this delicious combination, provided
you know where wild plum grows.
There are still some spots where
these little trees may be found. The
red or yellow plum loves the edges
Of woods, close by a water course
They flourish from New York to
Texas and Colorado. The wild goose
plum Is found from Maryland to
Texas, the Canada plum from New
foundland to Manitoba and the Chick
asaw is known In the South.
The tree rarely reaches height
of over 20 feet and it has limbs
bristling with thorns. The leaves are
sharply toothed and oval They ar
rive after the lovely blossoms in April,
but they come along just before the
petals fall. The fruit is red or yellow.
The single stone, with sharp edges,
is covered with tough and acid,
puckery skin.
Eaten raw, you could not 90 into
ecstasy over the flavor. 1t is the
cooked plum, made into jelly, jam or
butter, that causes you to call for
more. Birds scatter the seeds for
the tree mothers, and this accounts
for the wide distribution.
They should be planted as orna-
mental trees. This would improve the
fruit, and they also make fine stock
on which to graft pluns that are less
sturdy.
In April, when the tree blooms, it
is a snowy white. The fragrance is

BALTIMORE, April 3.-It's a long

Quail in some sections Of the State
are fewer in number because their
eggs are eaten by skunks. Lecompte
said The number OF skunks is in
creasing because persons who for
merly trapped them are receiving re-
lief, he continued.
Relief rolls, however. are not the
only reason for the increase in the
number Of skunks, he explained.
Il feel the increase of the skunk
has been partly due to the fact that
the majority of these fur.nearins ami

merly trapped by farmers sons, Who
for the last few years, have not been
as active in the trapping and con-
trolling Of this species Of verrnin as
they should be-" Lecompte said in
his annual report.
Again, I feel the welfare relief
has caused great many people who
formerly trapped to discontinue the
same due to the fact they are receiv-
ing funds from the Government"
Several months ago, Lecompte said,
the depression, reducing the price Of
furs. had also reduced trapping.
