INTRODUCTORY STATEMENTS. 
EXPLANATION OF PLAN OF PUBLICATION. 


Tt often happens that the rapid progress of modern science, even when special- 
ized by application to a single class of work, is the indirect cause of an accumulation 
of technical publications impossible to assimilate and apply to a special case without 
an amount of labor all out of proportion to the probable benefits to be derived. 
And this applies with particular force to the six years’ work of the Maryland Oyster 
Survey, as evidenced by its publications consisting of a series of 17 official documents 
and 43 large-scale charts aggregating over 2,400 printed pages and 400 square feet 
of chart area. 

For reasons similar to those just mentioned, the value of a modern technical 
publication describing a particular work is for a greater part dependent upon the 
fidelity with which it is confined to a record of methods and results which can be 
utilized in future operations of like character. And this end has been accomplished 
with remarkable success for the work of the Maryland Oyster Survey by Dr. Caswell 
Grave of Johns Hopkins University and a member of the Maryland Shell Fish Com- 
mission from 1906 to 1912, in his Fourth Report of the Shell Fish Commission of 
Maryland. (XYJZII/I.)? 

The intent of this ‘‘Summary” is to supplement Dr. Grave’s report, first, by an 
index chart which also serves as a graphical summary; second, by a brief explanation 
of the relation of the work of the Government to the Maryland Oyster Survey; third, 
by a summary of the essential features of the work of the Maryland Oyster Survey; 
fourth, by a statement of conclusions thought to be of value for use in connection 
with future oyster surveys; fifth, by a list of publications relating to the oyster 
industry of Maryland; and, sixth, by a technical index to all publications of the 
Government and the State directly resulting from the work of the Maryland Oyster 
Survey. 

INDEX CHART AS A GRAPHICAL SUMMARY. 


The best summary and index of the six years’ work of the Maryland Oyster 
Survey, and probably the most useful and interesting feature of this publication, is the 
“Index Chart” in the folder. 

The chart is self-explanatory as to details. But other considerations suggest 
that attention be directed to the magnitude of the shellfish resources of Maryland 
and to the magnitude of the actual work of the survey as indicated graphically by 


1 See “ References,”’ p.19.

the green and red tinted areas on the water, the numerous small red triangles on the 
land, and the limits of the many large-scale charts required to represent these results 
in a practical form for future use. 


RELATION OF THE WORK OF THE GOVERNMENT TO THE MARYLAND OYSTER SURVEY. 


The Maryland Oyster Survey possessed the somewhat unusual character of having 
in its participants three separate Government bureaus and one State commission,’ 
all engaged in a common work leading to the conservation and the increase of the 
supply of food in the form of oysters. 

Im priority of the Government’s interest in the subject of oysters, it is so self- 
evident that the United States Bureau of Fisheries comes first that this phase of the 
subject requires no explanation. (JX, X, XJ, XIJ, XIIJ,etc.)? And the connection 
of the work of the United States Bureau of Chemistry with the sanitary conditions 
of the oyster industry is made equally evident by the fact that it is this Bureau which 
administers the pure-food laws of this country. \(X XX V.)? But the relation of 
the United States Coast and Geodetic Survey to such work is not so easy to explain. 
(XX XIV.)? 

The United States Coast and Geodetic Survey includes among its many func- 
tions not only the supplying of the chart-making needs of navigation, but also the 
laying of the geodetic foundation for a large part of the geographic work of our 
country; and it naturally follows that this foundation part of an ‘‘oyster survey”’ 
should be laid by the institution normally performing this class of work. Just as ina 
similar sense, it is better and more economical to have the foundation of a building 
laid by those experienced in such work, even though in the end it is the superstructure 
erected on the foundation which is utilized and appreciated by the public. 

Or stated in another way, it is only a question of the practical connection 
between the work of the United States Coast and Geodetic Survey in surveying and 
charting the waters of the coasts for the purposes of navigation, and the work of a 
so-called “‘oyster survey”’ in surveying and charting the oyster bottoms of these 
same waters of these same coasts for the purpose of developing the oyster industry 
of our country.

MARYLAND OYSTER SURVEY. 
HISTORY. 


A summary view of the history of the oyster industry of Maryland is graphically 
represented by the diagram by Grave, which faces this page. (XX XVI.) ! 

