WOULD SAVE THE sohGBlRDsi
Associated Audubon Societies Have
Planned ceperal Campaign
Throughout the South.

A general campaign for the better
protection Of songbirds is to be con-
Quoted throughout the South by the
Associated Audubon Societies, ma
tional organization. T. Gilbert Pear
son, president of the organization, who
has been studying southern bird life,
depl0res evidence he has found which
indicates that bird mortality in the
South has about wiped out valuable
species in many localities. In South
Carolina he found conditions In this
respect very distressing while sur
vey In Texas revealed similar sltua-
tion. But his Indictment covers the en-
tire South, and hence the campaign
In contemplation is to include all the
southern states. Mr.. Gilbert directed
the attention Of farmers to the fact
that the fight against the boil w9eyil
ls being greatly handicapped by the
slaughter Of birds. In this connection
he said further: -s.---.AsA
while they feed on insects and do
not specialize on boil weevils, single
songbird will destroy great quantities
Of weevils. The value Of these birds In
checking the multiplication Of insects
Is thoroughly understood all through
the North. where the laws protecting
birds are observed. In most sections Of
the North a farmer would prosecute
anyone killing songbirds on his lands.
But In many parts Of the South the
farmers, his sons and the hired men
kill birds constantly, eating the robin
and some Of the other larger varieties
and shooting many of the smaller va
rieties for spOrt."-New Orleans

QUESTION FOR LAW SHARKS
Nice Point Concerning Ownership Of
Pearl Which Cook Discovered
In Clam She Was Eating,

A nice question Of ethics and Of
law Is raised by the case Of the cook
ut Atlantic City who choked on pearl
found in clam she was eating and
whose mistress then claimed the
precious obstruction for her own.
In the diamond mines of the Rand
at Kimberley the native workman who
swallows a diamond does not, ipso
facto, make 1t his own. He digs In
the blue clay on the understanding
that every Jewel discovered belongs
to the De Beers Mining company, Ltd.
But the cook was in different situa-
tion. She was given her food as n
part Of her compensation. The pearl
Is an excrescent part OF the clam; 1t
is the picturesque result of diseased
condition.
II possession Is nine-tenths Of the
law, then the cook Is entitled to the
pearl on the principle of findings Is
keepIngs." In any ccse, the lady Of
the house would be entitled to boast,
as many a mistress has asserted, II
have a pearl in my cook l''-Phlla-

WHAT TO PLANT AFTER
WHEAT Is HAILED G

In several sections Of the dry
land Of eastern Colorado, hail storms
destroyed whole fields of wheat just
as they were approaching harvest.
Many farmers are asking the college
how to handle land SO as not to be
bothered by volunteer grain. The
editor put the question up to Profes,
sor Alvin Kezer. agronomfst of the
Experiment Station, who said:
"The problem OF volunteer grain
on such hailed out wheat fields Is
the serious part Of the matter. Where
thers is plenty OF moisture it might
be advisable to disc the ground, LET
the wheat sprout and then plow so as
to kill the volunteer grain. Wheat
good enough to make yield of fif-
teen or twenty bushels per acre might
make volunteer stand SO heavy
on the land that no crop would be
produced. An effort should be made
to prevent the volunteer grain from
getting start. and to plow the land
so as to make a good seed bed for the
next crop. which will usually be win.
ter wheat In that region.
Owing to the fact that these hail
storms have come about the middle
OF July it is too late to plant many
crops in the hopes OF getting good
harvest Corn and the sorghums are
out OF the question because Of the
shortness of the season left. Occa.
sionallly barley will make fair crop
planted as late as the middle Of July
but II will not do so every season. II
there is plenty OF irrigation water
oats can be carried to hay crop at
least For pasture purposes prob.
ably rye is the surest thing to put
onto the land. Most OF the other
crops will be killed at the first frost.
Rye will continue to grow during
the warm days up to heavy freezing
weather. II planted early 1t will
make successful fall pasturage and
can be planted again In the spring."

