GEORGE WASHINGTON p

In month replete with notable birthdays and
anniversaries, February % stands out in the minds
of Americans the date of greatest significance the
birthday of George Washington.
AS national holiday it is perhaps second only
to the Fourth of July while matter of fact it is
probably anniversary of even higher Importance,
because without Washington the struggling colon
les might not have made the Declaration of indie
pendence effective.
Although much that is legendary has been as
ISOLATED with the life of Washington due principally
to the zeal of Parson Weems, his early biographer,
the main facts of his inestimable service stand unim
peached, and his fame takes added luster with
the years.
Leading poorly trained, i'll equipped and some
times mutnous army, Washington kept aflame the
fires of patriotism when a less determined and less
capable commander might have given up in despair.
While aid from France finally utrned the scale in
favor of the colonies, without Washington's genius
and heroic persistence the Continental Army would
have been crushed into submission before that aid
arrived
1t is well that we should honor his memory
his birthday and on all other days, but nothing
may say or do add to subtract from the price
less heritage epitomized in the deathess of

while to select a really good place
for the incubator, says Miss Cora
Cooke, extension specialist in poul-
try, University Farm, st. Paul. "a
well-ventilated basement" she ex-
plains, sis best. The next best place
is a north room. Any room must
be we'll ventilated and free from
odors and gases, such as come from
decaying vegetables.
"a good scrubbing and disinfect-
ing of the incubator before putting
in the eggs will help prevent pullor-
UNI disease. Dry and air out the
machine with the lamp going.
do set up the incubator and
run it several days before the eggs
should be set
do supply moisture regularly,
every day, if needed at all.
"Do test the eggs before setting
to weed out those with very porous
shells.
Don't crowd eggs in trays so
they stand on end.
Don't run the incubator in an
alright room.
Don't open the machine oftener
than absolutely necessary after the

THE PASSING VETERANS

According to the adjutant-generas' office in
Washington 2128948 Union soldiers served in the
Civil War, while the best estimates place the num-
Der of Confederates at between 100000 and 100000
accurate record being available.
The government pension roll shows only 27673
Union veterans, while recent survey places the
number Of living Confederates at more than TO-
406 This it will be seen, shows fairly equal per-
centage of survivors of the two armies.
Considering that it will be 60 years on April 9
since Lees surrender, it seems remarkable that
the numbers mentioned still aiive, as one who
was boy soldier only Is years old at the close of
the war would be 83. However, when it is re-
membered that the last survivor of the Mexican War
lived more than 80 years after the end of that strg
gle, it may be expected that good many Civil War
veterans have several more years ahead of them.

Safety Zones" to Save Birds
In Rural Areas

Safety Zones" for wild life as
well as humans is necessary for it's
protection, and now is the time to
establish them when so much
woodcutting is going on in the rur-
al districts, according to a bulletin
of the American Game Association.
Piled brush and tree tops will es-
tablish Safety Zones" officials of
the Iowa Fish and Game Depart
ment who have worked out an ideal
method.
One may establish a Safety
Zone" and shelter for game and
song birds by simply piling the
waste brush, not haphazardly, but
with careful consideration of the
feeding habits or quail, pheasants
or other birds thatinhabit the farm,
Iowa's game management experts
point out.
"a brush pile should be located
not more than so to Is yards from
a natural feeding ground of the
birds. Then, with the appearance
of predator such as a hawk or a
ground animal, the birds can
"scoot" to safety in their brush
refuge. Fifteen minutes and a lit
tie elbow grease" will suffice to
build a new brushpile or renovate
an old one.
An old brushpile which has set
tied down so tightly that The birds

cannot run into it is useless as a
Safety Zone" It should be~depiled,
with care being taken to arrange
the branches in such way as to
allow entrances and runways for
the birds beneath the branches.
Often times the old brushpila
must be moved to a point nearer
the natural food Of the birds before
it can be of any use to them.
Many farmers have found it prac-
teal to reverse the procedure; they
have furnished the birds a feeding
station near group of brushpiles.
This is easily done, the experts ex-
plain, by piling bundles of fodder
with the grain partially husked, in
to Indian tepee structure which will
furnish both food and protection
for the birds.

