Estimated 1959 advertising in-
vestments again show that more
money was spent in newspapers
than in television, magazines, radio
and outdoor combined.
Natures Way: The 17 year ci-
cada lives underground for 17 years
as a grublike larva, feeding on
root sap, and emerges as an adult
the 17th summer of its life. As an
adult, it seeks a mate, breeds, lays
its eggs and then dies—all in a
week or less.
Although the silk in a spider’s
web seems fragile, it is really one
of the strongest materials known.
This material will stretch one fifth
its length before breaking, and
possesses a tensile strength ex-
ceeding that of steel.
The opossum is the oldest living
American mammal. Its forebears
date back unchanged to the age of
the mastodon and saber-toothed
tiger.
The cow or female sea lion
weighs up to 300 pounds, the bull
twice that.
Birds capable of being taught to
talk include parrots, mynas, crows,
ravens, jackdaws and some species
of jays.

Nature’s Way: When the Pa-
cific horned lizard is frightened,
it squirts blood out of its eyes.
The skeleton of the ant is on
the outside of the body.
The halibut is none other than
the medieval English Hail-butts,
the holy flounder which our an-
cestors made a practice of eat-
ing on occasions of religious ob-
servance.
The eggs of the tinamou, a South
American bird, are so shiny that
the Indians often use them as mir-
rors.
The chameleon was supposed to
be able to perform such prodigies
of endurance that the Greeks were
moved to honor him by calling him
‘Chamai-leon’—little lion.
The so-called silver eel is just a
common green eel with a date!
When they are six or eight years
old, eels stop feeding and change
to a silvery color for their long
trip out into the ocean to spawn
and die.

Objects of nature: A particular-
ly interesting African snake is the
egg eater. This snake is able to
swallow' and crack hen eggs and
sometimes pigeon eggs, the skin
being stretched to breaking point.
When the egg is cracked, the
swelling collapses with the swal-
lowing of the yolks and the shell is
ejected.
Except for vultures and parrots,
wild geese live longer than any-
other birds. Authentic records give
them as much as 70 years.
The weird mournful cry of the
loon has given rise to the phase
‘crazy as a loon’ but the bird is
far from crazy.
The woodcock never sees what
she eais. By driving her three-inch
bill into the mud, her highly sen-
sitive tip feels earthworms upon
which she feeds.
The bald eagle was adopted as
our national emblem by congress
on June 20, 1792.
