TIE LAST OF ITS RACE.

What is believed to he the sole sur
viving member of the family of pas
scnger pigeons that sixty years ago
used to fly in liocks of millions, liter
ally shading the sun. is closing her life
in the Cincinnati 700 at present aged
eighteen years her mate dying a short
time ago at twenty four years of age.
Although dilieent search has been
made by officials of the National Asso-
citation Of Audubon Societies for other
specimens of this once plentiful bird
and in spite of the fact that Il reward
of 81, 300 has been offered to any per-
sons finding Il nest of them, the search
has been thus far unsuccessful and the
reward is still unclaimed. AS late as
1877 a nesting place of these birds was
known in Michigan. which was twenty
eight miles long and four miles wide.
Audubon is quoted as observing nest
ing place of the pigeons in Kentucky
early in the last century which was
forty miles long and three miles wide.
Uither boys and men gathered and
slaughtered the birds with clubs, guns
and nets, bag of 800 birds III one day
being IA common thing for one person.
If more We're killed than could be car
ried off, droves of hogs We're turned in
to fatten ON what We're left. This
treatment greatly and gradually re-
duced the number of the pigeons until
some three years ago but seven Speci-
mems of the beautiful bird could be
I'm This ruthless
slaughter and its tragic ending may
we'll serve to enforce the Importance Of
preserving the useful birds not yet ex-
tinct. but which are slaughtered wan
tonly in their roosting places in the
south during the winter months.
To give satisfactory returns the flock
of hens must have something besides
corn and water for diet and some
more sunny and genial place that the
north side of barbed wire fence.
We have heard folks who gave their
| hens just about this much care won
der why it was that they didn't get
any eggs.
Probably the most valuable lot of ap-
pies ever grown was the carload of
Hood river Spitzenburgs which won
$3.50 in cash prizes at Spokane in
November and couple Of weeks later
captured another 1000 prize at the
| Chicago land show and were afterward
sold to commission house at a hand
some figure.
If the young pigs 'go down behind
as a result of leg or back weakness, or
both, it is more than likely that the
ration which they have been receiving
has not contained the amount of bone
forming material which it should.
This should be furnished in the shape
of wood ashes, or, better, in cob char
coal, with which some salt and little
sulphur should be mixed. This should
| be prepared and placed where the hogs
can eat of it whenever they like.

The Weird Excuse.

Mrs. Parkison OF one of the main
line suburbs met Mrs. Brown at Il so
cial function the other afternoon and
I'm the course of their talk told her this
story on Mr. ParkisOn:
Don't you know. Frederick did a
very peculiar thing the other night.
He came home from the club rather
late. and of course | had retired |
didn't hear him 90 To bed, but som"
time during the night | heard noise
I'm the room. awOke and WIS star
tied to trace the noise by sound to the
floor under the bed. | WAS 50 fright
ened | screamed.
Just then Frederick poked his head
out from under the bed.
whats wrong;" he asked.
"What on earth are you doing
there?" asked in return.
az must have been dreaming. he
explained, dreaming that was fixing
the blamed automobile Wasn't that
funny"
Very replied Mrs. Brown. THAT
was the night Mr.. Brown and Mr.
Parkison went to the theater together
Mr.. Brown came home late. too, and
went to sleep standing up In the UNI
brella rack, but he didn't have any
weird xcuse"-Philadelp Times.

1t is an interesting fact of natural
history that white horses are always
black as young colts. Did You ever
note an exception:

1t is estimated by investigators in
the employ of the biological survey at
Washington that damage to the amount
Of $1OOOO,OOO is done in the United
States annually by ground squirrels.
The bulk of this damage Is done in the
western states to cereal crops, pas
lures and orchards, while in California
this squirrel is known to be a spreader
Of the bubonic plague.

While the plump little eight pound
hen turkey or twelve pound gobbler
which you had for your Thanksgiving
dinner would not make 50 much of
show as the forty pound gobbler which
adorned the White House table, you
may derive consolation from the fact
that it wasn't so tough either, as the
big bird in question was a patriarch
Of the flock and had spurs two and
half inches long.

A friend who is a carrier on rural
route running out from a small town
tells us that one dog on his route
makes a quite common practice Of COM
ing out to the mail box when he makes
his rounds. Days when members of
the family are on the lookout he gives
the dog the daily paper, which he
takes carefully to the house. This is
better than raiding sheepfolds or bark
ing at passing teams.

Reports from Boise state that an
effort Is being made among state Off
cials and politicians to hush up the
land board scandal that was made
public as result OF the resignation
Of M. |, Church, for several years the
registrar OF the board. The scandal
involves Ex-Governor Goodings adj
minlstratlon as well as that OF Gov
ernor Brady and the people OF tho
state are not now In a mood to have
the facts suppressed and the scandal
hushed up as far as 1t Is possible for
the administration to do so. The
public especially those belong
ing TO the schools--are a heritage
which the state officials arc bound to
protect and II they fail TO do so the
shortage must BIO made good by tax
alton. The people want to know the
facts II valuable timber lands have
been appraised at $40 an acre and
sold to lumber syndieates without be-
Ing even examined. Such transac.
tions as this cannot take place with
out the knowledge OF the members
Of the state land board. The COVER
nor says that an investigation will
cost $4,000. The money would be
well spent II 1t cost $50 900. and such
m excuse viii not be accepted by the
people OF this state. 1t is not
partizan matter, but concerns the
whole state and the truth must be-
come known. Let the probe go back
TO the beginning OF statehood and let
us have q full and complete lnvesti-
cation regardless OF who is caught
IN the net Governor Brady cannot
AFFORD to become a party to It's sup
preston. Both he and Former Gov
ernor Gooding are posing as reform
ers and now IL the time to test their
sincerity. Let the probe be Inserted
and see the corruption fow--lt viii
benefit the patient.
