With the close Of the quail
hunting season in Virginia. wesi
of the Blue Ridge, and also In
Maryland. we've been checking
TO find II the experience Of others
has paralleled ours. We find
hunting in Virginia generally
has been good this year with
the birds fairly plentiful and
well distributed. However In
Maryland, particularly in nearby
counties. this has not been the
case. We think this Is due. In
part. to the lack Of proper train
ing Of the dogs used. but mainly
because Of farming practices. So
many farms have gone almost
exclusively into cattle raising
and intensive cultivation has de-
stroyed so much natural food
and cover. that the quail popu-
lation is down.
We talked with Lloyd Jones
OF Dickerson, Nd, an ardent bird
hunter, who attributed q lot OF
the failing population to crop
ping Of alfalfa during the nest
ing season. He recounted many
instances where he had received
appeals from farmer friends for
information as to where q clutch
OF quail eggs could be Matched
after the mother had been killed
on the nest by the mower. Jones
thinks the use Of q flushing bar
should be mandatory. as 1t would
save many nesting mother quail.
4&A
There is also talk Of many
birds being poisoned by sprays
used on alfalfa for spittle bug
alfalfa weeviI and other pests
and by sprays used on wheat
seeds to kill rust germs. I'M
doubtedly some spray materials
particularly mercury compounds
and those Of a stable nature like
the DOT sprays. could prove
fatal. However. biologists in both
the Fish and Wildlife Service and
Department of Agriculture are
loathe to admit that much oil
this sort Of poisoning occurs ex-

PERSONAL TO PARENTS
Dear Parents:
Friday, Oct. 26 is your day to
visit our school and talk with the
teacher of your child. This is SC
important. The term is only seven
weeks old and to talk things over
now NAV mean the difference be-
tween the success or failure of
your child. There are MANY
things you can tell the teacher
which will cause her to under
stand the behaviour of your child.
There are likewise, things you
need to know about the behaviour
of your child at school. Many
times the way he acts at home and
at school are very different.
We would like to show you the
work being done and talk over
the school fee and how its used.
Your child has a new teacher
this term. Your becoming ac-
quainted with this teacher is all
important since you and the
teacher make up the team, work
ing to produce a child whom you
shall be proud to acknowledge as
yours.
