FEED THE BIRDS

Losses Of birds game, song and
insectivorous-and game animals IN
winter can. be prevented by syste-
matte feeding and we appeal to the
public of Maryland to contribute
their part in saving the remnants OF
wild life at this time. While It Is
now mid-winter, it is not too late tc
check up on the bird and game life
of your section and to intensity and
and extend facilities for feeding ana
caring for birds and game animals.
It very often happens that some
of the most destructive snow anu
sleet storms which cause tremendous
mortality of birds and game AMI
mails. occur at this season OF the
wear. Every sportsmen's club wnicn
has not already made adequate pro-
vision for feeding stations, should
do so at once.
we issued a bulletin in December.
1927. entitled Winter Feeding OF
Bob.White Quail'' which has been OF
great benefit and brought ABOUT
good results throughout the state
This bulletin can be had upon re-
quest.
Feeding stations should be estaD-
ished wherever birds can be located,
in exposed places which the wind
will sweep free of snow, or in we'll
sheltered places where snow Will nor
cover and hide the food. These
stations should be built in such Q
banner as to insure the birds OPP
portunity to escape from natural en-
emies and should be surrounded by
openings where ground enemies VIII
not have an opportunity to hide
Bundles of unthrashed grain supply

Itied to bushes or trees or placed IN
sheltered places. Brush heaps FUR
Inish excellent feeding stations Tor
birds.
Bob-white quail, ruffed grouse and
Iring-necked pheasants, properly FED,
will survive the winter and furnish
brood stock to our covers for the
coming season. They will eat and
enjoy practically all kinds OF grain
and will come near farm buildings
to secure it. Wheat, barey, mil'et
corn. oats and chick grain will furn
ish excellent diet for these birds.
Food should not be placed in large
quantities, but should be furnished
IN small quantities at FREQUENT IN
teryals. If food is placed in certain
acalities, the birds will soon learn
10 come to that section to feed at
he dinner table! Careful watch
.houid be kept for vermin near al
feeding stations, especially for wea-
sels. cats, owls and hawks and they
should be killed.
Again we appeal to the public OF
Maryland to assist In carrying over
aur brood stock for the eeming
season.
10 those who are not able to furn-

TREES FOR ROADSIDE PLANT.
ING FURNISHED BY THE
STATE DEPARTMENT
OF FORESTRY

The State Department Of Forestry
offers to furnish this spring suf-
ficient number of trees for planting
five miles of improved, public high
way. Seven species of trees are
available, willow oak, white ash,
green ash. honey locust, tulip pop
lar, larch and cypress. This list Of
fers a sufficient variety to meet q
wide range Of conditions. The trees
will be distributed to responsible
organizations, or individuals. for
planting not less than one-Quarter
mile, nor over one mile, on both
sides of the highway. There must
be sufficient space to place the trees
within the right-of way of the high
way, and far enough from the CEN
ter of the roadway to meet road re-
quirements.
Applications will be fled In the
order received, but preference will
be given to the locations that are
best adapted for tree planting and
where the greatest public benefit will
be secured. The Forestry Depart
ment will examine locations where
paintings are proposed, to deter
mine their adaptability for tree
planting, and to what extent each
meets requirements. In cases
where planting is practicable def
mite plan will then be prepared and
submitted to the parties interested.
Full particulars and application
forms will be sent upon request to
the State Department of Forestry,

SPRING SEED BED
Greater Care Assures Bigger Crops
And Protects Against Extreme
Climatic Conditions

