But James E. Kitchel and his mother are sure enough of their methods to begin construction on a plant in southeast Colorado. “It is under construction now,” James E. Kitchel, president of Marine Nutritional Systems Inc., said Sunday. “It is in the early stages, but should be finished by March, and we figure to start pro duction by May.” Kitchel said he expects to pro duce the oysters at a cost of about 7 cents each, and sell them for at least 15 cents, mostly to “restaurants that want premium oysters on their ta bles.” Kitchel and his mother, Alice M. Kenslow, who was with the National Marine Fisheries Service from 1954 to 1974, organized their company in 1975 to develop a system for the commercial culture of oysters and other seafood. Kitchel calls their method “aquaculture.” He said aquaculture today “is where solar energy was 15 years ago.” Although an infant industry, he said aquaculture is growing rapidly. Several major corporations, in cluding Coca-Cola and Ralston- Purina, are engaged in aquaculture They’re cutting the maple out of maple syrup United Press International MONTPELIER, Vt. — It seems nothing is sacred. First, they cut the alcohol content of popular brands of whiskey from 86 to 80 percent. Now, they’re tak ing the maple syrup out of pancake toppings. General Foods Corp. says it will reduce the amount of pure maple syrup in its Log Cabin brand syrup from 3 to 2 percent, and other com panies are going to eliminate it al together. But maple growers in Vermont — famous for the real thing — say it won’t hurt them. They say there is already a demand for more maple syrup than they can produce and demand is growing daily, especially in the health food market. research, but Marine Nutritional Systems, located in Denver, is the only company to have developed a recirculating system using artificial sea water, said Kitchel. A recirculating system depends on complicated filtration technology to prevent buildup of toxic materials in the water. The artificial sea water must contain proper amounts of sea salt and other minerals. Kitchel picked Lamar as the site of his shellfish plant after meeting with the Lamar Utilities Board, which agreed to let him use “waste heat” from the city-owned power plant adjacent to the site. Oysters grow faster at a higher temperature, he said. Lamar also has provided Kitchel’s company with a free 20-year lease on the 19 acres where the aquacul ture facility will be situated. In ex change, Kitchel provide work for 30 to 40 Lamar residents. After the oyster facility is com pleted, two rows of greenhouses will be built containing 18,000-gallon algae ponds. Oysters feed only on algae, a low form of plant life. Marine Nutritional Systems has its own secret way of producing al gae. The nutrient formula used was developed by Kitchel’s mother, who was engaged in research concerning the artifical growth of marine life while working for the federal gov ernment. Mrs. Kenslow, who was raised on a ranch in southern Colorado and at tended Colorado State Univesity in 1931-34, has published numerous technical papers on the subject of algae and shellfish culture in artifi cial sea water. She is vice president of Marine Nutritional Systems. The company went public last summer with a 1.7 million share of fering, sold out at 75 cents per share. Kitchel said this form of financing “was the only way to go” because the pioneering nature of the business bothers lenders such as banks. The stock currently is trading at around $1 a share, and has never been below the initial offering price. Kitchel and his mother still own more than 17 percent of the com pany’s stock. A by-product of the Lamster plant will he shrimp, said Kitchel. Tanks in which the oysters are grown also will be stocked with shrimp,, which are scavengers and will eat the oys ter wastes, he said. From time to time the shrimp will he harvested and sold. ♦t® 505 OFF "GET THE MOST - TAKE THE POST" ENJOY THE HOUSTON POST FOR THE SPRING SEMESTER FOR ONLY 5 8 (excluding Spring Break Mar.12-18) or $9 (including Spring Break) MORNING DELIVERY WITH GUARANTEED SERVICE’.
