four weeks, the offspring gets out OF
the way as fast as rapid breeding de-
mands. The young birds begin laying
and setting when five months old, but
the first brood is generally destroyed,
as they are usually wealllings.
The pigeon house erected by Messrs.
Dickman and Fairburn is l6X16 and ten
feet high. on one side is tier of nests,
about forty in number. a thick bed oil
sawdust is placed in front of these
nests to prevent accident If the eggs or
Young fall out. On one side is a large
he'd of cracked oyster shells, and IN the
center box of grasses and twtgs which
the pigeons use for building nests. Ad-
joining the squad houses proper is
flying pen 16x30 and ten feet high,
wired in, with q gravel floor. In TINS
zen is the self-feeder which provides
food, which consists of cracked corn
and red wheat, with kaffir corn put in
occasionally for dessert The pigeons
rever eat any soft food. Each pair OF
birds require two boxes for nests. An
earthen dish is placed in one cote In
which the nest is built and eggs laid.
When the young are Matched out few
days they are placed in a smaller dlsh
in order to make them huddle closer,
and the male broods them while Mrs.
Pigeon commences a new nest and pro-
ceeds to raise another family. No two
oe the thirty pairs ordered by Messrs.
Dickman and Fairburn are related, and
when the young are Matched bands are
placed about their legs to keep their
family record straight. If they do as
we'll as the owners expect. the birds on
this farm will not be disposed of until
5000 pairs have been raised. There are
quite number of pigeon farms IN the
country where pigeons are raised for
trap shooting, but breeders of the Ply
mouth Rock Homers are scarce. There
is one in Boston that has 1900 pairs,
and one in San Francisco, where there
are $4,000 pairs in stock.

LET THE BOYS CAMP OUT.
A Few Weeks in the Woods is Sure
to Benefit Them.
[Chicago Chronicle.]

IChicago Chronicle.1
One of the commendable efforts OF
the Y. NJ. C. A. is in the direction OF
summer camps for boys.
Last year more than four thousand
boys were in camps by the ocean. lakes
rivers or streams and under wise SUI
pervision, which allowed the utmost
freedom possible to life and health.
The instructive longing of boys from
ten to eighteen years of age for the
primitive life of the hunter, the trapper,
the boatman and fisherman is as natur
al as it is healthy. The desire for
rowing and the longing for adventure
which lead many boy to run away
from home to satisfy these cravings
are gratified in the summer camps.
Few parents realize the almost saw
age restlessness of their boys, as they
count it as a sin, this desire for free
dom and the longing to be away from
the restraints of the home.
II they would take 1t into account
as part of the healthy nature Of
things and do their best to crafty it
in reasonable way they would save
themselves much needless anxiety and
promote in the happiest way the health
and moral tone of their boys.
Vacation schools are doing some
thing to care for the younger children
but many parents of older boys are
sorely perplexed to know how to keep
these boys from idleness and mischief
during the long vacation days.
Camping is an inexpensive form Of
enjoyment. for q part of the boys hap
piness comes from supplying his own
necessities and learning to dispense
with luxuries. He has opportunity to
develop the pioneers inventive spirit
and to play the part of q new Robin
son Crusoe.
A few week outing makes home
more inviting. The boy has learned
self discipline instead of lawlessness.
Mind and body both are invigorated by
the change and this is the best prep
aration for the work of the school year
Every parent who has the good of
his boy at heart WILL If possible, give
him taste of camp life during the
coming vacation. 1t will bring the best
returns for time and money invested,
save many doctors bill, many a lee
ture on morality and many foolish
desire on the part of the boy to escape
the restraint Of home.
Let the camping idea prevail.

THE FONDA SQUAD FARM.
Honda Times. /

Il
The raising of young pigeons for the
city markets, altho not general. is
business that has it's attractions as well
az its profits when properly conducted.
The SQUAD is considered one of the deli
cacies that epicures are willing to pay
for. and the better breeds, shipped at
the right age, bring as high as $3.50 per
dozen in the larger cities. Many raise
the common barnyard pigeons, which
bring about 50 per dozen. Fonda now
has SQUAD farm stocked with the
choicest breeds of Plymouth Rock Ho-
mer pigeons. The promoters Of this
Industry are George Dickman and
Frank Fairburn, who have entered up
on the business in q small way afte,
careful study and an intelligent lInowl-
edge of the business. They have pre-
pared a home for their stock that has
very facility for successful breeding
and have shipped in from the Boston
sauab farm thirty pairs of registered
pure-bred Plymouth Rock pigeons
tnown as the homer or carrier pigeon
They are a prolific bird producing two
baby birds each month, except Febru-
ary. The female lays two eggs each
nlonth, and commences Matching imme-
!iately. When the young birds are
hatched the male takes charge of them
and the female begins building, new
nest and again commences Matching

MOB RULE.
Davenport Times.1


Men and women are much like 9TH
er animals. Given a bell leader and
some purpose that will excite and
they will follow even to their death.
1t is not required that the purpose
be one that is high and ennobling.
such as to save ones country 1t is
enough that some wrong be assumed.
Then behold the mob! The riots at
Paterson, n. j., We're nothing more
than the effects of a leader and an
irresponsible gathering of men and
women with their animal natures pre-
dominating. Sayagery asserts itself.
The stones which are SO freely hurled
are the same weapons which the race
used in the forests primeval. The
benefit of all the years of training
is laid aside. Education is forgotten.
Development is ignored and reversion
to type is given full sway. These out
breaks, aside from the principal for
which the fighters are supposed to be
struggling, do people great injury,
the people participating more than it
does those against whom the activi-
ties Of the mobs are directed.

AN IOWANS CORN DEAL.
[Des Moines Register.

w. d. Blackmore, of Taylor county.
is rejoicing over the recent rise in the
price of corn. Mr. Blackmore has been
more interested in the price of corn for
the past several months than many of
his friends supposed. In fact, he has
been holding 10000 bushels OF corn
ever since last December, and it has
worried him little at times. During
the legislature there We're some days
that he was not in the mood to give
very careful attention to the lobbyists,
for he could almost hear the. ticker an
nouncing that corn was going down,
down, down. However, he did not be-
come discouraged, but held on when a
man of less nerve would probably have
given up and lost his margins. Some
times he had to grit his teeth to keep
up his courage, but he held on, never
theless. Now he is glad that he did.
Mr.. Blakemore purchased the corn in
December at 66 cents. The market was
not in a particularly good condition at
that time, and instead of going UP as 1t
should, according to his calculations, 1T
started on the toboggan slide. Day af-
ter day he watched the price slide.
Then the market would begin to look
up little, and he would feel more en-
Outraged. The general trend was
downward, however, and at one time 1t
reached SIS cents, or 5 cents below the
price Mr.. Blackmore had paid for it. 1t
was then that he found himself in the
hole" to the amount of nearly $4,000,
and wondering whether to let go or
take the risk of going deeper. lie took
the risk, and after time the market
began to mend. The bears who had
sold recklessly in the hope of forcing
the market down found that they would
have to buy, and as a result 1t began
to go up again.
On Tuesday July corn closed at 6I1s,
and Mr.. Blackmore, who had at one
time been $4,000 behind on his trans
actions, found himself in position
where he could have sold anG been
$4,000 ahead. He did not sell, however,
but instructed his broker to sell at 81
if the price began to decline again. He
is hoping 1T will reach so cents before
it begins to go back. Mr.. Blackmore
saws that this is his last big transact
ton in grain, and If he gets out of 1t
safely he will not tempt the fates
again.
