To quickly assess the difficulty of the text, read a short excerpt:

The area of the individual beds varies from less than 1 acre to over 50 acres, and the total acreage of the group is about 108. The general character of the beds is about the same as those constituting the Eoot Lumps, though there are small areas where the grow^th is more dense and Avith a greater accumulation of shells. Nearer the shore there is a substratum of hard mud upon which is superimposed a stratum of soft mud and shells, but toward the middle of the bay the bottom, to a depth of 4 to ...5 feet at least, is composed entirely of soft mud and engulfed shells. The living oysters are all small, badly clustered, and of \'ery poor quality and shape. There is a great pre- ponderance of dead shells, many of the old ones being large. Avhile the recently dead are of smaller size. The shells of the living oysters are thin and fragile, and the whole aspect of the beds indicates that they are far on the higliAvay to extinction.
Off-the-Cut Lvwps. — The beds so designated by the oystermen are four in number, ranging from about 4 to 115 acres in area, Avith a total acreage of about 160.
