Birds Made to Order.

their indomitable patience and their
incompatible ingenuity, they can pro
duce new kinds of birds as a mix
liner can produce new kinds of hats.
They have a pet sparrow that is
perfectly white. Do you know how
they make him? Well, they take a
pair of the palest sparrows they can
find, and keep them in white cage
in a white room, where their only
attendant is white-robed servant.
The result after a series of genera
tions, is a pure white sparrow, Or
so. at least. the Japanese have told
me-
They breed also a rooster with
tail almost as big as peacock's-

with a very fine tail. They make him

WHAT OF THE FUTuREa

Wisconsin's area is specially
suited to dairying and stock
raising. The clovers, alfalfa and
peas thrive wonderfully and as
sure that these lands need never
be lacking in nitrogen which is
so essential III land. Glover
pIowed under adds humus. Barn
yard manure adds phosphorus
and other essential ingredients.
This assures continual fertility
without the heavy outlay for
commercial fertilizers, common
to most sections. Settlers should
construct silos as soon as pos
sible, as Northern Wisconsin corn
makes wonderfully valuable
silage the form in which corn
should he fed. Analysis has
shown the clover and alfalfa of
this region to be much superior
in protein than that of southern
scctions-a very interesting fact
to the dairvman and stock raiser.
Throughout this great area
are almost nnmberless magnit-
cent water powers, the early de-
velopment of which will be forced
bv the increasing cost Of coal.
Many are now developed and at
each a prosperous manufacturing
town is springing up. The pro-
cess of Harvesting these powers
is continually going on,
The effect of these industries,
and the cities they are building,
on the increased future value of
farms in this section should be a
matter of intense interest TO
home-seekers, The fact that i'm
proved farms in this partially
settled area are held around 500
per acre is a suggestion OF their
future worth when the country
is fully developed industrlallv as
well as agriculturallv.
There is no desire to minimize
irrigation and dry farming as
features in our agricultural &C
tuitv-far from it, for both
must be looked upon as finally
necessary, But we believe them
to be movements that should be
prosecuted By men of experience,
wide adaptabiliJy and especially
of ample means. In this view we
are supported by the experts OF
the federal agricultural depart
meuts aud we believe by all the
essential elements Of the situa-
ton.
The men of means and exper-
fence and speculative instinct
who go to those distant points
to win or lose in their efforts
deserve the plaudits of all, Let
them do it while people without
expert ability or meanSto hazard
are developing our fertile Wiscon-
sin areas into fine farms with
beautiful homes.
Farm lands in Northern Wis
consin are increasing in value. it
is said, because of heavy crop
production. The lands are sell
ing rapidly and the investors
and settlers are buying faster
than ever before. Northern Wis
