should be placed over the clay founda-
tion. Above this layer of manure 5
or inches deep should be distributed,
and If raw rock phosphate is available,
from 80 to so pounds should be scat
tered broadcast over the manure. Then
another layer of manure should be
added and the process continued. It Is
essential to keep the pile Of refuse
moist by sprinkling it frequently. It
is also necessary to keep the compost
heap well packed and tramped. Ordi-
narily it takes about a year for the
stable refuse in a compost heap to rot
sufficiently for use, when it should be
spread on the land in the late fall.
Manure Thoroughly Rotted.
The fundamental value of the COM
post pile comes from the fact that the
manure is thoroughly rotted and it's
plant food content is in excellent con-
dition for immediate soil use when ap-
piled to the fields, while during it's
period of decomposition it is main
tanned in excellent condition to resist
teaching and weathering.

Scouts Keep the Law.

Every now and then some judge or
Juvenile court worker bears testi-
mony that scouting keeps boys out of
mischief, that scouts keep the law and
are good citizens in embryo. Recently
q. e. Harmen, an attorney of Tacoma,
Wash, made the following statement:
"Of all the boys passing through the
Juvenile court in the last year, not one
was an active scout" There are 700
boys affiliated with the Tacoma coun-
ell. so this statement really means
something. Not one boy who came up
as a case before the court was an ac-
tive scout, and upon investigation it
was shown that in only two cases were
the offenders boys who had had any
connection whatever at any time with
scouting.-James e. West, in Boys
Life.

BIRD HUNTERS CLEVER TRICK
Natives of Northern Nigeria Assume
Resemblance of the Quarry They
Are Seeking.

Someone may have called you "a
bird" with explanatory accents OF ad-
miration, but have you ever tried to
act like bird or to appear like
bird to attract a real bird? OF course
you haven't, for this isn't the way we
IN this country go hunting, even though
we may be the most ardent OF sports
men. 1t is, however, one bird-huntlng
method in Africa, writes Temple Man
ming in the ST. Louis Republic.
A recent illustration shows how
dusky beau sets out to faScinate one
OF the feathered natives of the WOODS
and plains of northern Nigeria. 1t was
In Bassa, to be exact, where the pno-
tograph from which the picture is
drawn was snapped. And the person
who was caught in the very act OF en-
ticing bird belongs to the tribe whlcn
goes by the name of Munshi.
Industrious and very good tillers OF
the soil as they are, the Munshls are
said to be quarrelsome and great
Lovers of alcohol, which they sometimes
contrive to smuggle in and to drink
with vast speed. 1t may be, indeed,
that this Munshi hoped to catch his
bird for the drink it would bring. AT
any rate, he was most serious as ne
went about his bird-acting.
Clad in a straw shirt to give the
effect of the scene in which he moved
the hunter held the artificial Dlrds
head close to his own and began to
stalk his quarry. To human eyes view
ing him from a distance he looked
more like strange caricaturc OF an
ostrich than anything else. 10 0lro
eyes perhaps he appeared like a scene
from the surrounding country-that ls'
bird teetering on coal-black branch,
swaying above a field Of grain that
moved in the wind.
1t seems odd that so simple an ex-
pedient should be so successful. 1t IS
true that the hunters sometimes return
empty-handed, but more often they
come back laden with the birds they
set forth to get. In this country ana
in these days, when hunters sometimes
seem almost as numerous as the hunt
ed it would be exceedingly dangerous
to appear like the quarry, for a bullet
most certainly would be the reward.
But in Nigeria the method is success
although it requires much practice to
initiate bird well enough to deceive
the birds themselves.

E. 1. Harris of Rock Island. Ill.

In a more concentrated form. The

THIN PEOPLE
SHOULD take
y PHOSPHATE
Nothing Like Plain Bitro-Phosphate to Put on
Firm, Healthy Flesh and TO Increase
Strength, vigor and Nerve
Force

Judging from the countless preparations and
treatments which are continually being adver-
tised for the purpose Of making thin people
feshy developing arms, neck and bust and
replacing ugly holows and angles by the soft,
curved lines Of health and beauty, there are
evidently thousands Of men and women who
keenly feel their excessive thinness.
Thinness and weakness are often due TO
starved nerves. Our bodies need NOR phos-
phate than is contained in modern foods.
Physicians claim there is nothing that will
supply this deficiency so well as the organic
phosphate known among druggists as bitro-
phosphate, which is inexpensive and is sold by
Z. A. Drown & Co. Barre and most all
druggists under a guarantee OF satisfaction
or money back. By feeding the nerves di-
rectly and by supplying the body cells with
the necessary phosphoric food elements. bitro-
phosphate should produce a welcome trans
formation in the appearance the increase in
weight frequently being astonishing.
Increase in weight also carries with II
general improvement in the health. Nervous
ness, sleeplessness and lack of energy, which
nearly always accompany excessive thinness,
should soon disappear, dull eyes ought TO
brighten and pale cheeks glow with the bloom
of perfect health.
CAUTION: ~ Although bitro-phosphate is
unsurpassed for relieving nervousness, sleep
nessness and general weakness. 1t should not,
owing to its tendency TO increase weight be
used by anyone who does not desire to put on
hesh.-Adv.
