quainted with. One morning, while we
were lying in the Scheldt abreast of
Antwerp, Sandy was seated on the rail
watching the disembarking of the cargo
and the various operations of the small
craft which surrounded the steamer,
with that responsible air of gen.
eral superintendent which distin-
guished him, when he suddenly caught
sight of a rat in one of the lighters
alongside. Without a second hesitation
he sprang down from the rail sheer into
the lighters cargO-space, n descent of
full thirty feet, perhaps more! As may
be expected, he was nearly killed by the

but we nursed him round again with

run with vermin from stem to stern, but
it appeared that there was an extraor-
binary concentration of the ratty element
in the store-roOms underneath the fore
peak. Nothing served to restrain their
depredations or to diminish their num-
bers and audacity; it was scarcely safe to
venture down there, and the store-keep-
er was at his wits end to know how to
protect the articles under his charge
AT length he asked me to allow him to
put Tim down there at night, not so
much in the hope of DESTROYING the rats
as of soaring them away Tim was ac-
cordingly conducted thither before the

Changing From Cheese to Butter.Mak.
ing.

The low price of cheese during the
winter of 1928, or at least the small
supply and slow demand for exporta-
ton, will strike the minds of many
dairymen with the notion that there
will be but little profit in cheese-mak-
ing the next year or two, and there will
therefore be a large exodus from cheese
making to butter-making. There is al
ways too much of this sort of thing in
every line of business, and the proba-
bilities are that this next winter will
find the butter business equally over
DONE
With the exception of a few lucky
strikes, where men have happened to
make their changes just in the nick of
time, as a rule, the man who sticks to
his business through thick and thin with
an eye steadily bent upon the improve
ment of his product, will in the long
run excel all others and secure the best
average profit from one season to
another.
Many men in building a factory pre-
pare it for making either or both butter
and cheese with view to taking adj
vantage of the understanding butter
when it sells high or making cheese
when it sells high. This Jack-at-all
trades business is always a qualified
failure. While it may pay its way and
by good business management return a
fair income, the chances are that the
man who relies upon these two stools
will probably fall between them. 1t is
not one factory manager in a thousand
who can make fine article of both but
ter and cheese. The one talent is Just
about as much as any one man can car
ry, and it is therefore unwise, if he is
found to excel in one field to burden
him with the responsibility of another.
To be sure, every good cheese-maker
thinks he is good butter maker also,
and every good butter maker thinks he
knows how to make good cheese, but
when the market test comes to be ap-
piled to the work of these men it is in
variably found that each one might bet
ter have stuck to the work he did know
how to perform. The slow process Of
building up a market for an extra good
article always pays best in the end for
one simple reason-that so few men
have the patience and perseverance to
practice it.-American Dairyman.

An Easy Way Out Of 1t.

Here is an interesting account by DIR.
{. G. Abbot of the cunning way in
which a little bird rebuilt its nest in or
der to avoid Matching an intruder's
egg:
"A pretty little fy-catcher, which had
taken much pains to build her nest, was
in trouble about her own pearly eggs.
and through no fault of her own. An
impudent cow-bird (No'othrus pecors
of naturalists), too lazy to make a nest
for herself, or to look up an old one, or,
indeed, to hatch her own eggs, had
slyly dropped anegg in the fly-catcher's
nest. and then gone off, quite indifferent
as to what became of it.
What the. first thoughts of tSe fly
catcher were when she saw the intrusive
egg, am at a loss to conjecture; but
the nest itself tells us that the bird was
not easily outwitted, and also that the
conclusion it finally reached was, to
get rid of the noxious egg, by making
practically a new nest out of the old
one.
Now. this f1y-catcher. which orni-
biologists know rs the white-eyed vireo
IireO n0reJOracencis), builds rather
fragile, hanging nest. usually oat of fine
twigs and strips, of thin bark. all nicely
interlaced, 1abut~ sometimes employing
also large pieces of newspaper. The
nest is suspended to the delicate twigs
that grow on the very ends of long,
wavy branches. To compensate, there
fore, for the considerable motion to
which it is subjected when the wind
blows, the nest is made very deep, and
quite small at the top. So deep is. it,
in fact, that usually we can not detect
the sitting bird, unless thenest is locked
upon from above. evssy..
lin fhe instance of the nest here de-
scribed, this great depth of the original
structure came nicely into play; for the
outcome of the birds thoughts was that
to build new floor to the nest, while it
would necessitate leaving two of her'
own eggs unmatched, would place the
unwieldy egg of the interloper down in
the basement also, and would thus leave
her free to rear her own family, unmo-
Tested, on the second floor. This she
cunningly accomplished by first placing
a stout twig just above the eggs, and
then Intervening suitable soft materi-
ais with the sides of the nest, allowing
their weight to rest upon the twig extend
ing from side to side and projecting be-
yond them.-S. Nicholas.
