SAVE THE HOLLOW TREES

Even dead trees play their part in
conservation and several bird socie-
ties Throughout the country are push
ing a campaign to save hollow trees
as BODYBUILDING sites for insectivor-
Gus birds.
Many species of valuable birds in
Guiding all the woodpeckers nest in
hollow trees and stumps, and if these
shelters are not found in one section
they will migrate to a place that
meets their needs.
While lifeless trees or stumps are
not often regarded as having artist
ic value to well kept grounds, they
can be made to add to the beauty Of
any property besides serving an adj
vantage to valuable birds. Excessive
limbs or parts of the trunk can be
cut off or stump followed out and
the remainder covered with vines to
relieve it's nakedness. = American

WOOD DUCK IN CALIFORNIA

Agents of the California game and
fish commission report marked in
crease of wood duck during the past
few years.
This species has been protected by
law everywhere since the adoption of
the migratory bird treaty and the re-
suit has been apparent in many
parts of the country.
One warden reports that at least
5000 wood ducks congregated on Lake
Almanor in the northern part of the
state last fall and remained there un-
til the lake froze over. Another con-
centration is reported from the Butte
Creek section where several thousand
wood ducks were said to have winter
ed. This comeback is remarkable in
view of the extreme scarcity of the
species when first given protection.

NEW CHIEF RASPBERRY

For the benefit of folks who may
not be familiar with the new variety,
Mr.. Alderman offers the following
description: "The plants of Chief are
very hardy, vigorous, productive, and
excellent plant makers; canes are

all-important question for the prac-
teal poultryman will be answered at
the third annual Poultry Short
Course and Breeders Conference at
University Farm, September 20 to
25. The subject will be discussed by
two of the states leading breeders
of production birds, c. j. Street of
White Bear, and Fred Moore of
Anoka. Following the talks, all
short course visitors will be given
actual practice in selecting pullets.
Other general topics to be taken
up during the course will include
feeding for winter egg production,
by G. H. Ghostley, White Leghorn
breeder, Anoka, and Mrs. c. j.
Street; poultry diseases, by DR.. c. P.
Fitch, chief in veterinary, University
Farm; and eradication of worms, by
T. H. Garfield, Jr., st. Paul Hatchery.
The benefits to the poultry breed
er from certification by the American
Poultry association will be present

ing breeds of poultry will come in
for special study and visitors will be
given practice in Judging them.
Among the authorities who will give
the descriptions and supervise judg-
ing work are Prof. A. C.. Smith,
poultry chief, University Farm; E.
A. Johnson, also of the university
poultry staff; Glen Richards, poultry

OCH'S BRIX NINE
TO STAR NICK CULLOP

Instead of the usual "sauerkraut
day" Springfield will put on a Com
munity Fall Frolic Wednesday, Oct
ober !. Through the cooperation of
the Brown and Redwood Farm Bur-
eaus, eight townships will have
booths from Brown county, and Red
wood county will be represented by
several.
Farmers and merchants will join
in a big parade and it is estimated
no less than forty floats, represent
ing business establishments and
farm bureau units.
Former State Senator T. E. Cash
man, Owatonna, prominent farm
leader, is scheduled to deliver mes
sage of interest to all. Loud speak
ers will be used during the program
making it audible to everyone.
The signing of Nick Cullop, cham
pion home run hitter of the American
Association, who has been sold to
the Cincinnati Reds of the National
League by Minneapolis, to play with
the Och's Brix team will prove one
of the outstanding attractions of the
day for sporting fans. Cullop will
also give an exhibition of his pitch
ing ability for a few innings, it was
agreed, but his hitting will be the
thriller of the game it is anticipated.
There will be free acts, dances, rid
es, and concessions, and music by the
Orpheus and Wilhart's organizations.

$4,000 Spent by
Hunters Annually
Estimate Based on 1000 Lii
censes Issued to County
SpOrtsmen

Approximately $4,000 is invested
in guns, ammunition and hunting
equipment by Redwood county sports
men.
Basing this estimate on the 1000
licenses purchased from the County
Auditors office it is determined that
if a hunter buys on a average
of six boxes Of shells, at an
average cost of S1.00 a box of 25,
$4,000 is spent for ammunition &C
cording to this basis of calculation.
Taking a conservative figure of
$500 as the average value of a
shotgun, the total valuation is $685.
900.
1t is assumed that the average
cost of a hunters clothes and incl
dental equipment can safely be esti-
mated at SIS. This adds $4,000 to
the total.
Naturally a hunter spends at least
So during the hunting season for
miscellaneous things, cleaning rods,
recoiiF pads, brushes and general
equipment. This increases the amount
by $4,000.
Summing up these figures a total
of $4,000 is calculated to be invest
ed by sportsmen throughout the
county. And boats and camping
equipment were not included in this
estimate as the average hunter is
without them.

PEAT IMPROVES SOILS
WHEN PUT ON GARDENS

Peat, added to garden soil, increas-
es its water holding capacity, facil-
itates drainage, improves the physic-
al condition, and leads to better aera-
ton, says l.. E. Longley of the divi-
sion of horticulture, University Farm.
The important thing to observe, Mr..
Longley says, is to be sure that peat
is we'll mixed with the soil, otherwise
it may Interfere with the water
movements. But if properly mixed
it puts the soil in better shape, espe-
cially for seed termination.
Because peat is of organic origin it
adds humus to the soil, according to
Mr.. Longley. 1t is slower in break
ing down than is manure or sod, but
it gives much the same results if pro-
perly treated. There are two differ
ent types of peat, known widely as
low-lime and nighttime peat, or as
acid and neutral or alkaline peat.
AS these terms indicate, some types
of peat are not suitable for growing
many of our crops until lime has
been added. On the other hand, there
are plants that require this acid peat,
and for this reason this type has
value in connection with the propaga-
ton of certain plants.
The chemical composition of peat
is important, Mr.. Longley points out.
In general, it is high in nitrogen.
However, much of this nitrogen is
not readily available or only slowly
available. In any case, some nitro
gen can be proftably supplied in
view of the other advantages found in
peat. However, peat is usually low
in potash and PHOSPHORUS and it is
necessary to supply these elements
to make up their deficiency.

LA PLATA. Md, September 13.--The
County Board Of Education at It's Sep
TENDER meeting authorized the purchase
of Is additional desks to accommodate
the increased enrolment at La Plata
High School.
The board also decided to enlarge the
transportation service on the Pomfret-
White Plains and the Mattawoman-
Waldorf bus routes to relieve the over
crowded condition that prevails on these
two routes. Both Of these buses trans
port pupils to the La Plata School.
A delegation, with George Carpenter
as principal speaker, came before the
board and asked that transportation be
supplied for the children in Mount Vic
toria section to the Glasva High School.
The board promised that effort would
be made to care for these children.
Plans were also decided upon to trans
port Katherine Mills and Marion Han
cock to La Plata High School. These
girls completed junior work at that
school last year. A change in bus
routes left them without transportation
this Fall.
The board ordered liability insurance
be placed on all buses transporting
school children. The board will pay
one-half the premium and the con-
tractor will pay the other half.

was awarded to Carl Lyon, who was
graduated in June from Lackey High
School. He is a son of Mr.. and Mrs.
