Thirteen months ago, Mrs. F. p.
Wilcox brought four parakeets-two
boys and two girls-back from Texas,
tucked the colorful little things into
corner of her living room and ex-
pected to settle down and watch the
growth Of an occasional offspring
from the chummy quartet.
A month later and Mrs. Wilcox
began to wonder whose house it was
First one, then two more cages were
needed. And still baby parakeets
arrived. With Easter still in the
ofhng, it became a daily game to
find where the next egg was laid.
After converting a huge screen
porch into noW-needed aviary,
Mrs. Wilcox made one other move
she bought a book on parakeets,
their lives and habits.
From the book Mrs. Wilcox, who
lives at 5000 Meadow Lane, Chevy
Chase. Md, learned that para
keets land parrots are distinguished
by the large size and arched form
of the upper mandible which termi-
mates in an acute point overhanging
the shorter lower mandible-inter-
esting. but hardly an explanation
for all these eggs.
She learned. too, that parakeets
are gregarious and homogeneous
chats what it said)-chummy, at
least
"Parakeets," she read. "are said
to mate for life"-oh, oh! Then she
reached the punch paragraph.
"Parakeet eggs in climate such as
Washington's hatch nine months
out of the year. The hen will lay
one egg every three days until five
or seven are laid"

Agriculture Office Has
Back-lot Poultry Show

How the suburban or village fam
lily may supplement with poultry
the scant amounts of meat available
under rationing is demonstrated in
an exhibit on display today in the
patio of the Agriculture Depart
ment's Administration Building.
Features of the exhibit are Is live
Rhode Island Red hens and so baby
chicks, placed in a typical backyard
setting. The show will be open from
9 am. to $50 pm. daily, except
Sunday, through April 7.
Department officials estimate this
number of hens and the chicks they
develop in a year will provide 372
pounds of eggs and dressed poultry
meat without reducing the size of
the flock by single hen.
This calculation takes into ac-
count minor losses of about five
birds among the chicks and the lay
ing flock. Superior stock, it is
pointed out, will exceed the 372-
pound total, especially in eggs, and
even birds of only fair quality, kept
by inexperienced persons, should
yield at least two-thirds the supply.
The so young chicks are kept in a
homemade brooder, with wire i'm
closed runway. Publications on
backyard poultry are supplied Wis

Two Washington Men
Are Prisoners in Reich

GERS taken prisoner by the Axis, who

Hughes, lives at 1908 Alton place

disclosed, Is Brig. Gen. Nicholson,

BY this time. Mrs. Wilcox had II
parakeets chattering away in their
improvised aviary. The only reason
the number stopped there, tempo
rarily, was that Mrs. Wilcox thought
parakeets were like chickens-one
hen would set on pile of eggs and
they would all hatch at once. Be-
cause of this, she threw away lot
of eggs thinking they were bad
and not realizing that any given egg
might have been laid just a few
minutes before she found it.
Soon Mrs. Wilcox discovered that
parakeets were fun, If plentiful. She
built little houses for the birds,
scooped out a little egg-sized notch
in the bottom of the houses for the
eggs to hatch in and resigned her
self to raising parakeets.
There are still some difficulties.
The lady parakeets still lay eggs all
over the porch-yesterday she found
two eggs inside a blanket which she
had put on top one OF the cages.
Then there's Polly the Terrible.
Polly is one of Mrs. WilcoX's origi-
nal four parakeets. Polly had her
eve on a certain bird house last
year and promptly killed a rival
female for possession. Yesterday
Polly did it again and another para
keet bit the dust. Polly was locked
up" in a cage of her own.
The birds have grown to know
Mrs. Wilcox and she has grown to
like them-all of them, even Polly
the Terrible.
The only time little parakeets
don't arrive is in the wintertime as
the cold weather freezes the eggs
but spring is here and Mrs. Wilcox
now knows what to expect.

Plan for Bus Line

Eastman Acts After
PUG Decision to Stund
On Original Order

On the ground that the new bus
service was not justified and that
it indicated tendency which might
have serious reactions, the United
States ONCE of Defense Transpor-
tation last night banned the sched-
uled new bus route between Tenley
Circle and Macarthur boulevard, via
Loughboro road.
The question had been in dis
pute for some time between the
ODT and the District Public Util-
ties Commission. The PUG had Or
dered the new service. effective
January 81, as compensation for a
shortening of the Foxhall Village
bus run. but had delayed it's in
stallation for so days because of
ODT objections.
One of the reasons for the new
line was service to war workers
at the War Plans Division at Dale
carlia.
About two, weeks ago. however,
the PUG wrote to, ODT Director
Joseph B. Eastman saying many
inquiries had been received, that it
had found no reason to change its
decision and that unless the ODT
acted, the line would be established
as previously ordered. There was
no reaction to this until the ODT
ban was announced last night.
In issuing his order, Mr.. Eastman
said extension of bus routes and
Inauguration of new routes should be
made only to places of defense en-
ployment and military and naval
establishments or to meet situa-
tions where failure to provide such
additional service will give a def
nitely unfavorable effect on the war
