Will Eat Out of Your Hand.

The chickadee will eat out of your
hand if you show him that you have
something good to eat, and he is not
already pretty we'll satisfied, for he is
a sociable, fearless and responsive
little fellow, says the American For
estry association, Washing ton, which
is conducting the national bird-house
building contest that school children
are entering into with great interest
and enthusiasm.
Another thing is that if you
whistle to the chickadee, he will in
variably respond, which is more than
can be said of most other birds. The
chickadee braves the winter cold and
remains even when the snow makes
it hard for him to find much food
The top and back of his head is jet
black, and there is big black spot
also on his throat, while the rest of
the bird is shaded from white to gray
and buffiSh.

now, Buster" Williamson will take
the position behind the bat and re-
ceive the fancy ones from Lefty"
Burke or Line" Adams. Another
bit of promising material has been
discovered in Charlie Daley, who
will slide a few pretty ones into

the Dartmouth freshmen in 1916,
and since then has been playing
semi-professional ball at Gloucester,
Mass.

his leg it is doubtful if he will be

There will be practice every day at

still an opportunity for the rest of
the boys to come out and give these
men a run for their positions. From
such work outs some promising ma

Bird Builds Several Nests

Some birds get very nervous and be-
come much excited if you approach
their nests. and among them is the
black -throated green warbler says the
American Forestry association, of
Washington, which is conducting the
national bird-house building contest
for school children. Another thing
about this bird is that it frequently
builds several nests. Whether this is
because it changed it's mind after
building the first one and decided to
select better location or with the de-
liberate purpose of deceiving any in
truders who might come along is not
known
The bird is very beautifully colored,
the top of it's head and the region
nearly down to the shoulders being a
yellow green, the back olive green, the
throat and breast jet black and the
under parts white with some yellow in

were first worn. and there is no rec

hat was made. The first modern hat,
as we know this article of mems wear,

his summary, 797 speak of their ex-

great satisfaction, as if life on the
farm was great joy and full of hap
piness.
That the letters are representative
of the 10000 farms in the state is
shown by the fact that $50 of them
came from the 19 counties of north
eastern Minnesota; ISL from 10
counties in northwestern Minnesota
219 from the southeastern section,
and 225 from southwestern Mime

of farms-dairy, grain, mixed, poul-

Stubborn Facts Speak
Well for Themselves
Campaign Ballyhooing Will Not Di-
vert Public Mind From the Issues
of the Campaign

Thinking people will not allow the
results of an election to hinge upon
irresponsible talk and personal
charges and quips. The state and
national governments are big concerns
charged with the transaction of the
public's business, reaching out and
expanding as the popular demand for
increased service grows. To go ahead
of this demand means extravaganza
and waste; to remain behind it is to
suffer the decay and stunting influ-
ence of inaction and lack of enter
prise.
There are certain constructive
measures that mean much to the fu-
ture growth and prosperity of the
country. One of these is the devel-
opment of the international water
way via the st. Lawrence river that
will make every port of the Great
Lakes a harbor for ocean-going YES
sells from all parts of the world.
The accomplishment of this great
enterprise would mean more to the
people of the Northwest, and especial
ly to the state of Minnesota, than
any other undertaking that has or is
being proposed for the permanent adj
vantage of the state and its tributary
country. 1t would put the producers
in direct touch with the markets that
consume their surplus and are such a
factor in fixing their value.
The savings effected by the COM
pletion of this great canal would be
permanent and amount at the outset
to an enormous sum annually, in
creasing progressively with the great
growth in commerce which it would
stimulate. All this money would re-
main in the hands of the actual pro-
ducer to swell his income and be
continuous and indestructible asset.
This is pure business proposition, a
vital business proposition, an extern
sion of its facilities which is needed
by state industry that its future
growth may be properly nurtured.
Governor Preus brought this pro-
ject before the country conspiciously
in the fall of 1921 by calling the in
ternational waterways congress
which held its sessions at the state
capitol, and he has done more than
any other individual to interest peo-
pie of influence in official circles at
Washington to espouse the cause to
the extent that it has became an
avowed policy of the present admins
tration. Is he to receive no credit
for this constructive work when the

WHAT MINNESOTA FARM
WOMEN ARE THINKING

A bulletin designed to show what
farm women in Minnesota think
about farm life, based upon letters
received from 892 Minnesota farm
women, and prepared by G. A. Lund-
quist of the University department of
sociology, has been issued by the
University Department of Agricul-
ture. Of the 892 women writing, 800
say that farm life offers an oppor-
tunity to crafty the many and in
sistent wants of life-wants which
are capable of indefinite expansion.
The letters referred to were sent
to the editor to The Farmers Wife, in
answer to questions put to the farm
