THESE LITTLE HOMES WILL BRING THE BIRDS TO YOUF


Of house. and I have seen a capital
wren house made out of an old grape
basket (Figure p. But almost any
form of bird house will do for the
wren, providing the entrance hole is
not more than seven-eighths of an
inch in diameter.
A hole any larger will permit the
entrance of English sparrows and
with these rowdies about, none of
the better class of American birds
will stay.
Don't Need a Perch
1t is best not to have perch be-
fore the door Of the wren house. The
wren doesn't need it, and if one is
there the sparrows are liable to sit
on the perch and plague the nest
ing mother bird inside, or fight off
the male bird, 50 that the wren fam
lily will soon become discouraged
and quit the house.
A very desirable bird to induce to
live in the yard is the purple mar
tin. These birds delight to live in
colonies and a capital colony can be
made out Of an old nail key parti-
toned off inside and an entrance hole
drilled to each apartment Figure

ance. The barrel colony house
should be elevated on pole as high
off the ground as possible.
Some other simple bird houses
are shown above.
Here are some don'ts for bird
builders. Don't paint a bird
house; paint is not found on nat
ural house. Don't use tin or tar pa
per for roofing, or sidewalks; it draws
the heat and the birds do not like
hot houses.

K|DNAP|N INC CHARGE
AGAINST FARMERS.

QUITMAN, Ga, May 2S.-Quitman
and Brooks county are very much in
terested in the outcome of the trial
Of Frank Bell. ]. i. Williams, Otis
Beatty and ]. l.. Joyner, all success
full and prominent farmers of Brooks
county, for alleged kidnapping.
All four of these men were indicted
by the grand jury of Jefferson coun-
ty, Florida, at Monticello. and this
is the first case of the kind to come
up in south Georgia.
IS 1t is said that on Wednesday Sher-
iff Altman and Deputy Sheriff Gold
berg, of Jefferson county, came to
Quitman with warrants, and together
with Sheriff Clanton, arrested the
men and took them to Monticello,
where Quitman parties. who accom-
panied the prisoners, made bond tor
them in the sum of $4,000. The trial
will be held at the next term of the
Jefferson county court.
The facts behind the indictments
and arrests, as stated by the Jetfer-
son county officers, are as follows:
A negro farm hand working for
Mr.. Bell is said to have left him
owing him several hundred dollars.
According to their statement, Mr..
Bell, accompanied by Mr.. Williams,
Mr.. Beatty and Mr.. Joyner. traced the
negro to jefferson county, where he
broughts the negro back to Brooks
county, it is said. It is also charged
that the white man for whom the ne
gro worked in Florida took out the
warrants for the Brooks county men,
gave them to the sheriff to serve, and
that the sheriff burned out bearing
in his car in pursuit of the men as
they drove back to Brooks county
with the negro, failing on this ac-
count to overtake them.
AT the last term of the Jefferson
county court, true bills were return
ed against the Brooks county men,
charging them with kidnapping. The
Brooks county men claim that the
