After a lapse of eleven months a dis

SO apparent were the mistakes of the
citizens that the board of county COM

ing the siege of Paris no fewer than
100000 official dispatches were sent
by pigeon post, as well as 100000
private messages and 100000 francs
in postal orders. Photography was
pressed into the service of this pigeon
post, the messages being photograph

light that a single bird could carry

to Like Them.


Various arrangements for nesting
boxes in the henhouse have been
suggested, but the best is, for all gem
eral purposes, the plain box hung on
two nails so that it can be taken
down easily. The groceryman's box
pile will furnish an abundance of ma
terial to select from, as the boxes
do not need to be uniform in size
About IL inches square and five
inches deep is what is wanted. Nail
two cleats to the back, allowing them
to project six inches above the box.

the box is hung on two tenpenny
nails driven in the walls of the build

GRANDMA's BERRY PIE.

I like to go to Grandma's when vacation
days come round,
She lets me play in the hay and roll upon
the ground;
She's good to little boys like me, and gives
'em lots to eat,
And says she doesn't mind 1t If a fellows
tooth is sweet.
Her things are always "home- made" and
they're better than you buy.
You ought to taste, for instance some of
Grandma's berry pie.
She keeps it in the pantry, way up on the
second Shelf
And when you're good she tells you you
can go and help yourself;
1 climb up on the barrel and cut great
big slice,
And when the red juice oozes out, my!
doesn't it look nice?
j try TO mind my p's and as as Grandma
says / should.
If your reward is berry pie, it pays you to
be good.
Some days I go a-fishin' in MacMurry's
pool for pike.
And Grandma fills my dinner pail with
things she knows like;
bait my hook and throw 1t in and watch
till by and by
1 seem to grow real hungry for a piece of
berry pie,
And as i sit upon the bank and wait, and
wait and wait,
] wonder If the fish would bite with Grand
mas pie for bait

ALFALFA IS VALUABLE.
II Supplies the Missing Link Between
the So-CaIled Mixed Farmer
and the Stock Raiser.

The uses and value of alfalfa make
that wonderful clover a most desirable
addition to the list of products of any
state. II. A. Haste, writing in the
Northwest Magazine, quotes one au-
thority as saying: Alfalfa is the big
thing in Colorado agriculture; it
makes flesh, bone and muscle for the
farmers horses; it makes flesh and
fat for the stockholders; it makes milk
for the dairy; it makes nectar for the
honey bee; by rotation of crops it fer
tilizes the soil and makes the larger
profits in our wheat; it makes money
for the farmer and beauty and wealth
for the state"
AS an example of what alfalfa is do
Ing as pasture in Nebraska, Mr.. Haste
says he found on the Hoffman and. Rol-
lins ranch in Antelope county 165
steers and 250 hogs were pastured on
a 65-acre field from April 25 to Octo-
Der and were not able % keep down
the grass. Another field of four acres
supported II head of cows during the
season and yielded in addition one
crop of hay.
From careful examination of the
reports of experimental stations and
from information gained by conversa-
tions with alfalfa farmers, | am con-
Vlnced that, as pasturage, one acre of
alfalfa hay is worth five acres of other
grasses. In milk producing capacity
one ton of alfalfa hay is worth three
tons of prairie grass. When this esti-
mate is considered in connection with
the fact that alfalfa yields an average
of four tons year, per acre, the in
fluence of its cultivation on the beef
and dairy interests can be readily seen.
BY increasing the pasturage capacity
of the farm and ranch it enables the
farmer and ranchman to increase his
herd. BY increasing the flow of milk
it enlarges the monthly revenue from
that herd, by furnishing an excellent
food for calves it enables the farmer
to increase his heard while receiving
n monthly check from the creamery
for his butter-fat, Alfalfa makes the
combination of dairying and beef
raising not only possible, but the most
profitable thing to do. 1t fills the gap
supplies the missing link-between
the mixed farmer and the stock rails

BRIGHT INDIAN GIRLS.
Qunnnh, Chief of ComnnchcH, Has
Two Daughters Who Are Thor
Oughly Civilized.

Quanah's| mother, Cynthia Ann Pnr-
ker, was a white girl captured in Texas
by the Comapches when on one of
their bloody maurauding expeditions.
She grew up in the Indian camp the
idol of the tribe, and at an early age
became the cherished wife of their
chief, Nocona, father of the present
chief, Quanah, refusing to return to
her people When the opportunity pre-
sented itself in later years. '
The chief reveres the memory of his
white mother, and contrary to the un-
written law of his people, possesses n
handsome life-size oil painting of her,
which hangs over the organ in the par
lor of his comfortable home near Fort
Sill, OKLA, the home of the Kiowa and
Comanche nation. In this modern two
story white house are to be found many
