STORK MADE LONG JOURNEY
Bird Flew From Africa to Germany
With a Message From Exile to
the Fatheriand.

The population of Liskau, Germany,
noticed one day recently that one of
the many storks which annually re-
turn to the neighborhood from distant
southern zones to rebuild their nests
was carrying something about Its
heck which only human hands could
have fastened there.
Repeated efforts to approach the
bird had failed, but one Of the vii
layers finally lured the stork into his
barn and then and there learned that
the bird carried n little leather case
In which n note was inclOsed. The
note revealed that the stork had come
all the way from East Africa, where
a German %colonist, Will Bucha, has
his little farm rear Victoria lake.
Bucha must have anticipated that
the bird spent his annual vacation In
his beloved fatherland. so ne wrote :
"Just a greeting to the f%atherland,"
and used the stOrk to convey his
message.

POULTRY LITTER HELPS SOIL
Straw Filled With Droppinss Is One
Of Most Valuable Fertilizers

Poultry litter, particularly straw

most valuable fertilizers for gardens

worth while where clay soils are to
be worked, because in a few seasons
