A WAY TO Use UP
OYSTER SHELLS
Senator Mudd ReintrOduces Bill to
Build State Plants Objection
able Clause Eliminated.
KILLED AT LAST SESSION.
An Appropriation of $4,000 is Asked
With Which to Erect Plants On
the Eastern Shore and South
err MARYLAND.

Senator Mudd reintrOduced yeStTGdN
the bill of two years ago appropriating
$4,000 for the construction OF plants
on the Eastern Shore anu Southern
Maryland for converting oyster shells
into lime for agricultural purposes.
This measure differs from the other
only in that it omits the provision
for convict labor.
Two years ago the bill passed the
House, and when il came to the Sen
ate was slightly amended This ne
cessitated it's return to the House for
concurrence. Meanwhile large dele
cations came here from Frederick and
other sections of Western Maryland
protesting against the measure claim
ing that legitimate manufacturers
would be unable to compete with the
enterprise and that they would be
put out of business. As a result the
House killed the bill
To meet the objections then raised
this bill takes out the convict feature
and limits the use of the lime to the
Improvement of the soil in the sections
in which the plants are located.
The argument advanced in the pre-
amble sets forth that
Large areas of farm land are being
abandoned each year owing to the ex-
haustion of the soil and il has been
conclusively demonstrated that the APP
plication of lime restores such land to
its original state of productiveness.
Along the tidewaters of the State
there are large accumulations of oys-
ter shells, which are not put to any
profitable use, and large shipments
are made to other states to be convert
ed into lime for agricultural purposes
Lime made from oyster shells is
of equal or greater value than that
produced from other sources, and it is
right and proper that the State OF
Maryland should conserve its resogr-
ces for the benefit of its citizens"
The bill provides for the appropri-
alton of the sums named to be used in
converting the oyster shells into agri-
cultural lime. A State Agricultural
Lime Board is created, made up of the
secretary of the State Board of Agri-
clture, director of the Farmers Insti-
tute, state agent Of Farmers Demon
.stration Work, and the Maryland state
manager of the Southern Settlement
and Development Organization.
This board. which is TO serve with
out pay. shall, after organization, ac-
quire the ground necessary. construct
buildings, install machinery. employ
superintendent and proper clerical
help to carry on the work
The lime is to be sold to farmers
for agricultural purposes only at a
price which will enable them to pay
all expenses and cost of maintenance
with a small percentage above expens-
es and cost of maintenance to enable
them to maintain a sinking fund to re-
imburse the State.

JOINT RESOLUTION FOR
UNIFORM FISH LAWS
Senator Archer Introduces Joint Bill
Calling On congressman.

Yesterday a joint resolution was
introduced in the legislature by Sena.
tor Archer calling upon Maryland rep
resentatives in Congress to exert
their influence to secure passage of
legislation to make uniform the laws
protecting the migratory fish in the
Chesapeake Bay and its tributaries by
Federal supervision and restriction and
also petitioning the War Department
to restrict the length of the extension
of nets into the bay and its tributar-
les.
Senator Archer, since he has been a
member of the General Assembly, has
manifested keen interest in every
effort to protect the fish in the Chesa-
peske Bay.
In the preamble of the resolution
he asserts that the fishing industry of
the bay and it's tributaries forms one
of the greatest sources of revenue Of
the State and furnishes food and en-
ployment for large number of citi-
zens, but notwithstanding these facts,
this source of food supply is diminish
ing in alarming proportions from year
to year and its very existence has be-
come seriously impaired. Maryland,
Senator Archer says, has from time to
time enacted legislation for the pro-
lection of the fishing industry, but
that Virginia, owning the m outh of
the bay, has failed to enact adequate
legislation, which causes the Maryland
legislation for the protection of mi
gratory fish to be largely futile. To
this he adds: That the unlimited ex-
tension of nets across the bay not
only binders the passage of spawning
fish to the upper regions of its waters,
but also interferes with navigation,
making it more dangerous.
