Urges Greatep Care to Prote¢t Timher An appeal for co-operation in preventing further destruction of growing timber and wild life cover bY fires started to ““burn off’ grass and brush, was made by Virgil M. Sima= mons, comissioner of the Department of Congervation. Such fires have been incressing in number during recent weeks, particularly in the southern part of the state where approximately four thousand acreg of timber and wildlife cov er have already heen destroyed. Reportg to the Department of Conservation indicate that in a majojrity of cases, little or no effort hag been made to prevent spread of the fire from the field where it wag started to burn grass or brush, In all cases where it is considered necessary to “burn off” fields or to burn grass and brush, every precaution should be taken to prevent spread of the flames to adjolning areas, particularly when young timber may be damaged. All such fires are prohibited within one-half mile of any state park forest, game preserve fish hatchery or other state property, unliess written permit has been secured from the custodian of the property.

WINTER OF 50 YEARS AGO. By John Richmond.

The winter of 1885-86 was a very cold and severe winter, I was married on January 20, 1886, the event that I will always remember. We had an unusually long, cold winter, a real democratic wintey which was under Grover Cleveland’s first administration,

The winter of 1895-96 was anothet very ecold winter; I spent the week of February 21st in Chicago vigiting my aunt at which time the mercury was way below zero fop the seven consecutive days and nights and at no time the mercury reach zerg from below so this was anotaer democratic winter which was under Grover Cleveland’s second administration,

The next cold, long winter was in 1914-15, a very severe winter but not quite so long. The first killing frost did not occuy until October 25, 1914, but the winter set in about the middle of November and continucd cold and even on March Ist the mercury dropped to the zero mark. But that winter blended into spring from March Ist and by the 16th the farmers were plowing for onions, mint and oats. However, that was a democratic winter under Woodrow Wilgon’g first administration.

The next cold winter we ought to all remember wag the winter of 1917-18 during the World War. On January 12, 1918 we had the worst blizzard that I have ever seen in all my life. It rained early on Friday morning when the mercury was 37 degrees above, turned cold suddenly and commenced snmowing in the evening and a real blizzard was coning with the wind Dblowing furiously from the northwest for 24 hours as it usually does in the event of a blizzard; the mercury dropped 60 degreeg from 37 above Zzero oOn Friday morning to 23 degrees below on &aturday morning. We had very cold weather through February. The mercury dropped to three degrees below zero on Mareh Ist. We had a cool summer, it frosted in every month but August and on September 14 and 15 we had two killing frosts which froze all the corn in the shock No farmer to my knowledge cribhed abit of his corn that fall as the corn was too soft to keep in the crib; the farmerg just fed their corn as they husk it. I don’t think any one had a bushel of good corn for seed. The next spring the farmers naid from $4.00 to $6.00 per bushei for seed corn picked out of the cribs of farmer who had old corn from the year before. But this was arother cold democratic winter which was under Woodrow Wilson’s second administration. ;

The next real cold winter wag 18 yvears later, the winter of 1935-28, the present winter just past. Tt was certainly the coldest and lungest winter any of us every experienced. 1 haye passed over 75 winters and I have never seen anything like it. We had a blizzard on January 22nd with the mercury at 20 below zero which we will remember for years to come; this cold spell ran for 15 days and night consecutively and at no time did the mercury reach.zerp from be-

low. No one will dispute this being a 8 real democratic winter which is under Franklin D. Roosevelt’s administration. ;

.Now, I see only one way of changing those democratic winters and that i tp have them appealed to the U. 8. Supreme Court and declared uhconstitutional. The above record of the cold winterg ig authentic taken from my diary.

