WASHINGTON --- Many wild 'birds will take what food man "gives them, but few can equal the «African honey guide, who puts pseveral men to work so that he may enjoy his favorite meal. . Various species of honey guide [are found in Africa, says the Na- tional phic Society. At least sone, the black-throated, or greater Jhoney guide (Indicator indicator) 'has observed leading men 'to bee trees containing wild honey so that both bird and man may eat. For many years ornithologists yore elined lo doubt just huey es ac coopera w! ee tribesmen to the extent that they showed them honey trees. But the reports persisted and gain- ed acce, e r they were con- firmed by outside observers. ACTION PHOTOGRAPHED Recently in a remote section of British East Africa on the Mara River east of Lake Victoria, mo-|gng light tion pictures were made of a great- er honey guide leading Wandoro- bo tribesmen to a honey tree. The Wandorobo, a nomadic sub- tribe of the colorful Masai, are hunters who maintain their way of life undisturbed by Western civili- zation, They gave no herds of cattle and no permanent homes.

To obtain this honey the Wan- dorobo listen for the noisy, cheer- ing chatter of the greater honey guide, a bird somewhat smaller than a robin and one that, like the cowbird, leaves its eggs in other bird's nests for hatching. BIRDS ANSWER! ED When the bird is heard chattering tribesmen answer it with low, musical whistles.

Senators Thomas Crerar (L-- Manitoba), W. D. Euler (L--On- tario) and Arthur Roebuck (L~ !| Ontario) the measure which Senator John T. Haig, Pro- gressive Conservative leader, de- scribed as "directly contrary to democratic government." Despite the opposition, the bill was approved in principle without a recorded vote and sent to the a Senate banking and commerce committee for further study. Senator Wishart Robertsons gov- | ernment leader in the Senate, said the bill would extend to May 31, 1954, the extraordinary powers granted the cabinet in 1951 at the outbreak of the Korean war. He said that although the inter- | national situation shows some hope | becoming , the government | does not feel the improvement is such that it can dispense with the powers granted by Parliament in 1951 and extended last year to May 31, 1953. Senator Haig said it is obvious that the world is in a permanent emergency to which people must adjust themselves. The tendency to take away from Parliament its powers and entrust them to the cabinet was directly contrary to democratic government. Yellow Rocket Spreads Fast Man-made aircraft are consis- tently breaking the sound barrier | these days, thereby establishing : hitherto unknown records but de- ! spite this progress man has yet a lot to learn from Mother Nature | when it comes to speed. This is especially true as far as the rapidity with which noxious weeds can be distributed across | farm lands of Ontario. signers of aircraft might well have taken a leaf from the book of Yellow Rocket for here is a | weed that spreads as if jet pro- | pelled. | A few years ago considered a | '"mere nuisance" farmers are now | realizing that it plays a real part | in lowered production and, as a | result, a lower return per acre. Known variously as winter cress or St. Barbaras Herb, the weed | usually appears as an impurity in grass or clover seed. First warn- | ing of the unwelcome visitor is us- | ually towards the end of May. | "Chemical control is not prac- | tical in a clover field, but on road- sides or. waste places 24D at 6 or more ounces of acid per acre will control Yellow Rocket in late May or early June," says C. H. Kingsbury, of the Crops, Seeds and Weeds Branch of the Ontario De- partment of Agriculture, "When clover is in the mixture, early cut- ting is the most effective method of stopping the spread of seed. Yellow Rocket cut in the 1st week of June and cured for hay or en- siled doesn't a chance to go to seed. If only a few plants are present, hand pulling not only re- moves the rocket, but reduces the waist line." "Good drainage, thorough fall and spring cultivation will rapidly clean up Yellow Rocket. If per- and | mitted to go to seed however, ma- ture seeds are dropped by the end of July and in September a second wave of Yellow Rocket seedlings are present to plague the unhappy farmer."
