OUTDOORS

Because of the tremendous in
crease in their numbers and their
propensity for eating duck food, at
times literally right out of hle
mouths of the diving ducks, the
United States Fish and Wild Life
Service and Ducks Unlimited are
urging sportsmen to include coots
in their daily bag limit up to the
legal rs permitted. The coot is not
a duck and is not to be confused
with the scoters, which often are
called coots, but which are true
ducks. Coot breasts, skinned out
and properly cooked, are delicious.
A number of interesting recipes for
cooking coot may be obtained by
writing the United States Fish and
Wild Life Service, Merchandise
Mart, Chicago, 81, Ill.
Speaking of cooking recipes, the
following from Ray Trullinger in
New York is tops and saves peck
of trouble in preparing your wild
ducks: First skin and remove the
M llldhAllS quiz bAtdo llO Ch4l
or fat remains. Wash away blood
clots, if any, and remove any small
feathers which may have been
driven into the flesh by shot. Next,
sprinkle the breasts with flour, salt
and suspicion of pepper. Then
slap a generous slab Of butter on
each breast. Next shove the duck
breasts into a hot oven-450 to 500
degrees-and cook for not more
than 80 minutes. Baste about every
S minutes. You can tell how things
are progressing by testing with a
fork. Medium rare takes about 25
minutes, well done about 80 minutes.
Serve piping-hot right from the oven
and make certain every one has a
sharp steak knife, and forget that
wild rice nonsense. Serve whipped
spuds, cranberry sauce and a green
salad nothing else. Don't cook
mergansers, old squaws, scoters and
whistlers."

An acute carachc, if accom-
panied by fever and prostration in
man, woman OF child, is one of the
most serious conditions that car
happen. The ear is a haphazard
kind of a mechanism. 1t does seem
as if it could have been constructed
better. Insects have much more
sensible ears than we have. But we
inherited ours from the fishes who
have to hear under water and from
the birds who have to have a very
nice sense of equilibrium and have
to know from which direction their
enemies are approaching. SO some
how the balancing apparatus of
the body got closely hooked up
with the hearing apparatus and
then the actual hearing apparatus
had to be separated from the ear
drum by an air space and con
nected with several little bones
and that is the middle ear, and
that is where all the trouble arises.
The air space Of the middle ear
and the movement Of its bones re-
quires that it be not dead space but
that the ear drum have some play
SO this is arranged by the Eusta-
chan tube, which goes from the
middle ear to the throat. You can
always prove the function Of the
Eustachian tube by pinching your
nostrils together, shutting your
mouth and forcibly breathing out,
when you will feel your ear drums
crack because the air goes up the
Eustachian tube and fills the mid
die ear.
Germs do the same thing under
circumstances. A sore throat, a
pharyngltls, or any o or throat
infection may wander up the
Eustachian tube, light in the mid
die ear, find it is a nice warm place
to breed, 80 they form pus and

That obstacle was the island Of Pam

Then the real 'triphibious' effort

Pistol-Pac kin' Fish Shoots
Water at Its Prey Ashore

The archer fish of Southeastern
Asia is prepared for trouble for it
carries a gun. It's weapon consists
of tube-like mouth from which it
can propel a tiny jet Of water ac-
curately for some feet. When the
archer sees an insect resting on
plant or other object above, it
sneaks up, then shoots, wetting its
prey and causing it to fall into the
water where the archer gobbles
it up.
The amount of water which the
fish elects is only a couple of
drops but the Hbullet'' has speed
and force.
