An

the

six

of

Islands,
holds
th:
hope
that
its
success
will
fill
a
gap
of
seasonal
unemployment
in
the
isl
inds'
fishing
industry.
It
is
too
early
yet
to
arrive
Pt
definite
conclusions,
says
Sam
Simpson,
operator
of
Queen
Charlotte
Cnnners,
but
he
hopes
that
in
another
yeir
he
will
be
able
to
harvest
the
first
commercial
yield
of
oy.'lers
eve
taken
north
of
the
Gulf
of
Georgia.
In
Prince
Rupert
to
deliver
several
million
oyster
seeds
to
Al
Faulkner,
another
pioneer
of
the
potential
industry,
Simpson
said:
"If
our
experiments
prova
successful,
we
will
be
able
to
enter
the
competitive
oyster
market.
We
can
grow
them
in
the
north
and
they
appear
to
be
of
even
better
quality
than
those
grown
in
southern
water.--.
The
experiment
should
prove
whether
the
oysters
we
planted
will
survive
in
larse
enough
numbers
to
make
the
project
economicrlly
feasible.
"It
takes
between
four
and
Hve
years
for
the
oysters
to
mnture
here
compared
to
three
years
la
the
south."
SOLUTION
lO
SLACK
TIME
Simpson
said
he
got
the
idea
of
the
oyster
beds
when
trying
to
Jind
some
facet
of
the
shellfish
industry
which
could
provide
employment
for
Massec
residents
during
the
normally
slack
months
of
January
to
March,
which
is
the
season
of
the
oyster
harvest.
His
delivery
of
the
oyster
eeds
in
Prince
Rupert
from
Pendrell
Sound,
north
of
Powell
River,
also
marks
a
unique
sttp
in
B.C.'s
oyster
growing
industry.
These
seeds,
or

are
the
firs',
