Foxes Are Killing Farmer's Turkeys A Hillsdale county farmer who complains that foxes are destroy- ing his turkeys and that rabbits are killing his fruit trees has suc- ceeded in confusing conservation department game men completely. The conservation authorities get a good many letters from sportsmen who declare that foxes have killed all the rabbits in their localities. The Hillsdale county complaint however, is the first to charge that foxes and rabbits work together in their roles of farm pests.

An estimated 500 wild Canada geese are staying at Gull Lake this winter, despite the relative severity of weather conditions. The geese sleep on the ice border- ing a stretch of open water in the center of the lake which their activity has kept free of ice. They feed during the day on fields near the lake, often joining herds' of catttle. The lateness of their stay is unusual according to Dr. M. D. Pirnie, in charge of the W. K. Kellogg bird sanctuary, as snow is relatively heavy and the birds have trouble in finding food. Nearly 2,000 geese stayed at Gull lake until January 20 last year. when little snow was on the Ground. Geese returned to the lake in late February last year on 111-i- northward flight. Geese banded at the sanctuary have hien shot in Alabama and Geor- ca, but manv go no farther south than Horseshoe lake in southern Illinois. Page Three cooking, lighting and appliance use. POLE SETTER. The slow, grinding work of digging post holes and erecting utility poles—once done by hand—is now accomplished by a miracle machine in a fraction of the time formerly required. This machine has worked marvels of construction, helping to build hundreds of miles of farm lines, helping to restore service quickly when a severe wind, lightning or sleet storm has dam- aged our poles. 61- FOR DESSERT.

The weather was just right and everything went as well as expected. After the game the ,teams and audience came back to the school for hotdogs and cocoa served by members of the P.T.A. The game and party lasted until about 6 o'clock. Only a few peo- ple, who couldn't stay, missed the fun.—Dick Wylie. A new supply of Wayne Coun- tv library books came on January 22.

We received new library books this week. The Second grade children are enjoying their new readers. Group I made plays from two of their stories "The Sandman and the Brownies' and "Fuzzy Rabbit's Easter Card". Frances Twigg, who has been ill, is back in school. The Fourth grade has a new member from California. Her name is Alice Ernest. The Haskins boys have left us. Jack Wolfram is out with the mumps. We are enjoying our new coping saws which were a gift from our PTA. Kaye Dewar has made a very nice boat which is propelled by rubber bands. Gary Morgan of the Fifth grade is in the hospital. He had an op- eration. Raymond Smith, Robert Brackney, Robert Layton and Donald Britt are making feeding trays for the winter birds. Elm PTA will observe Foun- der's Week with a potluck dinner.

The committee for this din- ner includes the following: Mrs. Brackney, Johnson, Griffiths, Bruner, Wells, Cartwright, War- dell, and Heinzman. Livonia Center School It was an ideal day for the hoc- key game between Livonia Cen- ter and Newburg. The ice hadn't thawed a bit, when Livonia Cen- ter turned out for the game on the afternoon of January 19. The students backed their teams to the limit throughout the whole game. The players, in their new jerseys, flashed in and out and afforded many a thrill and spill to the amusement of all the spectators. At the end of the game the score totaled four to three in favor of Livonia Center. , Livonia Center.—Jack Evert. The frequently reported scarc- ity of cock pheasants in down- state Michigan counties this win- ter does not alarm conservation department game men. The male birds keep out of sight, whereas flocks of hens go unconcernedly about their business of finding enough to eat. Game men say that there is no reason to fear that any hens will lay infertile eggs next snring, declaring that the very fact that pheasants have been in- creasing in Michigan year after year in spite of the heavy kill each fall indicates that there is no cause for worry. Pruning Trees At the time peach trees are planted, their main trunk should be headed back to a height of from 24 to 20 inches, dependent on the sys- tem of pruning to be followed later on. All lateral branches should be pruned back to short spurs of one bud each. This may seem like dras- tic treatment but it results in good growth and strong trees if future de• shooting and pruning are properly performed. Navy Facts The three white stripes on a sailor's collar don't stand for any- thing at all.... The United States navy is the only one in the world which never has had a mutiny... . Because he uses his right hand to pipe officers over the side, the bos'n Is allowed to salute with his left hand.... The rank of commodore, recently restored to the U.

