taught to accomplish almost any act
that it's owner wishes.
The birds are naturally fond of play
and to combine play with instruction
Is said by Edward Montague, an old
New Highlander, to be the best meth
cd of training Montagues ancestry
dates back in 1868, when Richard Mon
tague settled in Hadley, Mass. and all
of his descendants, of whom there are
more than five hundred in the United
States, take pride in displaying the
Montague coat-of-arms.
in addition to being proud of his
ancestry, Edward Montague is ex-
tremely proud of his flock of trained
cockatoos and some of his birds,
doubtless because Of his training, dis
play almost human intelligence.
The cockato is found in immense
focks in the wild regions three hun
bred miles west of Melbourne, Aus
tralia, and there they are easily
caught in traps. There are several
species, but those with the yellow
crest are the most beautiful as we'll
as the most intelligent.
1t is a strange feature of the breed
ing of the cockatoo that the mother
bird matches her young in particular
ly torrid climate and then immedi-
ately flies away to some colder cline,
where the young bird quickly attains
it's growth Another feature of the
bird is that the crest is barometer Of
feeling.
When incensed. the crest is percep-
tibly raised, while when the bird
sulks, the crest is CORRESPONDENCE
lowered. Naturally the bird is of a
vicious nature and one pick from the
sharp bill is sufficient to sever the end
of a finger
Training of the birds is an interest
ing vocation and usually extends over
a period of two years. The individu-
al bird must first be taught to per-
form and then similar instruction has
to be given to tie flock. The birds
can be taught to dance, engage in
chariot races, do stunts on the hori-
zontal bars, perform on revolving
balls and lastly to talk and swear.
The birds strangely pick up profane
words much more quickly than words
of any other type, and some cockatoos
know more profanity than anything
else.
They live to be more than one hun
dred years old, and some birds are in
captivity which have exceeded the
century mark They do not require
any more treatment to sustain life
than human being, and if they are
fed regularly and kept out of draughts
they contract no Illness. But they dis
like extreme hot weather, and those
in captivity always grow restless
when the hot sun shines upon them.

ECZEMA BROKE OUT ON BABY

STORMS TO PREDICT SELVES
Wireless Stations to Be Used to Make
Tempests Send Their Own
Warning Ahead.

Storm centers move usually III an
esterly or northeasterly direction.
Hence the prediction of storms on the
Atlantic coast is possible. since most
of them come from the Mississippi
valley. Some come up the coast from
the Caribbean sea. but even in this
case we have no warning.
But western Europe is less fortu-
nate. Its tempests come from the At
lantic, and with little warning. Euro
pean weather men have made as much
as possible a study of the paths of
American storms across the Atlantic
and are sometimes accurate in pre-
dieting the time of their arrival; the
same has been done with storms COM
ing up from the South Atlantic.
But it often happens that storms vary
either their route or the rate Of move
ment, so that predicting cyclones on
the coast of western Europe is more
or less guesswork.
AS a possible help in this respect
Director Andre of the Lyons observa-
tory is making deep study of the
galvanometer records of various wire
less telegraph stations.
He has found that the antennae are
sensitive to any stray electric currents
as we'll as to messages, and he hopes
to discover way to make the storms
telegraph their own warning ahead of
their arrival
Every storm is accompanied by cleo
trical disturbances, and already NJ.
Andre has accumulated a mass of evil
dence to show that each storm in this
way gives warning. Just how to read
this evidence is the problem to which
he is devoting himself.

Pest Year In Anne Arundel.

Annapolis. = Discouraging reports
come from various parts of fertile
Ane Arundel county over the crop
prospects, both as to quantity and as
to the period of ripening.
In addition to the long, cold winter
and late spring, the frequent cold
rains have delayed all sorts of farm
work. In many sections mice played
havoc with early plants in hotbeds,
and some farmers have lost many
thousands of cantaloupes through the
ravages of the little rodents, which
seem to be making up for a winter Of
starvation.
One farmer who lost 5000 plants
iE week, says the mice went from
pot to pot eating the seeds just as
they were putting forth rootlets and
sprouts.

had given protection from burrowing
insects and larvae, but this was not
the case. Cutworms have seldom been

but they have well-grounded fears for
their sugar corn and field corn. Corn
planting has been delayed unusually
long this spring, and many farmers
have not yet broken ground for the

The Colorado beetles or potato bugs
bid fair to be a most costly pest
They are appearing in all the early
potatoes. There are some always
among the tomatoes, but this season
an unusually large number are in the
tomato fields, destroying such tender
plants as have escared the cutworms.
So prevalent are these beetles that
many of them are found in crops that
they usually fail to modest in ordinary