Colleges Urged to Install Wild
Game CurricuIa

81 am a ranch woman, and
have lived here in the sand hills of
northern Nebraska for 35 years.
know how the game birds and fur
animals are decreasing in numbers
We women have raised poultry for
profit to help make living. Why
couldn't we make as much or
more profit or make better living
raising game? We could charge the
hunters a reasonable amount for
shooting on our land or charge by
the bird. We would then be in
creasing the wild life, making our
own living, and giving untold
pleasure to thousands of sportsmen
now and for the next generation
to come"
Thus a woman of Nebraska's
wind-swept ranches wrote in query
to Major L. w. T. Waller, Jr., con-
servationist of Meadowbrook, Pa,
after reading an article, The Need
for Educated Man-Power,' written
by him in the Omaha Journal
Stockman.
This woman has touched the
heart of game restoration-to get
the landowners interested in game
production, according to officials of
the American Game Association.
She further requested facts on how
to raise wild life and practice game
management in the wild.
Stock answers could be given to
her-which might or might not At
the case. This ranch woman, ap-
parently eager to cooperate with
the State and the sportsmen, has
no place to go to learn the facts as
they would apply to other states
and her particularly locality.
Conservationists declare that here
is the vital need of restoration -
to supply accurate data for every
locality. And they point out that
the proper place, and probably the
only place, will be the state univer-
sites and agricultural colleges, to
develop and disseminate such data.
There were three major points
made by Major Waller. One, that
game is a crop of the land and
should be farmed as such; another,
that scientific research is impera-
tive to find the necessary facts; and
that educated man-power is neces-
sary to apply them to develop game
as a crop.
The tax payers are now paying
for such services in maintaining
their state universities and agricul-
tural colleges, but, except in rare
instances, they are not getting
them, Major Wallor said in effect.
Sportsmen, scientists and conser-
vationists are urged to interest their
respective state universities and
agricultural colleges in developing
the necessary data and offering
courses in game management to ed
ucate man-power, such as this
ranch woman, augmented by many
thousands of her sisters, husbands
and children desire, officials of the
Association state.

Painted Trees Keep Bre'r Rabbit

Painted Trees Keep Bre'r Rabbit
and Mickey Mouse Away
Mickey Mouse and Bre'r Rabbit
are getting busy now with their
mid-winter gnawing of trees, often
girdling and killing young trees. Of
icials of the American Game AS
ISOLATION offer two representatives. as
worked tout at the University Farm
of the University of Minnesota, st.
Paul, as an aid to farmers and
landowners. Much of the damage
charged to Bre'r Rabbit is really the
work of Mickey Mouse, or rather
the little field mouse, but Bre'r
Rabbit does his share, conserva-
tionists> declare.
Nov is the time to paint trees
in woodlots, windbreaks or or
chards to prevent rabbits (and
mice) from girdling them when veg
citation is so scarce" Parker An
derson, extension forester of the
University Farm, advises.
The following formula, Mr.. An
derson says, has proven satisfac.
tory in preventing rabbit attack
on trees; one peck of lime, Stacked
in soft water, to which one-half
gallon of crude carbolic acid, one
half gallon of gas tar and four
pounds of sulphur are added and
stirred thoroughly. While the So
luton is hot, it should be applied
with a paint brush to the tree
trunks as far up as the rabbits may
be able to reach during the winter
months.
Another effective treatment is the
sulfonated oil method, devised by
DR.. r. B. Harvey, also of the Uni
versity Farm. Besides being very
cheap and effective, this treatment
may be applied with spray, great
ly reducing labor.
Taking advantage of Mickey
Mouse's timidity, the clearing away
of all cover for yard or so
around the base of the trees, often
keeps Mickey from venturing
across the open space to the tree,
conservationists point out.

this region, the first planting usual
ly should be made as early in the

: The vegetable crops may be
grouped into several classes in re-
spect to cold resistance:
1. Winter-hardy crops, not in
jured by severe mid-winter freez-
ing. Can be planted as early in
the spring as the ground can be
prepared. Asparagus, horseradish,
rhubarb and winter onions belong
in this group.
2. Hardy crops, which will with
stand hard frosts, but not severe
freezing. Kale, kohlrabi, spinach,
turnip, rutabaga, mustard, onion,

well as well hardened cabbage and
caulifiower plants, may be planted
