PRESERVE THE BIRDS.
Z Movement That should Receive the
Earnest support Of Every
American Farmer.

The destruction OF the birds has be-
come so serious "A matter that many OF
The most thoughtful minds of the coun-
Try have anxiously considered means
py which this wanton slaughter may he
stayed. We have the testimony OF the
leading scientists of the United States
TO show that unless the killing of birds
loon ceases. only very brief time Will
elapse before the feathered tribe will
become extinct. In such event the evil
consequences TO our agricultural inter-
lists are past all computation. The de-
struction of our crops by myriads OF in
,ects will be as disastrous as was the
fearful famine which has just devas-
lated India.
To avert such calamity various plans
have been devised. Among the states
men who have become interested in this
matter are Hon. George 4. Hoar, sena-
tor from Massachusetts, and Hon. John
L. Lacey, representative from Iowa,
both of whom have introduced bills in
congress relating to the question. MT.
Hoar's bill provides restrictions
upon the importations of the bodies or
plumage of certain birds; and upon
the transportation of the same between
the several states. Exception is made IN
the case of the ostrich, and some other
birds whose plumage can be taken with
out loss of life. Senator Hoar's bill has
passed the senate and now goes to the
house. This bill is numbered Senate
4124."
Mr.. Lacey's (house) bill provides for
extending the powers and duties OF the
commission of fish and fisheries so as to
include game birds and other wild
birds useful to man, by the propaga-
ton, distribution, transportation, IN

birds. If you are a friend to the birds
and to the agricultural interests ofyour

CHOOSING A LOCATION.
Some Points to he Considered by
Farmers Who Intend to Go In
the Poultry Business.

In the location OF a poultry plant
there are at least two very important
items to be duly weighed, writes a cor
respondent in Poultry Monthly. The
first is the selection of a suitab BILE neigh.
borhood or vicinity, available to good
market. The second is securing the
right site in given OBSERVATION-DISCLOSURES
site that will afford the fowls what they
require in the way of health and range
opportunities. Speaking generally, the
nearer a poultryman can get to hrs
adopted market where he disposes OF
his fresh eggs, poultry. etc, the better,
for obvious reasons. But, on the other
hand, it is best to keep out of the city
limits, as in small town or village
land is much cheaper, taxes are lower,
and there are less restrictions than in
city. So get as near the city as you
can get without getting into II and have
m eye to good easy roads connecting
your plant with your market. Time 10
money, and 1t is expensive driving ten
miles to market, when five are all that
should be necessary. Then as to site:
] would place highness and dryness as
Of principal importance. Cold is not
nearly SO bad and unhealthy for fowls
as dampness, the fosterer of colds, lung
trouble and roup. Build your houses, IL
possible. upon high and dry hills or
knobs, with sandy or gravelly soil and
free natural drainage.

WOMEN in BUSINESS.



A prominent business man recently ex-
pressed the opinion that there is one thing
that will prevent women from completely
filling mans place IN the business world
they can't be depended upon because they
are sick too often. This is refutrd by Mrs.
G. w Mansfield. business womsa OF So

them and they cured me as they also cured
