Excerpt from Report Upon Lobster Investigations at Long Beach Pond, Nova Scotia, During the Summer of 1915 It should, perhaps, be explained that we employed five difierent devices, or enclo sures, for impounding adults. The smallest was the crate, about 3 feet by 2 feet by 2 feet, which floated on the water, and could he used for temporary purposes only. The second was our rearing boxes, 10 feet by 10 feet by 21 feet, with revolving paddles inside, so as to aerate the water, as described in the report of last year. The third was the compartment, 20 feet by 10 feet by the varying depth of the water at high and at low tide. The wooden slats of which it was constructed were only about 4} feet high. As can be seen from the illustration, there were six of these compartments within the cement pound. The fourth enclosure was the pound, and the fifth, the pond, but these two latter were so large that is was impossible to use them for observa tion purposes. The compartments could be used for observation purposes only at low water. The real purpose of their construction was to serve as sub-divisions of the pound, in which lobsters could be kept for experimental and observational purposes.
