The bird cottage shown in Fig. 5
contains three compartments. The low
er portion may be made out of a box
of about the size used for the ark, but
better results will be obtained by build
ing the entire house. Box boards will
be good enough material. Divide the
lower story Of the cottage through the
center, as in Fig. 6, and fasten the Sec
ond story floor to the top Of the parti-
ton and side walls. Cut the root
boards Of the proper lengths and
widths to form projections at the caves
and over the front, and after mailing
them to the side walls OF the house,

canoe with regard to agricultural
production in the south. It is that
what is described as the largest peach
orchard in the world, that of the
Bayley estate of Americas, Ca, has
been cut down and burned and the
ground given to cotton raising. The
orchard contained 225,000 bearing
trees and for years has been among
the first to supply the northern mar
kets, says the Pittsburgh Dispatch.
But while there have been immense
shipments, large quantities went to
waste and the owners believe that
they can get more profit out of cotton
on the same ground.
1t has been one of the chief claims
that the south's greatest hope was in
diversifying Its agriculture and espe,
cially in raising fruits and vegetables
for northern markets. Yet 1t appears
from this that the cost of shipping is
an immense drawback for the south.

sold in the north. Yet it remains the
fact that there are few junctures
when the southern peaches cannot be
readily sold, and IL northern raisers

can sell their product at good rates.
It Is true that cotton gets far bet

voters will east their ballots for presi-

Republican electors, if successful at
the polls, will meet and elect a presi-

A PERNICIOUs AMENDMENT

One of the constitutional amend
ments to be voted for in Nevada next
Tuesday proposes to amend our funda-
mental law to provide for the recall of
all elective officers, which, of course,
includes the judiciary. While there is
no need of the recall of any elective
officer, the recall of the Judiciary is
particularly Objectionable. We would
soon find ourselves in the position of a
ship at sea without a rudder. As the
amendment provides that 25 per cent
of the voters ear recall an officer, it
would be necessary only for two or
three prominent men to agree to the
proposition, and the obtaining of the
necessary signers to the petition would
be a very easy matter. Men sign
petitions whose objects they do not be-
lieve in for a variety of reasons, the
principal one, perhaps, that they do
not care to argue the question and sign
to get rid of the party who makes the
request. So VIGOROUSLY careless are
citizens about affixing their signatures
to petitions, that it has become a gen
orally accepted adage that cit is a
mighty mean man who will refuse to
sign a petition or give away a pup"
By placing the tenure of the jude
iary at the mercy of 25 per cent of the
voters, it would be in a position where
it would be bound, in making decisions,
to cater to the ignorant and unthink-
ing if it did not wish to be subjected
to the humiliation of a recall. This
could not fail to produce undesirable
results, as the standard of our judges
and their decisions would eventually
be greatly lowered.
The law as it exists, is ample to
protect the public from dishonest off
Gals. If one becomes corrupt, he may
be prosecuted for ~malfeasance in of
flee, or impeached. And in case he
should escape conviction, and the peo-
pie still believe him to be guilty, his
tenure of office is so short that he can
do little harm, and at the next election
can be retired.
This recall idea is a ''fad,' and
should by no means be applied to the
judiciary. Try it ON other Offices first,
and if it works well, there will be time
enough to apply it to our judges. We
have got along very well since the
state constitution was adopted without
a recall, and should approach this ques-
ton with the greatest caution.
