BURGESS REDWING THE BLACKBIRD GIVES WARNING REEPLNO toward sleeping Danny Meadow Mouse Reddy Fox man C aged to keep quite out of sight of any one In the Smiling PooL But there was one person to whom Reddy gave no heed. In fact, Reddy did not see him at all. It was Redwing the Black bird, sitting on top of an alder tree on the bank of the Smiling PooL Red wing had not seen Reddy until the lat ter had almost reached the Smiling PooL Then, happening to look In that direction, he had caught a glimpse of something red moving In the tall grass. You see, he was looking down and therefore could see what those on the ground or in the water could not see. Now Redwing does not fear Reddy Fox. There Is no reason why he should. But Redwing has no love for Reddy Fox. He knows that Reddy would gladly catch him If he could. So the Instant he was sure that it was Reddy creeping through the tall grass, Redwing flew out directly above Reddy and began to scream. “D anger! Danger!" he screamed. “Here is Red dy Fox! Danger! Danger I’’ At the first warning note from Red wing, Grandfather Frog dived Into the Smiling Pool with a great splash. M INUTE MAKE-UPS There wasn’t any real need for him to do so because out on that big green Illy pad of his, he was qulle safe from Reddy. But Grandfather Frog always feels more comfortable In the water when any kind of danger Is around. All along the shore of the Smiling PooL half grown young frogs dived Into the water In a panic. They knew what had brought Reddy over to the Smiling PooL O f course at the first note of Red wing’s voice the eyes of Danny Meadow Mouse flew open. The Instant he saw where Redwing was hovering in the a ir as he screamed he knew that Red dy Fox was Just beneath him and that meant that Reddy wns right back of Danny himself. What should he do? Where should he run? To turn back would be to run right Into Reddy’s mouth. There wasn't a hiding place near. It was useless for him to try to outrun Reddy, for Reddy could catch him In two Jumps. Was ever a meadow mouse In a more dreadful position? There was Reddy Fox be hind him and the Smiling Pool In front of him. To Grandfather Frog, whose big goggly eyes showed Just above the surface of the water. It looked as If Danny Meadow Mouse would soon be no more. He couldn’t see one little chance for Danny to escape. ®. T . W . B a r i m - W N U Service.

The annual do mestic consumption of durum wheat Is now about 32.<MM).tMM) bushels, of which about 13,000,000 bushels Is milled Into semolina. For ninny years the durum-wheat acreage was around 3,000,000 acres. The acreage varied from year to year owing principally to the relative mar ket price of diirnm In comparison with hard red spring wheat. Formerly the export demand for durum wheat large ly controlled the market price. A low price for durum usually resulted In a reduced acreage. One of the most Important phases of durum-wheat production Is growing suitable varieties, of which Kubanka and Mlndum are the best. High qual ity seed o f these varieties has been conserved and Is for sale to growers in adapted territory of the drouth area by the seed stocks committee. Tills la a part of the seed conservation pro gram authorised by congress and ad ministered by the Agricultural Adjust ment administration. United States De partment of Agriculture. Farmers should consider carefully the growing of more durum and less hard red spring wheat this year. The Agriculture Outlook for 1035 sum marises the situation as follows: “While durum wheat supplies will be held down by a very aniall carry-over, average yield on an urea of S.tMMi.iMM) acres would result In a new crop ample for domestic requirements and carry over. A further Increase of acreage, or yield above average, would result In a considerable surplus for export." The return of durum wheat growing to the suggested acreage would meet domestic requirements and still keep the durum price from being coni rolled by world supply and demund.

W ith a volatile cargo aboard, that Included 8,000 tons of crude oil, and 4,000 tons of gasoline, the crew of the Scotch tanker fought a blaze that, if It had got out of their control, would have spelled oblivion for themselves and their floating home. They succeeded in quelling the fire, but only at cost of disabling the vessel, and a rope from the British fishing boat Guardian was a welcome sight to the sorely pressed crew. The cruiser Frobisher then came up and took the crippled vessel in tow and brought It aafely to Bermuda.
