The Union of Sponge Fisheries is
trying to reform the wasteful prac-
tees Of the fishermen of Cuba. Ac-
.cording to the Cuba News (Havana),
the business done in the first half of
the current year was only $4,000, a
third of what it should have been. The
fishermen attribute this falling off to
the big storm of 1910 but the union is
taking steps to prove to them that
they alone are to blame, and that the
only way to revive the business is to
let the baby sponges alone and wait
until they have grown to respectable
size.
