Usual Admission Sho England Loses Good Will of Egyptians Alexandria, Egypt., Feb. 20.?England appears entirely to have lost the good will of the Egyptians, both inlividually and eolleetively, as a re-u!t of the failure f the Anglo-Egyptian negotiations for a treaty and the tefusal of the British government to withdraw* troops from this tcountry. Egypt is again quiet after the failure of the revolution in December ; nd tourists may now conic and go without fear of danger, but Egypt is not in normal condition. Marshal law is enforced and many newspapers. including the leading English daily, the Egyptian Gazette, have been suspended for the publication of criticisms of the policy of the British go voi nnient. The Egyptians are resentful over what they characterize as "offensive language" of the memorandum sent by General Allenby, the British High Commissioner, to the Sultan notifying him that Egypt was a link in the British Empire and that her troops ruuhi not bo withdrawn. Egyptians are indignant also over the arrest and banishment of Znghloul Pasha and other Nationalist leaders and exceedingly angry oyer the deaths inflicted during the Christmas revolution. fn order to prevent Zaghloul's followers from using that indispensible weapon of modern revolutions, money, Ix>rd Allenby has issued a military decree directing that no bank in Egypt shall pay out any funds belonging to Zaghloul Pasha, or to the Nationalist party, of which he is president, without the permission of the High Commissioner. There are about 17.000 people in Ireland who understand only Irish. The smallest gold piece in the world is the gold franc.

February 1, 1922). , i oiu a vtivr ior me govern! mont's power and nitrate plants at ! Muscle Shoals does not look like a 1 good business proposition the gov! ernment. It carries no assurance of j benefit to the American farmer, thb j feature of it being the reason congress I and the administration have shown so | much interest in the Ford sch< me. There is nothing in the proposal aI it is laid before congress to show that ; ! Ford hinds himself either to produce, I fertilizer nitrates cheaply for the j farm* r. or even to produce any fertilizer nitrates at all. The government is asked to pour fifty millions more into the war plant, getting back a very low interest rate on the new money it j uts in. But when the only thing j that could possibly justify further exj j enditure would he the assurmce of I ample fertilizer material for o ir agrij culture at a lower cost no guaranty whatever is gi\en of any such ihing. j As a matter of fact, the oomnior j sense thing for the United Stales govJ ernment to do with the Muscle Shoals I jn'o.ieet is not to spend another nickel on it. As a war emergency expedient. begun to get explosives which had to be obtained at whatever cost, it was a necessary measure. If the war had continued the government might have had to spend hundreds of millions of dollars more on Muscle Shoals and the money under such cir(umstanccs would have been rightly spent. But, the war over and no further government use for the pmnt existing. the government's course as a sound business organization is to get out, get out quickly and at the minimum of cost.

Farmers Urged to vc Support Movement lu w York, Feb. 18.?"If the farmers of South Carolina do not enthusiastically I z support the movement now on foot to organize and to put in successful operation the South Carolina Cotton tc Growers' Cooperative Marketing Association, they need never start an- ^ other farmers' movement because it will be a failure," says J. II. B. Jen- 'U kins, Jr., vice president of the Peo- ,n pies Bank and Trust Co. of York in ' a letter to W. B. Wilkerson, director tor western section of York county al in the cooperative marketing cam- " paign. U Mr. Jenkins' letter was in reply to w one from Mr. Wilkerson asking the s< attitude of his bank towards the movement. Mr. Wilkerson wrote that the banks in many counties of tinstate were taking the initiali\e in the movement and asked If Mr. Jenkins' 81 bank would favor it. "In our opinion the proposed coop- S1 erative marketing movement," continueed Mr. Jenkins "is the only move- ^ ment that has ever been started by the farmers that has ever had 'teeth' a to it. A cooperative association with ' the proper andenthusiastic support under honest and capable manage- ' ment, organized in South Carolina and 1 in the other cotton states will do more to bring about and regulate or- * derly marketing of cotton at a fair ' profit than anything else that can be!*1 done. Therefore, the Peoples Bank & I Trust Company strongly recommends h the organization of properly managed Cooperative Marketing Association s and we unhesitatingly offer our facil- ? ities to this end. "We have quite a number cf farm- Iers among our stockholders. We num- I ber hundreds of farmers as patrons, and wp nre and will bo just as willing,! h if not more so, to assist financially farmers who are members of the ns- C sociation as those who are not. The .c fact that the government through the s yreat War Fnance Corporation and I? the large financial institutions in the'o money centers have endorsed coopera-: c tive marketing associations and have! expressed a willingness to extend, and; are already extending, fina?icial assist-' ance in large amounts is in itself; evidence of the soundness of the prop- j t osition. It is a great pity that the J farmers of South Carolina have not v long before now organized such an as- q sociation. They would now be enjoy- ^ Ing the great benefits that are being t c-noyed through associations already c organized in Texas, Oklahoma and Mississippi. j, "The farmer who docs not join in fj this movement is not only standing in j, his own light but is retarding the future development of the South." p Q Most Indians in America supportthemselves bv fanning.

