Oyster Season Nearing an End.

The oyster season on the Potomac river
is rapidly drawing to a close. but such
does not mean that oysters will not be on
sale at the oyster wharf. for they will con-
tinue to arrive here until warm weather
comes and interferes with the sale of them.
Under the law adopted by the legislature
of both Virginia and Maryland. the season
for taking oysters with dredges and drags
closes March L. that is tomorrow. and af
ter that time the oyster police boats Will
double their vigilance in the lookout for
dredge boats violating the law. Oyster TAX
ing in the Potomac is not entirely forbid
den, however. for under the law the oys-
termen can still take the bivalves from the
oyster rocks until April %. but they must
use nothing but oyster tongs to get them
In other Virginia and Maryland waters the
oyster-taking season will close this year
March 81. The oyster-taking season on
Chesapeake bay and it's tributaries In past
years opened September 1 and closed April
80 but the season has recently been short
ened at both ends in an endeayor on the
part of the states to preserve the oyster
beds, and to prevent their depletion IL Is
stated that the beneficial effect OF the
shortening of the oyster season is already
being seen, though the new laws have only
been in effect about two years.
