DIV of seed oysters might be increased,
and to prevent the tendency toward de-
pletion of the industry OF the State.
Since the first OF the month, however,
oysters have been arriving here quite
freely and could be had at any oil
the dealers and at the restaurants.
These supposedly came from Maryland
waters.
The Richmond Times Dispatch says:
'Reports from the various oyster grounds
indicate that the mollusks are abundant
and of excellent quality. The tongmen
got to work yesterday, and the city VIII
soon be abundantly supplied with Vir-
ginia oysters. Those heretofore mar
keted have been from planting grounds
of private owners. Thousands of men
and hundreds of boats of every descrlp-
ton will now get busy harvesting the
delicious shell fish for the large mar
kets. The oysters were so cheap on the
Washington markets last week that sew
eral sloop owners refused to sell their
catch and took the oysters back to
plant.'
