THE VILLAGE BLACKSMITH

Under the spreading chestnut tree
 The village smithy stands; The smith, mighty man is he
 With large and sinewy hands: And the muscles of his brawny arms Are strong iron bands. His hair is crisp. and black and long, His face is like the tan: His brow is wet with honest sweat,
 He earns whateeT he can; And looks the whole world in the face, For he owes not any Week in, week out. from morn till night You can hear his bellows blow: You can hear him swing his heavy sledge, With measured beat and slow Like a sexton ringing the village bell
 When the evening sun is low. And children coming home from school Look in at the open door; / They love to see the flaming forge.
 And hear the bellows roar, And catch the burning sparks that fly Like chaff from threShinS floor. He goes Sunday to the church,
 And sits among his boys: He hears the parsOn pray and preach,
 He hears his daughters voice Singing in the village choir,
 And it makes his heart rejoice. It sounds to him like her mothers voice. Singing in Paradise He needs must think of her once more, How in the grave she lies; And with his hard rough hand he wipes A tear out of his eyes. Toiling-rejoicing-
 Onward through life he goes; Each morning sees some task begun,
 Each evening sees it's close; Something attempted, something done,
 Has earned nights repose. Thanks thanks to thee. my worthy friend, For the lesson thou hast taught Thus at the flaming forge of Life
 Our fortunes must be wrought; Thus on it's sounding anvil shaped
 Each burning deed and thought.
 Henry Wadsworth Longfellow.

Democrats complain of the criti-
cisms that have been directed at the
president The fact remains that the
president refused to act in dealing
with Mexico, Germany or Great Brit
ain until forced into it by the volley

achievements for which Democrats
applaud the president were wrung
from him by an indignant people.

How Richmond has grown in the

Of his city and wants to boost 1t to cut

SO that he will be ready for any argu-
meut concerning it's development.

the growth that has taken place. but
ii has exceeded even his optimistic an
ticipatlons, with the contemplated
provement which the Chamber Of
Commerce is working on Mr.. Dabney
predicts that the advance in the next
five years will be rejoubled. Said Mr..

PRESERVE THE BIRDS.

The present bird population is much
less than it ought to be. according TO
the biologists. Every farmer should
give birds more protection and en-
cotragement, for every increase ia
their numbers means a corresponding
decrease III the number of insect
pests.
While one usually thinks OF the OBJ
jectional English species when the
word sparrow" is mentioned, there
are some forty species of sparrow in
North America which are helpful
rather,than harmful and should be en-
couraged rather than discouraged.
The complaints against tho robin
have dwelt on his fondness for cher
ries, Strawberries. biackberries. rasp-
berries, pears. peaches, prunes, GRAPES
and even olives in California me
bluebird's consumption of cultivated
fruits seems more limited, being prac-
tically confined to cherries, raspber-
ries and hlackberries, and its fruit
eating period is very short, being only
from late fall 10 early spring when
the insects which 1t prefers are
scarce.
4 government bulletin contains
list of ornamental plants bearing ber-
ries which. it is suggested. might be
planted in regions where the robin
and bluebird are occasionally com
PEELED to feed on cultivated yaritles OF
fruit and berries
In olive regions. for instance. if
robin can find such berries as mad
roma, hetermeles and cascara he Will
prefer them to the cultivated fruits
valued by man. Mistletoe and elder
berries are among the vartties recon-
mended for the bluebird In particular,
Dogwood, pepper berries. china ber-
ries and hackberrtes are popular with
the robin and in the North cedar. srni-
lax and holly give them both food and
shelter. The best time OF year Tor
transplanting woody plants Is late fail
or winter.
The United States Department OF
Agriculture's biologist advises farmers
by all means to encourage the ROBIN
and the bIuebird, considering tna1
they will more than compensate Tor
occasional depredat!ons by the assist
ance rendered in killing undesirable
insects, and that they can be pretty
efrectually kept from eating valuable
fruits IL they are provided with q sup
ply of wild ones for winter diet when
insect food is scarce. ---Washington
