Farmers Grievance Was That Story

A story is being told at the expense
Of an old English farmer who was
recently called upon to explain why
he had failed to take out license for
a favorite fox terrier dog. "'Es mob

But how old Is he?" "Oh. weel.

tanned that the animal in question
was a very, very old.fashioned puppy.
and the magistrate inflicted the usual
fine. Shortly afterward the farmer
was met by a friend who wanted to
know how he had Jared at the police
court. "Nobbut middlin'." was the re-
ply. did they fne youl" YES" re-
sponded the victim; "an' 'ang me II |

Destroy Crops.

A number Of years ago blackbirds
were exceedingly abundant through
eastern Nebraska They were so plen'
tiful that the farmers believed they
we're damaging crops. 80 they began
poisoning the birds. A single grain OF
corn soaked In strychnine was enough
to kill blackbird In the years that
followed. grtat numbers Of these and
other birds were destroyed during the
spring and fall. At the same time
thousands Of quail. prairie chickens
and other game birds were killed In
every county to supply the market
A. the birds began to disappear.
swarms Of locusts took their place.
These insects hatched out In countless
