Birds Like Sorghum, Ragweed, Lespedeza and Wild Plants But Scorn Cowpeas James Tufts and Rassie Wicker are two enthusiasts in botany and bird supplies, and they are apparent ly uncovering some information re garding the subsistence of quail which is to be of value to the Sandhills. The increasing interest in bird-hunting and field trials has led to much spec ulation as to how to provide feed crops for the wild life, with the com mon result of planting here and there I I plants which will afford seed for the I quail. To make sure what a quail I likes to eat these men have been op- I ening the stomachs of birds killed and noting what has been the bill of fare. For one thing they find that cow peas are not often seen in the quail’s diet. More popular among the things planted for them are sorghum, and a seed called l^ene. Ragweed is wonder fully popular with quail. But the main items of the bird’s dinner bill are found in the wild plants that are more or less abundant over the hills and valleys. Among these are sev eral varieties of lespedeza that are common in the Sandhills. Mr. Tufts and Mr. Wicker have been experi menting with some new varieties ‘ of lespedeza, some grown from seed furnished hy the government, and while their experiments are not car ried far enough along yet to reach conclusions they have found that les pedeza is a plant of many virtues, the native as well as the foreign types. A number of experimental plots are planted through the woods here and there to enable the study of the im ported plants under local conditions. Investigatioxi shows some varieties of lespedeza that grow two or three feet high, promise a good supply of seed for birds, but also indicate a possi ble ?iigh value as cattle feed. To Attract Birds As the wild birds must depend al ways more on their native food sup plies than on stuff planted throughout the woods one object of the study is to get infornmtion that may be giv en land owners to enable them to help encourage the native plant growth, 4,000 Automobiles Registration Figures Show Moore Has 3,365 Passenger Cars, 670 Trucks Moore county had 3,365 passen ger cars and 670 trucks on the fii:st of this month, as Qompared with J,875 passenger cars and 650 trucks just a year ago, according to the figures compiled in the office of L. S. Harris, director of the Mo tor Vehicle Bureau. Figures are ob tained by measuring the cards in the registration files ,aiid estimat ing the number, by which they might vary probably as much as a dozen. The registration for the state was 411,215, including 354,696 au tomobiles and 56,519 trucks, the first of this month, as compared with registration a year ago cf 451,740 motor vehicles, including 383,730 automobiles and 58,010 trucks. While the drop in trucks was less than 1,500, the drop in automobiles was nearly 40,000. The Qounty average for auto-* mobiles is about 3,547 and for trucks 565, with less than 12 mo torcycles to the county. Only five counties have more than 10,000 au tomobiles, Guilford with 24,960, Mecklenburg 21,850, Forsyth 18,- 100, Wake 13.^30 and Buncombe 13,850. Mecklenburg leads in trucks, 3,030, Guilford 2,720, For syth 2,550, Wake 2,200, Bunqombe 2,050. protect it fronj fire, and in every way enable the birds to have as bountiful a crop as possible of the s«eds they are familiar with. Many of the na tive wild plants like to establish them selves around the edges of the farms and by the roadsides and creek bot toms. Encouragement there will help to increase bird life in the woods ad joining. As Mr. Tufts and Mr. Wicker develop their experiments in this di rection they will make known what they discover, and the people can profit by joining in the work of broadening the feed supply of birds and the increase of birds all over the territory. n n ♦♦ ♦♦ tt ♦♦ u Blinding Headlights Doomed- Amazing New Invention Hakes Night Driving Safe! Fits Any Headlight At last! Night driving suddenly becomes safe from glar ing headlights! At one sweep, a tiny inexpensive inven tion banishes glare. Doubles the spread of road illumina tion. Shoots an» entirely new kind of beam that tends to cut through every light on the road. Not an “attachment.” Fits any car. Manufactured by a 25-year- old, two million dollar company. Perfect-O-Lite goes oh sale here next week, for the first time in North Carolina. Try a pair of these amazing bulbs on your car. See what a pleasure they make night driving, how they minimize danger. It is a well-known fact that motor tar manufacturers have solved nearly every big problem except one. As soon as the sun jroGs down at niglit, the highways of America Kl-eak forth into a constant rushing stream of “dim ming and damning.” Speed is cut down one-third to one-half. Every moin- ing finds newspaper accounts of wrecks and serious injury. Every man who ever groped dizzily down the highway in traffic^ at nig^t knows the rible sensation of being half-blinded' by cars on his left, unable to see the ditch on his right, his own lights seeming dim and shadowy and practically worthless. Now, in a twinkling, this curse of night driving is lifted like magic and inexpensively from the shoulders of the entire motoring world. Fits Any Headlight This new lighting discovery is called Perfect-^Lite. ’t is a little invention that replaces the “bulbs” in your automobile headlights. No e^ra wiring or installation. This new lighting method costs only a tiny fraction as much as so-called “Spot” Lights and “Driving” Lights, yet actuaUy DOES double road illumination. Banishes need for Glare Shields. Cuts through the other fellow’s lights, yet absolutely cannot glare in his eyes. Makes rats, animals, children, detour signs in the road more clearly visible. Actually lights the road so fully that you can drive at high speed and still see your way! For a Trial of “Perfect-o-Lite, or Further Information, Inquire of S. e. RICHARDSON, line.
