UNIFORMITY In UNITS
MEASURING OYSTERS
Governor And Conservation Commits
sion Will Place Bivalves in Mary
Land And Virginia on Equality.

At a conference Thursday attend
ed by Governor Harrington, mem
bers OF the Conservation Commission
and leading oyster packers it was
decided that steps shall be taken al
once to secure uniformity in the units
used in measuring oysters in Mary
land and Virginia, thus placing the
oysters OF the two States on an
equality in the markets. In Mary
land an amendment to the existing
oyster laws by the next General As
sembly will be necessary to secure
the object in view
/ In Maryland the fact has been
demonstrated that marketers of oys-
ters have been placed at a disadvant-
age with Virginia by the disparity in
units. The legal measuring tub in
this State is 20 inches from the rim
diagonally to the bottom. In Vir-
ginia the same measurement is 21
inches. 1t is apparent, therefore,
that the buyer prefers the Virginia
source OF supply. Maryland oyster
men in the Potomac river have avoid
ed the disadvantage under which
they are laboring through State laws
by selling in Virginia under the laws
of thai State. The extra inch given
in Virginia is to cover "cribbing,"
which is expert packing, so as to have
as few w5oysters as possible in each full
tub. However, carefully and honest
ly oysters may be packed the buyer
is generally the loser through gaps
between oysters. He is more apt to
get his moneys worth in Virginia
than in Maryland.
At the conforonoo If wac olco
agreed that the commission should be
sustained in it's efforts to enforce the
oyster Gull law. Governor Harring-
ton assured the members and pack
ers that he was thoroughly in accord
with their plans to conserve the oys-
ters through drastic enforcement of
the Gull and other laws. The com
and those engaged in the
several oyster activities were report
ed to be working together in har-