The extension meant that all ships nturing inside the territorial wars were subject to search by Noreginn customs otlicers empowered contiscate any cargo of spirits and uler certain circumstances, authored to seize the ship. Both Denmark nnd Sweden have otested against the Norwegian exnsion of her territorial waters, and irtain other powers have notified the orwegian government that they will >t tolerate any search of ships flyig their flags and engaged in bona tie trade.

A' \ Haven For Wild Fowl Newbern, N. C., Feb. 18.?A tag bearing a number of verses from the Scriptures and the name of James Miner, Kingsville, Ontario, found tied to the leg of a wild duck killed recently by Clyde Keener of Trenton, Jones county, near here, has brought to light the existence of a haven for wild fowl on the north shore of Lake Erie to which the feathered tribes flock in huge numbers. Keener wrote Miner advising him of the finding of the tag. The latter in an answering letter stated that wild ducks and geese stop at his farm during the course of their migratory journeys and that he and the girds are the best of friends. He said ho had built a pond for the feathered tourists and that he feeds them GOO bushels of corn each year during their two months stay at his place. Mr. Miner's letter, in part, follows: "Thank you for having reported finding the tag. I now have tags returned to me off wild geese and ducks from North Carolina to Hudson Bay. In several instances the tags have been found by Indians in the Far North after shooting the girds and they have taken them to Hudson Bay agents, who forwarded them to me. "I have had tags returned from 23 different states and piovinees, the farthest south being Guydan, Louisiana, and the farthest West being En-: glefield, Saskatchewan. "I try to tag all the birds that spend some time at my place. Forty per cent of those that I tag in the fall return to me the following spring. Others stay here all the time, in spite of the fact that the weather grows very cold. As I am writing you there are about 75 wild geese and 40 wild ducks .feeding within 50 feet of me. They are keeping a small hole open in the pond and they are depending on me for food. "It took me several years to get the birds coming. At Inst, however, a small bunch came and they apparently told others, until their little flock grew Into a small cloud. In fact, I have seen the wild geese rise up so thick that you could scarcely see through them, and their honking could be heard over a mile away. "During the last six or seven years I have fed them in the months of March and April 500 bushels of corn. When the birds stop off here they seem to leave all fear behind them. Even strong birds, visiting my place for the first time, let me come within a few feet of them. They evidently have been told by the old timers that there no danger. "It is a great sight to see all these birds together. People for miles around have heard of what I am doing and thousands have come to see the tight. Even these strangers can come within forty or fifty feet of the wild birds without causing them anv fright. Not a single bird ever has been shot on my premises and the feathered tourists seem to know that when they stop off here they are on neutral ground. "Of course this is not so with regard to the surrounding territory, over which I have no jurisdiction. I have seen men shoot and wound a duck or a goose and I have seen the bird make a desperate effort to reach my place. Sometimes they succeed and permit me to doctor them. At other times they fall to the ground before they can reach the safety zone. "I am opposed to deliberate slaughter of ducks and geese just for the sake of shooting them. We've got to be careful and call a halt to this destruction, for unless we are careful it won't be many years before geese and ducks are hard to find are hard to find. I am trying my best to give the birds what protection I can. My system of togging them is part of this plan. I have received letters from many hunters who have written me that they uphold me in my work. "There is always fascination in overcoming prejudice and dislike. Wild birds, of course, consider all men to be their natural enemies. It has been mighty hard for me to convince them that I am their friend. However, that conviction now seems to be spreading among them rapidly. Hundreds of new birds come here every year. I can always tell when a stronge bird arrives. It seems very shy. Not so with the old timer, however. He comes snilinor is as fast as he can. honking a welcome and proceeds to stuff himself on corn. "I have one mallard duck, which was hatched and raised by a domestic fowl in 1012. She has now migrated and returned to me each spring and has raised four families in five summers?two eights and two nines. "My friend, to see my pets return to me year after year for food and protection after they have evidently shied around and outwitted thousands of hunters who hid in ambush for thorn, and to see wild geese come home bleeding and with legs broken, makes me feel that my work is realiy worth while."
