SCOUTS KEEP OUT OF COURT.

II have never heard of any boy
scout getting into trouble and brought
before the Juvenile court" says Col.
]. e. Huchingson. boy scout executive
Of Denver.
ION the other hand. we have had
scores of boys who have been in Ju-
venile court before they became
scouts"
1t is Colonel Hutchingson's theory
that no boy is hopelessly bad, but the
bad" boy only lacks the opportunity
to express himself in the right way.
Colonel Huchingson says that the
average boy Is democratic institu-
tion, that he is for fair play and wants
to give another boy chance to make
good II there is anything against his
record. The scout troops elect their
own members and oftentimes take a
boy whom they know has record
which the school authorities can't hold
up as a shining example.

PREYS ON HARMFUL RODENTS
According to This Writer, the Owl 10
Really a Good Friend of the
Agrlcuiturist.

Superstition still clings to the owl,
due largely to ignorance and lack Of
discrimination.
When twilight falls the owl comes
forth from some remote recess where
1t has spent the day in sleep. and ut
tcring a peevfsh cry, hurrics out upon
Its foraging expedition. As the tired
farmer Is lost in refreshing sleep, this
bird. against which the hand of man
has been raised for centuries, com
mences its beneficial work which only
ceases when the first rays Of tho
morning sun come slant.ng over the
hilltops, binding It's eyes and sending
1t quickly to cover.
The great orbs Of the owl are re-
markably developed and are keenest
In the early hours of the night and
morning. when many harmful rodeLts
are most active. Marvellous, indeed, is
the sight that enables 1t to strike the
tiny mouse In the darkness.
Owls are the natural check upon
this multitude. and thus are of ines
Unable value to agriculture. From
an economic standpoint. It would be-
hard to find more useful bird.-Los

To $1,000, 600 In VOlstead Law
Expenses Are Piling Up.

The cost of making the United
States "dry'' will be much heavier
than Congress anticipated when it
passed the prohibition enforcement
Law.
The Treasury Department will be
compelled to ask for nearly $4,000, 600
IN addition to the appropriation :f
81, 0OO, 900 in the Volstead act About
81, O0O,O 900 will be necessary for the
fiscal year ending June 30, 1921,
while from 100000 to 100000 will
be required to make up the deficiency
of the current fiscal year ending
June 80 next.
The prohibition machinery, it is
estimated, takes more than $3.50, 900
every month, or about 1000 a day.
This gives approximately 1000 addi-
tional employees in Washington and
in the field.
When the Volstead measure was
first up in Congress 1t authorized a
total of $3,500,000 for enforcement,
but this was finally cut in conference
to $2,O00,000. AS it did not bee ome
effective until October %, this sun
was all available for the eight re-
naming months of the fiscal year,

If rats are a menace to the far

the coming winter. The corn crop
is an enormous one, surprising the
greatest expectations. Many farmers
have their cribs full, have built ex-
ira cribs, and yet are at loss to
know where to store the valuable

is stored in outbuildings, giving the
rats an excellent chance to eat, grow
