Some New, Old Games.

Here are some very old games. but
! am sure they will be brand-new TO
many Of our young readers. The first
is called Catching the Snakes Tail
and comes to us from Japan. where
It is a great favorite. The children
form In line, each with hands resting
upon the shoulders OF the player in
front The one who Is to act as
catcher" is left out. The first child
in the line is called the head and
the last one the tail" When time
TO begin the catcher" is placed about
Is feet from the head" at a signal
he tries to catch the tall or the last
child in the snake" without touching
any one else. The others may de
lend the tail" by moving about, keep
ing the line unbroken. for II the line
should be broken il Is equal to the
tall being caught and that unlucky
person must become the catcher while
the last named goes to the head Of
the line.
Now for the second game, called
Feather Play" 1t is very amusing,
although Il sounds SO simple. All the
players are seated on the floor, having
first countetd out" to see who will be
at" hollow square is formed with
a sheet held close up to the chins Of
the players on the floor. A feather Is
produced, little downy thing. and
blown back and forth by the players.
The trick is for the child who is 1T
to try to catch the feather on one Of
the children or directly in front of a
child when that one becomes ''it."
The feather must not be touched by
the hands of the children on the floor
nor must they rise from the floor;
their hands must be kept under the
sheet, all manipulations of the feather
being done by blowing.

Progressive Puzzle Party.

The requirements for this party are
children to make four at table, as
many tally cards and pencils as
guests, box of stars for markers or
punch and couple of prizes, more

Often enough puzzles may be Dor

There should be as many puzzles as
children. Some times the puzzles are
given as prizes. then each guest takes
home one. All these arrangements
each individual hostess must decide
for herself. The tally cards may be
made at home from colored cardboard
cut In the shape of an Interrogation
mark. Number each one at the top
and place corresponding numbers on
the puzzles. For instance, the players
who have number l, 2, 8. will take
puzzles marked /, 2, 3, 4, and go to

between the soil and the climate, the
balance necessary for the betterment
of the roads. Additional encourage
ment is afforded by the natural distri-
button of the material, which in most
cases is abundantly provided for all
needs.
In the eastern portion, where rains
are abundant. the question of drain
age is very important, and, more
over, a greater percentage Of sand
(65 to So per cent? must be used.
while in the west, in the semi-arid
sandhill section, the reverse proper
ton is not only permissible but often
necessary. In the east the road must
meet, as it's supreme test, continued
weG weather, while in the west con-
tinued drought furnishes a maximum
strain on the binding power of the
clay. In the east the road is likely to
fail by reason of mud holes and
washes; in the west it must resist
pulverizing and blowing away as dust
Between these two extremes lie all
the possible methods of sand-clay
road construction. Upon the judg
ment of the supervisor, therefore, de
ponds the character of the work tc
be done. He should know how tt

ENGLISH SPARROW is MENACE
So Regarded by Minnesota State En-
tomoloeist Because It Destroys
Much Farm Produce.

The English sparrow is looked upon
by the Minnesota state entomologist
at the experiment station as a menace
to farmers, not only destroying grain.
but also driving away useful birds.
The division of entomology suggests
that a very humane way of destroying
them is to feed them wheat for a few
morning in the winter. in a straight
line, in yard or field, and when he
birds have become accustomed to the
system to rake the line with a gun
loaded with fine shot. Wheat, 1t has
been said, may be soaked in whisky
and eaten by the sparrows inducing
such intoxication that they may be
picked up and killed. Destroying
sparrows' nests several times In sue
~cession, as they were built, has dis
couraged nesting In the locality. De-
struction by mean of active poisons
is not recommended by the division
because the dead birds are eaten by
cats, poultry, etc. The entomologist
mas discouraged their roosting during
the winter under the caves of his
own home and defiling the building
by the use of a small collecting pistol
Of fine shot, shooting them of theil
perches at dusk.

SECURE STAND
\ OF POTATOES
Potato Grower Should Take Stock
Of HIS Success IN Work to
THIS Point An Season
Moisture Is First.

(By c. L. FITCH. Colorado Agricultural
College.)
This is the time for the potato
grower to observe what sort of a
stand he has secured. to take stock.
as it were, of his success in his work
to this point in the season.
In the first place. moisture is nee
essary. A potato may sprout, but
will not root unless it touches damp
soil, and If the season and atmos-
phere be very dry, growth will be
backward, even with moisture be-
meath. The potato ground should
have been filled with moisture before
blowing, and the moisture held there
by stirring the surface shallow, as
with a harrow. If, however, the mois-
ture be not there. the potatoes must
be cultivated. ditched and irrigated,
and then narrowed le%ngthwise. as
soon as horses can be used.
A heavy rain following planting is
a great damage, because it sets the
soil of the tuber bed and will damage
the shape of the crop. Prolonged rains
will rot the seed. The best lands are
secured on fields that were plowed
in good condition, lightly narrowed,
quickly planted. and that then nap
nened to secure one long, gentle
shower. followed by warm weather.
Examine the hills that come up
last. after the run of the thrifty plants

HAVING Machines.

Equally wonderful have been the i'm.
provements made in machines for
handling the hay crop. The modern
moving machine is a marvel of simple
efficiency, says the Ohio Farmer. The
old revolving, w~ooden-tooth hayrake
has given place to the self-dump silky
steel hayrake. This machine can be
operated by a ~ten-year-old boy, who
can do more and better work than
could a nan using the old method.
The hay-tedder enables the farmer to
cure his hay quickly and greatly i'm.
proves the quality of the hay. By
means of the hay loader timothy, clio,
yer or alfalfa can be taken direct from
the swath and loaded on the wagon
With the modern sweep rake the hay
can be taken direct from the swath OF
cock and put into the stack with the
hay stacker. The derrick hay fork is
also used quite extensively, especially
when the hay is to be put away in the
NOW.
