Cultivation OF Hedges and Fences
Along Railroads Right OF Way
Is Of ReslsPracticai Value.

A number OF railroad companies
have alreadysmade considerable effort
to beautify their rights of way ana
station grounds. In some places the
roads are paralleled for many miles
by hedges, and the land on either side
of the tracks is covered by beautiful
turf. About the stations, hedges, shrub
berry, and flower beds are common. II
this planting could be aimed In part,
at least, toward attracting birds 1t
would lie very effective mad great good
would be done. If the clumps OF
shrubs were formed OF kinds furnish
Ing bird food, If more Of them were
placed along the rights Of way, II the
hedges were allowed to bear fruit, and
If the fence poles or possibly even
some Of the telegraph poles bore bird
houses, thousands Of birds could live
where very few do now. =. f a .ys-...&
The suggestions made are by no
means without practical value to the
right of way itself. For instance, sup
plying bird boxes Is the best method
of preventing damage to poles by
woodpeckers, which come anyway I'M
der present conditions and make their
own homes. Hedges or fences densely
covered with vines would decrease, II
not entirely obviate, expenditures for
the movable snow fences now extern
sively used. 2~& 1s,,ss@2zE

How Town People Aid Farmers.

How the little town Of Delhi, stu
ated in the Catskill mountains in New
York state, is aiding farmers in the
surrounding community in securing
much-needed labor is told by a repre-
sentative of the United States depart
ment of agriculture, who has recently
returned from an inspection trip in
that district. The local commercial
club Of Delhi has organized some Of
the business men OF the town who are
willing to do farm work aftel three
o'clock. The farmer who needs help
telephones to the club, and at three
o'clock the volunteer workers CLIMB
into automobiles and report to hif
farm for a half days work. About 35
business men are being placed every
day on the farms around Delhi. The
local minister has set the example. He
sper Is one day helping each of the
farmers in his congregation.

Flanders.

The Flemish form of the name
Flanders is Vlaenderen and the WORD
means the country of the Flemish
The Flanders of the middle ages was
a self-governing countship, that is,
country whose ruler was a count, hui
at times it was under the suzerainty OF
France, apd sometimes under that OF
the empire which then included the
Germanic states. The Flanders of the
middle ages is today divided between
France and Belgium, the greater part
being included in Belgium, and two
provinces in the western part OF the
latter country are known as East and
West Flanders, the latter fronting on
the North sea. Practically all the
country that formed the Flanders OF
the middle ages is low and level
hence it was commonly called the
Low Country Ypres and the British
lines out to the North sea and south
for considerable distance into north
ern France, are in country that
formed part of old Flanders.
