National WlldlH Federation . ( , The fact that a bird has wide range for its species does not' mean necessarily that it is correspond ingly well known. The red-throated loon ranges during the year from the Aleutians to Greenland and south to Florida and lower California and yet most people go through their lives-without ever seeing '. or bearing one of ' these birds, '' ' v ' !''.-" , The red-throated loon, with a length of . 27 . inches: overall, Is some 5 inches shorter than a full grown common loon. It lacks the conspicuous black head and neck band of the common, loon though it is white beneath and has the breast striped with black and white. The throat of the red-throated, loon has a conspicuous chestnut triange at its lower edge. In winter the bird is dusky above, The sexes are colored alike. . '' Breeding of the red-throated loon takes place from northern Alaska and the western Aleutians south to northern British Columbia and east to Greenland, Newfound land and Quebec. It also breeds in Europe and Asia. Our winter range of the species extends south to Florida and the region of Low er California nearest to the Unit ed States, for the most part. The red-throated loon has been suspected of feeding on fish eggs and it is known to make a large part of its diet of fish which it catches by diving and pursuit un derwater.

If through accident or otherwise they happen to come to 'earth in migration they probably will end their days where they come down since the cannot take off except from water. In New England the southern migration Is about at Its "height in October. A poet has con cisely described ' the overground migration of the bird as the sure swift flight of loons. Words would hardly improve this description. : .The nest is nothing but a mere depression hidden on the .bank of a lake or stream. Sometimes it is lined with finer grasses. It must be close to the Shore because the birds are almost helpless on land. In the water they more than make up for this land handicap. There are usually 2 eggs each about 3 inches long highly variable in color and either spotted with drab brown or plain. Both sexes iake part in the 4 week Incubation period and the downy chicks are dark gray, and drab. The young take to the water soon after they are hatched but they, are guarded jealously by the parents who become greatly ex cited when any sign of danger is to 4e found. In spite of the noisy behavior of loons at some times they may vanish from sight quick ly when they wish to do. so.

Coffin award the most coveted honor in the electric industry. It was re vealed today in New York City by.B.'L. England, president of Edison Eleabrlc Institute. The five were singled out for outstanding achievement in 1952 from a total of 23 previously cited by a nominating panel representing every section of the United States. In addition to CP&L, they are Arkansas Power and Light, Detroit Edison, Electric Energy Inc., (a five-company syndicate) and Penn sylvania Power and Light. - The reviewing committee said of Carolina Power & Light Com pany: "Vividly redemonstrating the basic private utility . concepts of community service and public responsibility an able aggressive management led its organization in a highly successful campagin of civic betterment and state de velopment, meanwhile extending to a large new territory the bene fits of better electric services at substantially lower cost." This alluded to sponsorship of the "Finer Carolina'' contest, careful observations of all forms of wildlife about whose genuine value there may be any question.

Also, you'll be free of much of the pressure-of work that piles up in early Bpring. : WHAT ARE NEMATODES? . j Nematodes are tiny soil pests, no larger than a ; pinhole . . . yet.they account for untold losses , every yeajr irt tobacco areas throughout the South.'Piy burrow into feeder roots of tobacco I (and more than a hundred other important crops), obtaining all the food they need by absorbing the vital plant fluids in the roots. One kind of nematode activity causes the root cells to multiply and enlarge like cancer .. .re sulting in the familiar swelling known as root knot. "Other varieties simply choke off the feeder roots. In any case, the normal .flow of food from root to plant is literally starved off, and the plant becomes stunted, of poor quality and low yield. HOW TO GET RID OF NEMATODES. , A tested and proven way is to treat with D-D, a liquid fumigant, in jected ' into the soil by gravity flow plow equipment or simple tractor attachments. After application, D-D changes to a gas, and spreads uniformly throughout the soil, killing nematodes as it goes. You can apply it yourself or have it 'done by experi enced crews with their own rigs. WHY USE D-D? Fumigation with D-D results in a clean, healthy soil which produces strong, full-growth plants and top-quality leaf. D-D is widely used from Florida to Con necticut on tobacco land. It is approved by agricultural authorities, and endorsed by grow ers everywhere. Properly. used, D-D is eco nomical, usually paying for itself many times over in increased profits.
