LIVES TO GATHER IN Joy
About One Month Throughout the
Years Twelve.

A good many years ago the old duke
OF Argyll came to America and
straightway was taken to Niagara
Falls to gaze on the glories Of cat
aracts and rapids. His hosts led him
to point of vantage just below the
laundering downfall. They turned to
him to get sight of his first express
sion OF awe and rapture, and found
that he had his back to the falls and
was looking wonder-eyed at an Amer
lean goldnnch pulling seeds from n
thistletop.
July is the month of the goldtinch,
although, perhaps, the bird would not
so call it. With his mate. in July he
is housekeeping. and is doing his
share of the work Of keeping hungry
children fed. For II months he leads
free life. singing every other min.
ute and getting all the Joy there is
handy.
When the duke of Argyll had looked
on the goldhnsh he said 1T Is. in
truth, n goldhnch." Few birds heve
such slight clothing to wear. The
scarlet tanager cannot boast himself
above the goldilnch in point Of raj
ment. Even the golden'rod is cnvious
when the goldtinch weaves by over
head. This July bird. when he is fly
ing, swings hammocks in the sky. He
has a weaving fight across the fields
and he sings all the way

HARD TO KILL OFF RABBITS
Growth Of the Pest In Tasmania Has
Created 4 Serious Problem
for Aoriculturlsts.

As in other states in Australia, the
problem of dealing with the rabbit
pest has been given considerable at
tention by farmers and pastoralists In
Tasmania for some time.
The matter was taken up by the
Farmers and Stockowners' association
at n recent meeting Of the council OF
that body. Among other things 1t was
stated that information had been col
lected bearing upon the trade In rab'
bit skin In this state. The figures IN
dicated that not less than 100000
skins were exported from Tasmania
each year, the value Of which was un'
der $250,000.
AS poison was also generally used
for destroying the pest. It was quite
safe 10 assume that as many more
were killed. making the death roll
equal 70 100000. Adding to that AZ
least 100000 left at the end OF each
winter to breed again, the conclusion
was arrived at that the lands OF the
state were growing every year l2oOO,.
900 rabbits.
Taking these figures as basis and
allowing Is rabbits to consume az
much grass a. one sheep. It was com
puted that the rabbit was occupying
the place Of 100000 sheep. or. In other
words. taking up about one-third O.!
the lands. for which the state received
under S250.000. as against the value
Of 100000 sheep. which would be not
less than $1,500.0O0 at low estimate.
