 Dear Mr. Williams:
 It isn't often that an editor asks WHY. More often he tells why In response to that editorial query of yours lately. replies are probably a-plenty and l would add another to that volume.
 Theodore Roosevelt wrote a book once a theme of which was h. dividual Initiative. It listed that virtue predominately that has been so markedly American in the found ing and expansion of America. It strikes me that it's absence is a cause of your query, and that fos- tering and application of individ- ual initiative is an answer.

He and his assistants hope to
breed and, with the aid of Federal

bracon in huge numbers on cotton
fields throughout the South not
later than the spring of 1943.
DR.. Goldsmith believes the para
site will prove a better method OF
control than poison busting, which.
he says, has made thousands of
acres relatively infertile and unpro-
ductive due to accumulation of
poison.
While microbracon. developed as
a control method in the university s
experimental fields, will destroy the
weevil and worm, the scientist eau
toned that farmers should not
blame every chewed leaf on these
two pests. Other insects also are
fond of the cotton plant.

Barking Remedies
Keep Dog Quiet So
Neiehbors Sleep

Like a good many human beings.
some dogs talk too much. While
barking may be just a sign that your
pup isn't man-shy, or is on the alert
for providers, 1t may also be highly
annoying to your neighbors. And. In
many communities, it's illegal, and
you'll have to dispose of your dog or
cure him.
When alone in his kennel at night,
Rover is apt to see or hear more
things than boy who's just read a
mystery thriller. Or he may just like
to hear himself bark-but it's q safe
bet that the harassed neighbors,
trying to sleep, don't.
The first and simplest remedy is to
give him his supper as late as 1t is
conveniently possible. The food will
make Rover drowsy, and he Il be less
apt to howl at shadows. Another
easily applied corrective measure Is
blanket covering most Of the
entrance to his kennel. That way,
he won't see as much.
If these don't work. you'll have to
get fairly tough. When he starts
barking at night. stick your head
out of the window and call to him
in a reassuring and Arm, II sleepy.
voice. If this doesn't work (and 1t
won't If your dog is chronic

II the warnings fail, you'll have to
60 down to the yard, catch Rover In
the act, and punish him. You may
have to hit him with q folded news
paper or spray him steadily with .
garden hose. II Ill else fails, put his
muzSle on when he starts barking.
He'll probably get the idea altar
that's repeated few times.

By K. X. Taynton.

The search for suitable dogs for
the armed forces is still going on.
The goal of 125, 900 dogs trained and
ready to help our men is far from
met. However, it is an objective that
is being gradually approached. Dogs
for Defense, Inc, is still the prime
recruiting agent for all the arms OF
the service, although both the Army
and the Coast Guard are accepting
dogs offered by individuals directly to
them.
The Coast Guard now has an esti-
mated 200 dogs already in service
and about 300 in training. There are
two chief training centers for Coast
Guard dogs. one in Connecticut.
which is being closed shortly, and
cne near Philadelphia, on the Wild
ener estate. This spot will be well
remembered by local dog-show ex-
hibitors who always enjoyed the
Elkins Park dog show there. In
turning over his ample kennel facil-
tiles for training Coast Guard dogs,
Mr.. Widener specified that only
German shepherds be used for this
.ervice. He become interested in this
breed when he was soldier IN
France in World War I. However,
this specification will probably have
to be eliminated since there are not
sufficient dogs CT this breed being
offered to supply the demand.
1t would seem that the dogs Of the
retriever breeds, Chesapeakes, Lab
radors and Golden, would make
especially valuable dogs for this
branch of the service. They are
especially noted for their brains and
courage. Their coats are peculiarly
adapted for work on both land and
in icy water. They have superb
noses and have acquitted themselves
very we'll in the obedience test trials.
Breeds which are particularly ac-
ceptsble are the dogs in the working
group which weigh between so and
so pounds. These are boxers, Dober-
man pinschers, collies, Belgian and
German shepherds. Few of the
s',orting dogs or hounds are desired
Kerry blues and Airedales are salts
factory representatives from that
group. Neither the transporting nor
the toy group can cffer their services
to the armed forces. but their repre-
sentatives can do yeoman service on
the home front. Even the tiniest toy
Cog makes an efficient burglar alarm
and there is no measuring the extent
of it's contribution to morale.
The bugaboo of food shortages
for dogs keeps cropping up. Re-
Gently rumor was spread that even
horse meat would no longer, be
available. There is no foundation
for this rumor. There is an ample
supply of this meat in all its forms
Ground straight. ground with bone
sliced. and sliced hearts. Practica
experience with this meat in dos
feeding for over three years ha'
proven that it is not only an eco.
nomical food but that it is mos

with good grade of kibble O.