Another summary view of the same subject is presented by the chronological 
table of publications under the head of ‘‘References,’’! which were selected and 
arranged partly for that purpose. 

The diagram and the table of publications, while bemg in most respects a sufh- 
cient historical statement for the purposes of this publication, do not do justice to 
the many whose unselfish activities for the benefit of the oyster industry of Maryland 
have not followed the line of public work leading to a corresponding amount of printed 
records. And although these public-spirited citizens and officials are hundreds in 
number, there stands out at the head of this line of achievement, as do Brooks (V) ! 
and Winslow. (J/)* along their respective lines, the author? of the Haman Oyster 
Culture Law (XZI/I, pp. 353-372) 1 who has most splendidly and persistently led 
the movement which has molded the history of oyster culture in Maryland for more 
than twenty years down to the present time. (VJJ.)1 


OBJECT, 


The immediate object of the Maryland Oyster Survey, as distinguished from the 
hopes of the ultimate benefits to be derived from that work, having been transformed 
into actual results, it is needless to emphasize this phase of the subject beyond refer- 
ring to the statistical statements under the head of ‘‘Results” and to the graphic 
representation of these same facts on the ‘‘Index Chart.” 

But the ultimate object of the survey is another matter, and deals more nearly 
with what the pioneers of the oyster-culture movement in Maryland believed, and 
now have still more reason to believe, will be the form of the great oyster industry 
they expect to see erected on the foundation which has been laid for that purpose. 
(Vil? 

It now seems not only reasonable but probable that within the next generation 
the citizens of Maryland will be leasing and cultivating a probable 100,000 and a pos- 
sible 300,000 acres * of so-called ‘‘barren bottoms” where oysters do not now grow 
in commercial quantities; that the more than 200,000 acres of natural oyster bars now 
reserved for the use of the oystermen as a result of the Maryland Oyster Survey will 
be so conserved and developed that they will produce, as they have done before, 
twice the amount they now yield; that the oyster industry of Maryland will then be 
based on an annual production of 20,000,000 bushels of oysters where now it is 


1 See “‘ References,”’ p. 19. 
2B. Howard Haman, of Baltimore, Md. 
3 At the present date, May 23, 1913, some 36,000 acres have been applied for or leased.

barely 5,000,000; and that the physical valuation of the State-owned oyster lands 
will then be $100,000,000, where now it is not more than $20,000,000. (XXIV, _ 
p. 208; XLII, pp. 35-46; XLV.) 

These are the large expectations that measured, and do still measure, the ulti- 
mate object of the Haman Oyster Culture Law, and which led to the building of the 
Maryland Oyster Survey in such a manner that it will serve as a foundation for even 
a greater development of the oyster industry of Maryland than was forecasted by its 


founders. 
ORGANIZATION. 


The organization of the Maryland Oyster Survey has been indicated in the 
“Introductory statements” and in the ‘‘Conclusions.”’ It is also described in detail 
in the publications of the Maryland Shell Fish Commission (XLII, pp. 11-25) t 
and the United States Coast and Geodetic Survey (X LIV, pp. 19-21, 248-250). 

In a general way it is sufficient to state that the greater bulk of the work of this 
particular oyster survey was divided between the Maryland Shell Fish Commission ? 
and the United States Coast and Geodetic Survey im accordance with the laws 
(XLIV, pp. 243-246) ' authorizing the work and the natural division of the survey- 
ing operations of the cooperating forces. 

The work of the Maryland Shell Fish Commission included all the oyster inves- 
tigations, the special hydrographic operations required to delimitate the various 
shellfish bottoms, the surveying of the leased oyster lots, and all administrative 
matters pertaming to Maryland. The work of the United States Coast and Geodetic 
Survey included the establishing of the surveying foundation of triangulation, 
hydrography and topography, the preparation and publication of the technical and 
legal descriptions of the boundaries of the various shellfish bottoms reserved for the 
use of the public, and the preparation and publication of all the oyster charts showing 
the results of the work of the Maryland Oyster Survey. 

