THE COUNTRY HOME
BY MRS. w. H. FELTON,

who had become unmanageable at
home, by continual intoXication, SO
that it had been the custom to send
them to the asylum for the insane
for safe keeping.
The need for an tnebriate asylum
has been growing ever since. The
liquor habit will unsettle the brain
time enough being given. 1t will make
desperadoes Of people who would be
quiet but for the use Of intoxicants,
but the drunken insane should have
a place to stay, separated from those
who have lost their minds by dis
ease, accident or cruel treatment.
The last legislature made a partial
investigation Of the present state
penitentiary and reported that many
insane people were herded together
with the hardened criminal. That is
all wrong. 1t is unjust to. the insane
people, and the criminals are not
safe, as to life, from irrespo, sible
persons.
If my information is correct, there
are at least 500 persons in the IN
sane asylum who were sent there as
inebriates. They belong to well-to-
do families-in some cases-who
briate asylum. Is this not true--and
is it not a shame that the regular
insane asylum should not be capable
of caring for regular insane victims,
because it is overcroWded with
drunken madmen-and is it not nor
rible that the state penitentiary is so
Waterlogged with inefficient man
agement that the insane should be
showed in and utterly disregarded
among tn victims in crime! JUST
think Of the millions of tax money
that are appropriated for these Two
state institutions and what the whole
thing amounts to in such fog OF
decentralization and Injustice?

TIPS ON TRAPPING
By Old Bill Trapper

Find out the animals that are IN
your neighborhood and then learn
the best ways to take them.
The large reliable fur houses pub
lish helpful books and information
on the different fur-bearing animals
and give modern. tested trapping
methods, which they distribute free.
Look up their advertisements and
write for copy. Also get the United
States Farmers Bulletin relating 10
fur-bearing animals.
Go carefully over the ground
where you intend to run your trap
line, look for the best places to mako
sets, and fix them accurately in your
mind.
Look for tracks, dens and fresh
signs of the animals and then chart
them on a rough map so when the
time comes you will know where to
place your traps.
Be careful not to disturb the
haunts of the fur-bearers in any
way. This inspection of your trap
ping territory will give you good
idea of how many traps you will
need for the season.
Make your outfit complete now
line UP all the information you will
need in your trapping, then when the
season opens you'll be ready to make
money.

Trapping will not start actively
till November in most states, yet
preparation should begin now for the
work ahead. Don't wait until the
season is upon you-start while you
still have several weeks to spare.
How should you prepare? First
Of all, get out your outfit and take
inventory of all your traps, guns,
smokers, stretchers and then put
them in good working condition. Be
sure you have sufficient traps, the
right kind of bait, proper stretchers.
And about bats! If you're making
your own, start right in now. Some
bats require considerable time for
preparation, and surely you won't
want to be spending time in making
bats later on when you can be far
more proftably employed at trap
ping.
Unless you have a good bait form
uia and can get all the necessary in
gradients, better buy your bats al
ready prepared: you can get good
brands Of liquid bats individually
made for each fur-bearer, and guar
anteed to be effective. You will find
the liquid bats far superior to solid
or paste bats. You will need your
bats from the beginning; get them
ready now.
Have you decided on what ami
mails you are going after this year?

Bottle of Liquor
Catches on Fire
And Burns Caft

NEW YORK-One hundred patrons
in Guffanti's restaurant, 161 West
Forty-ninth street, were forced to
find refuge in yard in the rear,
when a bottle of liquor which was
being poured into glasses by a per-
son entertaining party caught fire
from the lighted candle and ignited
napkins and curtains. In five min
utes the front of the restaurant was
ab1aze and escape by the front door
cut off.
Diners at more than a score of
tables were compelled to abandon
their seats as efforts Of walters and
kitchenmen to extinguish the blaze
proved futile. Guests were guided
through the back doors to a court
yard, where they were penned in
until firemen had controlled the
flames with chemicals. Interior
decorations of the restaurant and
most of it's furniture were destroy
ed. Much damage also was done by
fire and water in the tailoring shop
Of Lisak e. Co., above Guffantfs.

There is no grass adapted for
growth in your section of the state
that will provide as firm and dense
a sod as Bermuda grass. I realize
that it has many imperfections
and does not make the most desirable
type Of lawn because it browns sc
rapidly when cool weather comes and
it is late in starting to grow in the
spring.
Next to Bermuda grass I would
recommend blue grass. white clover
and Italian rye grass, sown in mix

grass, 5 pounds of white Clover, and
6 and pounds of Italian rye grass
