Revolutionary War Trick

Maj. David Zeigler, who upon ap-
pointment by President Jefferson be-
came the first marshal of the Ohio dis
trict, was taken prisoner in Philadel-
phia during the Revolutionary war to-
gether with two other American Off
GERS. Soon afterward the three men
escaped and, in fleeing, stopped at the
house of a German family near the
city, Major Zeigler, who had begun
his military career in the army of Fred
erick the Great, posed as Dutch doc
tor to gain the friendship of the Ger
man family. Making some pills Of
bread and water, says the Cleveland
Plain Dealer, he cured the wife of
some minor alment and the three men
were thereafter not only treated cor
daily but did not have to pay any bills
for board and lodging.

Feather in Your Cap"

The phrase, Feather in your cap"
means that something is an honor to
you. The allusion l., to the very gen.
eral custom in Asia and among the
American Indians of adding a feather
to the headgear for every enemy slain.
The ancient Lycians, and many others
had a similar custom, and it is still
usual for the English sportsman who
kills the first woodcock to pick out
feather and stick it in his cap. The
custom in one form or another seems
to be almost universal. In Hungary at
one time none might wear a feather
but he who had slain a Turk, and it
will be remembered that when Gordon
quelled the TAPPING REBELLION he was
honored by the Chinese government
with the yellow jacket and peacock s
feather"

Producers OF Wool
Face Prospects Of
Successful Season
Present Market Higher Than
Last Year With Visible
Supply Low

+. Maryland wool growers face pros.
poets for better prices this year thar
for several seasons in the opinion Of
c. E. Wise, Jr., secretary of the
Maryland Farm Bureau Wool Pool, a
cooperative marketing association OF
producers of the state.
"The visible supply Of wool on the
Boston market is about as low as il
has ever been in history" Mr.. Wise
reports. "Some manufacturers have
sufficient stocks to run their plants
for month or more, but with de-
mand of other plants on the low
visible supply, prices are expected to
hold at least the present level which is
materially above that of last year at
this time. The chief danger to the
present market prices is the POSSIBLE
ity that producers will place their
clips on the market too rapidly and
force market break"
Mr.. Wise announced that the ad-
vance payment of the cooperative at
the present time is 5 cents a pound
above the advance of a year ago. He
also reported that plans were being
considered for division of the Mary
land pool sales into early and late
marketing, with the first sales com
ing during the latter part of May. The
organization is also working on plans
to secure sheep shearing demonstra-
lions for some of the leading wool
producing counties of the state, he re-
ported.

increased its membership by 20 per-
cent in a one week campaign, accord

Seek Facts On Annual
Catch Of Fur Animals

Fur animals, valuable natural re-
source of this country, but sadly neg
lected and atrociously wasted, should
be considered in establishing policies
for land management, says Frank G.
Ashbrook, of the Biological Survey,
United States Department of Agricul-
ture.
The annual turnover in the retail
fur trade, Ashbrook points out, has
shrunk from $50O,O0O,0OO in 1929 to
$3.50, 100000, a shrinkage that cannot
be attributed wholly to drought, floods
and financial depression. 1t results in
part from an actual. scarcity of fur
animals. To what extent this is due
to overlapping and failure to pre-
serve natural habitat is not definitely
known.
eve estimate" says Ashbrook,
"that 100000 muskrats are trapped
ANNUALLY, but unfortunately we do not
know how many are being produced.
The number may be 10000, 900, which
would mean rapid determination. 1t
may be $1,000, 900, which would mean
continuing supply. We have no reli-
able facts for the country as whole,
but good business management of the
fur bearers would require something
similar to balance sheet that would
reveal the kill and the requirements. /"
The Biological Survey, therefore,
has encouraged State game agencies
issuing trapping licenses to obtain
laws requiring reports of trappers, so
that the individual States might cal
culate the number and kinds of fur
animals taken annually. This would
make possible reliable estimates on
the total annual take in the whole
country.
Seven States now require trappers
to report their catch and 10 gather
information from various sources. The
Biological Survey complies such fig
ures as are available nthe number Of
trappers and the number of fur ami.
mails taken in the various States.
