A Mstaphor Wlth ! HI.tory.

To "know a hawk from a hernshaw"
is a metaphor with a curious history.
1t is comparison drawn from fal-
conry. ''Hernshaw" is a corruption
OF 'heronshaw," or young heron, bird
which was a common prey OF the fall
cons. To know a hawk from a hern-
shaw is therefore to be able to dis
tinguish the falcon from fts prey. A
further colloquial corruption crept into
the phrase-"to know hawk from a
handsaw." a form used by Hamlet in
one place. Possibly the distinction be-
tween a hawk and a hernshaw was
found not to lie strong enough for the
purposes OF the proverb.-Manchester
Guardian.

RAIN CHEERS
THE GAMERS
7. J. Meehan Believes Crops
Have Been Greatly
Benefited

"The coming Of the badly needed
rains and the breaking of the drouth
makes the situation regarding crops and
the canning trade more cheerful and
relieves the anxiety exhibited by the
packers" says Thomas ]. Meehan, one
of the Eastern Shore Gamers.
"The success Of the packing business
and of the crops depends" he said,
upon whether the next two or three
weeks will be marked by enough rain
or whether the days will be without
rain and of high temperature. Should
no rain fall and If the temperature
rises, the hot sun will serve to scald
the crops in the field and the good
effects of the dronthmaking showers
will be counterbalanced"
The early corn crop did not benefit
by the rains, as the crop had already
advanced to such an extent that the
rains came too late to do it any good
The other corn crop doubtless re.
ceived a great deal of benefit.
1T is problematical." said Mr.. Nee
han, whether the damage done the
| lpmdlo tIoD VIII be overcome DN the
rains. as it has already suffered by
the drouth. If, in the next few weeks.
there is at least one good. steady
shower a week, the crop may turn out
to be a fair one and afford a good
pack. but if another dry season sets
in the tomatoes. now moistened by tire
rains, will be dried up faster and scald-
ed to death.
owing to the reduced acreage Of to-
matoes this season the crop, even
under favorable conditions, will moi
be large.
"Other packing crops are already ir
the cans, but this year there was only
half crop of peas; strawberries wers
in smaller quantity than usual ano
there was only half a crop of rasp-
berries"
Mr.. Meehan said the peach crop thi.
season would be the biggest in tn,
last seven years. He said the tree.
and the fruit were in excellent condi.
tion and that the drouth had como
