Recent observations upon the hab
its of the woodpecker have shown the
curious fact that the sounds made by
striking its bill against trees constitute
a performance taking the place of song
in other birds, and have no connection
with its quest for food. 1t carefully
selects the spots as partially dccayed
trunks from which the most sonorous
sounds may be produced, and frcquents
the same place day after day. This is
probably the only case among the fea-
thered tribes in which vocal is repla-
ced with instrumental music.

Winter Rye for Hay.

With such poor prospect for hay
cop as the present dry weather hold,
out, it is quite satisfaction to see a
few tons of winter rye going into the
hay mows all nicely cured. We have
repeatedly alluded to this crop as being
worthy of far more attention than it
has received in the past, except as a
grain crop. Our experience with it,
this season, has only increased our esti-
nation of its value. The dry fall of
last year found our hay mows, like most
Others in this part of the country, quite
too short for either pleasure or profit;
and after We had bought baled hay for
carrying the stock through the last few
weeks of March and April, it was with
no small degree of satisfaction that we
struck into 4 four-acrc field of winter
rye just as the heads were coming in
sight. 1t is contrary to rules to change
cattle suddenly from dry to green feed,
but in this case the temptation was
strong to try the experiment. and as
the animals were perfectly healthy, and
were having good ration of grain each
day, the danger seemed less. The ex-
pertinent proved perfectly satisfactory,
not an animal being in the least dis
commoded by the change.
The rye was in good condition for
feeding full fortnight. and. while it
saved buying hay, the milk yield was
increased, and the butter product inn
proved both in quality and quantity. |
The rye grew on land that otherwise
would have lain idle from the time of |
sowing till it was fit for cutting. Ex-
cept for the drought there would be
ample time for getting full crop of
field corn, with fertilizer on hand all
ready to spread, and if the dry weather
lasts only two or three weeks longer. q
full crop of fodder corn or millet will
be easily secured and out of the way
for another crop of rye for next springs
use. Do not fail to try crop of rye
Tor fodder next fall.-M E. Farmer. !

Gone to Town."

The agricultural editor spent most OF
last week visiting farmers in Hardin
and Grundy Counties. This is the busy
season OF the year, when the corn de-
mands the closest and most constant
attention, and yet in nine cases out of
ten on applying at the house TO see the
owner, the almost invariable reply was,
''he has gone to town." We generally
saw u small boy or hired hand in the
field blowing corn-some of whom were
too small to perform the service they
were trying, while others were as ig-
norant of their duties as sidewalk
granger. There is too much going to
town and standing about the street cor
ners, and sometimes visiting beer sa-
looms. Home is the place for the farm
er. There is where he should find his
pleasure, his profit, and there is
where he should preserve his moral in.
tegrity.
There can be no excuse for such fire.
quent visits TO town. 1t getting tn.
stock and grain of the farm to market
there is need of such visits. But many
farmers get so accustomed to town that
they neglect their business aud their
families. Their farm is badly managed,
the crops poor. mortgages increase and
ruin ensues. No farmer should go to
town unless he has urgent business.
And then he should study to combine
all errands in one trip, SO that another
will not have to be made in q month.
The farmers are constantly croaking
about their hard fate and the de.
vices to defraud them. But if they
would stay at home on their farms,
keep away from town, and have no
dealings with strangers, peddlers, agents
or tramps they would be happier. and
their business would prosper better

ding was a great social event in that
city. A few months ago, after six years
of seeming happiness, the wife confessed
to her husband that she was in love
with another man. He said at once that
they must part, and, though she begged
hard to stay with him, promising the
utmost circumspection of conduct, he
insisted upon casting her off. She grew
respondent, and wrote imploring letters
to him, but he would not see her. At
last she has committed suicide.
