SENATOR HOAR'S EAGLE.
He Makes Noble Plea for His Favorite
Bird.

Here is bit of most stalwart and
and wholesome Americanism, uttered
by Senator Hoar, of Massachusetts,. 1t
sounds just like that grand old Ameri-
can:
WORCESTER, April 28.-It became
known to Senator Hoar in Washington
lately that efforts were being made by
the bird hunters near his summer
home, Asnebumskit Hill, to kill the
bald cage which makes its home
among the tall pines of that place, and
today he sent this letter to a local
newspaper:
"SIR: Your associate. who knows a
great deal about birds, thinks he saw a
great bald eagle flying about Asnebum-
skit on April 10. There we're a pair on
the hill last year with an eaglet that
had got out of the nest little too soon,
and they were feeding and guarding it
with that marvellous love for their off
spring which so largely pervades all
animal nature and is the most complete
and tender manifestation on earth of
Gods love for His children.
g If There be anybody anywhere who
cares for me, beg that the eagle may
De let alone.
Why should we want to murder
him? [ have been at a good deal of
cost and a good deal of trouble to pre-
serve this beautiful and lonely spot.and
make it acceptable to people who can
not afford distant journeys. You can
see the blue summit of many an eagles
home in the far horizon when you
stand on Asnebumskit.
g shall deem myself we'll repaid if
you will not disturb my noble guest.
Certainly no Worcester man or boy will
lie in wait to do wrong to the American
eagle. He came on the 10Th of April,
our country's birthday, the guest of
Worcester county.
" Leave him to be the ornament and
glory Of the sky. GEORGE F. HOAR.

A Memory of Last Spring.

Leaving the throng of people,
Passing the buildings tall,
Out of the gates Of the city,
On past the boundary wall
Down by the ivied church yard,
Over the dusty hill,
Catching snatch of a silver song
Sung by a tiny rill.
Into the daiSied meadows,
Kissed by the old mill stream
Fragrant with scented blossoms
Wandered in a dream.
Watching the skimming swallows,
Listening to drOning bees,
Trying to learn the story
Told by the wind in the trees.
Thinking of bygone spring times,
Hoping scarce know what
STOPPING to pluck tender spray
OF blue forget-me- not II. A.

farmer should keep for profit Accord
ing TO my judgment and experience,
the "pea-comb white Plymouth Rock"

just as beautiful as they are profit
ablei even when dressed they have n
fine yellow skin and legs which s1li
them at sight. They are well built

house your fowls too close in winter;
give them plenty OF fresh air II your
poultry house Is too close, they become
damp and roup sets in and You VIII
perhaps lose the most Of your fowls.
Always supply plenty OF fresh air. but
not a cold air draft that strikes them
direct as that would prove just as
fatal MS dampncss.
Keep the lice away by using Persian
insect powder on your fowls and iIero-
sene on the rooste; do not put amy oil

Sow an early patch Of millet or

To do this the hog must retain

foods always tend To- produce in1lges-
