LAW AND NATURAL HISTORY.

AS an argument to defeat the passage
of law by the legislature of a west
ern state to prevent the spring shooting
oil wild fowl it was gravely asserted by
men who certainly should have known
better that the wild fowl-ducks and
geese--which migrate to the south in
the fall mate and nest and rear win
ter crop of young birds in the south,
where they winter, and then, returning
north in the spring, raise another brood
in their northern homes. 1t is difficult
TO treat such ignorant stupidity as this
with any seriousness when the error is
so very palpable. All of our wild fowl
ducks, geese, swan, crane and more
all of our migratory birds, breed but
once a year, and while in some cases
two broods are produced in one year,
as in the case of the robin and quail
and occasionally with some other va
rieties, the second brood always fol-
lows closely after the first and is abso-
lutely confined to the natural period of
nidification-the spring and summer
season, wherever the birds may be To-
Gated. The spring flight of all wild
fowl is invariably made up of matured
birds, never any fiedgelings. The mat
ing occurs during or Immediately sue
ceeding this spring flight; the summer
is devoted to the rearing and care of
the young brood; the autumn migration
is forced by climatic conditions, which
shut off both the food and water sup
ply, and the four months are spent
where food and open water can be Sc
cured, recuperating for the next sea-
sons campaign. Among all the mil
lions Of wild fowl which swarm on
the lagoons of Texas and the gulf coast,
among all the swarms of robins which
populate the cedar swamps of the
southern states, there never is found
case Of winter breeding 1t seems
passing strange that men deemed wise
enough to make laws should be ig-
norant Of so well established fact in
natural history as the foregoing.

TWO EXPENSIVE MONTHS.

February and March are two eXpen-
sive months for all the country north
of latitude Al. Expenses always ex-
coed incomes. They are fuel destroy
ing, fodder annihilating months. when
one has to sit down and see the days
slowly eat up the earnings Of the pre-
vious summer-black and gloomy
months, when SO many old people die,
and epidemics prevail, and trains are
off time or ditched, and one gets wea-
ry of waiting for spring and liberty.
If these two months could be shipped
out of the calendar for the territory
named and January linked on to April
it would be good thing. 1t is during
these months that California pilgrims
make life miserable for their friends
left behind by aggravating and roseate
descriptions of sunshine, warmth,
fruits and flowers. their enjoyment of
these luxuries evidently intensified by
the knowledge that the rest of us are
stufiing furnaces, thawing out water
pipes. shoveling snow and fighting as
best we can temperature of zero or
worse for forty days at a stretch. If
we can ever find time we will go out
there when they are being roasted to q
crisp. cracked open with ten months
drought and fighting dust storms and
crop failures just to take grim sort
of satisfaction in knowing that things
are partially evened up after ALL

THE FAMILY HOTBED.

With the return of spring there will
be some readers of these notes who
will want to know how to build a
small, inexpensive hotbed. Select a
sheltered spot, open to the sun, for the
location of the bed. If new lumber is
used, nail two sixteen foot boards to
end pieces of length that will accom-
mOdate the sash you desire to use, hav-
ing the frame slope to the south some
six or eight inches. Drive stakes at in
tervals of three or four feet outside the
frame to prevent spreading, fill with
green horse manure, wet down and
plant your seeds as soon as things be-
gin to heat. Sow an abundance of
radish and lettuce, enough tomato,
caulifower and cabbage seed to furnish
plants for yourself and your neighbors,
and try as an experiment a paper each
Of sage, red pepper and eggplant, these
latter, with the cabbage and tomato
plants, to be transplanted into the
open ground as soon as danger of frost
Is past. Keep the bed well watered,
and remove the sash ON warm days to
prevent spindly growth. If you have
never had hotbed you will be sur
prised how much satisfaction this small
outlay of work will bring you.

RECOMMENDATIONS HARVESTING.

The following was tried last fall: A
man bought 1000 range yearling sheep
and turned them into fine eighty acre
field of corn in a western state. They
first cleaned up all the weeds, then
the leaves of the corn and then went
at the ears, and so thoroughly did they
do their work that not a bushel of
corn was wasted in the field and the
increase in mutton made gave him a
good price for his corn. He further
rid his field of lot of weeds and gave
1t coat of one of the very best of fer.
tilizers. This plan would only give
good results during dry fall

Literature, whether bad or good is
SO abundant and cheap that it finds it's
way into the hands of all sorts of peo-
pie and in all sorts of places. Not a
few good, honest farmers boys and as
many town boys are being corrupted
through the agency of tough hired
man and bad book in the haymow.
1t is just as well for the farmer with
