This is the season when farmers
feel glad, and why shouldn't they ?
Out in the sweet, ozone-laden air,
with the sweet songs of the birds
about them, they are earning their
bread by honest toll in the most
healthful manner known. They
work up a keen appetite and enjoy
their food, no matter if they have
not variety Of fancy delicacies to
select from. Their well-earned rest
is sweet and refreshing. They are
the nearest to Nature of all men,
and it is no cause for wonder that
they are the happiest. They are
the first needed among men, for we
all have to rely on the farmer.
What would we do without him?
All honor to him; may his full
value never be underestimate

CLEAN UP THE LAKE SHORE.

An effort should be made by
people living near and owning
property on the lake shore to clean
up as much as possible near the
shore line before summer visitors
arrive. Dead wood and trees and
all other unsightly distractions
should be removed, not burned on
the shore, as burning them there
leaves ashes and charred wood
which soils visitors clothing besides
making the shore unsightly where
it would otherwise be nice, clean
sand. Most of the land on the
south shore of the lake (where
Lardo is situated) is possessed by
non residents who are never here
to take part or bear a hand in any
improvement that is made. This
is unfortunate, and is a drawback
to the place, making anything in
the shape of improvement hard
ship on the few residing here. But
the latter must do their part if they
wish to see the place occupy the
position it should as an attractive
summer resort sought by thousands
OF people. Making the place pleas
ant and attractive is the surest way
to have visitors return again.
Nature has done her part, but the
people will have to do little too.

There are boys so thoughtlessly

go about with guns trying to kill
the song birds that have just come
back as the harbingers of the COM
ing spring Not only is it unlaw-
full to kill robins, blue birds, larks,
woodpeckers, thrushes, orioles.
grosbeaks, ceder birds, blue laws.
and many other familiar feathered
songsters, but it is cruel and bar
barous in the extreme. No kind
hearted, right-minded person would
want to slaughter the song birds.
The law seeks to protect the song
birds and every intelligent citizen
should seek to aid in checking the
brutal warfare that so many bows
and men wage in spite-o of the state
laws passed to guard these little
creatures that are most useful to
man, as well as giving attraction to
avn, field and forest by their pres

should be taken in hand by their
