»’\GE TOUR 'COTTAGE GROVE SENTINEL, THURSDAY, JANUARY 7, 1926 Wonder of Nature Is Tons of Sunflowers Vision Given to Bird» Produced in Canada The Canadian sunflower crop has grown to enormous proportions, the plant having been found to form Sunflower . yields excellent silage. ________ fr<>m twenty to twenty-five tons per acre, a great deal more than the average corn crop, and the extent to which It has been cultivated In Canada shows how this plant, nntll a few years ago despised as a worthless weed, has become a crop of great economic value. The Importance of the sunflower was first urged by Dominion govern ment agricultural experts, who stressed its value for silage pur prises. Fanners began to plaut small fields, and found the experiment profitable. Expansion has lately been so rapid that last year Alberta alone produced a crop of nearly 2<H),000 tons, at a cost which, In view of the food value of the plant. Is de- el.-1 ‘ red ’ to be the cheapest silage or f<< Ider crop yet raised. Farmers retto rt that live stock take readily to It. The vision of birds Is an amus ing thing. A vulture soaring almost out of view sees a carcass lying - perhaps in a quite inconspicuous position; a kestrel hovering at a height of 100 feet, spies a mouse creeping about In the grass; a gan net cruising round 200 feet above the sea observes a fish swimming some distance below the surface, says W. W. White, In the Nine teenth Century Magazine. The gannet's sight Is by no means the least remarkable among keen-eyed birds, for it has to pene trate water as well as air. A gan net’s hurtle on fish beneath well expresses the action. At once it checks its flight, poises for a sec ond, half closes Its wings, and dives with tremendous speed. There is a rurlous corkscrewllke motion in the downward swoop, and at the mo ment of entering the water the long, pointed wings are folded.

Sheriff Taylor has received a lengthy letter from Secretary of' State Kozer in which the sheriff - is instructed to refuse all requests' for temporary license tags to cov er the operation of motor vehicles which were licensed in 1925. It is: suggested that temporary license tags be issued by the sheriffs for only such motor vehicles as have been purchased since January 1,1 and then only when application for license is accompanied by applica tions of certificate of title. This move was to relieve the sheriffs of unnecessary demands being made upon them by those who have been dilatory in making applications for licenses, blanks for j which were mailed out sufficiently early to enable everyone to obtain his license before New Year’s day. , Many automobile owners whose cars were licensed before July 1, 1925, the time when the certificate of title law went into effect, have failed to fill out such a certificate and no 192<1 license plate can be isue.l to them until the law is com plied with.

The passengers dived beneath the seats, nut the driver stuck to his post and accelerated, steering the car straight at the leading elephant. As he approached, he swerved past the animal.
