weed, barnyard grass, and smartweed,
are eaten from November to April, in
elusive, but during the rest of the
year are replaced by insects.
Briefly stated more than half of the
meadow lark's food consists of harm
full insects; its vegetable food is COM
posed either of noxious weeds or
waste grain, and the remainder is
made up of useful beetles or neutral
insects and spiders. A strong point
in the birds favor is that, although
naturally an insect eater, 1t is able
to subsist on vegetable food, and con-
sequently is not forced to migrate in
cold weather farther than is necessary
to find grounds free from snow.
The eastern meadow lark is a COM
mon and well-known bird, occurring
from the Atlantic coast to the great
plains, where it gives way to the
closely-related western species, which
extends thence westward to the Pa
cific. 1t winters from our southern
border as far north as the District Of
Columbia, southern Illinois, and &C.
casionally Iowa. The western form
winters somewhat farther north. Al
though 1t is a bird of the plains, and
finds it's most congenial haunts in the
prairies Of the West, it is at home
wherever there Is level or undulating
land covered with grass or weeds,
with plenty of water at hand.

Farmer" is a new Farmers Bulletin

partment of agriculture, which de-
scribes this and other interesting and
valuable birds.

TH0UGHTLESS FRIENDS.
They Mean Well Enough, but They Will

Most Of the annoyances Of life are
caused by friends" writes James
Montgomery Flagg in the American

your enemy tries to get you in bad.
You don't expect anything else from
him. It's his regular business. You'd
feel that he was Il pretty measly sort
Of enemy If he didn't try to pune

think and speak about him as leprous

speak about n friend that way when
he gets under your skin. He's your
friend. That's all there is to it-he did
it, and he's Il feeble minded anteater,
but he's still your friend.
"Only a dear friend would greet you
when you're feeling peculiarly gay

FOR SUCCESS WITH TURKEYS
Young Poults Should Be Penned Up
for First Week or Two-Glve
Old Ones Free Range.

There is no doubt but grown tur-
keys must have free range to make
any success with them, but l believe
that the young poults should be penned
up for the first week or SO. as the
mother turkey hen always starts out
too early in the morning. when the
dew gives the young ones a chill and
as a consequence many of the poults
are lost.
So many advocate. there's nothing
like giving the turkeys free range with
their poults." This may be entirely
all right in dry season, but the morn
ing dew and sudden rain showers are
apt to catch you any time and num-
Der in my vicinity lost over half Of
their free-range poults last year on
account Of the sudden rains and heavy
dew during the Matching season. -

MEDICINE HAT.
The Indian Chief From Whom the Ca.
madam City Was Named.

Not many persons know what was
the origin of the strange name borne
by the Canadian city that Mr.. Rud-
yard Kipling once called 1.-The city
born lucky"
The word medicine" means more to
an Indian than to us. We think of 1t as
meaning something nasty that is good
for us, but the Indian distinguishes as
good medicine" and bad medicine"
anything that he fancies will change
his fortunes for better or for worse.
Imagine that Lo Is hunting antelope
and meeting with no success. Pres
emily he finds an empty cartridge shell
or the top of a tomato tin, and shortly
afterward he gets shot at his game.
Can he doubt that the piece of tin or
the shell gave the luck? Not he. He
wears that fragment of tomato tin or
empty shell about his neck with his
other jewelry, and it is good medi-
cine"
Several years ago there was Black
foot chief who lived In the vicinity OF
Seven Persons River, where now
stands the city of Medicine Hat. He
and his tribe were fond of hunting and
of making war on their enemies, the
Crees. This chief always wore head
dress Of feathers that he called his
medicine hat" for he thought that 1t
brought him good fortune.

he last met the Crees at the place
