MARTINS AGAIN SWARM

A third visit was paid last evening
TO the White House by the great
flock of martins which have s~a,m-
ed in the big elms this week. 1t Is
something OF a phenomenon the way
the birds suddenly appear just before
dusk and after circling like a dark
cloud over the trees for ten or fifteen
minutes, drop down onto the branches
before nightfall.
Hundreds Of blackbirds that used
to congregate in the trees at night
are sent scurrying elsewhere by the
invaders, but not before numerous
aerial battles arc fought to the enter
tainment OF spectators crowding

recalled Morrison as I had last seen
him. He was leading the party away

ordered Katherine Miller to be placed
on a burro which was led behind his
own horse. Katherine had protested
that she wouldn't leave the place
where she had ruled as a kind of
gypsy queer. But finding her had
been the one object of Morrison's ex-
petition. 1t wasn't like the detective
to lose her when found.
Morrison wouldn't lose us. either.

TELLS WILD-DUCK HANGERS
 HOW TO RAISE YOUNG BIRDS

Uncle Sam is the best friend the wild ducks have, and it follows that he has a warm spot in his heart for the wild-fowler, too. In the interests of both he has prepared leaflet on the propagation of wild ducks which may be had from the Bureau of Bio logical Survey, United States Depart ment of Agriculture, by anyone who asks for it.
 Mallards are the easiest to handle, with wood duck coming next. Black ducks need more space than either of these because they are more sensitive "a bit wilder" Widgeon and teal nede winter shelter, if grown in the North, to a greater extent than their cousins, but the provisions for shelter need not be elaborate. For most ducks and most climates a simple, three sided shack is sufficient, though ex- treme cold weather should find the ducks housed in tight building with plenty of litter on the floor.
 Fresh infusions of wild blood must be introduced from time to time if the birds are to keep their wild confor- nation. |.
 Wild-duck eggs are usually matched under hens, though they may be matched in an incubator. Breeding stock of whatever species should be obtained in the fall so as to be set tied in its quarters before the breed ing season. The leaflet describes the care and feeding of the young birds at every stage in their development from gleaming iridescent feathers of the duckling to the gleaming irides. cent feathers of the mature bird. It is leaflet that should interest sportsmen as we'll as the game farm

STATE FAIR FEATURE
 OF STATE DEVELOPMENT

That the Arizona State Fair should be supported by all loyal citizens of every district for the reason that it is an expression of just how great Ari- zona has become, is the thought em, bodied by Governor Campbell.
 "The Arizona State Fair" reads the governors message. "is viewed by me in the light of feature of state de- velopment, this with the fullest ad- mission that it also annually furnishes entertainment in the largest degree"
 Continuing the statement reads:
 "The fair is of great value to Arizona in bringing together repres- entative residents of all parts of the state. to renew old friendships and to make new ones. Such co-mingling- ling makes the state citizenry more concrete, and. at the same time, broader minded and more tolerant, for it tends toward destruction of narrow sectionalism, to recognition of the merits of other localities and to appreciation of the value of their pro- duets.
 "The people who attend the fair may come with sectional ideas, but they are likely to depart with feel ing of especial pride in their designa- tion as "Arizonans." They gain a broader view and an understanding, to larger degree, that they have their home in a state of wonderful capabilities and of large and diver sified production, state that has a marvellous history. through which the pluck of pioneers held ground against the savagery of the most savage sort, state wherein agricultural wealth has been developed in valleys and on plains that once knew only the yer durn of the sagebrush and cactus.
 "It was brave man who dared the Apaches of the Arizona hills. to find work and the mines. It took brave men and women to first settle the farming valleys where nature at first appeared hostile and where vision of the most wonderful sort was needed before the canals were dug and the

WHEAT MIDGE HITS
 PACIFIC NORTHWEST

The wheat midge is working down to the spring-wheat region of Wash ington from the Canadian Northwest.
 This insect has been present for a number of years in the eastern portion of the United States, extending as far chiefly injurious t spring wheat, which south as West Virginia, but, as it is is not largely grown in the eastern section of the United States, little close study has been made of it.
 Now that the insect appears to be about to establish itself in the spring. wheat regions of the Pacific North west, the United States Department of Agriculture, through its specialists in the Bureau of Entomology, has begun a systematic study of the habits of the midge. This insect is a small fly closely resembling the Hessian fly, but living between the Rlumes and the berry instead of on the stalk, as the Hessian fly does.
 This insect is said to have caused a loss of $15,000, 900 in New York state during the years 1857 and 1858.

THE ALFALFA WEEvIL IS
 CLOSE TO ARIZONA

The alfalfa weevil has heen found in various places around Reno, New. Heretofore this very serious pest of one of the most important forape crops has been known to exist only in a limited area in northern Utah, south and southeastern Idaho. southwestern Wyoming, and western Colorado. Its presence has been suspected elsewhere and the Secretary of Agriculture ask ed Congress for an additional appro priation of $10,000 to enable the de- partment to determine accurately the distribution. Congress declined to make the appropriation and the work could not be done. There have been grounds for believing that the pest is present in' western Oregon. Where the weevil is known to exist, control measures worked out by the depart- ment can be applied at a cost of not greater than $1 per acre. and they give complete control for the season.
 Where this pest becomes prevalent it reduces the yield of alfalfa to the extent of hundreds of thousands of dollars each year.

FIND MANY POTATOES FREEZE
 DUE TO IMPROPER SHIPPING

Of 5,895 cars of potatoes inspected by agents of the Bureau of Markets, United States Department of Agricul- ture, during the year ended July l, 1920, more than 2,000 cars showed damage from freezing in transit amounting in some cases to 40 per cent. This loss would not have oc- cured with the use of proper load ing and heating methods, say the bureaus specialists.
 Protection from cold depends large ly upon a constant circulation of warm air around the load. Heated air from a stove in the center of the car rises to the top, spreads along the ceiling between the potatoes and the roof, thence down through the open spaces at the ends, then back under meath a false floor coming out at the stove. :. ..,
 Cars should be carefully lined with paper. in box cars, false floors, false side and end walls slbuld be con- structed of boards and studding so as to provide for air circulation around the load. In refrigerator cars, false floors should be provided and care taken that bunker bulkhead openings are not blocked, either in papering or loading. .
 Cars should be heated at least six hours before loading. In loading, sacks should not come closer than eight inches from the ceiling. The potatoes at the floor should be load ed not less than six inches from the sides of the car.
 Complete details regarding the prevention of freezing in transit and
