Mr.. Ford is a lover of birds. lie
buys the seed in Detroit. carries il
out i'm his motor CIR and takes great
enjoyment in carrying the seed to the
bird stations. Bad weather does not
deter him, but rather makes him the
more anxious to do what he considers
a duty. Birds are everywhere and
Mr.. Ford feels that If he can set an
example for others to follow e will
repay his efforts. He will endeavor to
make his farm a model for the con-
9ervationists. Much will have to be
experimental. but much has already
been learned
THE United States biolcgical sur
vey and United States department Of
agriculture are greatly Interested in
the Ford farm and have asked for
data in regard to the species Of birds
on the farm, the success i'm nesting
and feeding, and Mr.. Ford and / are
gladly cooperating with them.
Besides the birds / have mentioned
there are at present 200 bronze crack

There are number of bob whites al
so. Shelter will be put up for the
meadowlarks and some provision made

TO KEEP BIRDS
THROUGH WINTER
HENRY BIRD, OF DETROIT, AIDED
BY JEFFERSON BUTLER,
PLANS UNIQUE EX-
PERTINENT.

Detroit Mich, Nov. An expert
ment that is being watched with in
terest by scientists throughout the
United States and Europe is being
made by Henry Ford, aided by Jeffer-
son Butler, president of the Michigan
Audubon society. on the formers 2,1OO
acre farm near Dearborn
The enthusiastic bird lovers are
attempting TO create of the Ford farpl
the greatest bird reserve in the world,
and to prove that by shelterng, pro-
tecting and feeding woodland deizens
during the winter months they can
be induced to ignore the calls OF the
migratory instinct and stay north all
the year round The government is
interested and is following the work
lcarefully.
Mr.. Fords intense love for the birds
has led him to take the most extreme
measures to reproduce on his farm
natural conditions. with subtle, artih-
cial aids that will charm his feathered
friends into staying the year round.
A carpenter is employed all the time
building shelters for the birds. The
Rouge river has been damned to pro-
vide swimming pools for the web-foot-
ed birds and grains, berries and fruits
that appeal to the winged creatures
are grown i'm profusion.
| Mr.. Ford's interest is not entirely
| with the birds. He provides for the
squirrels, chipmunks and rabbits ami
he has n herd of deer.
This year 500 shelter boxes were put
up for the birds" says Mr. Butler. To
whom Mr.. Ford has given almost conn
lplete supervision of the work. "Pur-
pie martins, blucbirds and wrens took
possession and reared their young.
However the boxes were not as sue
cessful as might be expected and a
machine is now being made to turn
out nesting boxes after the pattern
used by Baron Won Beleprsch, OF Ger
many. on his estate. The rustic STYLES
of boxes viii also be tried ana the
natural habitations reproduced as Far
las possible.
About dozen feeding stations have
lbeen built and conveniently placed
rood consisting of hemp, millet, crack
led wheat and sunhower seed Is dis
ltributed weekly. Suet is put on the
trees and covered by wire so the blue
jays and other large birds cannot
lcarry it away in large pieces and
waste it. At present the feeding sta
tions and suet are visited by about
100 myrtle warbuers, more than 100
song sparrows. about $50 juncos, sc
yesper sparrows, 30 white-throated
and white-crowned sparfows 100 tree
sparrows, 200 goldhnchos. n few field
isparrows. chickadces. hite-breasted
nuthatches and doWny woodpeckers.

The estate of the late Count Leo
Tolstoi at Yasnaya Poliana is to be
bought by the Peasants bank, gov
ornmentally financed institution. The
land was to be divided among the
peasants as the late Count Tolstoi
wished, but the family finally refused
consent on the ground that it could not
afford this. 1t is expected that enough
independent subscriptions will be re-
ceived To secure the house and grounds
a2 a resort for the faithful. The widow
is understood TO have made a good
bargain i'm the sale.

