Women In the Field of Labor.

If by chance q woman does NOT be-
come a homemaker, but enters a busi-
ness pursuit, she meets unusual dill
Guilty. The man has been IN business
for generations; the woman is new
conner. Some employments are closed
to her, either because they require tho
great physical strength or endurance,
or because conventional considerations
forbid. Americans looh, with disap-
proval upon women working In the
fields, as they do in foreign countries; /;
and vet there Is much field work that
is more interesting, more whesssoES
and much more suitable than s6me
of the work that American women are
allowed to do-such, for example. as
they do in laundries and in ia .tories.
Not only are women considered as
invaders In mems fields, but also they
suffer because men, invading fields
once considered strictly feminine, are
becoming dressmakers, cooks, laundry
managers and clerks. Moreover, for
the same work women received lower
pay than men. Do not those difficult
ties constitute a compelling appeal to
give women in their schooling every
possible equipment for success p

Welcome the Birds.

Are all the beautiful birdhouses that
were made last winter now In place
and occupied? Let us give glad
welcome to all the birds that can be
induced to live near us. Not everyone
realizes the benefit these little crea-
lures confer. The work they do In
preserving our crops and fruit from
the ravages of insects needs to be
told again and again. Besides this
great use, the happiness they give us
with their songs and their beauty LIS
not to be told or measured. Many a

and bathe in? II not, put one there,

WHERE TARLET0N IS BURIED
American Tourist Discovers Tomb Of
Dashlng officer Who Won Fame
In Revolution.

What became of Major Tarleton aft
er the Battle of Yorktown? Except
for a very few people, says A. g.
Bradley in the Nation, everyone in
England has forgotten the very name
of the young cavalry leader. But many
persons in America must have won

der, and how 1t happened that In the
long years Of war that shook England
and Europe his name never once ap-
peared-
When Mr.. Bradley, In a leisure hour,
entered the fine old fourteenth century
village church at Leintwardine, in
Herefordshire, he did not think that
the bare, unsented chapel promised
much of interest; indeed, he was just
turning away when in far corner and
partly concealed by ladders, buckets,
planks and other articles necessary to
the cleaning of the church, he caught
sight of lofty mural monument. The
lettering on It ran as follows:
"Near this place are deposited the
mortal remains of Sir Banastre Tarle-

the Bath, Governor Of Berwick-on-
Tweed, Colonel of the Gallant Sth
Hussars-He represented his native
town of Liverpool for seven Sessions
and closed his distinguished career in
this place Jan. 25. 1888"
In 179S Tarleton was sent to Portu-
gal, but was very soon recalled at his
own request, and with that exception
he never saw shot fired after York
town or served anywhere abroad, al
though England was constantly fight
| ing until Waterloo. He got promoted
regularly, however, for he stood well
at court and was a member of the
prince of Wales circle.
Tarleton belonged neither to the no
Ibility nor to the landed gentry. He
was the son of a Liverpool merchant,

dashing cavalry officer and the best

Artillery Expense Of Modern Army:
Corps $820,00O a Day.
Outlay In Gun Metal and Powder 10
Heavy and Vast Amount Of Ma
terial is Required for !
the Trenches. ~

When It Is remembered that there
are today under arms more than "a
100000 soldiers In the European war,
the immensity of the task of keeping
them supplied with the munitions
with which they wage war Will APP
pear. 1t has been estimated that 1t
costs approximately 800 to outfit a
soldier. OF this $25 goes for gun
and $35 for his 1000 rounds Of car.
tridges. The average life of uniform
under modern service conditions is
very short that of the ordinary rife
is six months. In all of the history
of war there never has been such
rapid exhaustion of all OF the materi-
ais with which 1t Is made, says the Ma
tional Geographic Society Bulletin.
A 75-ceptimeter gun can fire about
400 projectiles day. Each Of these.
projectiles costs approximately ~.
Counting this and the depreciation OF
the gun, which is particularly rapid,
the daily outlay for its operation
amounts to $2,700. 1t is estimated that
the 120 75-centimeter cannon In an
army corps, fred all day. cost in mu-
nitions and depreciation $500, 900. In
addition to this, each army corps has
about forty pieces of heavy artillery.
Explosives and depreciation for a SIN
gle days work for them totals $780,
600, making the total artillery expense
of an army corps $S20,000 day.
If the outlay in gun metal and pow
der is heavy, it is no more so than lie
outlay for materials demanded by the
present necessities of trench warfare.
An officer who has studied this phase
of the present war carefully says that
to put a trench In a state fit for occu-
patton In winter requires 1,250,0OO
running feet Of by timber, $4,000
running feet of corrugated iron, $780,,
900 sandbags weighing 1000 tons and
24,OOO standards and pickets to the
mile. In addition to this, 900 miles
of barbed wire has to be used, weigh
ing ITO tons. When one stops to re
call the hundreds of miles Of trenches
which stretch across Europe in DIFF
| ferent directions and how often sec
tions of these trenches have to be re
built, he can gain some idea of the
| tremendous amount Of material re
uuired In their outfitting.
Another picture of the vastness O.
the munitioning trade and the i'm
| mensity Of the task Of keeping th'
| armies In the field and In fighting con
| dition may be had from the statemen
| that there are now more than 1000 con
trolled munition plants In Great Brit
ain alone. OF these 10 out of 20 nev
err produced war materials before tn
war broke out. They employ nearl
5000, 900 men and nearly 100000 won
en-. The vastness of the industry Il
England is not out of proportion {

holds 70 per cent Of Frances coal an
some so per cent of its iron, Franc
has been able, by the opening up 0
new furnaces and by immense impol
tations of ore and pig metal, largei
to overcome this handicap.

Keeper Mulheron of the state prison

Grow Is omnlverous.

In order to get living In New
England during the winter the crow
has developed catholic appetite, and
persons who have made study of the
bird and its bill of fare say that the
crow Is omniverous in the broadcast
sense of the word. In pinch he will
eat anything. The principal items on
his bill of fare are beetles. spiders,
weevils, grasshoppers, moths, butter
flies, caterpillars, bees, ants, wasps.
flies, crabs, shrimps, snails, fish, toads,
frogs, young chickens, wild birds and
their eggs, carrion and all sorts Of
plants and grains, both wild and culti-
vated. Corn constitutes large pro-
portion of the grain eaten. and this
is one of the principal grievances OF
the farmer against the crow. A bird
with such catholic taste in food LIS
obviously well prepared to meet hard
times and the high cost OF living. The
crow will kill and eat small snakes.
He will eat small mammals up to thu
size of cottontail rabbit.-Hartfort
