SAYS MUSSELS HAMPER

HARM OYSTERS
e. $. Expert, After Survey, Declares
Density OF Water Is Big Factor
And Normal Weather Would Cor
rec; Condition.

After To-day trip of investiga-
ton which extended to all the waters
Of the Chesapeake Bay and tribu-
butaries in Maryland in which oys-
tiers grow, J. S. Gutsell, in charge Of
oyster investigation for the United
States Bureau Of Fisheries. return
ed to Baltimore yesterday. His out
standing conclusion about the mus
sci problem are these:
There is no evidence that mussels
harm the oysters. The greatest evil
resulting from their presence is the
handicap to the industry from in
creased cost and difficulty Of hand
ling.
A direct relation exists between
mussels and the density Of the water.
The mussels are found only in salt
water areas, but they apparently will
not stand as great a degree of salini-
ty as oysters.
Quantity of rainfall plays promi-
nent part. Light rainfall extends
the salt water area high up the bay
and tributary streams. Mussels are
found as far up in this area as oys-
ters.
being killed by mussels, as some oys-
termen have declared, Mr.. Gutsell
said. No evidence was found that
mussels harm the oysters, he said,
because both thin and fat oysters
were found where there were mus
sells, and both kinds were found
where there were no mussels. Mr..
Gutsell added, howe ever, determine
ton to the effect of the mussel from
observation during a single year was
difficult because of changing condi-
tons. Presence of rich food sup
plies were mussels are numerous
might partly account for the fat oys-
tiers, he said.
Whether or not slight damage is
done in this way" said Mr.. Gutsell
1.-The outstanding feature is the harm
to the industry, not to the oyster.
This is unquestionably the greatest
evil In dredging where mussels are
bad the oystermen get only half as
many oysters. and then have to Gull
them, too. This causes higher cost
and increased difficulty in handling.
"In some places the mussels were
very bad. but in others they were not
nearly so bad as l had expected. Two
of the worst areas are near Holland
Point, in the PatuXent. and off Love
Point, off the mouth of the Chester
River. Here mussels are so numer-
Gus that they were found grouped by
themselves attached to bits of she'll.
"They are bad in the Nanticoke
and Wicomico, but not so bad as in
the other two areas. We found
none in Tangier Sound.
"Mussels were found up to the
freshwater extremity for oysters, but
not all the way to the saltwater ex-
tremity. The oysters stand a great
er degree OF salinity. The presence
Ut oysters in waters Of certain den
stiles is matter of environment, just
as hooking birds go as far North as
Pennsylvania, and long-needle pines
are found in the Southern States
but not in the Northern States"

Merry Movical Mrth

Our greatest indoor sport is at
tending the movies. From lads OF
seven to ladies of seventy all ages of
humankind enjoy the films. The So
called silent drama and comedy isn't
always noiseless. No indeed, there
is often some one present who just
must read the titles out loud to tell
movie secrets. This service on the
part of certain members of audiences
is rendered free and frees the show
of enjoyment for supersensitive folk.
But aside from these mere incidental
happenings the movies are a wonder
full educational and entertainment
factor. Fans always enjoy those
snappy press laughs screened in

of corn in the hog is worth two in

This is about the way DR.. H. j.
Patterson, director of the University
Of Maryland Experiment Station,
sums up the present situation of the
farmer in Maryland who has produc-
ed large corn crop which he Is find
ing it difficult 10 dispose Of at pay
ing figure.
Although the quotation for spot
corn in the Baltimore markets are
around So cents Per bushel, the
farmer who has to sell his corn on
, the farm or at local buying points is
getting no where near this figure,
according to DR.. Patterson, Many
/ sales of corn at local buying points.
which means that the farmer has
loaded and hauled the product from
the farm to those points, has been
made at 35 and 40 cents per bushel
says DR.. Patterson. In one county
according to reports reaching DR.
! Patterson, corn has sold as low as 26
cents per bushel.
AT these prices" says Dr.. Patter-
| son, lit is better economy for the
! farmer to feed as much of his crop
as possible to hogs despite the pre-
| yailing low price of pork. Results
| OF numerous experiments in feeding
hogs on corn rations alone show that
on an average of about ten bushels
| OF corn can be expected to produce
100 pounds of pork. In experiments
| where other feeds, notably grazing
crops, have been used to supplement
the corn, results have been even
| better.
with corn selling at 35 cents pei
bushel, pork can be produced on this
one feed alone, at an average cost OF
1858 per hundred. At 40 cents pei
bushel, it should cost $4.15 to pro-
duce a hundred pounds of pork. Live
hogs are selling at from to cents
per pound so that the farmer who
! feeds IS cent corn and produces a
| hundred pounds of pork for $3.50
! still has a pretty safe margin oil
profit. Another factor in this con-
nection worthy of the farmers con-
| sideration is that in feeding corL tC
! hogs, approximately 80 per cent oil
it's fertilizing value is retained or
! the farm instead of being sold"
AS explained by DR.. Patterson the

obtained from a large number of ex,
periments. Actual results in feed.

Winter Care OF Fires

If you are going 10 put your car
away for the winter, there are a few
important rules to follow if you want
to find your tires in good condition
when spring comes again. says the
United States Tire Company.
The tires should be cleaned thor
oughly to remove oil and grease. II
you want to be especially kind to
be especially kind to your tires, re-
move them from the car. debate
them, wrap them up in paper or
cloth and store them in cool, dry
place away from the sunlight.
If you do not want to go to the
trouble of removing the tires, jack
up the car, debate the tires, and
wrap them in covers Of paper OF
cloth. Do not let the car stand on
the tires all winter or you will need
a new set of tires in the spring.
1t is essential that tires be de-
flated. In cold weather an inflated
tire has tendency to set" a con-
dition under which the rubber Is
likely to break If bent or twisted out
of the position or shape in which 1t
has stood for a length Of time.
