THOUSANDS OF WILD
GEESE

Many motorists have journeyed,
recently to the farm of R. R. M. Car.
penter, on the Elkton-C ecilton road
near Bohemia river, to view the
thousands of wild geese which have
been feeding in large alfalfa and
wheat fields along the highway.
Residents of the county living
nearby estimated that between 1000
and 5000 geese could be seen every
day feeding in the fields within few
hundred yards, of the roadside.
Mr.. Carpenter has kept large num-
bers of live decoy geese and ducks
on his estate, and he was using his
entire corn crop to keep the geese
feeding on his property.
Sportsmen in this vicinity reported
they never had seen such large flocks
of ducks and geese in one spot be-
fore. Early morning and late even
ing was said to be the best time to
catch sight of hem.-Cecil Democrat.

STATE FORESTER BESLEY
ADDRESSES sPORTSMEN

A record meeting Of the Izaak
Walton League of Bel Air and invit-
ed guests was addressed last We'd
nesdary by State Forester F. w.
Besley at Bel Air Court House.
About go persons were in attendance
including members Of the Bel Air
Volunteer Fire Company and several
local boy scouts. The talk was illus
strated by lantern slides and was
terminated by motion pictures illus
trating the relation of the forests to
fish and game.
The State Forester outlined in
some detail the various state forestry
projects and discussed the plan de-
veloped blythe State Forestry Depart
ment for assisting woodland owners.
He indicated that the practice of
intensive forest management by
property owners in Hartford and
Baltimore Counties is of great impor-
lance, due to the absence of large
publicly owned forest and the impor-
lance of protecting municipal water
sheds and woodland cover for game.
Proper forestry management can be
put into effect by property owners
through woodland development,
planting programs, intelligent wood
land thinning and fire protection,
according to Mr.. Besley.
In urging attention to local forestry
needs the forester indicated THAT the
natural conditions of timber growth
in Maryland are so good, that il
forest fires are controlled and pre-
vented, our timber resources can be
steadily built up. Mr.. Besley added
that the United States is the most
extravagant user of wood of any
nation, using 200 cubic feet per
capita as compared to Europe's &c
cubic feet per capita. The State
Forester also indicated that millions
of dollars are spent annually for
domestic water supplies, flood con-
troll and dredging of channels, all Of
which proves inadequate unless
attention is given to stream sources
and the proper care and protection
Of drainage areas through establish
ment of forest cover.

WASHINGTON B1CENTEN.
NAL TREE PLANTING

There is a popular move
ment spreading over the entire
country for planting of trees
in memory of George Washing
ton, according to a statement
by F. w. Besley, State Forester.
Beginning in the South on Feb
ruary 22nd, these memorial tree
paintings will extend north
ward and westward as the sea-
son advances. Plans now under
way insure the planting OF
many thousands of trees in this
Bicentennial Year.
The tree planting program is
as diverse as the interests cen
tering in the celebration OF
the Washington Bicentennial.
There is scarcely a school in
the land that will not observe
the event; most of them, no
doubt, will celebrate by tree
planting.
Most of the memorial tree
planting will probably be done
Arbor Day, which is celebrated
by schools and is dedicated to
the planting of trees, it is also
widely observed by civic and
patriotic organizations in the
planting of trees on public
grounds and along highways.
Maryland is joining in this
general movement. Under the
Roadside Tree Law, which has
been in operation for a great
many years, trees planted along
the highway have special pro-
lection. Roadside planting is
being taken up actively by the
various patriotic organizations
and garden clubs. These plant
ings will constitute permanent
and enduring monuments to
the memory of George Wash
ington, and at the same time be
of great service in beautifying
the highways.
The Forestry Department is
prepared to furnish suitable
trees for planting along public
highways at the lowest possible
cost, and is cooperating with all
agencies undertaking at this
time memorial planting. One
of the patriotic organizations
has arranged with the Forestry
Department to plant an acre of
pines on the Patapsco State
Forest, and dedicate it to the
memory of George Washington.
Arbor Day, which will occur
early in April on a date set by
proclamation of the Governor,
will be the termination Of these
! tree planting celebrations.
There is every indication that
this year will break all records
in public tree planting in
Maryland.

Maryland Livestock Values
Decrease In 1881

The total value OF all live
stock on Maryland farms on
Jan. 1, this year was estimated
at 22,108,0O0, according to
Richard G. Ross, agricultural
statistician for the Maryland
Crop Reporting Service. This
is a decrease of nearly &c per
cent from the corresponding
value of $50, $50, 900 of livestock
on hand January l a year ago,
and of about AZ per cent form
the $38, 100000 estimated on
January l, 1880.
The decline in values during
the past two years is due almost
entirely to lowered values per
head of all classes of livestock.
There has been no change in
total number of cattle during
the two-year period, and the
number of horses, sheep and
swine have declined only
moderately.
While the total number Of
cattle is still the same as on the
first Of 1881 and 1880, there
have been some changes in the
classification of cattle. Milk
cows increased from 10000 at
the first of 1880 to $4,000 on
January /, 1881, and to 10000
on January 1 this year. Milk
heifers (1-2 year old) declined
sharply in numbers in the past
year.
Swine numbers have dropped
of considerably in the past two
years, being now estimated at
100000 head, compared with
10000 head last year and
10000 head on January 1,
1880. Horse and sheep numbers
have declined moderately DUNG
the same period but the number
OF mules has remained about
the same.