Climatic COnd1t1OnS
Spring plowing should be done
~. rirsr because The Kurrow
snce should have time to settle and
WIN the suDsoM. Sec
ond, all the time possible should be
gwen tor the decomposition OF the
turned under organic matter.
The seed bed should be thorough
~ broken up. The particles OF soil
should be as small as possible thus
reducing The ar pocKecs ana estaD-,
l.snlng the caplliary attraction. A
thorough bleaAAng np or NE Iurfow
,.4ce mixes or distributes the humus
SO that the tiny roouiets may gather
rood and moisture and thus hasten
early growth. The pant food In the
soil is made more available by (
thorough rolling, discing and nor
rowing. Rolling presses down the
furrow slice and reunites the capil-
larry. tubes, which conduct the mois-
.ture from greater depths. This is
of vital Importance in case OF exces-
sively dry or hot weather especially
about the time the corn begins to
form the ears or when the kernels
on the cob are maturing.
Discing spring plowing has a good
effect in breaking up soil particles
and hastens decomposition of the
organic matter which lies near the
bottom of the turrow. Discine
should be done both lengthwise and
crosswise. Following the discing
combination of harrow and roller
produces an ideal seed bed. This
harrow-roller is operated by one
man with two, three or four horses
depending upon the width OF the
implement, for it is built in sections
to meet the convenience OF the farm
needs.
This Harrow-Roller so loosens the
surface as to admit air and sunlight
thus rendering plant food more
available. The physical condition OF
the soil being finer. the growing or
root area settles more closely upon
he subsoil, re-establishing capillary
connections thus assuring against
destructive droughts. Weed seeds
are brought close to the surface and
induced to terminate very early be-
cause of the admitted air, heat and
light. The weeds coming very early
are more easily destroyed than ii
they appear when corn is too tall to.

Nothing New in Murder

The popular authors Of mystery and
detective yarns are having hard time
to find new methods Of committing
murder that will have novelty and
originality. One of the best Of these,
r. Austin Freeman. In his story "As.
4 Thief In the Night" thinks he has
invented an entirely new process OF
vanking the victims Of his villains into
eternity--the absorption Of arsenic
into Ne system through the use Of
poisoned candles. But this is as old
as the Spanish inquisition, and has
even been used by Conrad in one Of
his short tales.

When buying sheets. be careful to
get them the right size for your
beds. Sheets that are too short or
too narrow do not make Tor the
comfort of the sleeper. Many
people allow at least fourteen inches
on each side for turning under and
from fourteen to eighteen inches at
each end to tuck up at the foot and
fold down over the blankets or CONF
fortables to keep them clean. Con-
sequently such sheets would be at
least twenty-eight inches wider than
the mattress and from twenty-eig1it
10 thirty-six inches longer. It is
now possible to buy sheets with the
same width hens, top and bottom.
This insures longer wear since the
sheets can be reversed. Choose
sheets that are torn before hem
ming. rather than cut, If possible,
so that the hens will iron straight.

according to a report by the Exten-
sion Service of the U. S. Department

Cows fed legume hays will give
more milk than when fed grass
hays. Because OF the greater palat-
ability of legume hays, they will eat
a larger quantity of them. and q
smaller expenditure IS required for
supplementary feeds.
Boarders ordinarily return some
profit to the clearinghouse keeper
but the 'hoarder" COW does not even
pay for her keep. Gull out the so
called boarders, or lowproducing
cows, from the dairy herd, says the
III. S. Department of Agriculture
and feed the remainder according t
their ability to produce.
1t is better to find out now wheth
er the farm tractor is in good condi-
ton than to learn later, in the busy
season, that it is not; and the only
reliable way to check it up is to rur
it for a few hours and test it
thoroughly. A tractor engine will
often run well while idling, but viii
heat or develop only part of its max
imum power when pulling heavy
load or operating machinery.
From the large trees in a wood
land a much higher percentage OF
the better and high-priced grades Of
lumber can be cut than from the
smalle rones. The owner OF the
farm woods gets more for his work
by cutting only the larger logs. For
example, the total value of the lum-
Der In 26-inch tree is some SO
times that Of the umber in s-inch
tree, although the volume is only
I1s times as great. One Of the chief
advantages of selective cutting is
that it makes possible the removal
Of the greatest value with the least
volume.
