Bird Population Increasing.
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."

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-

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

Agriculture. at Willard, N. C. Mus-I mation indicates considering the
cadiues have produced excelont crops1 health of sheep and the nutritive
when unfavorable climatic conditions ; value of meat, tt much greater pro
have caused other varieties and vinos ! portion of mutton und lamb might
