 went to the hospital, and they oper- ated on me, but got no better. They said medicines would do me no good, and thought I would have to die.
 At last I tried Cardui, and began to improve. SO continued using 1t. Now, am well, and can do my own work. I don't feel any pains.

Killing Friends and Feeding Enemies
By c. r. Barnes in Home and Farm.


and audacity which enabled them to
accomplish such a ruin:
Nailed to his barn DOOR was the
carcass of an owl which he had shot
and nailed up as a warning to 9TH
ers of it's kind. In the stomach of
that owl, which was opened in the
presence of the stricken orchardman
by an expert of the federal biological
survey, were found the remains of
nine field mice. That owl, a real ben
efactor, had been destroyed by the
man whose orchard he had been
striving, with all gourmand's ener-
gy, to conserve.
He was a friend and a fellow
worker, and yet you killed him. said
the scientist as he turned to the
orchardman. He came here to
eat the field mice and try to
save the orchard. He was dining
well and he would have called friends
and family to his assistance if he
had been left alive. Your trees are
gone and you have yourself to blame
for the loss. Hawks and owls are
orchardman's assistants, and you
couldn't do any better than to start a
new orchard and start at the same
time propagation houses for the
growing of those species of BIRDS
This particular instance of the
costliness Of the warfare waged
against the birds and animals which
prey upon mice is more striking
because the loss was concentrated
upon single individual. But that
is poor agricultural township in
deed where the loss to- the whole
number of farmers, from the same
cause, does not aggregate $4,000 a
year.

TEXAS GREAT COTTON CROP
Largest in History of State and in
Order to Gather 1t Thousands of
Negroes Pick by Moonlight,

HOUSTON Texas.-One of the
largest, if not the largest, cotton
crops in the history of the product is
being gathered this year in the south
eastern section of the United States.
Only the final figures will prove the
contention of the many experts that
the crop will run from $4,000, 900 to
100000 bales. The more con-
sentative contend the output will be
below the former figure, yet the be-
lief is general that the output is one
of the largest, if not the largest, in
history.
SO great is the crop that picking
is carried on by moonlight. The
bright southern moon in the fall of
the year turns the night into day
and picking is greatly facilitated be-
cause of the absence of the heat of
the day. Pickers are paid by piece
work, and all the negroes physically
able go into the fields in the early
morning and remain at work until
late at night, or until the moon is
obscured.
This tremendous picking is crowd
ing the ginneries, which are working
night and day, yet despite this much
Of the cotton cannot be handled, the
holdover being stored in the seed.
Many estimates are made as to the
Texas crop, the total averaging
around 100000 bales. 1t is believ-
ed it will take $225, 100000 to f.
nance the Texas crop.

Every time gun is fired which
brings down an owl, a hawk, a crow,
crane, heron, bittern or shrike the
farmer loses a friend; and a note of
welcome is sounded for the ever-in-
oreasing army of field mice-an army
which now counts it's numbers in bill
lions, and which yearly levies upon
the farmers of the United States
a tax greater than the pension roll,
as great as the cost of the Panama
canal. For these birds are the nat
ural enemies Of the mice-they are
the foremost of the agencies with
which nature has proposed to keep
the multiplication of these predatory
rodents within bounds.
Almost as inviting to the mice is
the welcome sounded whenever the
gun brings down a fox, a weasel,
mink, skunk, raccoon, coyote, lynx,
badger or shew. Except for an occa-
sional tribute levied on the hen-roost
something against which it is easy
to guard-all these animals are
harmless, and they find in mice their
natural food. In the same category
may be placed a great number of
harmless snakes.
If these birds and animals should
be allowed to multiply unmolested
the farmers and the nation might
soon be eased of the awful burden
now carried to support the predatory
army of mice. Lest the figures above
may fail to impress the readers i'm
agination let it be said that each
mouse actually consumes in year
thirty pounds of food such as is suit
able for a COW. Suppose this food
to consist of hay only-one of the
cheapest of feeds. We then find that
a single billion of mice, eating thirty
pounds each, will consume 5,OOO,-
600 tons. At SIP a ton the contribu-
ton of the farms to the support of
the mice would foot up $1S0,00O,00O
a year. But what of the grain, the
fruit and the garden vegetables con-
sumed? What of the costly orchards
girdled and ruined by the mice? Who
will venture to say that the destruc-
ton wrought in these will not over
balance the value of 100000 tons
Of mere hay?
Two years ago an unfortunate
orchardist found that all
the trees in his apple orchard-an
orchard which by painstaking en-
deavor had been wrought to such
degree of productivity as to be capa-
BILE of yielding $4,000 a year-had
been girdled and killed by mice work
ing under the snow. And this is
how the mice gained the numbers