Dr. H. F. Moore, the well-known scientist of the United States Bureau of 
Fisheries and representative of that bureau on the work of the Maryland Oyster 
Survey, has stated that ‘‘the Bureau of Fisheries has cooperated with the Coast and 
Geodetic Survey and the Maryland Shell Fish Commission principally as an adviser 
im matters relating to the biological and economic survey of oyster bars and the 
methods to be employed for that purpose.” To which should be added in the way of 
explanation, that the part of the survey normally coming under the jurisdiction of 
the United States Bureau of Fisheries was in this case carried on by the State under 
the supervision of Dr. Caswell Grave, the scientific member of the Maryland Shell 
Fish Commission. If it had not been for this fortunate circumstance, to again quote 
Dr. Moore, “‘this work would have been conducted by the Bureau of Fisheries acting 
independently, as has been the case in certain other States than Maryland, the same 
ends being attaimed at greater expense to the Government.” (XLIV, p. 20.) ! 

It should be stated also that the sanitary survey of the oyster-producing waters 
of Maryland by the United States Bureau of Chemistry was not carried on with the 
advantage of the same degree of cooperation as probably would have been the case 
if the character of this feature of the work could have been more nearly forecasted at 
the begmning. (YX XV.) !

MARYLAND OYSTER SURVEY. 11 
METHODS. 


The methods employed on the work of the Maryland Oyster Survey bemg indi- 
cated in outline in the ‘“‘Conclusions” and also explained in detail in the publica- 
tions of the Maryland Shell Fish Commission (XZJII, pp. 48-95)! and the United 
States Coast and Geodetic Survey (X LIV, pp. 248-249, 172-177, 33-36, 20-21),! 
it is not in harmony with the plan of this publication to repeat that information here. 

But there is one point in the methods not adequately explained elsewhere in 
the publications of the Maryland Oyster Survey which it is believed should be empha- 
sized. And that point relates to the advantages of the use of geographic coordi- 
nates in technically and legally defining boundaries of natural oyster bars and leased 
oyster bottoms. 

This method of defining property lines under water was also used in the survey 
of the leased oyster bottoms of Delaware, and outlined in the following extract from 
the report of that work (YLVIII, pp. 69-74) :1 


The difficulties of accurately locating and permanently defining the boundaries of a farmer’s planta- 
tion on land, even with the aid of monuments, public roads, streams of water, and other points of refer- 
ence, are often great, judging from the disputes arising from this source. But be that as it may, there 
can be no doubt as to the difficulties of accurately locating and permanently defining the boundaries of 
an oysterman’s plantation situated under water at a distance off shore from 1 to 6 miles, as is the case 
with the leased oyster bottoms of Delaware. (XZ VIII, map.)} 

There is only one point on the earth’s surface at the intersection of any one parallel of latitude and 
any one meridian of longitude, and therefore, there can be no dispute as to the meaning of such a geo- 
graphic definition of the location of a point, even though ail the original triangulation station marks 
used in its determination, together with the chart on which its position was originally plotted, have 
been totally destroyed. 

In the case of the destruction of an original triangulation station mark, or any other point defined by 
a geographic position, a competent geodetic engineer can reestablish its exact location by means of a new 
system of triangulation connecting with other distant triangulation station marks which have not been 
destroyed. In the case of the destruction of the chart on which the position of any such point on the 
earth’s surface was originally plotted, this point can be replotted by its geographic position with any 
degree of accuracy permitted by the scale of any new chart constructed for that purpose. 

If there be no question at the time of the original location and legal adoption of a geographic definition 
of the location of a point by a given latitude and longitude, there can be no technical or legal question. 
afterwards as to its exact meaning, or as to the exact redetermination of the location of this point, be it 
either on land or water at its newly determined position, or on a new chart in its newly plotted position. 

For these reasons, the method of defining the location of boundary points by latitudes and longitudes 
(geographic positions) was adopted in the survey of the leased oyster bottoms of Delaware. This method is 
more or less an innovation in oyster surveys which was first used in connection with the work of the Mary- 
land Oyster Survey. It possesses so many undoubted advantages, and at the same time is so simple in 
principle and application when once understood, that its adoption by other oyster surveys of other Statex 
than Maryland and Delaware seems probable. 


RESULTS. 


The results of the Maryland Oyster Survey are presented in many forms and in 
many, places throughout the publications of that survey. 

