nounced yesterday that they had COM
pleted an agreement to make joint
Offices Of their branches In New York

to eliminate some Of the more costly

ANGLER HOOKS
4H-LB. BASS IN
POTOMAC
BY GINO SINH

Fresh water fishing is perking
up nicely and this weekend
should prove very satisfactory.
Small mouth bass are being
caught regularly above Great
Falls and the large mouth specie
are taking to both live and arti
ficial bait at GunSton Cove and
ct Piscataway Creek.
B. F. Ferrill. 1740 Euclid St.
N. W.. writes in epic terms of a
4h-pound bass he landed near
Sycamore Island:
81 was bait casting.
"The fish struck almost as
the bait touched the water and
SO was some distance away. But
It was firmly hooked, and a
battle royal Of several minutes
followed.
Leaped Clear of Water
"On two occasions it leaped
clear of the water by many
inches, fighting the hooked
bait like a salt water tarpOn.
FINALLY, thanks to a lot of
luck, the fish was landed, a
greenish bronze beauty of a
small mouth bass that tipped
the scales at Az pounds. The
length was FL inches and the
Rirth IA inches"
R. C. Ault had queer ex-
perience while fishing near Key
Bridge a few days ago. He net
ted a four-inch crab.
Grabs have been reported in
aarge numbers as far up the river
as Indian Head. Old-timers re-
call that in the drought year OF
1890, the crusteceans were caught
in large numbers off Alexan'
dria.
Steve Guazza, Louis Jewett and
John Williams bagged IL small
mouth bass in the Shenandoah,
near Front Royal, Friday, aver
aging around two pounds. Jewett
and Williams returned there Sun
day and brought in 80 of them.
Seven-P Pound Bass
Earl Blankenship caught one
of the biggest large-mouth bass
on record at Piscataway recently.
It weighed seven pounds. He was
fortunate enough to get it tan
gled in the tall grass where,
while it struggled to free itself,
he handlined into the boat. The
huge fish almost jumped out the
boat while he was trying to
secure it.
DR.. Asa Harris and wife paint
a rosy picture of fishing at
Wachapreague They caught two
bushels of founders, weighing
from two to ten pounds in two
and one-half hours fishing, two
days ago. King Williams sea

FARMERS TURN
To DA|RY|NG

Maryland farmers are turning
from general farming to dairying,
a survey of 1,779 farms in that
State by the extension service of
the University of Maryland has
disclosed.
The change, according to con-
clusionS drawn by the State
specialists, is influenced by the
fact that there is more profit in
dairying.
The number of milch cows on
farms of the State has increased
3 per cent over last year and the
farmers are disposing of fewer of
the animals.
The survey also indicates that,
weather permitting, there will he
a IL per cent increase in the
wheat acreage and 10 per cent in
that given to rye. The estimate
of wheat acreage was placed at
435 900 and that of rye at $4,000.
The number of pigs increased
approximately 5 per cent with
$4,000 but there are fewer lambs
this year than last.
