As evidence of the good work that the red-breasted Gros- ^ ^-jbeak does among the potato beetles '£* 'the following statement, credited to ijfV-v- Seal, of the department of agriculture, §pS;£s interesting: • ' + ^ ' A few years ago I made some Inter- •/. iesting observations in a small field of '. potatoes near my house. No remedi ?v . lal measures were applied to the crop, . *; l»ut both beetles and birds were given ^ : p fair field and no favors. At first the insects increased In- numbers in A GARDEN TRANSPLANTER. RED-BREASTED BEAK. aftOB- ftpite of Che dally visits of the birds, l>ut when the young of the latter were ^ • iiatched, the numbers of the beetles |:\0•afcegan to diminish rapidly, and when v- ,• "the young birds were fledged and ?/' ,'npere brought by their parents and |>laced In a row upon the fence around 'i- - the field, the insects rapidly disap- •• fpeared, and when I examined the field * , m. week later I could not find a single K. v l»eetle, either young or adult, g^v *'% About this time the birds began "to f>rey upon some peas in my garden, i|::,/:™ytmd I shot one of them and examined the contents of its stomach. It con­ tested of one large green caterpillar (Sphingidae), several potato beetles, find a few fragments of peas. My . nconclusion was that the few peas taken had been well paid for. How- . t <ever I hung an old coat on a pole near pea vines, and the birds came lear them no more. All of the above iservations were made in the state it Iowa, which was one of the first £ states to suffer from the attacks of Ihe beetles on their eastward march. Since then this habit of the Gros- :^>eak has been confirmed by thousands ^gpf observers In all parts of the coun- '£.$ry where the potato beetle and the t>ird are found. As this Insect is r4 <paten by but few species of birds it ^/|§s especially desirable that this one, Jthat eats it so freely, should be pre­ served and its increase be encouraged jlfa every possible manner. Forty rears ago this bird was rare in New Sland--in fact, was entirely un- lown in many places, but it is now fairly abundant there, and it may be that it has been attracted to that Section of the country by the pres- Ijfcnce of the potato-beetles, which fur- ItiiBb so large a portion of its food. I J|»elieve it is possible to prevent its depredations upon peas (|he only Jbarm that I have ever heard it ac­ cused of) and its value as an insect- destroyer forbids its wanton destruc- CURING GLOVER HAY. -p-. t. Only Such Amount as Can Be Safely Cured and Stored Should Be Cut. Where a hay loader is u3ed, it Is jmetimes advantageous to ted clover ly twice to get all the dampness out if it before putting it in barns. Where hay is loaded by hand from cocks #r piles, this is seldom necessary, plover hay, says the Orange Judd farmer, should never put in the mow |rhen damp, with the expectation that jjt will cure out in mow. If the weather is very brittle, as it t?as last year in this latitude, small %mounts should be cut so. that too mch will not be down at one time, [y practice is to cut one day about irhat I can put in the next, so that if le weather breaks and my hay gets pet after It is almost cured bur loss 11 be comparatively small. Last rear during the wet weather, I know • Jjif farmers who lost five or six acres 1|y cutting down too much at one /finae. Besides, if the weather proves Warm and clear, when so much is cut ||t one time the last to be taken in ' %rHl be too dry to handle well and so ||iany of the leaves will drop off while idling that the value of the hay be greatly reduced. A good programme for hay making jmd one which I endeavor to carry out is about as follows: Cut the latter part of day, about as much as can be taken care of the next afternoon, this •o be governed of course by the fmount of help at hand. Begin ted-Ing by ten a. m. the next day if the breather Is clear. By one or two p. «|i., begin hauling to the barn. Clean <lp if possible all that is down. Have 4t team' cutting for next day and so on <t«y. f;j" •:... • By Its Use the Plant and Earth -Can rJN Removed Without 0%^^: v ' : turblna 'Root* Some years ago I wished to extend our strawberry bed with the newly- formed plants, and as the conditions for transplanting In midsummer are not often favorable in central Kansas, where we then lived, I had to evolve a plan to move the soil with the plants, says a writer in the Rural