Graphically, they are represented on a large scale on the Maryland Oyster 
Charts, Nos. 1 to 42. (ZIV.)' On a medium-sized scale, they are partly shown on

the ‘‘Progress maps”’ in the series of the 12 county publications of Survey of Oyster 
Bars of Maryland.1 On a much snaller scale they are represented as a whole on the . 
‘Index Chart”’ in the folder of this publication. 

Statistically, the results are also described in various tables both in the publi- 
cations of the Maryland Shell Fish Commission (X LI//, pp. 39-47, 102-103, 114-117, 
126-127, 132, 145-149, 182-183, 189, 195-199, 206-210, 225-228 239-241, 246, 
321-322, 336-339)! and the United States Coast and Geodetic Survey (X VIII, pp. 
18-19; XX, p. 15; XXII, p. 16; XXVI, p. 16; XXVIII, pp. 22-23; XXX, 
p. 14; XXXII, p.14: XX XIX, p. 18; XL, p. 21; XLIV, p. 25; XLVI, pp. 23, 
180).1 But as these tables are too separated for the purposes of a summary view, 
their principle features will be given in groups of statistics arranged in accordance 
with the class of the results it is desired to present.

EQUIPMENT. 


The equipment for the work of the Maryland Oyster Survey is fully described 
in the publications of the Maryland Shell Fish Commission (XLIII, pp. 34-36)! 
and the United States Coast and Geodetic Survey (X VJ, pp. 102-104).! 

In a general way it may be stated that the equipment was ample and satisfac- 
tory, especially in respect to the large living and office quarters on the Maryland Shell 
Fish Commission houseboat Oyster (X LIII, p. 35)! and the equipment of instruments 
furnished by the United States Coast and Geodetic Survey for both the work of the 
Government and State. 


COST. 


On account of the divided administration that naturally goes along with coop- 
erative work of several independent institutions, the problem of fixing the cost of 
the six years’ work of the Maryland Oyster Survey presents many difficulties. But 
Dr. Grave in the ‘Fourth Report of the Shell Fish Commission of Maryland” 
(XIII, p. 33)! has placed the figure at something more than a total of $200,000 
for all the work of both the Government and the State. 

Accepting $200,000 as the cost of the Maryland Oyster Survey, the following 
deductions will be of interest: 

The total area of the tidewaters of Maryland covered by the Maryland Oyster 
Survey, including natural oyster bars, crab bottoms, clam beds, bottoms suitable 
for oyster culture, and all other bottoms interspaced between these shellfish areas, 
is approximately 1,600 square miles, or 1,020,000 acres. This makes the cost of 
surveying and charting this area approximately $125 a square mile, or 20 cents 
an acre. 

The total annual production of oysters in Maryland is now approximately 
5,000,000 bushels, and the estimated ultimate production is 20,000,000 bushels. 
This makes a total cost of 1 cent per bushel for the estimated ultimate annual yield 
of the oyster industry to be operated on the surveying basis established by the

14 SUMMARY OF SURVEY OF OYSTER BARS OF MARYLAND. 


Maryland Oyster Survey, or 13 cents per bushel for the predicted 15,000,000-bushel 
increase in annual production. ; 

The total physical valuation of the oyster industry of Maryland is estimated’ 
as being now approximately $20,000,000, and the predicted ultimate valuation has 
been placed at $100,000,000. ‘This makes the cost of the Maryland Oyster Survey 
one-fifth of 1 per cent of the predicted ultimate value of the oyster industry to be 
based on that work, or one-quarter of 1 per cent of the predicted mcrease in valua- 
tion. (XLII, XLV.)? 


CHRONOLOGICAL STATEMENT, 


The chronological account of the stx years’ work of the Maryland Oyster Survey 
occupies many pages of both the publications of the Maryland Shell. Fish Commis- 
sion (XLIII, pp. 9-24, 37-38)! and the United States Coast and Geodetic Survey 
(XVI, pp. 104-105; XVIII, pp. 17-18; XX, pp. 14-15; X XI, p. 15; XX VI, 
pp. 15-16; X XVIII, pp. 21-22; XXX, pp. 138514; XX XI, p. 138; XX XIX, 
pp. 17-18; XL, pp. 19-20; X LIV, pp. 23-25; XLVI, pp. 22-23). For the pur- 
poses of this publication it is thought that it will be sufficient to give a table of the 
dates of the beginning of the field work and the closing of the office work for each 
county. The dates of the close of office work also being the dates of the filing of 
the certified charts and reports marking the legal opening of each county for the 
purpose of oyster culture under the provisions of the Haman Oyster Culture Law.

