TROUBLES OF sCREEcH OWLS.


The pair of screech owls that have
made their home in the soft maple by
II. n. Shaw's house for fifteen years
or more, have another lot Of young
ones. How many are in this bunch
we do not know but there were five
in last years The young owls are
flying around now and as soon as they
leave the home tree they are beset by
all the robins and catbirds and black
birds that have nests in the vicinity.
The birds make it hot for the young
owls and also make sleep in the neigh
borhood impossible if the owls do not
get back home by daylight. The fear
which the birds have of the owls shows
that the screech owl. which is held up
as a great friend Of man because he>
feeds on mice. also feeds on young
birds.

underdresses were so short, and mar

With these costumes velvet forage

rather like inverted jam pots, looked
quite the right thing. We have to
look for a change of outline where
our hats are concerned since the out

Reboux' beautiful show-rooms in the

elegant styles. She has never gone in

like the birettas worn by priests, only
that they are very low. These quaint

stick out at the back in an aggres-
sive way. When these toques are cor
rectly worn, pressed down over the
hair, they are immensely smart; they
look particularly we'll with the new
short, full skirts and sack Coates.
The Reboux toque sketched was
composed of ravens wing-blue velvet
and trimmed with a trail OF mixed
flowers. Some of the blossoms we're

we're in oxidized silver and gold

WAR TRENCH TRAINS
BEING MADE IN u. S.
Miniature Railroad to Garry Ammunition
Into the Defences in France.


Miniature railroad trains that will
carry ammunition right into the French
and British trenches are now under
construction in this country and in
Canada.
More than one hundred of such trains
TO run on narrow guage tracks, will be
ready for shipment within a short time
The little locomotives are being built in
the Baldwin ACKNOWLEDGEMENTS in Phil
adelphia; the miniature tracks in the
Lorain Steel Works. Johnstown, Pa,
and the tiny cars in a boundary located
in Canada.
These trains, which will be run on a
track two feet in width, are expected TO
be of great benefit to the Allies in their
trench warfare. They will be SO small
that they can run in tunnels near the
firing line, unseen by the enemy, right
into the trenches.
They viii be many times more useful
than automobiles that cannot go near
the trenches and that cannot do as eff
cient service by night as by day. The
miniature trains are expected to be of
cate trench lines around the wedge
which the Germans have driven into
St. Mihiel. There the French have es-
tablished especially effective trench de-
fences, connected by roads, and the
trains will haul ammunition and other
supplies to the soldiers.
The entire equipment is unusual.
Every part of the order is being built
with greater care than is given to the
regular steel equipment,as more pains
taking work is rquired. The locomo-
tives are being constructed along he
same lines as standard locomotives.
Because of the reduced size, however,
every part of the engine requires
nicely in finish than attends the big
locomotives
The making of the small rails neces-
states equal care. All the various
switches and connecting tracks have
been worked out with great exactness
by experts. Likewise the cars are be-
/ ing built with a view to carrying am
munition, shrapnel, hand grenades and
arms. French army experts have been
| in this country for several weeks SUI
perintending the putting on of the fin
ishing touches and making certain
that no detail is overlooked that will
insure the success of the plan.
The fact that the miniature trains
have been ordered is taken to NEAR
that the French and the British are
planning more extensive operations
along the western battle front in the
European conflict

XIX Xix Liquid Bacteria Culture.
Much has been said and written
about alfalfa, yet a few additional re-
marks will not be amiss. AMI as a
general statement it is safe to say that
the requisites for the successful grow
ing of Alfalfa are, first, well drained
Alkalin soil, a proper seed beed, a
strong terminating seed, and the prop
er Bacteria in the soil that makes it
possible for the Alfalfa to use the
Nitrogen of the Air. The Alkaline
soil is produced by the addition of
Lime in its cheapest form, all lines
being good but differing in their de-
grees of goodness. The proper seed
bed is produced of the intelligent use
of the farm tools. The seed bought
from a reliable seed house and is tested
for termination and purity by the
State agent at the Experiment station,
which will require about 10 days and
is done free. The liquid Bacteria
Culture to use on the seed before
planting sufficient for 2 acres can be
had through your local County Agent,
it keeping free though 8 record of the
crop is asked to be kept. Or if you
wish to use the Earth Innoculation
your agent will tell you where to get
that and recommends that the double
innoculation be used.A chance is taken
when any Of the above are omitted
and while crop sometimes results,
the best and safest plan is to follow the
above outline exactly and your success
is practically assured.
Mr.. Whteford is compiling list Of
the wishing to Culture put out by the
U. S. Government and asks that those
who wish this TO give him their names
and the probable date they will re-
quire it 50 he can send the order in,
this culture can be kept two weeks
before il il used.
