Bromus Inermis for Pasture,

Br0mus inermis makes an excellent
pasture grass, as it shoots up in the
spring about two weeks earlier than
any of the native grasses, produces a
good aftermath or second growth, and
continues to grow especially late in
the fall. If the summer is dry it will
stop growing, and start again after the
beginning of the fall rains, but if the
dry period is not too long it will con.
tinue to grow from early in the spring
until late in the fall At the Kansas
Station we have grown Bromus inermis
in field way for four seasons. This
summer we have pastursd some youne5
stock. ranging from 9 to Is months OF

state, pigeons can select a variety of
grains, avoiding one kind and choosing
another, as their appetites dictate, but
when they are kept in a small en-

becomes highly important that the
breeder have good judgment as to
kinds and quality of food to set be-

upon. without removing them from the
coops. The judges do their work on
the opposite side from the crowd,
which is another advantage of this
arrangement. OF course the birds are
taken out of the coops and handled
when necessary, in any event. With
the old style OF coops, those open on
one side. there was always q semi
twilight when the Judge, clerk and
owners OF the birds got around them.
Then, too, 1t was always a nuisance
to have people crowding in between
the Judge and the clerk making rec

A dispatch from Somervil,e, n. J.,
to the Drovers' Journal says: A large
gray eagle. the first seen in this vi
cinity in many years, created con:
sternation among a herd Of cattle on
the farm Of Charles Covert, near
Mount Bethel. The eagle flew from
the mountains to the lowlands where
the cattle were grazing 1t took shell
ter in tree, and waiting an oppor
tunity swooped down on a calf of the
herd. The mother Of the calf and
several COWS surrounded the eagle and
forced it from it's prey. The eagle at
tackled the COWS and it's onslaught was
so furious that the animals were
stampeded, but they rallied again and
circled frantically around the calf
thrusting at the eagle viciously with
their horns each time it renewed its
attack on the smaller animal
The eagle resorted to strategic
measures, by driving the cows, one by
one, across the field. At this juncture
Covert, who had been attracted by the
disturbance among the cattle, ap-
peared on the scene with a gun. The
eagle alighted ON a rail fence to await
developments and a minute later fell
to the ground shot through the head
1t is one of the largest specimens ever
seen here and Covert will have it pre-
served. Four OF Covert's cattle had
strips of hide torn from their bodies
by the eagle.

the reason is because the old birds are
not properly fed. We should constant
ly bear in mind that a squad is very
different from a chick. A newly.
hatched chick can run about and help
itself to food and water. The squad,
on the other hand, is utterly helpless
at birth. I: is unable to walk and must
be fed in the nest with whatever the

have the power to eject from their
mouth into the mouths of their young.
After few days Of such feeding, the
SQUAD is fed on such grains as the
pigeon gets, and by the same process
of transfer from the parents mouth
to it's own. Hence it is essential that
proper food be given the pigeons.
