Next Month.

Prophet Hicks Predicts Bad storms Fo

The following is the weather condi
lions forecasted by Prognosticstor lr
Il. Hicks for the month of February:
he fret storm period in February
is centersd on the 4th, covering the
End to Eth. The same DAYS are
covered by the eliminating die
turbances of Mercury. About Sun.
day the 3rd to "Wednesday the 9TH
will be central days of q marked
disturbance. The first stages will
warm in most sections, with low
barometer and rain and thunder
southwark. High gales with possl-
ble danger need not surprise in
southern and central sections, but
the period will culminate in heavy
sleet and snow, high barometer
and rushing, bliZzardous winds
down from the northwest. We
caution all against the wintry
aspect of storm and weather that
are almost certain to visit most
parts at the closing stages of the
first February storm period.
Wintry, disagreeable weather will
fall after these storm days quite up
TO the resctionary storm days CEN
tral on the 10th and llth. On and
about these days there will be
marked changes to falling bsrome-
ter, warmer weather and more
storms of rain and snow. Another
decided change TO cooler, with high
barometer and northwest winds,
will result at the close of these 70.
dictionary storms.
The next regular storm period ex-
tends from the I4th to the 18th.
This period is also embraced in the
perturbations Of the vernal equinox.
This disturbance beginning about
the 10th, 18th and 18th will not sub
side until after the 18Th and Goth.
The closing storm period for Feb
rusry is central on the 9th. The
storms of this period will cuIminate
about March lst and 2nd.

A Useful Purpose.

So far as We know, Frank Leslie q
popular monthly is the only magazine
which aims TO make more Of it's cover
than q pretty picture or q catalogue of
it's contents or Its virtues. The pub
fishers have taken an educational %
well as patriotic step In selecting
each month q cover design after some
famous picture representing q crisis in
American history. The plan should
command the approval of schools and
we believe 1t will meet with the COM

QUAIL As INSECT DESTEOYERs.
Testimony of "a Prominent Steuben Count,
Fruit Grower

Testimony of Prominent Steuben County
Fruit Grower.
Those individuals who have not vet
learned TO appreciate the value of birds
on the farm and In the orchard should
read carefully the following from the
Angola Magnet: "SOme people think
qusils eat nothing but grain and veg
etable seeds. 1t is probable that sll
such have that impression from an ex-
animation of crops of qusils killed in
cold weather, when insects and worms
are not to be found, and when grain
and seeds are the only food obtainable
by the birds. Jerry Dutter, the fruit
grower and farmer living near Angola,
says that, having heard Pint Snyder
say that he would give five dollars for
quail with crop containing any kind
of insect food, he shot one of flock in
his corntield, just after planting time.
The bird was killed about . q. N. and
examination of it's crop disclosed one
cut worm, one white grub. three wire
worms and twenty-seven small bugs of
various kinds; and not a single kernel
of grain or seed of any kind was found.
Every body knows that chickens and
other domestic fowls eat ell the bugs
and worms they can find unless it be
potato. bugs and the notion that qusils
are unlike other fowls in this respect is
evidently erroneous Mr.. Dutter is
firm in the belief that the quail is one
of the farmers best friends

Aid to Railroads.

There are two bills now pending IN
the Legislature dealing with the ques
tion of voting aid TO railroads. One 10
in charge of Senator Lsymsn. The
effect of this bill. if it shall become Q
law. will be to repeal the law giving
townships the right to vote subsidies to
railroads. 1t was considered Yesterday
by the senate committee on county and
township business, and il will almost
certainly be fsvorably reported. The
other is the bill of Senator Charles,
which proposes to reduce the amount
of aid to $4,000 in any one township.
This bill was Monday passed To en-
grossment by the senate. OF course.
Senator Laymsn's measure is to be pre-.
ferred, because it would work o com
piete, instead of partial reform.
There can be no doubt that this sub.
sidy business ought to be stopped.
And as Senator Lsyman's bill will stop
1t. We sincerely hope that 1t may be

Tax Board Recommendations.

The state tax commissioners will rec
ommend TO The Legislature the passing
of three or four bills smendstory to the
state tax laws. One Of these amend
ments provides for the election OF the
county assessors at one election and
the election of the township assessors
IL the next The reason for that is THAI
there will then always be sn expert
enced assessor In office. Another pro.
vides for the assessment of Oil street
railways and interurbsn lines by the
state board instead of by the county.
An amendment was also prepared
changing the present township reform
law so that il will better hsrmonizs
with other laws.
The board will also recommend that
sIl township trustees end assessors
shall leave Office January l instead OF
the latter part of September ss they do
now, and that they shall make their
settlements 10 January for the preced-
ing calendar year instead of In Septem-
Der. AS it is now they make Q settle
ment for three months of one year snc
nine months of another. An amend
ment is also prepared for the building
of graded school houses. This amend
ment provides that if il is absolutely
necessary the board may issue warrants
covering five-yesr levies and require
the trustees to pay one-fifth each year.
As it is now 1t is impossible TO build
graded school honse in many townships.
