If one passes our path it is considered unlucky; two, on the other hand, will bring good forâ€" tune before the day is out; three mean that if we are unwell heaith will soor be restored; four predict that a good sum of money is coming our way; five foretell sickness, while six warn us of death. If the brown owl gives its mourn{ful boot close to a house, it is said that a death will soon occur there.â€"Oliver G. Pike, F.Z.8., London "Answers." There is an old country saying that I rooks desert their rookery the ownâ€" er of the estate will die soon afterâ€" wards. When I was a boy this was beâ€" leved in what was then a small vil lage only nine miles to the north of London. There were two instances of this in that district within a few years. Leg*tn dof the Empty Nest Rooks which had lived in the old elms for many years left suddenly, and shortly afterwards both owners of the grounds on which the trees stood died. Rio De Janeiro, Brazil.â€"With the departure of the southbound plane of the Panâ€"American Airways at 6 in the morning the last link of the east coast air mail and passenger service from Miami, Fla,, to Buenos Aires, Argentina, vwas completed and the dream of encircling South Amâ€" erica by American air transport lines became a reality. The extension, inaugurated on Noâ€" vember 2nd, increased by 1,254 miles the route from Miami via Brazil and connects the cities of Paranagua, Florianapolis, Porto Alegre, Rio Grande and Montevideo with . the United States, Canada, Central Amâ€" erica and the Woest Indies on the North and Buenos Aires on the #outh. The planes will fiy over the entire route once a week. The new addition to the east coast route proâ€" vides a longâ€"needed service and taps one of the most important districts of the continent, which up to now had been lacking"in air connections with business and industry of North America. In Denmark to this day it is believed that If one of these darkâ€"plumaged birds is seen in a village the priest will die. In other parts of the Conâ€" tinent the souls of the damned are sup posed to enter into the bodies of rayâ€" ens, while priests who do not do their duty while on earth are thought to reâ€" turn after death in the form of these it is c _nsidered : crime to shoot a robin. If a farmer or his sons destroy one of these birds, it is said that in future the milk given to their cows will be tainted with red. Birds of H!1â€"Omen In some parts the cuckoo is regardâ€" ed as a bird of ill omen, while in other countries it is thought to bring good luck. It is a common custom for counâ€" try maidens and their sweethearts to count the number of cries the bird gives when they hear it first in spring, for they believe that in the same numâ€" ber of years they will become man ang wite. 1 tried it myself several years ago, but when the cheerful bird had passed the fifth bhundred I thought it me to give up counting! _ Others, more pessimistic, say that the first calls of the cuckoo denote the number of years they have to live. Uirds with black, or almost black, plumage, seem to be the more unforâ€" tunate where superstition is concernâ€" ed, and the raven, crow, and rook sutâ€" fer most in this respect. The raven l« now soâ€"rare that stories connected with it are dying out, yet in the Middte Ages it was found nesting in trees all over England, and was looked upon as a bird which portended death it it setâ€" tled on or croaked over a dwellingâ€" house. Businesg interests here hail the new extonsion as a most encouragâ€" ing sign of progress, and it is felt in commercial circles that this imporâ€" tant step portends the fulfillment of another great need to trade on the east coastâ€"twiceâ€"aâ€"week service to and from the United States. â€" Airway Lines Encircle S.

Even in these days it is surprising how many country folk believe that dire mishaps will fall up en those who molest certain birds, possible occasion, owing to the super. »tition that they bring i‘! fortune.

In Arkansas organizations are formâ€" ing to assist the hill farmers in makâ€" ing their trades. Three elements are present that promise success for the undertaking: raw products are abundâ€" ant; there are many grist mills scatâ€" tered through the region waiting only for the grain in order to begin work; and the home market is large. In other words, there is a product and a market, All that is needed is coâ€" In many places the exchange rate is three bushels, 180 pounds, of wheat for 100 pounds of flour.
