Tas Thornhill, of
junior member of the W. G
hill Fish and Oyster concern,
yesterday to The Tribune that then
arc plenty of oysters this year
that Tuesday one boat docked fli their
pier witli 120 barrels.
He also stated that they are better
and fatter and finer in every way
than usual and are giving the best of
satisfaction evert where.
Till.' is a splendid Indm try, and we
remember how Mr. W. G. Thornhill
used to appeal to the public to pay
more attention to it. pointing out its
commercial value and what it could
be made to do, if the people would
only tug age in the culture of the oys-
ter along safe, sane and scientific
methods.
We would like to hear from Mr.
Thornhill aagin along the same linos
nd li >pc he will soon find the time
to start afresh with the agitation, for
the opportunities for a money-making
industry are plentiful and our terri-
tory unlimited.
