MES, and in a few weeks we had more
crows among us than we had seen in
years. We gave notice that any one
caught killing crow would have to
hunt other quarters. The next season
something like the old-time colony
came f1ocking in and that fall we
gathered the biggest crop Of corn we
had raised in five years. We actually
petted them crows, and nothing was
too good for them. And they forgot
and forgave, and kept heaping Goals of
fire on our heads to- such an extent that
in four years that prairie was turning
out sixty bushels of corn to the acre
again, and the blue grass was back to
it's oldtime yield. As the corn crop in
creased the number of crows that made
their home with us decreased. That
was because they had thinned out the
grug crops so that there was no use for
so large force to work there, and they
went to other fields. But there has al
ways been enough crows around Ash

PROFIT FROM REFUSE.

New York to Extract Perce,tage
From the Collectors,
All of the wastes, other than those
above described that Is, paper, broken
furniture, cast off clothing, bottles box
es, barrels and all manner of refuse for
which the householder or the store
keeper has no further use, and which
has thus far found its way legitimataly
or surrepitiously into the streets, is to
become the subject of special separate
treatment The placing of these sub
stances outside the house, whether in
receptaces or not, will be prohibited.
On signal the department paper cart
will call within short time at any
house and will remove the refuse and
rubbish of whatever character without
charge and without littering the
streets. This collection will contain
everything, aside from the fat and
bones, which go to the garbage collector
from which the scow trimmers have
thus far extracted value. They will be
collected in much better condition than
hitherto because they will not be soiled
with ashes and street dirt nor wet by
rains They will be taken directly to
covered sheds, conveniently located in
different parts of the city, and picked
over by contractors who will pay to the
city certain percentage of the sum for
which their collections are sold. The
departments superintendent of final
disposition will have entire charge of
the sales, so that the city's interest will
be fully protected. How much will be
recovered in cash value it is impossible
to determine or even to guess. If 1t
could be made to equal u per cent for
each member of the population it would
more than pay the entire cost drumming
the department of street cleaning and
of sprinkling the streets. OF course no
on can say that it will be possible to re-
cover any particular sum per head; but
we have the experience of Paris to JUS
tify our hopes that the amount result
ing from this work will be very large,
for in 1892 the Al, 900 rag pickers of Par
is. who are we'll organized, and the
statistics of whose business are obtain
able. sold matter collected from the
house receptacles and streets of that
CITY to the value of more than So. 200 900.
1t VIII be seen by the ABOVE that
street cleaning as carried on in New
York means very much more than the
mere sweeping of the pavements and
the removal of the sweepings and of the
contents of ash barrels. The depart
ment is an enormous organization, en-
pIoying about 5000 men and 500 horses,
and its management involves the care
full and close control of all of the details
of practical work set forth in the above

mouse pokes his head through the small
aperture leading to the revolving wheel

He takes few whlrls ut the treadmill
