American Tobacco in spaip.

Consular Agent Mertens at Grao reports
TO the State Department that Spain offers
an excellent market for American tobacco.
Spain's tobacco factories, he says, are to
great extent dependent upon American to-
baccO. During the late war this could not
be furnished and various trials were made
with other kinds, but none seemed able to
replace the American product. In the
month of May new contracts for tobacco
deliveries are made by the company which
has the monopoly of the tobacco trade in
Spain. and, it will probably purchase
American tobacco again, our merchants
should enter into negotiations with them.
Already agents. from Germany with sam
pies have arrived In Madrid and no time
should be lost by the United States houses.

FISHING CLUBS ACTIVE.
Belief That Sport This Season VIII BE
First-Class

Ffrst-Class.
Members of the many fishing clubs along
the river are making extensive prepara-
tions for the coming season, and some of
them expect to make improvements to their
property. Anglers have every reason to
believe that the sport this season will be
much better than 1t has been for several
years past. Local anglers are interested in
quite a number Of clubs along the Potomac,
flom as far up as Woodmont to the mouth
of the river, On the lower part of The river
there are several places where some of the
sportsmen have their summer outings
reports thus far received indicate ttat
there Is an abundance of fish in the river.
A citizen who tried his luck in the Anacos-
tia river a few days ago told a Star re-
porter that bass of the plymouth species
and yellow perch were found to be partc-
ulariy plentiful. He said he saw many Of
these fish in the water but he caught only
yellow perch, because he did not have the
proper bait for the bass. The spring bass
fishing, he said, would not amount to much
this season on account of the wet weather.
which necessarily clouds the water and
stops the fish from biting.
Under the law the time for spring bass
nshlng Will soon close, and cannot be re-
sumed until that period when the weather
is almost too warm to make the sport en-
Joyable. Down the river the netters are
catching great quantities of these bass and
shipping them to market. Because of the
rigid Enforcement of the fish law none of
the smaller fish are now making their way
to the local market. Crappies 1t is re-
ported. are also more plentiful han Il ey
We're last year. A number Of them have
been seen In the river III The vicinity of
Analostan Island.
At this season, when fish are supposed to
be plentiful, the so-called pot hunters are
more liable, 1t Is claimed, to attempt viola
tons of the law than at other times. For
this reason Game Warden Sylvester is hav-
ing the river guarded al night, and VIOLA
tors of the law who make the attempt are
pretty sure to get caught.

If constant practice is essential to de-