Fast Bird Considerably smaller than a spar- row, long -winged and short -tailed, the sooty black chimney swift is be- lieved to be faster on the wing than any other small bird of eastern North America. Almost its entire waking life is spent on the wing, zig-zagging back and forth through the air in search of its insect food. Probably it seldom if ever comes to rest on the ground or on the limb of a tree. Quinine Species Quinine is obtained from the bark of various trees of the genus Cin- chona. Thirty to forty species are known from the mountains of north- western South America from Bolivia through Peru, Ecuador and Colom- bia to Venezuela, where they grow scattered in the forests above 2,000 or 2,500 feet to altitudes approach- ing 10,000 feet near the equator. One species extends northward to Costa Rica. For Baby's High Chair If baby has grown to the high- chair stage, don't overlook the ad- vantages of having two or three washable slip covers for his chair pad. Not only are they colorful and ornamental; but they simplify the cleaning up job if there is a mishap at feeding time. You can run the covers up in a jiffy using tape ties to keep them in place.

S. public health service, was . in Rosedale Gardens school Tuesday of last week, and one day this week to test for ringworm of the scalp. The presence of fungi shows under a special light, called the Wood lamp, as a phosphore- scent glow. If unchecked in its early stages, ring -worm of the scalp spreads rapidly and may soon grow to epidemic propor- tions. Dr. Littlejohn was assisted last week by the school nurse, Miss Luhsero, Mrs. F. B. Waters, and Mrs. Ralph Kinner. Highway Improvement During the '20s highway improve- ment was pushed forward on a big scale. Uniform marking of high- ways was inaugurated, which added greatly to the convenience of motor - vehicle owners. Ownership of motor vehicles expanded greatly among the lower-income families in the United States. U. S.

Muskrats have some , value as food, and while trappers seldom receive more than 20 or 25 cents per carcass, the "marsh rabbit" market is an important sideline for trappers operating near large cities. State-owned land is under the jurisdiction of the department of conservation in 47 northern coun- ties of Michigan. Approximately 2,300,000 United States workers were injured off the job in 1943, the National Saf- ety Council reports. Made to Stick One of the handicaps in the use of synthetic rubber is its lack of tack, or stickiness, which makes it more difficult to cause pieces of the synthetic product to stick together or to cement it to other materials, in the unvulcanized state. This diffi- culty has been overcome by adding to the butadiene -type of synthetic rubber a class of materials known as alkyl phenols.

These plants can be severely damaged or even killed by covering them with a layer of straw or similar mate- rial. Such plants as Canterbury bells, fox gloves, Oriental poppies, violas, pansies, English daisies and forget-me-nots have leaves that should stay green during the winter months. These will benefit from a winter mulch, but it should be placed on the ground under the green leaves instead of covering the entire plant, thus allowing for light and circulation of air around the plants.

Legislators voted $20,0010 during the 1944 extra session for fox con- trol during a 12 -month period, giving the job to the conservation !i department. The department has hired trapper -instructors to inves- tigate complaints about fox dam- age, to .trap foxes when neces- sary, and to instruct farmers in''. best methods of trapping. Some members of the Western'' Wayne County Conservation club favor a bounty payment. The department's program was dictated, in part, by the size of the appropriation. Approximately 22,500 foxes were taken in Michi- gan in the last fiscal year. Small- est bounty payment that can be expected to interest hunters and trappers is three dollars. At least $40;000 additional would have been needed for bounty payments during the year. The conservation commission, at its December meeting, review- ed bounty proposals and indicat- ed its willingness to pay three dollar bounties during summer months when pelts have little value, provided the legislature makes funds available. Opposing year 'round bounty payments, department game men point out that similar control ef- forts by other states have not been successful, that bounty payments on coyotes taken in Michigan since 1935 have failed to check the increase of this species, and that coyote bounties have failed to interest trappers whose num- bers have dropped steadily during the last eight years. The department's trapper -in - instructors have been working' with county agricultural agents, have investigated 137 complaints of fox damage, have trapped fox- es causing damage, have arrang- ed 14 public meetings attended by more than 600 persons, and have furnished instruction and assist- ance in most instances of com- plaints. Just at the moment when, by artful management, a woman has her husband convinced that she is the sweetest and loveliest creature in the world, she breaks the shell by reminding him that he prom- ised her a new wardrobe, and then he realizes he's been trapped once more. * Buy War Bonds THE HOWARD FEED & SUPPLY CO. featuring WAYNE FEEDS for Dairy—Horse—Poultry —Hog Fertilizers, Hay and Straw Remedies Some feeds available in Dress Print bags Located at 29444 Joy Road 100 feet west of Middlebelt Road — Garden City MAKE THE ROBERT SIMMONS J�W�lOiY YOUR HEADQUARTERS WHEN IN THE CITY OF PLYMOUTH We carry an extensive line of fine jewelry, crystal and wooden ware in addition to precious stones and jewelry.