CONCLUSIONS. 
GENERAL STATEMENT. 


The Maryland Oyster Survey is probably the most extensive and complete work 
of its kind. And for that reason many of the conclusions resulting from experience 
gained in that work might be of public interest. But in harmony with the plan 
of this publication only those will be given which are thought to be of special value 
for use in connection with the consideration of future surveys of similar character. 

The primary object of an oyster survey from a national point of view is to 
conserve and increase the national supply of food. And before this can be done 
intelligently and economically it is evident that an inventory (or a survey as it is 
more commonly called) of the oyster resources under investigation must be made and 
recorded on charts and in other forms. (X XJI/, LIV.)! 

As distinguished from a national point of view, the object of an oyster survey 
of a particular State or locality naturally partakes more of the character of a desire 
to develop the wealth of that State or locality by increasing its oyster industries or 
by revenues obtained from the leasing of the land underneath its oyster-producing 
waters. And like the Government, it is evident that a State can not accomplish 
these objects intelligently and economically without first having a survey made of its 
oyster resources. (XLIII, XLVIII.)} 

Considered from both these points of view, the cooperation of the General 
Government with a State government appears to be not only a legitimate and an 
economical arrangement, but also the best method of conducting an oyster survey. 


REQUIREMENTS OF AN OYSTER SURVEY. 


From the Government standpoint, the chief requirements of an oyster survey 
appear to be: 

First. The representation on charts of the bottoms of the oyster-producing 
waters in such a manner as to show not only the limits of the natural growth of 
oysters as to locality and quantity, but also such other related information about 
these areas and the contiguous bottoms as will best indicate their value for the 
purpose of oyster culture. (X XIII, XLIX, LIV.) 

Second. A more detail description of the oyster bottoms than can be shown by 
symbols on the charts, and such other information as to the saltness of the water, the 
quantity and quality of the oyster food in the water, currents, tides, surrounding 
sanitary conditions, character of bottom, etc., as affect the growth and value of 
oysters. (X, XXXV, XLI, XLIX.)! 

Third. The carrying on of the oyster survey in such a manner that whenever it 
is economical to do so the results of certain parts of the surveying operations made

CONCLUSIONS. 17 


foundation for chart-making surveys, mapping of the adjacent land regions, river and 
harbor improvements, etc. (X X XIV; XLIV, pp. 36-171; XLVII, pp. 59-68.)! 

From the State or local standpoint the desirable requirements of an oyster 
survey, in addition to those just stated, appear to be: 

First. The well-defined representation on published charts, in a more or less 
arbitrary form, of the so-called “natural oyster bars’? which are to be reserved for 
the use of the public by reason of ancient customs, public sentiment, or the laws 
of the State in which they are located. (L/V.)! And a similar well-defined repre- 
sentation on published charts of the boundaries of the bottoms leased from the State 
by private individuals for the purpose of oyster culture. (XY ZVJ//I, map.)! 

Second. A more detail, technical, and legal description of the boundaries of these 
public natural oyster bars (X LIV, pp. 172-242)" and private leased oyster bottoms 
(XLVIII, pp. 69-108)! than can be secured by their representation on the charts, 
in order that the State can furnish an easily defined and incontestible title to those 
oyster bottoms it may desire to lease for the purposes of revenue or for the encour- 
agement of oyster culture. 

Third. The representation of the information obtained by the oyster survey in 
such a manner, both on charts and in publications, as will best combat the obstacles 
due to ignorance, prejudice, and politics, which are always to be found, to a greater 
or less extent, in every locality where oyster culture is in progress or being contem- 
plated. (Vl, XXIX, XXXIV, XXXVI, XXXVU, XXXVI, XLI, XLII, 
ALV, LIII.)! 


SUGGESTED ORGANIZATION OF AN OYSTER SURVEY. 