New Yorker. I had heavy tin cut in pieces 4% by 11 inches. I wanted a strong wire turned in along one side, but the tin­ ner was without the necessary ma­ chine and the best he could do was to turn the edges over twice, thus con­ siderably strengthening the top of the tool. With a block of wood 3% inches square for a form the two ends of the tins were bent at right angles to the central part, thus forming three sides of a hollow cube. Armed with three dozen of these, garden trowel and a wheelbarrow, I proceeded to the patch. A tin with a good plant in the center was forced into the ground with the foot, th^ , trowel inserted alonif the open side of the square formed by the top of the tin and the tin containing the soil and plant wis lifted an.! placed in the barrow. Pro­ ceeding unt'.l a full cargo was ob­ tained th3 barrow was w;hee!ed to the plot previ.mfly prepared and the tins with the plants all set in their proper places. Then spreading the wings slightly the tins readily slipped out, leaving the plants set with roots not in the least exposed or disturbed. The work was rapidly done and with per­ fect success even in sunny weather. The tins lasted several years and I used them for other small plants, as cabbage and tomato. If the soil is loose and not well held by the tin bend tho wings nearer together, mak­ ing the open si<U; narrower. REMARK MEANT AS WITTICISM NEAR Friend of Whistjer Denies Great Artiet Wat Conceited.

A hook for cutting bushes, heavy briers and such plants, which is sim­ ple and easily made by any b l a c k s m i t h i s shown in the cut, says the Farm and Home. Take a piece of cast steel one-quarter- inch square and ten inches long. Use one-half for the blade and the other half for the shank. Draw the end for the blade (a) down nearly to a point, theu bend pretty well, as it will straight­ en in drawing to an edge. Have the bevel all on one side. Draw down true and thin. Then draw the shank down, tapering to the end and bend about one inch of the end down to go into the snath. An old scythe snath is just the thing. Fasten it to the snath with an old heel ring driven on the same as to fasten a scythe. Such a bush hook is light to handle. You can cut off a bush an inch or more in dimeter with ease. The blade needs about the same tem­ per that you would give a knife. Thia is much handier than the ordinary bush hook. The blade is not so long, cumbersome nor heavy, and the ease of management will appeal to every farmer who handles it. WANTS TrtE CORRECT PHRASING Man to Puzzled Over the Right Way to Aek fa# Liver. **I wish" said tbe""chronic fault­ finder, "that butchers would hit upon some uniform rule for writing out their notices of call's liver. The pres­ ent diversity of styles is embarrass­ ing, and apparently convicts a fellow of grammatical error every time he buys a pound of liver. Some shops say they have 'calf's liver" for sale, others make a specialty of 'calves' liver,' while still others with a finer regard for singular and plural num­ bers call attention to their excellent 'calves' livers.' One butcher in Co­ lumbus avenue goes so far as to ad­ vertise 'calf's livers,' but unless that sign is misleading the animals he handles must be freaks, therefore they need not be considered. What I want to know is, What is the gram­ matical rule in regard to this table delicacy? If I want more liver than one calf can supply should I plural- ize both terms and ask for 'calves' livers'?"--New York Globe;' , BARRACKS FOR HAY. "'f' The Grass Crsgfc- . J keep about one-half of my farming l*nd In grass. All of my upland is in "that crop. On the bottom land I grow my corn. The kinds of grass I grow Include clover, timothy, blue grass "jlnd red top. Of my grass about one- third is made into hay and the other two-thirds goes into pasture. The *rass crop here is more neglected than the other farm crops. Alfalfa is •receiving a good deal of attention and is about the only thing that has been recently introduced. I think our grass lands could be improved by using on them more bone meal, manure atfd Jfane, especially on our high lands. Convenient Shelter for the Surplus Hay Which Cannot Be Put in the Barn. A. subscriber sends to Out Prairie Farmer a sketch of a hay barrack for storing the surplus hay or grain, instead of stacking, which we repro­ duce^ These structures are familiar in many sections of the country. Their