Calorie counting goes by the

serts follow rich meals and no
one seems to mind. Pie is the
traditional Thanksgiving des-
sert with pumpkin, pecan, and
mince heading the list of fa-
vorites. A new or different kind
of pie will add interest to the
Thanksgiving meal without de-
tracting from the traditional
foods looked forward to from
year to year.

Crane Come Back
Whooping Cranes won’t hurt
for lack of a varied diet on
Blackjack Peninsula this winter,
according to the Texas Parks
and Wildlife Department,
Supplemental feeding areas
again have been planted within
easy reach of the salt water
marshes on the Arkansas Na-
tional Wildlife Refuge where
the rare birds spend most of
their time.
As the majestic cranes zoom
2,500 miles from summer nest-
ing grounds in the Great Slave
Lake area, they usually gorge
on the marine crustaceans un-
available in the far north.
But siltation, pollution and
other man-caused perils have
gradually curtailed the natural
feeding facilities. So the planted
foods were provided.
When summer heat ceased
cooking the sandy soil, peanuts,
cowpeas, hygeria and other va-
rieties were planted in two ex-
perimental plots, reported Ref-
uge Manager Phil Morgan.
High fences prevent curious
deer from raiding the enclos-
ures. Heavy metal rigging im-
bedded in trenches, connected
with fences, likewise balk var-
mints, particularly prowling
raccoons.
But nothing can be done
about the poaching waterfowl
and sandhill cranes populating
the coastal area. Clouds of ducks
and geese descend on the suc-
culent crops.
This year, the third for the
test tracts, some of the crops
were planted in rows instead of
being sown. This permits culti-
vation and thus an increased
yield.
It also simplifies access to the
tubular plants for the celebrat-
ed Whoopers that have shown a
gradual population increase in
recent years.
Forty-four of the precious
birds, including eight young,
flew northward from the refuge
last spring.
Southern hospitality again
this fall resumes its efforts to
sustain the accelerated come-
back momentum.
Archeologists have located the
ancient mines of Solomon, near
Timma, Palestine, and the same
mines are now being worked by
modern Israel.
