THE SNOWY EoRET.
Women Use His Plumage to Besu-
tify Their Headgear.


These birds sometimes stray through
the middle or northern states, but their
home Is in the south. In the southern
states, and particularly in Florida, they
used to live in vast colonies. Now they
are being surely and quickly put out OF
the world by the cruelty and thought
lessness Of house people-the particular
kind of house people that wear women's
hats and bonnets.
Once these egrets covered the south
ern lowlands like drifting snow-for
they are beautifully white. In the
nesting season when many birds are
allowed some special attraction in the
way of plumage, punches of long, slen-
der, graceful plumes grow on their
backs between the shoulders and curl
up over the tail.
In an evil moment, some woman. imi-
tating the savages, used bunch of
these feathers to make tuft upon hel
headgear. From that day, the spot
less bird was doomed to martyrdom.
Egrets, as the plumes are called, like
the birds themselves. became fashion
able trimming for bonnets and have
continued so to this day, in spite of law
and argument. This would seem to
show that many women are savages
still, notwithstanding their fine clothes
and other signs of civilization.
These herons only wear their beauti--
ful plumes in the nesting season. when
1t is the height of cruelty to kill birds
OF any kind. and this is what happens:
The nests are built Of sticks in
bushes and trees above the lagoons.
When these nests are filled with young,
as yet too feeble to take care of them
selves. and the beautiful parents are
busy flying to and fro, attending to the
wants Of their helpless nestlings, the
glide among the nests. threading the
Watercourses in an Indian dugout or
canoe. and when once within the peace
tul colony, show themselves with bold
brutality. Well they know that the
devoted parents will suffer death rather
than leave their young in such dan
ger.
Shot upon shot rings out in repeated
volleys, each followed in turn by the
piteous cries of wounded birds, till the
ground is strewn with hundreds Of the
dead and dying. Then the cruel hunt-
ers tear off the plume tuft from the
back of each victim as the savage does
human scalp. and move on in search
IT another heronry. to repeat this in
human slaughter of the innocents.
But this is not all. The young birds
must either perish slowly of hunger. or
be swallowed by snakes.
Ostrich plumes are perfectly harm
less decoration, for the bird earns his
own and his masters living by growing
them. without losing his life. They
are the only kind of feathers that
should be worn for ornament-From

OLD OATS 81 sr FOR HORSES.

Never before In the history OF the
horse market in this city has there been
such demand for high class horses as
there is at present in New York, says
the Daily Telegraph of that city. New
York, as the metropolis of the western
world. has always presented an excel
lent field for the operations of the deal
er or breeder who confined his business
to the sale or raising OF first-class stock.
In this city or in the nearby outlying
districts reside thousands OF wealthy
men to whom the possession of a stable
of horses Is necessary adjunct to the
enjoyment Of life.
There wa a time, not many years
ago, when only few of the wealthiest
men in the community owned fast
roadsters. They were and are yet en-
thusiastic horsemen to whom the pleas
ure of an inspiriting ride behind we'll
bred and fast moving animal represent
ed the acme Of recreation. But of late
especially since the speedway became
nm established fact, the fad has extend
ed, until at the present time every
one who can afford the luxury is either
In possession OF good horse or looking
for one. One has but to take trip over
the favorite driveways almost any
pleasant afternoon to realize the ex-
tent to which this form of outdoor
pleasure has become general. Hundreds
who several years ago did not know
how to drive, are seen handling the rib
hons over horses that can step close
to the 2:20 mark.

FARMER GIRLS.

FARMER GIRLS.
We clip the following from the Chica-
go Journal: Fifty girls have taken up
the study Of scientific farming at the
Minneapolis College Of Agriculture and
the result of the new departure will be
watched with interest throughout the
country as affecting the welfare of the
sex. II the innovation shall prove sue
cessful 1t will naturally spread to other
agricultural states, and It's most inn
portant results may turn out to be So
cial rather that directly agricultural in
character. Heretofore the great draw
back to farming has been the difficulty
of keeping the boys upon the farm.
With trained and educated girls taking
up the profession. the old homestead
farming would take on a new charm,
and the hegira of farmers sons to the
cities would be checked If not entirely
done away with.
1.-The character of instruction under
taken by the young girls at the Mime
apolis college is thoroughly scientific,
emphasizing the sciences of botany,
chemistry, physics and geology, and
requiring during the freshman and
sophomore years at least two years
work in each of them.
We hope that the number of agricul-
turally educated girls may nightly in
crease. Much better than the bachelor
girl would be the farmer girl. And
why not the farmer girl? Farming is
more profitable. healthful and agree
able. and infinitely more independent
than writing shorthand or keeping
books or clerking in store or teaching
school, Some Of the most successful
farmers in the world are women. 1t
may be that the farmer girl will not
keep the boys on the farm-we hope
she will: but at least she will keep
herself on the farm, and she and the
farm and society will be the better be-
cause OF that. Again we say, may the
tribe Of farmer girls nightly increase.

DEAR JOHNSON: Your request for $50

At the various times when l have helped
you little, you have said to me: We can
get along very well now; but in very short
time find you in the same difficulty again.
Now, this can only happen by some defect
in your conduct. What that defect is, |
think / know. You are not lazy, and still
you are an idler. / doubt whether. since
saw you, you have done good whole days
work in any one day. You do not very
much dislike to work, and still you do not
work much, merely because it does not seem
to you that you could get much for it. This
habit of uSeleSSly wasting time is the whole
difficulty; and it is vastly important to you,
and still more so to your children, that you
should break the habit. 1t is more i'm
portant to them, because they have longer
to live, and can keep out OF an idle habit
before they are i'm it easier than they can get
out after they are in. You are now IN need
of some money; and what propose IS that
you shall go to work, tooth and nail, for
somebody who will give you money for it.
Let father and your boys take charge of
things at home, prepare for a crop, and
make the crop, and you go to work for the
best moneywages, or in discharge OF any
debt you owe, that you can get; and, to
secure you fair reward for your labor,
now promise you, that. for every dollar you
will, between this and the first of next May,
get for your own labor, either in money or
as your own Indebtedness, will then give
you one other dollar. By this, il you hire
