Oystermeu in Norwaik anti vicinity
disagree with the members of the
Shell Fish Commission which leer-ut-

Sound shore towns that there is it good
oyster set this year and that the. in-

say it is entirely too early to say any-
thing about the oyster set at this time
for the reason that its yet the tasters
have not spawned, and it will he the
latter part of August before any deli-
nlte idea what the set will be can be
obtained.
