A Canyon Wren.

I had been in Tucson nearly a week
when one cold morning after a cold
night Gt was February y went down
into the Santa Cruz Valley and took
the road that winds-where there is
barely room for it-between the base
of Tucson Mountain and the river.
Steep. broken cliffs, perhaps hundred
feet high, were on my right hand, and
the deep bed of the shallow river lay
below me on my left, Here l was en-
joying the sun and keeping my eyes
open, when a set of loud, clear bird
notes in a descending scale fell upon
my ears from overhead. 1 stopped,
pulled myself together, and said, "a
canyon wren" 1 remembered a de
,scription of that descending scale. The
next instant a small hawk took wing
from the spot on the cliff when the
notes had seemed to fall My mind
wavered, but only for moment. "No,
no." I said, ''it is not in any hawks
throat to produce sounds of that quail
ity:" and l waited. A rock wren began
calling, but rock wrens did not count

Applying Farmyard Manure.

BY an experiment conducted at the
Ottawa Experiment Farm, and which
lasted over a period of years. it was
proved that an equal weight of fresh
stable manure and of well-rotted ma
nure, applied to all the principal crops
of the farm, gave practically equal re-
suits, slight difference being in favor
of the fresh manure, says James Nc
Fadyean. 1t is great mistake to be-
lieve that manure wastes to any ex-
tent when spread upon the land. I'm
less there is considerable fermenta-
ton, there will be very little of the
valuable elements escape by evapora-
ton. | do not recommend too heavy
an application at one time. We seek
to have it divided, so that it will cover
all the land every second year, if pos
sible. If the manure is reasonably
short, so that we may have it incor-
porated into the surface soil with the
disc or spade harrow cultivator or
gang pillow in the spring, and to about
the same depth as we wish to SOW our
grain, its indirect value to the grow
ing crop is greatest. Farmyard manure
is the most natural and perfect plant
food available, and it has indirect re-
suits that no commercial fertilizer can
give, because it adds to the soil so
much vegetable matter, so much hui
mus, by which all clay and sandy
soils especially are greatly benefited,
though not just yet available as plant
food. But whenever there is a decay
ing of vegetable matter there is al
ways certain degree Of heat formed
We see this very plainly in the ma
nure heap. Then let us have this
neat formed in the soil, that the grow
ing plants may derive some benefit
from it, and the soil will be made
more mellow, crumbly and porous, be-
cause of the heat and moisture.

sleepy, the Capitalist was cross AID
the Girl showed a perverse interest
in an Indian boy who sold the fruit of
the prickly pear The platform before
the train gate was crowded with every
sort of people. There were brown
men in scarlet serapes, meek-eyed
peasant women with the eternal blue
rebosa wrapped about their heads,
women of the middle class in black
shawls, rural policemen, brave in
bucksSin and sombreros, ablaze with
gold lace, and ladies and gentlemen
dressed in the modes of Paris and
New York
When all had found places in the
four classes of cars, each according
to his rank and ability to pay, the
little train crept out into the green
fields. In the distance on every side.
was a Gordon of mountain peaks. At
Ell Castillo they left the train and took
passage on a tram car that went oc-
casionally to the village of Juanacat-
Ian.
They approached a squat village,
dominated by great group of red
brick buildings. The Tourist listened
now for the roar of the cataract with
his hand to his ear, Strange that |
don't hear the falls" he murmured.
Perhaps they have arranged it so
the water falls on the cotton batting
they make in the factory, the Girl
rejoined.
AS they entered the village they
caught a glimpse of turbulent stream
that looked like a river of coffee. And
now they heard a roaring that was as
the sound of many waters. They left
the car and walked in the direction
of the clamor. They came to a bridge
over the river of coffee, wherein sat
a boy the same color as the water that
ran below. In his best De Tornos
grammar Spanish the Capitalist ac-
costed the boy ITO the river can YOU
tell us the way?"
Unmoved the boy answered, "Quien
sabe Senior" ('Who knows, sir").
They pushed on. "That boy doesn't
seem excited over the near presence
of a Niagara" the Girl said
They came now upon a great arched
doorway set in the middle of the brick
buildings Through the arch they
caught glimpses Of a yard filed with

FALLS OF JUANACATLAN.
CALLED THE
NIAGARA OF MEXICO

THE Falls of Juanacatlan are
known as the Niagara of Mexico" said
the Strenuous Tourist Here is a pic
ture of them on this fifty cent stamp.
We ought not to leave Guadalajara
without going out to see them"
He passed the stamp to the others
of the party, who tried to look deeply
interested in the tiny picture which
seemed almost reproduction of the
American side of Niagara Eyes, of
course we ought to see them" began
the Capitalist, but" Together with
the Girl and the Mother they were
seated on the parapet of the fiat roof
of the Hotel Cosmopolita. To the
west and south were green fields that
lay like verdant skirts on the lower
mountain sides. To the north and
west they looked on the roofs of
Guadalajara, lovingly known among
Mexicans as the Pearl of the West"
The fat house roofs were varied by
tree tops and church towers. In the
north rose the bastard Gothic spires
of the cathedral, to the left was
quaint, pierced facade, hung with
bells, while here and there were the
square and octagonal campaniles that
are the glory of Spanish Mexican
church architecture. Over the scene
hung the pensive peace of the late
afternoon
Any effort seemed an insult to this
quiet, but the Strenuous One con-
tinued: I'VE can leave here either at
half past eight in the morning or half
past ten and have day at the falls,
coming back in the evening. We can
see the cataract, now at its best in the
rainy season. and also the Bemejillo
cotton mills. They are run by power
gotten from the falls and employ"
The Girl turned her reluctant eyes
from the violet Swallowed mountains.
We'll, don't cram us with facts now.
Sufficient unto the day-you know the
rest"
The Tourist had some difficulty in
gathering his party together in time
to reach the half past ten train the
next morning, but breathed a sigh OF
peace when the tickets were bought
and the four were gathered in the
Central station. The Mother was

A portero sat on a soap box in the
doorway Again the Capitalist brought
forth his choicest Castilian and begged
to know the most direct way TO the
falls
The portero shrugged his shoulders.
But first see the cotton mills-they
are more" He called a guide who

industry until even the Strenuous
Tourist felt saturated with facts. They
saw Senior Bemejillo himself-a short
heavy man with a Wellington nose,
who was dressed in white duck and
wandered meekly about the great
property he had created in the desert.
When the inspection was finished the
Capitalist ventured to ask the guide
the easiest way to the falls. 1T is
over there" he replied waving his
hand vaguely to the west.
Lets have something to eat and
look for the falls afterwards" the
Girl said. The Mother awoke from her
state of somnambulism and seconded
this request. The Tourist groaned-
his companions were ever so eager in
the pursuit of restaurants and so luke
warm in seeking improving sights.
They had no trouble in finding the
restaurant, although it was but a sin
