TELLS PRESIDENT ILLS
OF FARMERS OVERDRAWN
Robert A. Cooper Thinks Agri-
cultural Situation Is Not as
Serious as Reported.

Robert A. Cooper, commissioner and
executive officer Of the Federal Farm
Loan Bureau. told President Coolidge
Yesterday that the agricultural situa-
ton generally throughout the United
states Is not so serious as reports would
cause one to believe.
He said there Is some distress. espe-
c:ally among the wheat growers, and
that relief IS absolutely necessary, but
in his opinion - per cent Of the cries
for help are merely psychological and
that the remaining % cent is genuine
and worthy Of consideration. He said
that the wheat growers must stand
their loss Just the same as any busi-
ness does. Mr.. Cooper was accom-
panied to the White House by the
other me mbers OF the bureau, who wish
"a to pay their respects to tho new

BY JOHN MARTIN.

The opening OF the "rced-bird" sea-
son next Saturday will bring both JOY
and sorrow to District citizens. Hunt
ers are looking forward TO the day with
eagerness, but bird lovers with regret.
To the latter the ''reed-brd" is Il song
ster and should not be killed as game.
He is, indeed. none other than the bobo-
link--a blithe musician that has fixed
the imagination of poets since ancient
times.
Still, a third name has been given
him, that of "rice-bird." This un-
fortunate little minstrel cannot resist
the lure of the wild rice fields he
passes over on his autumual migra-
tionS to South America, and when he
stops for refreshments he frequently
pays with his life.
EulOGixed by Writers.
Few birds have been 50 eulogized in
literature as has the hobolink. That
doubtless is because he is such an
ecstatic singer. His Is a wholc-souled
effort, an unrestrained outburst of per
feet joy. Nellie Blanchnw. eminent
ornithologiSr, describes IL thus:
''On a May morning, when but
tercups spangle the fresh grasses
in the meadows, this roIficking.
jolly fellow rises from their midst
into the air with the merriest
frolic of song you ever heard.
Loud, clear, strong. full Of queer
kinks and twists that could not
possibly be written down in our
musical scale. this ripping, rcck-
less music seems to keep his wings
in motion as well as his throat;
for. when il suddenly bursts forth.
up he shoots into the air like Il
Skylark, and paddles himself along
with just the tips OF his wings,
while II is the mad music that
seemingly propels him--thcn he
drops with his song into the grass
again"