A complete oyster survey includes a part of the normal scientific operations of 
three separate bureaus? of the General Government, and for that reason, as has 
been previously indicated, an ideal survey of the oyster resources of any one State 
would involve the cooperation of these three Government bureaus with a State 
commission especially created for that purpose. (X X_XTV.)} 

Arranged in the order of actual operations, and without reference to priority or 
magnitude of the interests involved, the distribution of the work of the suggested 
cooperative oyster survey would be as follows: f 

United States Coast and Geodetic Survey.—The establishment of a surveying 
foundation of triangulation, topography, and hydrography. 

United States Bureau of Fisheries——The delimitation of the boundaries of the 
various classes of oyster bottoms and other scientific operations pertaining par- 
ticularly to oysters. 

United States Bureau of Chemistry.—The sanitary survey of the oyster-producing 
waters. 

State Oyster Survey Commission.—The marking, defining, and charting of the 
boundaries of both public and leased oyster bottoms, and the consideration of matters 
relating to the economic development of the oyster industry to be based on the 
results of the oyster survey.

18 SUMMARY OF SURVEY OF OYSTER BARS OF MARYLAND. 
COST OF AN OYSTER SURVEY. 


There is no one thing more important to either the layman or the engineer than 
to be able to make some sort of an estimate of the final cost of any engineering work 
being considered. And while the cost of any such work as the survey of the vast 
oyster resources of Maryland is information which should be recorded, it is of value 
chiefly for the means it furnishes for estimating the cost of future engieering works 
of sumilar character. 

Adopting the figures of Dr. Caswell Grave,’ the cost of a new oyster survey 
based on results obtained by the Maryland Oyster Survey would be approximately 
20 cents an acre for the entire area to be covered without reference to the various 
bottoms as finally classified. The legitimate share of the State’s expenses being 
estimated at 11 cents and those of the Government at 9 cents an acre. 

In considering the cost of an oyster survey, it should not be forgotten that the 
benefit to be derived by the Government from such operations would be not only in 
the form of an increase in the food supply of the country, but also in the form of a 
surveying foundation suitable for other chart and map making operations, river and 
harbor improvements, and so forth. 

In further explanation it should be stated that all the uncertain elements of 
weather, season, character of the topography, refinement of results demanded, 
urgency for completion of work, and so forth, which make it so difficult to estimate 
the cost of a geographic survey on land, are further magnified in an oyster survey. 
Not only by waves produced by winds that would not deter work on land, but also 
by social and political conditions which are usually associated with such work. 

It is also well to state in the way of warning that the preceding cost data when 
used as a basis for estimating the cost of oyster surveys in other States than Maryland 
may give only an approximately correct estimate under certain conditions. That 
for large open bodies of water, it might give an overestimate for good weather and 
an underestimate for bad weather, while for small bodies of water with complicated 
shore line and numerous small scattered oyster areas, it would probably furnish an 
underestimate because of the increased detail of the work in proportion to the total 
area of the survey.

TECHNICAL INDEX TO PUBLICATIONS. 
EXPLANATION. 


The technical index to the publications of the Maryland Oyster Survey is divided 
into four sections of two parts each under the heads of ‘‘ Natural oyster bars,” ‘‘Crab 
bottoms,” “Clam beds” and ‘‘Landmarks (U. S. Coast and Geodetic Survey tri- 
angulation stations).” 

The first part of each section is an ‘‘Alphabetical index,” which gives for each 
natural oyster bar, crab’ bottom, clam bed, or triangulation station, as the case 
may be— 

1. The serial number of the Maryland oyster chart on which it is shown. 

2. The approximate geographic location in latitude and longitude. 

3. The county in which it is located. 

4. The ‘‘County index number” by which it is indicated on the ‘Index chart.” ! 

5. The page number of the United States Coast and Geodetic Survey county 
publication of ‘Survey of oyster bars” on which it is technically described as to 
boundaries and locations. 

6. The page number of the Fourth Report of the Shell Fish Commission, on 
which are described its characteristics pertaining particularly to oysters. 

The second part of each section is a ‘“‘ Numerical index”’ arranged in a separate 
division for each county within which “Natural oyster bars,” ‘Crab bottoms,” 
“Clam beds,” or ‘Triangulation stations” are located, and gives only the names of 
the bars, bottoms, beds, or stations, as the case may be, corresponding to the 
“County index number”’ of these same objects as shown on the “Index chart.” 

The ‘County index numbers” are arranged in numerical order on the ‘Index 
chart,” commencing with No. 1 for each county, and in using an index number
