T he general impreulou prevails

Former State Senator m L.

American Oyster Company. said loot

oeaoon was most doubtful and should
it come later it would not be developed
enough to withstand the wiotor. Pri-

slight lndlcntiono.
The question of the oyster oneringa
for the present neutron which opens
September 1 does not depend. how«
ever, on this year’s set. The oyster-

not be marketed for some four years
to come. Just how good the present
