Ai this relieves the steel discs In the clutch of ail pressure froia the clutch spring, it should peruiil suf ncient separation of the dnviug from tue driven discs to allow Uieui to turn freely on each other. Thi is necessary because the driving discs are connected to tue engine jutshalt and the driven discs can not revolve without turning the rear wheels. But if the lubricating oil used is of too heavy body, the disc iil still have a tendency to stick together and make cranking difficult. "In the Ford power plant the clutch is combined with the engine and lubricated from the supply of oil in the crankcase. If the oil In use has a Zero Gold Test it help considerably to eliminate the hard cranking andr creeping car com plaints and gives correct lubricat uon to the engine, the clutch and, the transmission."

The beneficial effects of the mi gratory bird treaty act are beginning to be felt. The United States De partment of Agriculture, through its Bureau of Biological Survey, has conducted U. vestlgations of the breed ing areas tf ducks in North Dakota and Nebraska. Compared with for mer years, a gratifying increase of breeding waterfowl, particularly in North Dakota, is evident. The fifth annual series of counts of birds of all species breeding on selected ar eas in various parts of the United States contained a large proportion of reports showing increases in bird population. The total number of re ports received, however, was not large. Many of the persons who had formerly taken part in the annual bird counts were unable, because of extra duties assumed during the war, to find time for the work required by the fifth count. "Many species of migratory birds," reports the chief of the Bureau of Biological Survey, "have had a mar ked increase under the existing trea ty act. Waterfowl formerly driven to the far North by spring shooting have remained in steadily increasing numbers to breed in localities where none had previouesly nested for many years."

TURNER, Secretary. Muscadine Grapes Different, There is a pronounced difference in varieties of Muscadine grapes in their value for tho making of fresh juice and other products. This fact has been brought out by the United States Department of Agriculture lu its investigations on tho utilization of this native type of grape as an addition to the national food supply. The Thomas, says tho chief of the Bureau of Plant Industry, in a recent report, is the best of the varieties now commonly grown for unferment ed juice nnd has high merit compar ed with other varieties for most oth er uses. Under tho cultural and pruning methods used iu the expor- Tost Farm Many Desperadoes Hunted Dowa You will hardly think of the Unit ed States Department of Agriculture as an agency for hunting down des peradoes, but it is. That the desper adoes happen to be not men but wild animals does not detract either from the adventure or the value of the work. Now and then a wild ani mal becomes notorious for its ex ploits in killing live stock. The in spectors of the Bureau of Biological Survey make special efforts to hunt down and kill such animals. A moun tain lion that was known to have des troyed $1,000 worth of live stock in one month was killed near Dubois, Wyo., a few months ago. That the animal had eluded many private hun ters was shown by the number of scars on the body. Another moun tain lion taken in April had killed seven colts during the spring. In the same State a pair of wolves that had destroyed $2,500 worth of live stock was killed, the female by a Government hunter and the male by a private hunter. A ranch owner near Mertzon, Tex., reported that within three months he had lost 310 sheep, valued at $3,200, as the re sult of the depredations of six coyo tes. Government hunters in July, captured all six of the beasts. But not all of the bad beasts haro been disposed of. About 30 ver cunning wolves stili roam the ranges of New Mexico, causing annual losses to live stock amounting to about $2,000 each. When the department's campaign for dest.'uotion of preda tory animals began, however, there were between 300 and 400 wolves In the State. The small number re maining, though made up of the most cunning and destructive indi viduals of the packs, is being steadily reduced. In spite of the fact that the stock of wolves in that State is con stantly recruited by stragglers from the mountains of northern Chihua hua, Mexico. How to Sell Lamb Cuts. The extent to which the public's habit in meat eating may be influenc ed by local butchers is illustrated by information received by the United States Department of Agriculture. Fair dealing and good service are the basis by which the sale of lamb car casses in one locality has been In creased four to five times within a few years. Following are the polic ies responsible for the noteworthy In crease: Selling only lamb neither mut ton nor goat meat when customer ask for lamb. Selling mutton as mutton (instead of as lamb), thus enabling custom ers to make comparisons. Makiug special sales of "a good string of fat lambs," ut reduced pric es, but not with reduced quality. In tho hands of local butchers the tneat- of largely rests changes iu tment at the Pender the North Carolina Department of ; eating habits of the public the lufor Agriculture. at Willard, N. C.
