Report of the Commission appointed to inquire into the Methods of Oyster Culture in the United Kingdom and France, with a view to the Introduction of Improved Methods of Cultivation of Oysters into Ireland : presented to both Houses of Parliament by command of Her Majesty . it a valuable spat; from July tothe following May no care or attention is necessary.

There pares may still be made, but itbecomes necessary to attend more to the cleansing of the collec- 38 REPORT ON OYSTER CULTURE tors. The collectors may be large flat stones if nothing bettercan be had; but tiles, as employed on the French plan, are easierto attend to, and easier to cleanse. These pares may be simplyenclosed spaces, with surrounding walls of stones so as to defineeach particular allotment; or in the case of a space of groundsurrounded by the sea, belonging to an individual, or to two orthree working in partnership, the method of placing the tileseither in rows or patches, as may be most convenient for thearresting of the spat, and as shown in figs. 20, 21, 22, and 23,may be adopted. At Arcachon the pares are made upon this plan, Fig, Fig. 21.
