Letter To Editor
DID YOU KNOW?
Eight pairs of Erjliah spar
rows were brought over from
England in the Year of 1860. One
hundred years ago, and are found
practically all over the U. S.
Sixty Starlings were introduc
ed from Europe into New York
the year 1890 and they are pretty
common in some states.
But where is the "Purple Mar
tin? which though Is a migratory
bird, but never stops over on their
trip any more, to nest- In a gourd
or box some kind friend has put
up for them.
They do not have very strong
feet for perching like most birds,
so are constantly flying around
and destroying a lot o* insects.
Also what has happened to our
native song birds? That God put
here to sing for your pleasure and
enjoyment, and not to be shot
and fed to the cat. We have laws
prohibiting shooting fire arms In
side the City limits, and alao Fed
eral laws against destroying the
song bird, 'but seems no one pays
very much attention to It. Under
no circumstances should parents
allow their youngsters to rove a
round over the city and country
with rifle shooting the little
harmless birds. Such boys become
a menace, not only to birds, but
the safety of human beings. One
of these days there may be an aC'
cident and then who will be the
blame? Could be your own child.
If it were not for the birds feed
ing on all kind of insects and
beetles, you would not be able
to grow any garden, and besides
it would not be safe to go out of
your house without being stung
or bitten by some poisonous in
sect. A lot of our native birds are
extinct and looks like in a few
more years, your grandchildren
will never know what a bird look
ed like. Some city's are protecting
their song birds and calling them
"Bird Harven." What are you do
ing about it?

Farm Conservation
News
By Joe N. Craver and Samuel A. I
Jenkins, Soil Conservation Service |
During the past lew weeks, far* 1
mers of Cleveland county have
received several thousand bicolor
iespedeza seedlings for wild
life planting. Those plants are toe- .
ing distributed through the Nor
th Carolina Wildlife Resources
Commission. Bicolor Iespedeza
makes excellent use of wildlife
land; it provides food in abund
ance when olanted in correct
land-use pattefllL FU:!d -borders a
long woodHnds, strean, s and gul
lies are excellent placet! to locate
food for quail. Ffteld borders are]
sapped ?by tT^es at the edge of the 1
field; crops are not profitable in
an area 30 feet are more out from ?
the trees, and erosion is a severe
problem. Bicolor Iespedeza Was
developed by the Soil Conserva
tion Service specifically for eros
ion control and food for bob
whites. An example of how this
plant fits into a conservation
farm plan can fee found on the
farms of Ed Hamriek of the Beam |
Mill community apd A. S. Klser
of liie Mary's Grove community.
The plants for these two (arms
were secured several years ago,
through the Board of . Supervisors
of the Broad River Soil ConsfetVa- j
tlon District, for several years,
the District had a seed plot loca
ted on another Cleveland. County
farm? C. A. Dalton of the Waco
community seed was harvest
ed each year by the personnel of
the Soil Conservation Service
working with the Broad River soil
conservation district and distri
buted to the farmer who worked
out complete water and sell con- j
servatlon farm plans with the
District. \ I
The present sale of pulpwood in
Cleveland County is helping far- 1
mers to have more cash and in
many instances it is saving the
farmer from having to go further
into debt As one farmer put it:
saver this year. I hope this sale
'The sale of pulpwood Is our life- 1
of pulpwood will help Us appre
ciate the small trees more. : .
