A MISTAKEN NOTION.

The other day in short country
drive we noticed a big hen hawk-false
ly so called, for there is not one in a
hundred of them that ever molests the
poultry yard-tacked up on telephone
pole with wings outspread. the idea of
the fellow who killed the bird evident
~ being to display his quarry to the
best possible advantage The bird
may have been killed as Il result Of a
mere desire to kill something. or 1t
may have been shot with the thought
In mind that it was real enemy Of
the farmer and hence ought to be put
out Of the way. Whatever the motive.
the killing Of the bird was mistake.
as exhaustive investigations which
have been made by the department Of
agriculture prove that this particular
hen hawk Is one of the best friends of
the horticulturist and farmer, preying
in all months Of the year on rabbits.
pocket gophers, field mice. common
mice and rats. 1t ought not to be u
difficult matter to persuade one who
has had orchard trees parked and ruin
ed by rabbits and mice, shocks Of corn
riddled by field mice or one who has
lost dollars and dollars worth of grain
in bin or crib by mice and rats that
the boy who goes cunning and brings
down hawk is real foe to the agri-
cultural interests Of the neighborhood.
The practice should be discouraged in
every possible way.

THE REASON FOR IT.

The theory of winter covering for
tender plants and shrubs-strawber
ries. pansies. roses. etc.-lies not in the
thought that the covering IS for the
purpose of keeping them warm. but
simply that such covering will shield
them from the rays of the sun and al
ternate thawing and freezing. The
truth here cited IS proved in the fact
commonly noted that not only plants
and bushes. but fruit trees as we'll,
which are located on the north side OF
buildings or other shelter always keep
through the winter better and seem to
be generally more thrifty than those
situated on the south side of such pro
lection. where they are exposed to the
rays of the sun. In view of the fact
noted the covering for the stra wberry
or rose bed should be only enough to
effectively shield the bed from the rays
Of the sun. Instances are not infre
auent where the plants seem to smoth-
err or kill out where the covering Is to-
heavy. Cornstalks made an ideal coy
ering for things to be carried through
the winter, as they permit Of clrcula
ton of air yet shield the bed from
thawing and freezing. Where these
are not available. loose straw. leayes
or other litter. free from weed seeds,
may be used

THE CHAMPION EAR.

The prize ear of corn exhibited ut the
national corn exhibit ut Chicago was
grown by L. 3. Clore Of Franklin
county. Ind. This ear and nine others
a good deal like it won for their owner
$3.50 In cash prizes. The prize ear
was valued Mt $3.50. this price being
paid for 1t by its owner rather than let
1t SO into other hands. The ear is OF
the variety known as the Johnson
County White. which Mr.. Clore con-
siders the best in the world. The prize
ear weighs one pound and seven ounces
and contains 1850 kernels, each one Of
which is worth 20 cents. Mr.. Clore
places so high value on this variety
Of corn and on this particular ear be-
cause he says he regularly grows from
ninety to q hundred bushels Of 1t per
acre. while the average yield in the
state is only about forty bushels. Mr.
Clore is up to date in every particular
and seems to have little patience with
those who are satisfied with old time
methods Of farming. He has raised
this same variety Of corn for the past
ultecu years ilIlu uiS ucNcIOpcu IL " u
remarkable degree. Mr.. Clore owns a
farm Of 12O acres, has spent good
deal Of time and money to develop and
enrich 1t and bring it to its fullest pro-
ductive capacity. during the past year
alone having spent SIT per acre for
underground ditching. If one We're to
visit Mr.. Chores farm he would doubt
less find things in general Of a pro-
gressive, up to date character.

IS THE CHANGE PERMANENT

While rainfall in the great southwest
seems In the past to have varied from
one extreme to another during cycle
or period Of years, there are many who
hold to the view>that the breaking up
of extensive areas of grazing land In
Texas, Oklahoma, Indian Territory,
Kansas and Nebraska has wrought a
permanent change both in the matter
Of annual rainfall and the prevalence
Of the old time southwest wind, with
its furnace heat, which used to scorch
and wither everything in Its path.
Those who hold this view explain the
change on the ground that. blowing
over increased areas of titled land and
cultivated crops, the winds referred to
absorb a greater per cent of moisture
than they did when they swept the
the result that they do not extract so
large a per cent from the soil and
standing crops as they pass north.
Then, too, the breaking up of the soil
has made possible better evaporation
Of the soil moisture, with the result
that the air has more Of this to deposit
in the form Of dew and rain. While
period Of droughty years may come In
the near future which may tend seri-
ously to shatter this theory, the expla-
nation given would seem to be a rea-
sonable one, based on we'll known
physical laws. In case this breaking
up Of the soil did not fully check or
prevent a period Of drought there is
little doubt that it would tend to great
~ modify the seriousness Of its effects.

A perusal Of the different instances
where little children are locked up in
the house while the mother goes to n
neighbours on an Grand and during her
absence the house catches fire and the
little folks are cremated would seem to
point out the wisdom Of leaving the
house unlocked when It Is necessary
for the elders to leave the children
alone. This would enable them to get
out OF the housein case It should catch
fire, while the chances are more than
equal that If they are allowed to run
outdoors the house won't be SO likely
to catch fire.