VIM. GEO. BRUCE
SPEAKS TO men
DEEP WATER PROJECT IS
GREAT FOR STATE,
HE DECLARES

Vouching for the fact that a direct
outlet to foreign markets would mean
$150,000, 900 to Wisconsin farmers and
factories, William George Bruce, for
mer secretary of the Milwaukee Asso-
citation of Commerce and a, member OF
the Wisconsin Tidewater association,
staunchly supported the Great Lakes
St. Lawrence deep waterway project
in an address before the Rotary club
last Monday noon at the Cyrus Yaw-
key hall, where luncheon was served
Mr.. Bruce predicted that within ten
years all of the ten Wisconsin ports
on the Great Lakes would be most i'm
portant in international shipping and
that instead of sending goods to New
York, a most expensive port, Wiscon-
sin produce intended for foreign des-
tination would be loaded onto vessels
at Wisconsin ports. He cited Milwau-
KEGS preparation for this time, the
endeayOr that city is now making to
obtain wharf facilities.
Plan as Advocated
One of the interesting remarks
made by Mr.. Bruce was that Ger
man ship landed at Milwaukee as far
back as 1851. Among the improve
ments that are contemplated, he said,
at cost of S250,000,000, are the
lengthening OF the canal locks in the
Welland canal from 240 feet to 800
feet; deepening them from fourteen
to thirty feet; widening them from
forty-four feet to eighty feet With
this improvement, Mr.. Bruce declared
that large ocean vessels would be able
to reach the Great Lakes and to make
all of the ports into the very heart
of America. Cooperation between
Canada and the United States in this
project he strongly advocated, believ-
ing that it will further cement the
ties OF friendship that 1t will further
cement the ties of friendship that have
always existed between the two on the
border between which there is not
single fort.
Opposition In the East
The speaker further expressed his
opinion that opposition is found main
ly in the east where some of the New
England states, New York and New
Jersey have a selfish interest at heart.
He denied the implication that the
project is merely for Chicago, de-
claring that all of the middle west
would reap the benefit or such pro-
ject.
Rotarian A. L. Kreutzer called up
on the members of the club to coop
crate in the move to keep B. F.
Schultz, band director, in Wausau, and
urged the committee to work for mon
ey in conjunction with the Kiwanis
club. A. NJ Evans furnished the CT
gars for the day.

COLONEL DIES HERO
Nazim Bey Gives Life to Save
Force of lsmet Pasha.
Commando r-ln- Chief Declares That In
all Military Experience He Knows
Of No Finer Deed Of Heroism.

Headquarters Turkish Nationalist
Army.-Coi. Nazim Bey. with his
Fourth division, lost his life and saved
the main body of Gen. Ismet Pasha's
forces from being taken in the rear
and possibly routed during the frontal
attack made with superior forces and
equipment by the Greeks In the
Kutahia zone
In recognition OF his services, Gen.
Ismet Pasha published a note to the
army stating that in his entire military
career. including also his knowledge OF
military history, he knew of no liner
example of heroism and intelligent
valor. He also paid high tribute to the
remnants of Col. Nazim's division re-
manning after standing for two days
against three Greek divisions. any one
OF which was stated to be superior In
numbers to that of Nazin.
The Greeks had planned, In addition
to the frontal attack on Kutahla, sur
prise raid on the Turk rear with three
dying divisions, and the surprise APP
pears to have been, complete.
So soon as their presence In force
was discovered Nazim Bey was de-
tached from the main army to stop
them. or halt their progress until the
retreat from Kutahia could be effected.
He did so. and during these forty
eight hours or constant fighting and
retreating. he was wounded by a rifle
bullet. but kept on his horse until
struck by second bullet, toward the
end Of the fight.
He died. but with the knowledge
that he had saved the main body OF
the army. "Kismet" Cts fate) were his
last words.

by profession. he served during the