construction is simple, being merely Ideals of Family Life. Dr. Alcott opposed the keeping of a Servant because, as he said, a servant destroys the domesticity of family life. Dr. Alcott further told the <*S©ung wife that she must "pre­ pare" appetizing dishes for her hus­ band; must see that his house was kept neat and clean; that the children were properly and nicely dressed, and that the wife and children should all be ready in the parlor to welcome with smiling faces the. man of the house when he came home in the afternoon. Emerson Baid that Dr. Alcott was the greatest intellect since Plato. Emerson gave Dr. Alcott a letter to Carlyle, and wives of the present day will probably applaud Thomas to the skies for saying to Jane: "Never let that old cabbage In here again." Bleeptr Awoke to Find Monster Colled Around His Neck. .1". E. Jpfcre, an employe ftf the Northern Electric, had a thrilling ex­ perience with a snake Tuesiray morn­ ing. Feve with two companions occu­ pies a tent made out of gunny sacks In the western portion of Oroville. He Was awakened by a feeling of strangulation. He attempted to cry out, but so tightly was his throat bound that he could make no sound. As he became fully awake he realized that something must be done or he would choke. He grabbed frantically for his throat and his hand slipped over the scales of a huge snake which had coiled itself around his neck. He frantically pulled the coils loose, the reptile resisting him and biting him in the cheek. His two companions, awakened by the noise, came to Feve's rescue. The two pulled the snake away and threw, it to the floor, where it glided away while the men attended to Mr. Feve's wound. The reptile was a gopher snake.--Redding Correspondence San Francsco Call. NOTRE DAME ALWAYS CHARMS Visitors Never Tire of Beauty Famous Cathedral. • of Often ^.as I have seen Notre $tme, the marvel of it never grows less. I go to Paris with no thought or time for it, busy about many other things; and then, on my way over one of the bridges across the river, perhaps, I see it again on its island, the beauti­ ful towers high above the high roofs of houses and palaces, and the view, now so familiar, strikes me afresh with all the wonder of my first impres­ sion. The wonder only seems greater if I turn, as I am ialways tempted to, and walk down the quays on the left bank, the towers before me and with every step coming more and more completely together, by the Pont Neuf, to the island, and at last to the great square where Notre Dame fronts me in Its superb calm.--Elizabeth Robins Pennell, in The Century. HERITAGE OF CIVIL WAR, Thousands of Soldiers Contracted Chronic Kidney Trouble While in the Service. Wore Out His Finger. There is a brakeman on the Colo­ rado Midland railroad who years ago lost his index finger on his right hand. One day recently a lady ^passenger who had been much interested in the wonderful works of nature the brake- man had pointed out to her along the road, noticed the stub finger. When the conductor came through the car she said to him: "Excuse me, sir, but can you tell me bow the brakeman lost his forefinger? He seems to be such an- accommodat­ ing fellow." "Yes, mum; that's Just It. He is so accommodating that he wore that fin­ ger off pointing out the scenery along the line," said the conductor.--Denver .News. THE HAY BARRACK. the setting of six or eight posts in the ground high enough for plates, over which the roof boards may be laid, as shown in the accompanying cut. The- advantage over stacking is that less hay is wasted from exposure to the weather, while in a consider* able measure stacking in "catchy* weather Is reduced to the minimum. A barrack properly made will last for many years and will prove of great convenience. Warning to Preachers. "Sermon stealers," said a minister, ought to be careful. They ought to read over Beveral times the sermons that they steal before delivering them. "I know a young man of 21 or 22 who preached a stolen sermon he had not read over, and in the most im­ pressive part he found himself de­ claiming: " 'My friends, when I first •s.camo among you 40 years ago, these thfci, white locks were thick and brown, and this bent back,' etc. Another sermon stealer, preaching in a village of about a hundred souls, said, before he could check himself: " In the teeming streets of this great metropolis.' "--London Tit-Bits. A