NATURE GOOD TO MARYLAND
Fruit, Game, Grain, Nuts, eeautlfui
Streams Found In Abundance In
Favored Section.

The squirrels are Cutting hick-
ory" and incidentally raiding the
fields of ripe corn; persimmon trees
are heavy with green fruit that gives
promise of much luscious sweetness
after the first hard frost; early focks
Of ducks are winging over the coves
and creeks where the wild celery
upon which they feed is thick and
long; and in the marshes the wild
bats are dropping their ripe grain
faster than the ortolans and reed
birds can gather it, according to
Niksah. All these are signs that au-
tumn is coming in tidewater Mary
land.
One must not forget either, that
oysters are almost prime and the
fishermen are gathering them by the
boatload, and that the sea trout are
running and watermelons are ripe.
Truly this region is friendly to man
in its abundance of things that are
good to eat. No wonder that the
Indians loved the country, and that
some of the first white men who came
to America made it their home.
1t is not a land of striking beauty,
but one nevertheless pleasing to the
aye. Slow-moving creeks spread into
broad covers as they meet the wide
green rivers; low hills heavily tim
bered roll back toward the rich up
lands of grain field and orchard.
Here and there on a commanding
hilltop stands a graceful mansion
with high pillared cerandas and wide
lawns-a leftover bit of c olonial
America.

BIRDS OF PREY ARE NEEDED
Australia Suffering Lose Of Crops and
Other Damage Through lack Of
feathered Seavenpers,

Australia is regretting the laws
passed some 30 years ago ordering
the slaughter of hawks, owls, carrion
crows or other birds that prey ON
young animals and birds. For these
have now been almost wiped out,
with the result, as described by w.
P. Pycraft in the illustrated London
News, that "decaying bodies, numer.
Gus on sheep farms, have been left to
be demolished by the larvae of blow
flies, which have now increased to
such an appalling extent as to threat
en- the sheep on the runs with de-
struction, the animals becoming sfly-
blown and eaten up alive by this
dangerous pest.
Similarly, Victoria is complain
ing of the difficulty of saving the i'm
mense wheat stacks of the country
from the plague of mice, which the
absence of their natural enemies has
be-gotten. Some protection has been
secured by inclosing the stacks with
in sheets of galvanized iron, leaving
convenient holes opposite tins sunk
in the ground and filled with water.
In this way as many as 10000 mice
have been caught in single night.
At Minyip recently the catch for two
nights weighed rather more than a
ton. Contemplate the cost of the
corn bill for a ton of mice for sim
gle week, and weigh this against the
cost Of a properly organized bureau
of ornithologyw
And Mr.. Pycraft warns Great
Britain that she is rapidly nearing
a similar condition by reason of her
passion for protecting game birds
against owls, hawks and their like.

NEW LlFEBOAT,

A new kind of lifeboat is a huge
steel buoy which weighs 1000 pounds
and will hold 40 persons, as well as
water and provisions sufficient for a
week or ten days. The buoy has an
anchor which serves as ballast and
it is claimed to be unsuitable. If
the buoy is kept on the deck of ves-
sci, all that is necessary in case of
accident is that the passengers climb
in. The buoy will launch itself as
the vessel sinks.
