feed of .significant value.
These conclusions are from an investigation
begun in 1938 and now reported
in Bulletin 329, "Biochemical
and Nutritional Studies of Dehydrated
Sweet Potatoes", published by the
<
South Carolina Experiment Station.

Chemistry Department, notes
these facts:
I "Porto Pico sweet potatoes can be
'dehydrated and ground into a flour

TINY HUMMING BIRO 18 " fl
WORLD'8 ACE AVIATOR I
* 1 1 " * 1 -^^fl
The humming bird was proclaimed I
the world's champion aylator recently' fl
by the Smlthsopian Institution. fl
Not only can the little creature al- I
most stand still In the air. with ii I
wing strokes a second, but it can a*. fl
tually fly backward. ;i^fl
"This has often been questioned JU I
impossible but recent photographic fl
techniques have shown that the rs fl
verse flight Is an actuality," says Dr. fl
Wlnsor M. Tyler In a bulletin. Againat j
larger birds he employs a form of I
"dive bombing."! .fl
The spring migration of the ruby- fl
throated humming "bird, only speclea'fl
ever encountered in the Eastern fl
United States keeps pace with theifl
opening of its favorlto flowers, Dr. fl
Tyler has discovered. Sometimes, he J
says, this seems so closely regulated fl
that the migrants arrive in a locality j
the very day the first bloawina ap- fl
i pear. The birds have a d#ffiRfWTJrtffc~~"fl
erence for red flowers.
The male humming bird disdains
dome&tic duties. He usually lets Us fl
wife build the nest and keeps away fl
from hpr except for brief mating pe- fl
riods.
The newly hatched bird Is no bigger fl
than a pea, but In less than two weeks H
he Is almost as big as his parents fl
and able to leave the nest.
The humming bird has an insatia- fl
ble taste for sweets. A single bird fl
has been observed to devour two-tafc-fl
spoons of sugar daily, comparable tofl
close to 50 pounds for a human being, fl
Because of its tfny size, humming
birds meet perils unknown to othaffl
birds. Therb- are instances when?
they have been caught In spider wekw
and where they have been Impalef^fl
on thorns or stuck on thistles.
' Though he is usually silent whenfl
alone, tho humming bird does sing, in "fl
a high-pitched an<i petulant tone. H