Feeling Horsés Important,

A large percentage of farm horses are now past ten years of age and many of them are in very poor condition. The general cause of horses becoming thin and out of condition in the winter and spring, is that they have not been fed properly and the condition of their teeth ig such that they cannot crush the feed, according to Dr. R. A. Craig, head of the Purdue universary veterinary depart ment. Shary, uneven and long teeth are not uncommon in horses. A horse that has not had its cheek teeth examined annually, and dressed or floated in case they have sharp borders, may have irregular, lonz cheek teeth when eight yearg of age or older. Dr. Craig pointg out the bad effects of “bad teeth” in horses as follows:

It is very important that the feed be prepared for gastric and intestinal digestion, by crushing and mixing it with saliva. Much of the food that is not prepared for digestion is not acted upon by the digestive juices. Undigest food may irritate the grastic and intestinal mucous membranes and cause indigestion: The teeth of horses should be examined by a veterinarian, and in case the borders of the cheek teeth are sharp, they should be dressed or floated; long teeth should be cut off on a level with all adjoining teeth; and diseased teeth should be taken out: If the horse is very old and the grinding surfaces have become smooth it is advisable to feed ground feed. In case the animal has indigestion it should be given the necessary treatment. : A suitable grain ration should be feq three times daily and the horse given water before and after each feed, Dr. Craig’s final tip.

Donated $lOO

In a response to a plea for financial aig from Cary T. Grayson National Red Cross chairman at Washington the Kendaélville Red Cross chapter has forwarded $lOO. The quota was set at $l5O. ; The urgent plea was received by Mrs. G. J. Hopkins chairman of the Kendallville chapter who immediate ly got in touch with H. H. Macomber chairman of the disaster relief committee who in turn forwarded the money. :

65> Million Ducks in U. S.

ICompletion of the fiirst serious and aceurate census of wild ducks revealg that the duck population of the North America continent today fis 65,000,000, ) ‘This figure wag reached after long and painstaking collation of reportis from 2,000 volunteer census takers enrolled by The Country Home, a national farm magazine. The num-~ ber is about half what it ought to be according to the alarmed wild life exeprts who have supervised the undertaking. The count was made not ag a stunt but for the serious purpose of determing how many ducks there were, in order to create proper legislation and otherwise provide for conservation. The report of the census committee says:

“Beset by enemies, animal and human, hunted legally and by poachers the length of North American continent, the danger of the wild dunck becoming extinct is shown to be very real and immediate.

“Duck counting ig a strange business. The censug takers who volunterred for this job achieved their totals by following the ducks all the way to their refuges in the North. Airplanes, canoes, punts and floating blinds were employed. More than 2,000 Americans and Canadians, most of them farmers, helped with counting. The Canadian mounted police enlisted and so did game warders and fire rangers.

Airplanes were used in this wiunter towl census for the first time. They flew- over 14,000 miles, covering a vast area of wild Northwest territory of Canada. All told, close to a million square miles were tallied for their ducks, including states of Minnesota, North and South, Dakota, the provinces of Alberta, Saskatchewan and Manitoba.

“3o far ag the ducks are concerned this area comprises the significant mileage, for they come each spring and summer, virtually all American ducks to nest and breed and raise their young.”

Simmons, commissioner of the Department ofi Conseration. This week has been designated as a period in which special emphasis is to be placed on the value of conservation activities and the importance of natural resources. Conservation officials in each state are cOoperating in this educational movement by placing before their citizeng the problems of the nation and state in developing and using natur-

al resources. In Indiana the program for the week is being prepared by the more -than five hundred local conservation clubs. Eaeh club will have some special event during the week. Many of them will hold public meetings to discuss conservation activities; some will have programs dedicating rearing pondg or other club . property; others will send their members into schools andg before other organizationg to discuss Indiana’s conservation program. Indiana participated in the observance of National Conservation Week for the first time in 1935. The: enthusiasm which was shown and the results accomplished in this state attracted national attention and favorable comment. Since that time other states have adopted similiar programs and seeking to form state wide cdqservation organizations hased upon the plan operating successfully in Indiana. This recognition is in itself sufficient occasion for the holding of 2 Conservation Week program by ihe Indiana clubs as they prepare for greatey activiities and further achieve ment in protecting and developing the natura] resources of the state. i —————————— Gasoline Exploded.
