They slpiply arise to remark that bugs are a good deal worse agricul tural problem than they used to be, and that the reason la—there aren’t so many birds. •• • < 64TVTATURE has her balances," Iv| as Congressman Martin L.

Bea Ilixon Mac Neill in Raleigh News I and Observer. . Asheville, Aug. 30. —Serious as'has j bei't me- the problem of Asheville's wa-1 ter supply, it is the least serious phase ! of conditions that arise from the fact that no rain has fallen west of the Blue Ridge Mountains since last May. Asheville, if the worst comes to the Worst, can go where there is water, but the 150,000 people who make their living farming in this territory can not move. Literally, the country is parched to a crisp brown. Crops almost every where. save in the low bottom lands, afre a total loss. The thousands of acres of grazing lands that support great herds of cattle are dry and hard. The grass is dead. There is no pasture for the cattle. - Already liny is being imported to 'feed them ill the season when usually there is plenty of grass. 9 Up the mountain sides the forests are dying. Vast areas of chestnut, the most valuable natural resource of this country, are dying and turning a dull yellow brown six weeks ahead of the season when the frost usually torus the mountains into a riot of gdld and yellow. Here and there the drab brown is blotched with a flame of crimson, maple turned red out of season. Rivers and creeks arid brooks are dried up. Streams that have failed before, springs from which families have drawn their water for generations are dried up. Almost every town west of the Blue Itidgc is confronted with the same condition that confronts Asheville. In many families living in remote sections are having to haul their drinking water for miles. Asheville actually is in better con dition than are many sections of this side of the mountain. They have water enough to drink, though it is shut off from the residential section for certain hours in l the day. Tapping o( Beaver Lake has thrown half mil lion gallons daily into the city mains. What would happen if fire broke out is problematical, but there is healthful water enough to live on. Soda fountains, bottling works, laundries and similar- places have been cut off from water uutil there is EVERETT TRUE H¥ CONDO AN <c> You Setsm T° lNk That ©©Onuses Z'Al YToofc i.

If there are enough birds, that the plants hold their own. The more birds the more plants. But destroy the | birds or reduce their number con- [ slderably and the insects multiply [ enormously and at a prodigious I rate, and simply sweep vegetation j away." • • * THAT America's bird life has diminished greatly in the last generation or two no authority on the subject denies, some of the Agriculture Department entomolo gists estimate that it has been re duced by half In 40 years. But. , reply the departmental biologists, most of the destruction occurred during the earlier part of the 40 years, when less protection was -afforded than is afforded today; it's adequate now. Dr. Homaday says not. He says It’s inadequate yet. and he inti mates that he thinks the depart mental biologists know It but don't do anything about it because they’re too completely under the influence of the American Game Protective and Propagating Asso ciation, whose members, he farther 1 hints, seem to btm more Interested in hunting than in protecting and { propagating game. |mi increase in the supply. Bottling i I companies and laundries beyond the 1 j mountains, principally in Markin, ] I which, has an abundant water sup- i 1 ! ply, are doing an enormous business. ] Since last Friday all the laundry for ] Asheville haw been carried in trucks l across the mountains to Marion, 42 j miles away. Asheville will pull through for a 1 good many weeks yet before there is need for any grave fears for its safe ty, save from the lire hazard. Its splendid golf courses are turned to a dusty, uninteresting brown, and many i people from beyond the rjdge, have deserted the mountains, but among the residents there is only the discomfort that comes from being restricted in the use of water. The fall vegeta bles which usually bring in halidsome | . returns and provide the mountain 1 ' farmer with food for the winter, are I hoiielessly parched. The apple crop is j , drying on the trees. Corn, save in the lowest valleys, would burn like a ! • down-east broom-sedge in iJareh. This | mountain, area, according to those I who have examined /t carefully, will l I not make 25 per cent, of a crop, f kfurWter west, where there are- large . areas of cattle land, with thousands > of cattle, the owners are confronted : with the choice of selling their herds in an unfavorable market, or irnport . lug hay to feed them with this winter. I T. Lenoir (Jwynn. one of the largest i cattle merchants in Haywood county, ( is preparing to ship a thousand head i of cattle to Virginia, where he - fcas | found pasture for them. ; Resort centers in this section have i all summer felt the shortage of fresh l vegetables. They have to be import ed from elsewhere. The residents of . the section will feel the shortage until j there is another growing season. The , country will not serve, but it has ! been terribly hard hit. The coining i winter will be a barren winter for ; them. Not only have-they not rais- J . ed their usual food crops, but their money crops and cattle have been woefully diminished. 1 ’ v Fashion's latest idea in Paris is for mothers to dress their small i daughters exactly in imitation of I their own frocks | ____ t I 4 Time to RE-ROOF | We have a complete stock of GALVANIZED roofing and ASPHALT SHINGLES.
