Those Of us who are accustomed to

The action Of limestone phosphate
and hot water on an empty stomach
is wonderfully invigOrating. 1t cleans
out all the sour lamentations, gases,
waste and acidity and gives one a
splendid appetite for breakfast and
it is said to be but little while until

cheeks. A quarter pound Of limestone
phosphate will cost very little at the
drug store, but is sufficient to make
anyone who is bothered with bilious
ness, constipation, stomach trouble or

subject Of internal sanitation. Try
it and you are assured that you will

Our last issue contained refer
encc to the financial condition
koOchiching county, Mimi, finds
itself in as q result of using the
drainage law of the gopher state
to such all extent that its financ-
es, as we'll as the sWamps, are
drained. Under the law in this
state, such condition would be
practically impossible, as all the
cost Of any drainage project is
met by the land actually bene-
fitted. And the fact that land III
this part of the state increases
in value many times the cost OF
drainage is easily demonstrated
and is further supported by the
fact that the large landowners,
who give the matter the most
careful preliminary investigation
are very enthusiastic over the
work.
Under the Wisconsin law, no
drainage project can be organ
iZed and the work started until
the project has been carefully in
Vestigated by experts and found
to be feasible. If it cannot be
shown that enough land will be
drained and thus reclaimed to
make the benefits far in excess
Of the cost, the petition for es-
tablishing the drain will be de
MED. The Land being reclaimed
by drainage in this county will
be worth more when the surplus
water is taken off than high
lands adjacent and the cost of
drainage will be far less per
acre than the cost of clearing
other wild land. The greater
part of the Lands now being
drained in this county are prac-
tically free from stumps and
comparatively free of brush.
No county funds are used in
the drainage work.

BIRD OF GREAT VERSATILITY
Parrot Is the Best lmtator of Sounds
and Only Feathered Creature
Taking Food in Claws.

1t appears that it is not only in
initiating human speech that the par
rot cXces most of the birds. 1t is
alone among birds in taking food in its
claws. With these two characteris-
ties, remarks a writer in the Washing
ton Evening Star, it makes more or
less use Of that which distinguishes
humanity from the rest of the animal
kingdOm-the hand and the iarynx
The monkey uses its hands and the
elephant its trunk in feeding Various
animals have habit Of paving their
food Rodents have serViceable toes.
Still, the parrot is pre-eminent among
birds in this regard. The secretary
bird is said to attack reptiles with it's
claws, and some observers have said
that owls make partial use of their re-
markably flexible perching toe some
what more than does a hen in scratch
ing for food. However, there is no
other bird which, when presented with
piece Of food, will accept it in it's
claws.
dIfOtS 40 not, Oh course, talk, as
the word is used in their wild state
and are not known to be initiative of
neighboring sounds, nor to possess the
repertOry of the hooking bird. 1t is,
therefore, a question whether or not
their use of the claws is largely imita-
tive also. The shape of the parrots
beak would indicate that some assist
Rnce in eating has always been part
of the birds characteristics.
Like man, the parrot makes it's APP
9earance in the world naked and help
