WISE LITTLE WREN.


1t a certain home IN this city
yesterday q strange discovery was
made which. shows what cunning
some birds possess. Members or
the family for the last few days
had heard the song OF the wren
each morning at breakfast, and It
seemed 50 close that 1t was thought
the wren must be Just outside the
back door, but as the back porch
was securely screened off except
for a small space OF two or three
inches at the bottom 1t did not
seem possible that the bird could
be there.
Yesterday, however, the little
wren was seen hopping along on
the porch. 1t would dart under the
opening at the base OF the wood.
work, fly away and In a few minutes
come back with as much material
for building a nest as It could
carry.
Investigation, while the littls
bird was on a trip for home build
ing material revealed that a nest
was Just about completed in a lit
tie round basket that was hanging
on a nail Just outside the kitchen
door and less than six feet from
the floor.
When prospecting for a home a
few days ago, the wren. In some
manner must have gained entrance
to the porch. A hasty survey OF
the situation brought a verdict n
the little birds mind that the has
ket hanging on the porch would
make an ideal home. 1t would be
sheltered from the winds and rain

When mother wren has Matched
out her young, yet sweeter songs
will owners OF the house hear as
she sings to her babies.

NOTHING LIKE IT IN WEST VIRGINIA

HERE is a certain SKINNED Milk Bill
i which Is being pushed at state legislatures
and causing more or less discussion wherever II
appears. This bill which is known as the Ferris
SKINNED Milk Bill has been adopted by the state
legislature Of Wisconsin and is now being argued
before the supreme court Of that state as to its con-
stitutionality. The, bill has also been skilfully slid
through the New York legislature and is ready for
the governors signature unless suddenly awakened
antagonism will serve to make him veto It.
The bill is claimed to be one favored by agricul.
turists and is a measure aimed to eliminate so far
as possible the sale of dried or powdered milk, a
product which has been widely introduced during
the past two years and which has been found to be
perfectly satisfactory for table and cooking pur-
poses.
The Ferris skimmed Milk Bill would prevent
the sale Of skinned milk compounds, admittedly
wholesome and nutritious food, except in ten pound
packages. AS the dried milk is light In weight ten
pounds Of it would over stock a home pantry, and
the field for the, sale Of the product is practically
confined by such legislation to bakeries, contec-
TONERS and others using large quantities of milk
daily. The bill Is one inspired by the dairymen Of
the country who see in the>new dried milk process
a threat to their business, and who would thus sell

The Ford Motor Company does not
sound a blare of trumpets when
changes and improvements are made
Rut. 1t would be easier to list the I'M
changed parts, rather than the parts
that have been changed, strengthened
and improved in the last few years.
The so-called pnchanging Ford is
one of the most steadily changing and
improving OF all cars. Such parts of
the Ford car as the connecting rods
and pistons, have recently been light
ened and improved, thus giving a
smoother running and a faster and
more powerful engine. AS these are
moving" parts "a pound reduction in
the weight OF the pistons is equivalent
to n reduction OF many pounds of
weight in the chassis. And it has
beer proven that the new and lighter
pistons and connecting rods will make
. Ford engine run from 8 to 5 miles
an hour faster, an dwill give smoother
running at all speeds.
When one hears Of good" Ford it
is generally safe to assume that a
good" driver is not far away. One
of the reasons why so many OF the
older Fords gave such fine service
was that their drivers took an intelli-
gent interest in driving their cars.
They secured greater power and speed
by careful manipulation OF spark and
throttle levers-as compared with
some owners of new Fords who drive
their Fords like wheel barrows.
