Illinois Audubon Society.

The Illinois Audubon Society is an
organization existing for the protec-
ton Of the birds of the state. 1t is
exerting its influence against the wear
ing Of bird feathers in the hats of
women, for it believes that this has
been largely responsible for the de-.
crease of bird life in the past. The
aigrette is particularly Objectionable.
The securing of the aigrette plume Of
commerce Is marked by particular
cruelty, because the adult heron, from
which the aigrette is taken, are killed
at the nesting season, the young birds,
unable to care for themselves, being
left to starve in the nests. The soci-
ETY. is trying to create sentiment
against such practices, and is doing
this largely through the medium Of
the schools. The society would like
to increase its membership, and
wishes people to form affiliated. soci-
cites. The cost of membership in
the society is as follows: Member
ship fee, rs cents; associate member
ship fee, $100; sustaining members,
$500; active members annually,
$1.00. Associate, active and sustain.
Ing members receive all the publica-
tons of the Illinois society. The Sec
rotary Of the society is Miss Mary
Drummond, Wheaton, Illinois. She
will be pleased to answer correspond.
ents regarding matters pertaining to
the society.

Locating the Pasture We'll.

In many parts of the country the
practice Is followed Of placing a wind.
mill in the pasture and locating there
we'll from which water may be
drawn for the farm stock. This is not
only advisable, but necessary in a
good many cases. A man may thought.
lessly locate his well in position in
the pasture where 1t would be very
unserviceable in wet weather. In
passing a pasture where a windmill
was located on the top OF the highest
knoll, man remarked on the seeming
absurdity Of going to the top Of the
highest place to sink a well, when It
would have been nearer to water In
some other part Of the pasture. An
other man remarked that this was
done 80 that the cattle could have a
dry place to stand in wet weather.
In case Of any other location the
ground would soon be pounded into
quagmlre and the animals would find
difficulty in getting to their drinking
place, and the man that has the start
ing and stopping Of the windmill
would also find 1t difficult to get about.
Even In the care Of the windmill and
well on the top Of the knoll mentioned
the owner had made some efforts at
paving 1t by throwing in pieces OF
broken tile.

Attack the Weeds In Time.

One Of the greatest mistakes made
in regard to weeds is to permit them
to get a good start before attacking
them. Last week, in company with
a noted agricultural scientist, the
writer was passing a small farm in
which the stamp weeds were appear.
ing here and there. The college man
made the remark that they could be
all pulled out in about fifteen min.
utes now, but that II they were left
to grow and reseed themselves there

ton that the owner Of the field real.
iced their presence. The old saying,
"A stitch in time saves nine," will do
to revamp and apply to weeds. A few
minutes spent in their eradication
when they are first noticed will save
days Of time the next year.

Voice From Arkansas,

Cleveland, Ark, August Is (Spe.
cial) Nearly every newspaper tells
OF some wonderful cure Of some form
of Kidney Disease by the Great
American Remedy, Dodd's Kidney
Pills, and this part of Arkansas Is
not without its share of evidence that
no case is too deeply rooted for
L odds Kidney Pills to cure.
Mr.. A. e. Carlile, we'll known and
highly respected here. tells of his
euro after nearly quarter Of cen.
tury's suffering. Mr. Carlile says:
81 want to let the public know
what | think Of Dodd's Kidney Pills.
| think they are the best remedy for
sick kidneys ever made.
81 had Kidney Trouble for 20 years
and never found anything that did me
so much good as Dodd's Kidney Pills.
/ recommend them to all sufferers"
There is no uncertain sound about
Mr.. Carllle's statement. He knows
that Dodd's Kidney Pills rescued him
from life of suffering and he wants
the public to know It Dodd's Kidney
Pills cure all Kidney Ills from Back
ache to Bright's Disease.

In Favor of silaqe.

There are several good points In
raVor OF silage as a feed for diIiry
COWS, and these should not be over.
looked when the farmer is debating
what kind Of feed he will use. Its
dlgestibility is increased by the fer
mentation it undergoes, and by some
scientists this increased digestibility
is placed at about 20 per cent. With
silage more bulk of feed can be
raised to the acre than in any other
way. Nearly any kind of corn can be
raised for silage and a shorter season
Will bring 1t to the Safeguarding
stage than to the grain-producing
stage. 1t can be harvested in wet
weather and moisture does not harm
1t, which is not the case with corn
that is being raised for fodder. AS a
plant to grow it is not expensive and
our farmers all know how to harvest
1t. The feed that comes out of the
silo Is as succulent as the cow ever
gets and she will do as we'll on 1t as
on the best bluegrass pasture that
can be grown. Some feeders say that
their COWS do better on silage than
on blue grass pasture. Silage can be
used as a soiling crop as well as a.
winter feeding crop. This is a great
advantage when a farmer has enough
to last him over winter and into the
summer season. There is one thing
that should not be lost sight of IN re-
gard to silage and that is that it can
be carried over from one year to an.
other and its life can be extended
through a number of years. This is
not true of fodder. for in the course
OF time 1t deteriorates, though 1t may
be bright and good throughout the
first winter. None of our farmers
would think Of keeping fodder for
two or three years and feeding It to
their cows. The keeping quality of
silage makes 1t impossible to make the
abundance Of one year balance the
deficiency in another. Silage is very
convenient to use in feeding, probably
more SO than any other kind of rough
feed. Its use makes it possible to
greatly increase the stock carrying
capacity of the farm.

Women Prefer Blondes.

That women generally are admirers
OF the blonde type as opposed to the
brunette is sufficiently proved by the
frequency with which they bleach
their hair by the aid of peroxide Of

lions. The fact that most people have
fair hair in early youth would seem,
by the way, to indicate that our an
cestors were a fair-haired race.

Talk that Told.

The evening service on Sundays In a certain congregation was poorly at- tended. People thought they could not come out twice a Sunday to church.
 The Council talked the matter over. Their talk resulted in a pledge to each other that they would never ab- sent themselves, willingly, from the evening service, and that they would urge every one they saw to plan for a second attendance.
 The parents talked 1t over. They found that their children were not in the habit of spending the evening re- ligiously or proftably, and they de- termined to set them an example of an earnest devotion to spiritual con. cerns. They began going twice day the Sunday after.
 The young men talked 1t over. They concluded that 1t was their duty to attend both services, and to bring at least one young man apiece with them.
 The young ladies talked 1t over. They thought that, if they could go to a concert or party at night, 1t could not do them any harm to be at church after sunset. They decided that they would all go regularly, and take each a young lady with them.
 The minister did not know what to make of it. He began to flatter him. self that he was a latent Sturgeon. The attendance was increasing every week. Strangers. seeing the direction of the crowd, followed. It became the most popular church in the city.

He thought that 1t was good time to get off a joke on the old man, so he merely sent the message, "Is marriage a failure" He was somewhat taken aback when he got the reply, Mar riage is not, but the results sometimes aro."

Kind.Hearted.

The tenderest heart may exist in spite of the toughest exterior. A little fox terrier had been left outside Bos. ton store by its owner. Evidently the dog had not been long in the city, for 1t trembled with fright at being out of the protecting presence of its mas. ter. As 1t lay crouching in the door. way a huge laborer came along. Reaching down pityingly, he stroked the wee animal, speaking a few sooth. ing words at the same time. The re- suit was that the fear in the dogs heart subsided. It wagged It's tail knowingly and licked the kind-hearted mans hand. When 1t was left alone 1t sat up bravely, as though feeling assured that human beings would do 1t no harm.
