These Wise MuIlurds Nuke
Ducks Soup Of Migration

BRIGHTON, MICH.-Maybe some
animals are dumb-but not the
ducks of Brighton.
These Livingston county birds
have solved the whole firing bust
ness Of fall and spring migration.
While most of their kind are fly
ing thousands of miles in the spring
trek from the warm South to the
awakening North, the Brighton con-
tingent does the whole thing in
about 400 short, waddly steps.
The 50-odd feathered thinkers
based here took care of the whole
matter of migration in about 80
minutes.
When the call of spring stirs the
flock into action the Brighton NAL
lards climb the sides of their little
mill pond, waddle about 100 feet
across Main Street and down the
bank into the other half of the pond.
The mill pond is bisected by the
city's main, east-west street. On the
north the pond freezes in winter.
But on the south side, where the
water is kept open by a small dam,
a small flock of domestic white NAL
lards congregates. The banks of
the pond are literally %sprinkled with
bread crumbs and other duck deli
cacieS.

Flameproof Cotton Insulation

~Flameproof cotton insulation, used
only in residences when first develop
ed in 1910, has gained satisfactory
acceptance in more than a score of
diversified commercial and industrial
applications. Illustrating the wide
range of its usefulness, a large West
coast manufacturer of nationally-dis-
tributed hot water heaters is using
flameproof cotton insulation to retain
heat within the units, while several
manufacturers of cold drink boxes,
refrigerators and deep-freeze units
are using the same material to keep
cold in and heat out. Many churches
in both large cities and small towns
have selected cotton insulation for a
dual purpose-for heat and cold in
sulation and as an acoustical insulat-
or, to prevent outside noise from dis
turbing services.

can dope peddling rings. History
said veteran port Officials, is repeat
ing itself. A postwar ~resurgence Of
narcotic smuggling is comparable tc
one after World War I.
Collector Burning attributes the
alarming increase to a breakdown
of prewar safeguards abroad, world
wide unrest and unsettled economic
conditions and the age old desire for
quick, high profits.
In tightening their vigil against
smuggling, customs officers pay
particular attention to all ships COM
ing from French and Mediterranean
ports. That's where, they said, most
shipments of illicit drugs originate.
Ships from Britain and Ireland,
the officers said, seldom figure in
drug smuggling. Always suspect,
however, said Herman Lipski, chief
of the United States customs en-
forcement division, are vessels COM
ing from Naples, Genoa, Marseille,
LIE Havre and Antwerp.
Seize Big Catch
Lipski's men recently scored their
biggest catch of the year when they
discovered narcotics valued at one
million dollars secreted about a ship
from LIE Havre.
One bundle of drugs was found in
the ships galley at the bottom of a
full barrel of flour. Another batch,
encased in a waterproof bag, re-
posed in a soup tureen full of water.
Other packages were discovered in
side the lining of the ships oven
and in a box of sea biscuits.
Another recent haul came when
shore patrol officers under Burning
raided the basement of a dingy
water front tenement. They found So
ounces of narcotics and complete
equipment for testing, diluting and
preparing drugs for illicit sale to
addicts.
In a drainpipe in the basement
they found $4,000 in cash and a
From a man caught fleeing
the basement they confiscated four
more ounces of drugs. Total value
of the catch was placed at 5000, 900.

Company Receivers Valuable
Diamond Dust From Its Shop

SCHENECTADY, N. Y.-Diamond
dust equal in weight to than
two dozen gems the size of the
famous Hope diamond was recov-
cred by the General Electric COM
pany in 1947.
General Electric said the dust was

The dust was used to polish dies

Peanuts as Cash Crop

Peanuts have moved up to third
place among cotton belt cash crops.
In the last 35 years commercial pro-
duction of this crop has increased six
fold. Peanut hay now runs to nearly
one and one-half million tons a year.
A million acres are grazed by hogs.
There was a rapid expansion in pea
nuts in both World Wars. During the
first war production almost tripled.
This expansion was encouraged by
boll-weevil damage in the lower cot
ton belt and by enlarged markets for
peanuts. During the second war pro-
duction again went up rapidly. Along
with this rapid increase in production
there have been changes in varieties,
and changes, also, in the uses of pea
nuts.

Old Bugs with New Tricks
Battle Strawberry Grower

Sometimes it looks as though the
war between men and bugs never will
end. No sooner is one insect pest over
come than a new n appears or an
old one is found up to new tricks.
For instance, the southeast Louisi-
ana strawberry growers are distress
ed to discover that after all these
years the ground beetle, a little bug
found almost everywhere, has started
eating Strawberries. First, he eats the
little seed off the outside of the berry
and then he starts in on the berry
itself and nibbles a little bite out of
it, about like a bird might take at
n peck.
Won't some of the powerful neW in
secticides take care of the ground
beetle? Yes, one of them will. Ben
zene hexachloride will kill the ground
beetle in the wink of an eye. But
there's only one catch-benzene heXa-
chloride has such a powerful odor and
fingers SO long on anything it touches
that it can't be used on strawberries
without endangering all the fruit on
the plant or anywhere in the vicinity.
Experts have advised the berry grow
ers to use an older and slower me-
thod of making poison pellets of
sodium fluosilicate, meal, sugar and
water and scattering them along the
row, while new means of fighting the
beetle are being worked out.

A suit in which a losing bidder
seeks to force the Arlington County
Board to award it the contract to
construct county incinerator was
being argued for the second day in
Arlington Circuit Court today.
The suit was brought by the
Morse -Bougler Destructor Corp. of

payers. The Morse-Bougler firm bid
$628,843 but the County Board ac-
cepted the s646,757 bid of the Nichols
Engineering g. Research Corp, also
Of New York.
Commonwealth's Attorney Denman
T. Rucker told Judge Walter T. Nc
Carthy yesterday that although the
accepted bid was higher, the county
actually would save much more than
the difference over a period of years
because of lower operating costs of
the Nichols incinerator. He said the
bid accepted was recommended by
consulting engineers employed by
the county.
Larence w. Douglas, former Com
monwealth's Attorney, representing
Nichols, told the court it lacks juris-
diction.
Oren r. Lewis, representing Morse
Bougler, contended. after cross

sulting engineer, that the Nichols
bid did not meet specifications in