Beneficient Weed. A lady remarked to a representative of the Farmers' Review the other day that sweet clover had been introduced from Europe and had become a ter­ rible weed. But it is a beneficent weed. It takes possession of the waste places and loves them best where the ground is hardest. It drives its roots deep into tb? soil and <inel- lows it. On its roots feed the bacteria that create the tubercles. In their homes these bacteria manufacture In­ to available nitrates the free nitro­ gen of the air. They thm ylow the ground, fertlize it and make jpay ior other plants. Food for Chibks. For the young chicks i use cream of wheat, broken grain and sometimes bread crumbs. I seldom feed meat un­ less it is to be found in prepared chick feeds. I begin to feed grit as soon as the chicks are out of the shell. I find the greatest mistake usually made in the early feeding of chicks is to give them too sloppy food. To Make an Eggnog. » When you get on your back, stom­ ach gone, ambition dead, the best food Is an eggnog. I'll tell you how to make It. Separate the yolk from the white of an egg. Beat the white till it stands up like Gibraltar. Then beat the yolk, add half a teaspoonful of sugar and a glassful of milk. Pour in half an ounce of whisky and stir. On top put the white, and, if you like, grate a little nutmeg. Ambrosia! Nectar of the gods! If you want a change from day to day substitute foj- the whisky some good port, sherry, tokay, or any first class wine. --Tip, in the New York Press. The experience of Capt. John L. Ely, of Co. E, 17th Ohio, now living at 500 East Second street, Newton, Kansas, will interest the thou­ sands of veterans who came back from the Civil War suffer­ ing tortures with kid­ ney complaint. Capt. Ely says: "Icontracted kidney trouble dur­ ing the Civil War, and the occasional attacks finally de­ veloped Into a chronic case. At one time I had to use a crutch and cane to get about. My back was lame and weak, and besides the aching, there was a distressing retention of the kidney secretions. I was in a bad way when I began using Doan's Kid­ ney Pills in 1901, but the remedy cured me, and I have been well ever since." Sold by all dealers. 60 cents a box, Foster-Milburu Co., Buffalo, N. T. He Hit the Bookmaker. Patrick Murphy had an afternoon off, so he thought he would go out to gee the horse races. Pat had heard about the fortunes made at the race track, so he thought he would try his luck. He went down Btairs before every race, but didn't find any odds that suited him until the last race. It was a large gray horse. I don't remember its name, but It suited Pat all right, for it had 50-1 after it. Pat put up his dollar and went up­ stairs to see the race. His horse won by a neck. Pat hurried ^own-stairs with a lively step to cash in his check. It was the last race of the day and the bookmaker was anxious to get rid of his silver, therefore Pat was paid with silver dollars. Pat stood there a few minutes fum­ bling over his handful of silveir dol­ lars, when the bookmaker hollered:. "What's the matter, Irish? Don't you think they are good?" Pat said: "They look all right, but I am just trying to see if I can find the bad one I gave you among them." Intoxicants In Vegetables. Vegetables not only contain stimu­ lants but are capable of producing an intoxicating influence on those who1 depend on them exclusively for food, according to an investigator.

Everything goes wrong if the break­ fast lieB in your stomach like a mud pie. What you eat does harm If you can't digest it--It turns to poison. A bright lady teacher found this to be true, even of, an ordinary light ^breakfast of eggs and toast. She says: "Two years ago I contracted a very annoying form of indigestion. My stomach was in such a condition that a simple breakfast of fruit, toast and egg gave me great distress. "I was slow to believe that trouble •could come from such a simple diet ^but finally had to give it up, and "found a great change upon a cup of hot Postum and Grape-Nuts with cream, for my morning meal. For more than a year I have held to this course and have not suffered except when injudiciously varying my diet. "I have been a teacher for several years and find that my easily digested breakfast means a saving of nervous force for the entire day. My gain of ten pounds in weight also carafes me to want to testify to the value of Grape-Nuts.
