SPINNING ANT OF CEYLoN.

The spinning ant is found in In.
dia. in Ceylon, in the Islands of Nal
acca and in Australia. This ant
weaves its nest between two leaves
of a tree, preferably the mango. II
begins to build, or to weave, by
drawing two leaves together. To do
this it runs a line of it's working ma,
terial-material similar to the sp1d'
er's thread-the length of the leaf
around it. While at work it clings
to the leaf with its nails and, at the
same time, draws on the leaf nearest
to it. with its mandibles. Sometimes
the two leaves suitable for nest
building are too far apart. Then
the builder calls in its fellow ants
and they help it to form a chain
Each ant clings to the waist OF its
neighbor by it's mandibles. Thus en-
chained. they work to build the nesi
of their omrades.-Harper's Weekly

Some interesting information re-
Iating to the cost of municipal gov
ernment in the United States, asserts
the New York Mail, is contained in a
report issued by the census bureau
summing up the results of an investi-
CATION of conditions in the 15S lead
ing cities of the country. 1t appears
that in 1907 the cities represented in
this report spent in round numbers
S93,000,000 for police and fire pro-
lection; S37.000,000 for sanitation
and public health service; $4,000
900 for recreation, and 500, 100000
for education. During the year un-
der review the cities in this group
collected S600,000,000 of revenue
and borrowed an additional S400,-
100000 for improvements. The in
terest on their Indebtedness amount
ed to s3.04 per capita of their COM
bined population. OF the 15S cities
considered, 116 own and operate
their own water works, but only sew
enty-six own their market places.
The entire group, after paying for
maintenance, operation and fnsereH
charges on their Indebtedness, kad
available resources of $122, 100000
for new work. The plain inference is
that municipal government in THY
country, though costly, is solvent.

WHAT IS BEST TO FEED FOR EGG
PRODUCTION?

The proper food for fowls confined
in yards the greater portion Of the
year, and which cannot be allowed
their liberty. fowls under such con
ditions. should be given fresh sup
PLY of green food daily, with a suffi-
cient amount Of oyster shell, char
coal and grit kept before them all
the time. They should have
scratching shed with a deep litter
on the floor and large enough room
to allow them plenty of room to
scratch. 1t is best to put the scratch
feed in the house in the evening af-
ter the birds have gone to roost, then
they can go to work early in the
morning. Follow this about nine
o'clock with q good warm mash, com
posed of wheat bran, corn meal,
ground alfalfa, beef scrap, and
ground bone. The evening feed
should be whole grain corn in Win
ter. as it causes heat and the fowls
can also sleep better. Always see
that the fowls can find something
when they scratch, but have the litter
deep enough so that it viii cause eX-
ercise to find it.-National Poultry

POULTRY NOTES.

Charcoal is ore OF the most essen
tial articles in the food in successful
poultry raising. Place ears Of corn
on cob in oven until charred and then
shell off corn and feed to chickens.
An immediate change will be noticed
in the condition of fowls and egg pro-
ductiOn.
Give an extra allowance Of grain
at right. scattering it among the lit
ter, so that the fowls can be induced
to exercise before they get their regu-
lar breakfast.
Leg weakness in ducks is usually
caused by dampness. If the duck is
compelled to sleep in a damp house,
she is likely to be attacked with rheu-
matism or cramps. for which there is
no sure remedy. Overlooking will al
so do it.
The first one or two litters Of eggs
laid by pullets are not so serviceable,
so sure or profitable for Matching as
is their later product, for the reason
that they were first formed at time
when the pullet was growing and the
organs not fully developed.
Perfect cleanliness will cut short
the louise crop.
Set every broody hen. but not on
pullet eggs-that is, birds under nine
months old.
Keep your scraps where they will
not get stale and sour. Fresh feed
ic yUbo+ 11al<aC bp9IthV hens
To be always busy about the poultry
yards is not enough. See that the
work counts for something.
Feed the poultry earlier than you
did a month ago. When daylight
comes the chickens want their feed.

Around the nursery wall.

AN ELEPHANT YARN.

In the jungles of India there lived an
elephant who showed a wonderful sa-
gacity and mother love for its off
spring. One day the baby elephant
wandered away from its mother, who
showed her uneasiness at its alb.
sence. Reaching the top of a hill
she saw her darling quietly browsing
at the foot, while, stealing along, at
no great distance, was an enormous
lion. The mother was at her wits
end. She realized that the baby
would not have a ghost of a chance
against the hunger Of the lion, who
every moment was drawing nearer
to it's desired end. The lion halted
a moment directly beneath the place
where the mother stood More quick,
ly than it can be told, the elephant
rolled herself into a huge ball and
rolled down the hill. The lion never
knew what struck him. His feelings
were completely crushed, while the
baby elephant was led home, where
he no doubt got a severe scOlding for
going away from home without his
mothers permission.-Phil

RICO. WHO DOESN'T LIKE MUSIC.
I wish to tell you about my dog,
who is named Rico because he came
from Porto Rico. He is four and a
half months old, and is just learning
to bark. Rico is very playful, and
if we play with him in the evening
and then put him to bed he will cry
because he is left alone. l have an
other dog, named Prince, who is very
old, and he always growls at Ric2
when he goes near him.
We have a hedge around our
grounds and there are holes in 1t
where Prince goes through, Rice
following him; and I fear Rico will
go out on the street and never come
back again. Some mornings Rico
comes upstairs to my room and ]
don't know how he gets up. When

seems to be a part Of our nature, and
this desire seems to be everywhere