The second appraisal of the estate
of the late John Stewart Kennedy OF
New York gave the gross value OF
S67.l37,795. Surrogate Cohalan reject
ed the first appraisal because certain
securities were undervalued. Under the
new appraisal the state will get a
large transfer tax. Some $3O,0OO,OOO oil
the estate goes to charitable and phil
anthropic institutions under the terms
Of the will, about $17,O00,000 goes to
the widow Mrs. Emma B. Kennedy,
and $4,000, 900 more goes to relatives.

ment or interest. "Sevcn cities claimed Homer dead" and
six Of them lied, because their local pride was concerned. Hundreds
Of veterans families think "thc old man. put down the civil war.
The latest instance discovered Of history colored by family par
TALLY is that affair at Lexington. The tradition that Capt. John
Parker said to his minute men "Stand your ground.' rests on the
testimony Of his grandson, Theodore Parker, but a deliver into that
period says he said nothing Of the sort, but told his men to run.
An equally fattering tradition, preserved in the McGown family
OF McGown's Pass Tavern fame and recorded by "Fchx Oldboy," has
lately been shattered. 1t is not a fact that Andrew McGown misled the
British and saved the rear guard of the patriot army when it quilted
this island. 1t is not a fact that Irving ever occupied the house at
Seventeenth street and Irving place.
The Phlipse manor house at Workers was not built until 1880,
and the figures "16S2-1SS2' which were long upon its roof have
been taken down. The Friends meeting house at Flushing is no so
old by a good many years as it is rcputcd to be. Family pride to the
contrary Notwithstanding, Washington did not "slccp" in all the houses
which claim him; he was wide awake at least half the time.

GROUPED PUBLIC BUILDINGS.

~ HEY are talking again Of making a civic centre downtown
with the City Hall as its nucleus. There is a resolution be-
fore the Aldermen to create one by utilizing the City Hall,
the Hall of Records and the new Municipal Building in connection
with the new County Courthouse and other public buildings to be
erected on property that might be acquired north and northeast of
Chambers street. The American Institute of Architects, through its
courthouse site committee, has similar plans afoot.
A committee of the Municipal Art Society rendered a report in
1905 from which the following definition is taken: "The term
civic centre has been accepted by students of civic improvement
to include the grouping of public buildings around a park or open
space or plaza, so that to the advantages Of light and mir is added
the length of vision which enhances architectural beauty, while there
are also brought into closer relation those buildings which through
their uses by the public become the centre of civic lifc" Such groups
declare that no good building lives for itself alone, and that buildings,
streets and plazas may be made to display and reinforce each other
and create one architectural effect.
The ground work for a civic centre exists in City Hall Park.
Battery Park with the Aquarium and Custom House, set off by
greensward and harbor view, is another opportunity, marred though
it be by the interoping a." structure. Union and Bryant Squares
both have possibilities. The example of foreign cities urges our
laggard community not to throw away, by planting new buildings
haphazard, the chance for a cumulative architectural effect. The
Piazza Of st. Mark in Venice, the Kremln in Moscow, the lie de la
Cite and the Louvre region in Paris, the Ringstrassc in Vienna, the
paatal and governmental building groups at either end Of Bcrlns
Inter den Linden, the Place Dvorsovy in st. Petersburg, the
Grande Place in Brussels all demonstrate the power Of grouped
architecture.

Is YOUR TAX BILL LARGER?

= ONE people who own PROPERTY are ncedlcssy disturbed over the
increases in assessed valuations. These have not been made in
order to enhance taxes, but to borrow money for subway build
ing and several other purposes. Although they are considerable
some $780, 000, 00O-they will involve little increase in tax bills.
The State Constitution, as Mayor Gaynor has again pointed out,
'Himits. the { pacty of the city to incur Indebtedness to 10 per cent.
Of the value of the real estate in the city, as shown from year to year
by the assessment rolls" The increased assessments provided a Dor
rowing margin of $50 100000. Without that, as the Mayor says, eve
could not even talk subway for years"
How the increases work out is shown in the case, perhaps typical,
Of a Brooklyn householder. The assessment on his home was raised
$500, or from $1,000 to $4,000. His tax bill on the property was
$l36 last year and is $1,000 this year, or something less than he pays
for his daughters tuition at a private school. His personal tax bill
is a little less than last years. so that the net increase in taxes which
has come with increased assessed valuation is $500.
Let citizens examine their tax bills, not their assessed valuations,
IL they want to measure their burdens.
