LAY OF THE NIGHTINGALE.
Why II Stops When the Little Birds
Come Out Of the Shell.

why II Stops When the Little Birds
Come Out of the Shell.
1t is generally assumed that bird
sings because he is happy, but science
goes deeper for an explanation Of the
why and wherefore of the birds song.
Natures optimistic joy in constructive
progress is expressed in the singing of
the male birds who charm their mates
to further their wooing and continue
after eggs are laid to encourage the
fulfillment of Matching.
The song stops when the little birds
come out of the shell. The nightin-
gale for weeks during the period of
nest building and Matching charms his
mate and human ears near him with
the beautiful music of his love song.
But as soon as the little nightingales
come from the eggs the song changes
to sort of cultural croak, implying
anxiety and sense of responsibility.
If the nest and contents were de-
stroyed the nightingale would at once
resume his beautiful song to inspire
his mate to help him build another nest
and start all over again the loving work
of being fruitful and multiplying

skiing on the Water.

The ski is recommended as both q
life saving device and pleasure craft
combining safety with novelty. It can
not sink, makes better speed than q
swimmer and does not tire the rider as
swimming does. 1t is more practicable
for long distances and can go through
water where there is heavy under
tow, as it sits so high in the water
that it is not caught in the grip of the
undercurrent as the legs of the swim
mer are. It doesn't take long time
to master, as the surf board does; re-
quires no skill in balancing and stick
ing on and has the great advantage OF
being equipped with a motive power
whereas the ordinary surf board mus
be pushed and padded out to sea be
fore it can be ridden in.-Outing.

crops of hay are short The seeded
required is in every respect the same
as that for corn. 1t should be firm
and well-worked on the surface.
At the experiment station seedlings
have been made every two weeks from
April 18th to August LIST. The results
and experience thus obtained indicate
that Sudan grass may be safely seed
ed any time between May 18th and
July 18th, the best time lying between
June LIST and July 1st. A good guide
is to wait until after corn planting
time. If seeded before this, there
will be slow growth for the first few
weeks. thus greatly helping weeds to
get the start. When sown after July
LIST, not more than one cutting can be
expected.
For hay production, Sudan grass
should be seeded broadcast. The best
implement for seeding it is the grain
drill. Good, clean seed feeds evenly
through the wheat compartments OF
the drill at about the same rate wheat
does; that is, if the drill is set to SOW
two pecks of wheat it will also SOW
approximately two pecks of Sudan
grass. If the seed is not clean 1t is
difficult to determine at what rate the
drill should be set to seed the desired
amount; in this case 1t may even be
necessary to use the oat compart-
ments. The seeding may also be done
by hand or with one of the numer.

he best depth. everything considered,
les between one-half and one and
one-half inches, depending upon the
soil and the danger of baking after a
heavy rain. Where baking is certain,
planting between one-half and one
inch is the best depth, but where the
land does not become packed easily
the seed readily forces its way
through three inches Of soil
When seeding broadcast, 15 to 25
pounds of good seed is sufficient.
Where the seeded is firm. moist, and
otherwise in good condition, and the
soil is fairly fertile, Is pounds is a
plenty If the land is rather poor and
the seeded is poorly prepared, then
25 pounds is better. For seeding in
rows to be cultivated for seed, produc-
ton, four to six pounds of seed will
be sufficient.

What After Safety?

Everybody from Dan to Beersheba is
now thoroughly convinced that safety
irst" is the proper thing. 1t may not
always be possible to agree upon
whose safety it shall be. but considered
wholly in the abstract anybody caught
putting anything ahead of safety In
these enlightened days Of peace and
good will would have to dodge anath-
ema the rest of his life.
Indeed, so amicably and universally
settled is this problem Of ''safety
arst" that many are wondering If we
shouldn't now stop talking about it and
commence to consider what shall come
after safety. Safety, although. the first
thing. Is not the only thing. What
shall we have for second? Any sug-
gestion. however foolish, win be vel

gUiLDING UP THE COMMUNITY
WILL BE DISCUSSED AT couN-
TRY LIFE CONFERENCE.

Ways and means of arousing their
people to a deeper sense of obligation
to build up community life and make
their neighborhoods still more desir-
able places in which to live, will be the
keynote of much of the discussion at
the Country Life Conference for Rural
Ministers, to be held at College Park,
Aug. 8. 4 and 5. One of the most
striking papers delivered at last years
Conference was on this very subject.
of how the country might keep its own
people, particularly the prosperous re-
tired farmer and his family. who ought
to be the most influential factors in
building up permanent community
life. DR.. Carver said
$50 long as the original farmer is
on the ground, the man who himself
built the farm, used the energy of his
own muscles with which to improve It,
watered it with the sweat of his own
brow. he will not forget the old neigh
borhood But when
the third generation comes along, hav.
ing none of these memories, and none
Of those interests, then the real tend
ency begins to show itself in It's full
measure. The farm becomes merely
the place from which the money comes
to be spent in town. There is no in
terest in the farm at all, except as
source of income The life is lived
elsewhere, and the money is spent
elsewhere, and the schools and the
churches in the town are built up with
the money that comes from the farm"

The early summer season is the most
favorable time of the year to study
agriculture and allied subjects at the
Maryland Agricultural College. The
College Farm with its experimental
gardens. orchards. field crops. and
fertilizer plots is at its best. These
opportunities for first hand study in
addition to the outdoor life and the
freedom from the care of the school
room will make a few weeks spent at
your Agricultural College delightful
