throughout the year. The song, or
call of the Eastern Meadowlark is
quite different from that of the
Western species; insects form APP
proximately 24ca of food in
January.
MANAGEMENT: Is protected by
both State and Federal law, and
there is little that can be done to
improve habitat and increase food;
it is essentially a field bird and
benefited by good farm manage
ment. The bird presents a tempting
target as it sails across the fields
and is killed by many irresponsible
hunters; educating such persons to
the benefits of this species in the
hayfields and elsewhere will reduce
this useless slaughter.
VALUE: Is a very valuable bird
as an insect and weed seed de-
stroyer, especially in hayfelds; also
for its beauty and cheerful song.

Weather and Your
Home Freezer

The weather forecast may be
your cue to set the temperature
control ON your home freezer
down to its coolest position, says
A. V. Krewatch, agricultural en-
gincer, University Of Maryland
Extension Service.
That's particularly true if a
heavy storm is on the way-a biz
gard, slcct, high winds or other
conditions that may effect power
lines and cause a temporary shut
off of electricity. It's wise to get
the food in your freezer as cold as
possible. The colder the food, the
longer it will stay frozen without
electricity.
Krewatch advises another pre-
caution. Locate the nearest place
that sells dry ice-for example a
local dairy, ice cream sales place,
or cold storage warehouse-in
case YOU need to buy some to put
in the freezer to keep food frozen.
Also learn whether You can rush
your frozen food to your nearest
locker plant, if necessary, for safe
keeping.
Then. if the power does fail. try

Total Membership
In Farm Co-oPs at
Record rs Million

Total memberships in farmer
cooperatives i'm the United States
have reached a record Of rs mill
Lion. according to the L. S. Depart
ment Of Agriculture. The latest
available statistics which are
compiled yearly by the Farmer
Cooperative Service. show this
total for 1929. 1t is almost
double the number Of 10 years
ago, although only slightly higher
than the memberships Of l95l-52.
A survey conducted by Or. Paul
R. Poffenberger Of the University
.of Maryland agricultural eco
monies department shows that IS
cooperatives operated i'm Maryland
in l952-53. These organizations
had about 10000 members and
their net business, after adjusting
for duplication, was slightly over
500 million.
Many farmers belong to more
than one cooperative, and the ma
tional membership Of rs million
represents some 3 million ndividu-
al tanners. The number Of cooper
atives in the nation showed a
small drop - 10,l14 in 1929
compared with 1906 the prece4-

en- that trip before and we trusted
him to guide us. On this occasion
the two Of us in my canoe were
about half mile in the lead. We
had been told to enter a broad
rapids ahead, shoot them into a
broad bay beyond and turn left to
a fine sandy beach.
As we approached the rapids we
were surprised at the tremendous
roar they made. was frankly
afraid Of that noise. There was too
much Of it. Against the disgust Of
my partner, | insisted on landing
above the rapids and taking a look
see. We did and were appalled, at
what we saw. Instead of broad
bay and 4 beautiful sandy beach,
we saw the rapids end abruptly in
water fall that fell perpcndicu-
larly to a shelf of rocks and a river
about 100 feet below. Had we fol-
lowed the guidance and iustruc-
tions Of our experienced friend. we
would nave been dashed to death.
Our older friend meant well, and
loved him, but | questioned his
Judgment or his recollection Of the
facts when heard the big noise.
His friendship would have de-
stroyed us, in spite Of his utterly
good intentions. He did not have
his facts straight.
The most dangerous of our
country's enemies is not Russian
military might or the spies she
sents to infiltrate our government
and other strategic places in
church, school and profession as
well as in industry. These are seri-
our indeed and our government is
wise in taking them seriously in
its program to protect lis against
our enemies.

Tourist Trade Boost
Is Noted in State

Maryland's tourist trade con-
tinued a steady climb in 1854 on
the basis of figures announced by
the State Department Of Informa-
ton.
Earle R. Poorbaugh, depart
ment director, estimated the state
took in more than five million dol
lars in taxes from tourists who
spent in the neighborhood of $50
million dollars in 1854. Indications
were that tourist business was up
20 percent last year over the 1875
million spent in Maryland by visit
ors in 1858.
