SAVE THE MELONS

Clemson College, June 2O.-Many
carloads of watermelons are lost an
nually by South Carolina melon grow
ers through stem-end rot developed
while the melons are in transit to
market which could be saved with
slight trouble and expense by simple
treatment of the stems with Bordeaux
paste at the time of loading in the
cars. To help melon growers save
this big loss during the shipping sea-
son now at hand, the Extension Ser
vice has issued information Card No.
21, "Prevention of Stcm-End Rot of
Watermelons," which may be had free
upon request fro mthe Extension
Service, Clemson College, S. c., or
from the county agents.
The card calls attention to the
method of treatment, which consists
of recutting the stems at the cars
and painting them with Bordeaux
paste; and to the method of making
the paste by using 8 ounces of blue
stone and ounces of starch to one
gallon of water, this quantity of
paste being sufficient to treat two to
four carloads Of melons. This home
made paste is easily made according
to the instructions given and may be
kept a week or ten days if desired in
glass or earthen vessels. A CONNER,
cial paste may now be obtained also.

The alleged attempt at hold-up
occurred when the boy became lost
in trying to return from the down.
town section to his uncle's home
Smith accosted him and offered to
show him the way.
The youngsters story that he
overpowered Smith an dtook his gun
came in for sharp questioning by
officials investigating the case.
Basing their disbelief on the fact
that the boy is much smaller than
Smith, IL trained athlete of the fire
department force, the officials called
upon him to demonstrate his self
acquired art of self defense. This
the youngster did by handling
burly policeman in apparently easy
fashion.

MANY BIRDS
PERISH in
APRIL STORMS
Hundreds Found Dead In
Southern New
England

According to State Ornitho- 10
gist Edward H. Forbush of Mass.
the storms Of April decimated the
ranks of migrating birds fearfully
great numbers perishing in the
snow storm, followed bv low tenn
perature, which came during the
first week of them onth. This was
true more especially of lower New
England than in the northern sec
ton as a greater number of birds
had reached the former locality.
Explaining the situation, Mr.
Forbush writes:
April in southern New England
has been cool and backward, with
floods from excessive rain anC
melting SHOWS, and only a few
warm days. During the warm per
iods bird migration moved with a
rush. In cool weather it has gone
slowly. Before during and after the
cold wave and snowstorm Canada
geese were seen flying southwark
along the Connecticut valley and
in New York state, and in Middle
sew county, Mass, and in Hamp-
shire and Hampden counties large
numbers of small birds were seen
flying south or southwest before
and during the storm and return
ing after it had passed. In the
Connecticut valley region birds
from the hills appeared to concen-
trate in the valley, and swarms of
birds appeared on the coast of
Connecticut.
A foot of snow and a sharp drop
in temperature proved too much
for the birds all over southern New
England. Great focks Of Fox
Sparows, checked or turned back
in migration, rathered wherever
food could be found. Many people
never saw so many Fox Sparrows
Hundreds of birds sought shelter
in barn cellars or in open barns
or sheds, and many died of starva-
ton, while others full fed and ap-
p2rently in good condition We're
found dead. One farmer reported
% dead birds around his buildin IS.
Others found dead birds when re-
moving piles Of brush unoer which
storm-bound birds had found shell
ter.
Bluebirds probably suffered most
They sought shelter in hollow trees
and bird houses, and no doubt peo-
pie who search such hiding places
will find dead birds there. Numbers
of .JuncOS. Tree SDarrOWS. Fox
Sparrows and Robins were picked
up. Many were so weak that cats
easily caught them. Some were eat
en- by hungry crows Some were
killed by flying ,.gainst buildings
in the storm. The great majority,
however, came through alive. The
brave birds sang in the face of the
white death. In some places the
chorus of bird songs even before
the storm had cleared away, was
unprecedented for this season.

DANISH FARMERS MAY

COPENHAGEN, May 15-Pro-
lection of the interests of the
farmer has become as important
an issue in the Danish Parliament
as in the United States Congress.
On the one hand the govern
ment is being criticized by the
trade unionists and some other
political organizations on the
ground that the government is
treating the farmers too paternal-
ly. On the other hand the Dan
ish Farmers Association, a strong
organization, is hectoring the
government for not protecting
the farmers interests and for al
legged failure to fulfill the govern
ment's policy Of strict economy in
state affairs.
The farmers association is
threatening to form an indepen-
dent political partly unless the
government takes care of their
interests more satisfactory.
AS showing need of greater eco
nomy in government affairs it is
pointed out that the Danish state
railways-and nearly all of the
railways in Denmark are owned
by the government-show a net
loss for the last month of 38,4O0,-
900 kronor (about $7,680,000 at
current rates of exchanged
Higher wages coupled with in
creased passenger fares and
freight rates and state official
management are blamed here as
the chief reasons for this costly
result Of allowing the state to
own and operate the railways.
