DREDGE BOATS IN READINESS.
Fleet in Oyster Waters to Await
Seasons Opening.

According to reports received from
the lower river large fleet of dredge
boats. both sail and power. yesterday
were lying in harbor along the lower
Potomac awaiting the opening of the
dredging season. which begins today.
Since the 18th Of September tongers
have been at work taking oysters from
the beds in the river, but SO heavy
has been the demand that they have
not been able to catch enough to meet
II, and oysters have been selling high
on the taking grounds.
The starting to work of the dredging
fleet guarantees a larger catch of
oysters and will probably have the eff
feet of causing somewhat lower prices.
Those who have made study OF the
oyster situation say that the season
should be a good one, as the beds are
full of marketable oysters.
For the first time in several years
the laws of Maryland and Virginia. de-
signed for the protection of the oyster.
are to be enforced, and the inspectors
will see that small oysters and shells
are not taken away from the beds. 1t
also Is said that conditions on the
oyster beds in the upper part of the
bay. where the oysters were reported
to be dying in large numbers are not
~ bad as was first thought.
