SPARE lNsECT-EATING BIRDS
Drastic Measures Must Be Taken to
Save Quail, Grouse and Pheasants
From Complete AnnihiIation.

"The time has come when every
sportsman should put away his gun
for five years at least" said Col. G. o.
Shields during a recent lecture upon
Birds and Animals of America"
Colonel Shields argued that drastic
measures must be put into effect II
quail, grouse, pheasants, and prairie
chickens are to be saved from ex-
tinction. The humiliation of these
birds, he said, would mean untold pow
erty resulting from the scarcity of
crops which would be. eaten by in
sects.
Ninety per cent of the normal bird
life of this country already has been
destroyed and the other 10 per cent
will go in the next five years unless
strong measures are employed to stop
the slaughter" he said Careful
scientists tellus that If all the insect
eating birds were destroyed the whole
continent would, within three years,
become uninhabitable by reason of the
myriads of insects that would spring
up and devour every living thing"

History of the War.

when the history of this war
comes to be written" is a constantly
recurring journalistic phrase, as IL the
story of this great conflict could ever
be written. You may be fairly certain
that no one under the rank of an
archangel, in close touch with omnis-
cience, will ever write the full his
tory of the world war Down below
there isn't the knowledge, and there
isn't the time. There will come sec
tional accounts. But II in the fullness
of time a world syndicate succeeds in
getting some million tons of print
within covers, the public will Zone
hopes) be thinking of something else.
Yet the literature Of the war as
personal drama is the domain of the
private soldier, and the best letters
from the front have been written by
the private soldier On that side Of
the literature of war the editor of the
Book Monthly has his eye. He Is a
specialist on the "Epistles of Atkins"
and already he has been gloating and
cleaning with some thousands of SOL
diers letters before him.-London

ONE OBJECT IN CULTIVATION
1t Best Conserves Moisture and Lib.
crates Plant Food, Conditions
Making Good Growth.

The main object in the cultivation
of young orchard is to secure the
fastest, thriftiest possible growth Of
the trees without unduly endangering
them from disease attacks, or from
winter killing occasioned by going in
to the winter in an immature condi-
ton Continuous cultivation through
out the growing season best conserves
moisture and libeyates plant food
These conditions make for a splendid
growth in young trees. A good supply
of humus should be kept in the soil
of a young orchard at all times, by
dressing with stable manure or grow
ing and working in green manure
crops.
The best tool for working a young
orchard is an extension reversible
disk of the ordinary or the cutaway
type. This allows working up close
to and under low-headed trees, with
out injury to their trunks. A spring
tooth harrow may take the place OF
the disk, but cannot be gotten so close
to the trees without injury to them.
Harrow as free as possible from
projecting parts, and short singletrees
should always be used in orchard Gull

under dramatic circumstances man
who had just placed two bombs in St.

months of work by detectives in un-
covering a conspiracy. which, they de-
clare, projected The opening of cam
paign of violence and bloodshed with

1t was part of the plot, the police
assert, for gangs of men armed with
rifles and revolvers to appear stimuli
taneously IN various parts of the city
to shoot and to pillage; the biggest
banks of New York city were to be
blown up. and many wealthy men were
to be slain.
Frank Abarno was the name given

the cathedral. Later Charles Carbone,
an 1S-year-old youth, was arrested at
his home as the actual manufacturer
of the explosives.

If HAIR is TURNING

Grandmother kept her hair beauti-

Whenever her hair fell out or took on
that dull, faded or streaked appear
ance, this simple mixture was applied
with wonderful effect. BY asking at
any drug store for "Wyeth's Sage and
Sulphur Hair Remedy" you will get
large bottle of this old-time recipe,
ready to use, for about 80 cents. This
simple mixture can be depended upon
to restore natural color and beauty
to the hair and is splendid for dan
druff, dry, itchy scalp and falling hair.
A well-known druggist says every
body uses Wyeth's Sage and Sulphur.
because it darkens SO naturally and
evenly that nobod:' can tell it has been
applied-its SO easy to use, too. You
simply dampen a comb or soft brush
and draw it through your hair, taking
one strand at q time. By morning
the gray hair disappears; after an
other application or two, 1t is re-
stored to its natural color and looks
glossy, soft and abundant. Adv.
