BIRDS ALSO FLY EAST OR WEST DURINUUTUMN Do Not Always Go South as Winter Approaches, Asserts Expert. Bv Science, Service WASHINGTON. Sept. 26.—Birds do not always fly south in autumn, sometimes they fly east or west. In a Science Service radio talk by Dr. Paul G. Redington, chief of the United States biological survey, given today over a nation wide network of the Columbia broadcasting system, it was stated that birds do not always fly over the shortest route when on their way to winter quarters. In the absence of Dr. Redington. at a conference of the senate committee on wild resources held in Wyoming, the talk was read by Dr. Edward A. Preble, senior biologist of the survey. “In general, birds ply south in autumn, but a study of migration reveals many exceptions to this rule,” said Dr. Redington. “Certain species may take a general southward course for hundreds of miles, and then turn at right angles eastward or westward to some favored wintering or resting ground. In completing a trip of several thousand miles, they may make a long journey by easy stages, or they may stop at only a few wellstocked feeding grounds. “Thus the blue goose, nesting solely in a rather limited area recently discovered in Baffinland, stops regularly at only a few places in the southern part of Hudson bay during its long journey southward to the Louisiana marshes, where nearly all its legions winter. As far as known, its return journey is made over practically the same country that it survey in the autumn. Outside of this rather narrow path, it rarely is seen. “Some species nest only in the

fresh-water marshes of the far interior, but in winter cling closely to the ocean. Some pass over the highest of mountain ranges in their chosen paths. Some may gather during both their breeding and their wintering seasons in restricted areas thousands of miles apart. Many follow different routes in their northward and southward journeys. How little we know of the methods of their pathfinding is shown by the poverty of our language—for we can only call it instinct.” Paper to Appear Oct. 18 GREENCASTLE, Ind., Sept. 26.

times of financial distress, the farmer with & well stocked wood lot, or some scattered walnut trees, always can raise some money. “A properly stocked woodland, containing only the valuable species in sound merchantable condition should be worth at least $300,” the state forester explained. “If every drought stricken farm had a forty-acre forest preserve, this would mean a cash reserve of $12,000. “Even a portion of this sum would be sufficient to tide over the average farm when other crops fail. “One hundred black walnut trees, growing ln v the waste spaces and along fences, would be worth S2O each, or $2,000. “Then there always is a ready market for black walnuts at a dollar a bushel and each of the trees should produce about five bushels a year.”

NEW COCKTAIL HIGH POWERED Each Guest Brings Bottle Dumps It in Bowl. Bv United Prett PARIS, Sept. 26 —The swift set of Paris has concocted a cocktail which has more potency than anything hitherto invented in parched America. There is no fixed recipe for this firewater. Its making is extremely simple. Invitations are sent out for a cocktail party and each guest is instructed to bring a bottle of liquor of his own choice. When the guests assemble, they

pull their corks, and pour their liquid offerings into a huge bowl. One may bring vodka, another cognac or gin. old calvados or peppermint, triple-sec or sherry. The resulting concoctions are always colorful and high proof. These cocktail parties have swept Paris by storm, after having had their origin in Montparnase. During the tag-end of the summer vacation, Deauville played at the game and that put the official stamp of society's approval on the idea. DIDN’T MISS A THING Bv United Prett EUGENE. Ore .
