SONG SPARROW AN OPTIMlST Cheery Bird, Permanent Resident, Asks Little fer Services, Which
 Are Valuable.

The song sparrow, cheery-voiced forerunner of spring, is the subject of an article by Miss Harriet E. Bancre q, which appears in the Ohio Arbor and Bird Day Manual, issued by the state department of public instruction for use in the schools. In telling about the song sparrow Miss Bancroft says:
 There are so many different kinds of small, sGberhued birds, which look alike, and yet are not alike, that you wonder how you are to distinguish this one from the others. Each bird has his recognition mark and song spar rows is the spot in the middle of his speckled breast; and while in color he is of the earth, earthly, and bears upon his breast a spot, you must not think that these are the outward signs of an inward blemish, because he hasn't any.
 There is great variation in the hab- it's of different sparrows with respect to migration. The tree sparrow is with us only in winter, the field spar row is a summer bird, the white crowned migrant; that is, he pays us a short visit in the spring and again in the fall, while on his way to mere re- mote regions; but song sparrow is a permanent resident in nearly ail parts of the state. He shares with us the storms as well as the sunshine of the rounded year.
 His cone-shaped bill tells you that he is seed-eating bird and the weeds yield him a plentiful supply of them He also eats slugs and worms and ground=inhabiting insects when they are to be had, and his choice of diet makes him a valuable assistant to the farmer. He helps him ill his warfare on troublesome weeds and harmful in- sects.
 Tt is not too much to say that who ever or whatever helps the farmer to grow better crops, helps the whole world along; but song sparrow's serv- ices do not stop here; his finest is that which he renders to our weary spirits when he cheers them with his song. For all the help he gives he asks nothing in return but the privilege of living out his little life unmolested
 Tt Is said that he and his mate will raise three and even four broods in a season, if the weasels, the red squir- rels, the cats, the crows, the hawks, the blaeksnakes and other ill-disposed creatures do not harry their lowly nest, which distressing occurrence Is all too frequent"

HE MADE REQUEST OF BRAIN
vaneine Scientific Study by the Action.

Announcement was made a short time ago that Dr. Leland 0. Howard, chief of the United States bureau of entomology. had declared to the Amer ican Association for the Advancement of Science that he would bequeath his brain for scientific study to a school that specializes in neurology. A num- Der of other scientists who attended the meeting expressed admiration for the doctors action and are reported to be considering similar bequests of their own brains.
 There was a British physician named Robert Peebles who created a sensation in Londen and Edinburgh several years ago by his insistent coaxing of athletes for the privilege of studying their bodies after death. He had been experimenting with the muscles and had arrived at what his associates termed fantastic notion that some sort of operation could be performed on the leg of the human runner so that his speed could be increased. Leapers and high jumpers were his hobby, and in the course of five years it was estimated that he had examined the leg muscles of near ly thousand men, making compari- sons with the running and leaping muscles of the frog, the deer, the greyhound and other animals.
 Peebles was a man of means, and after he had succeeded in inducing half dozen athletes of reputation to twill him their legs" the attention of surgeons was attracted They took the matter under consideration at one of their quarterly meetings and warned Peebles they would have him committed to a sanitarium if he con- tinued his strange pursuit. Peebles defied them and they had a commis- sion appointed. While his sanity was being tested Peebes died. In his will he bequeathed his brain to the com mission.

Now that crops are all gathered in the North and East, the annual movement of homeseekers has started toward the Southwest and Arkansas is getting it's full share. Hardly day passes but there are score or more of callers at the agricultural department in the new state capitol at Little Rock, and the visitors to person are agree ably surprised at the fine display of farm products, among which are several exhibits of corn, wheat, oats, grasses and garden stuff from
 this years harvest. The stranger invariably asks about the produc- tlon of corn and clover crops and
 when shown specimens of these substantial feed stuffs, all doubt about the productivity of Arkansas soils seems to be at once removed.

Modernizinq the Roundup.

Each year seems to give the auto- mobile new hold on life, says the Wall Street Journal. The war brought it to the forefront in a new field. The soldier of the present day seldom
 makes long forced marches like Sher- mans march to the sea. He travels by motor car As a result, the automo- bile casualty list is tremendous; tho average life of car in the battle line is estimated at 90 days. But it is not only the war zone that has lost part of it's picturesqueness through the use of the automobile. The latter has begun to rob the annual cattle round up of some Of it's thrills by replacing the horse. This year has seen the

Water for an Arnnv

One of the numberless tasks of the general staff of great army is to pro- vide water for the soldiers and the horses. The Scientific American de- scribes some of the methods em- ployed Only running water is used. In the German army the upstream water is used for drinking, and the downstream water for watering the horses and for bathing. Suitable signs notify the men which water they may safely drink and which they may use only for bathing Tn shallow or narrow streams basins are dug or small dams built, in order to form reservoirs of sufficient size Stepping stones are put down so that no one need walk through the water, and the banks are shored up with boards to keep them from crumbling into the water. Basins are dug at which to water the horses; when troughs have to be used. they are supported on posts and filled by means of pumps. If water lies at a reasonable depth from the surface-that is, not more than twenty feet-pipes are driven that, according to their size, deliver from four to twenty-five gallons of water a minute. If the water lies very near the surface, hole is dug, and a cask, the bottom of which has been knocked out, is put into the hole to hold the sides in place and to pro, tect the water from dirt. If the wa. ter lies at a greater depth, box sec tions are driven in, one on top of an other, to the required depth.

War Hits Rheumatism.

Sodium salieylate, the friend of suf- Gerers from rheumatism, is selling to- day at $2 40 a pound, while before the war it only cost 30 cents a pound, re- marks the New York World. Also, it is sold in this country only under the condition that none of it will be eX- ported.
 The reason for this, according to ths head of one of the largest chemical concerns in the city, is not because there are more cases of rheumatism in the country today than ever before, but because sodium salicylate is made from carbolic acid heretofore imported from Europe Now Europe needs all her carbolic acid to use in manufac. turing explosives.
 Horace Graves of the Oil, Drug and Paint Reporter said: Nearly all the highly developed coal tar derivatives in the United States have been used up. Picric acid, which is used in ex- plosives, costs nil over in Europe to what it would cost to manufacture here. In England they are too busy 10 manufacture it, so they have been buying from us in great quantities. We have been selling at huge prices. Last year at this time earbolic acid cost seven cents a pound. now it has gone U to 50."
