and young of our song, insecti- vorous and gams birds in Ontarloi are devoured by these cold-blooded‘ rust-robbing cannibals, the crow being tho worst of all. He will take ‘ young mounting dove; out of the! nest when they are u lsrlte as spar- rows; the quail, and kildcer, and dozens of other ‘such beautiful mothers are perfectly helpless snd| can no more keep him off than a human mother's naked hands could I keep s vicious lion from tearing her baby into fragments.

By the wsy, I am now perfect- ing s. trap whereby I can catch‘ crows by the hundreds during thel winter months. These crows will‘ be handed over to gun clubs for, trap-shooting purposes. And al-l though he is a black murderer we must trost him fair, and give him a chance for his life; therefore, my I request will be to shoot them from , five unknown traps at twenty-ﬁve to thirty yards rise. The shooter: will not be charged for tho crows} he kills, but will be ﬁned for every one he allows to escape; in addi- tion to the above fine ho will beI liable to any other punishment a, good, cheerful bunch of trap-shoot- I srs see fit to impose upon him, such as roll-riding him around the club- house for allowing one of these black murderers to get away. The shooters will be fined according to their shooting ability. These ﬁnes will be used for buying up old,‘ faithful horses which will be hu- manely destroyed and used for bait to decoy more of these old, black Pharaohs to their just doom, Thus what is now the crow nuisance will be turned into a sport.

The hawks and owls are worst on the adult. birds, the screech-owl is not so innocent as ho looks, but then: is none can compare with the great horned owl, and I just wish you knew the annoyance he has caused me by taking my choicest Pets. Yes, it seems he delights in taking the nearest 1nd dearest. But now let mo give my horn a. toot: Never once did a horned owl take a. bird from me but what paid the penalty.

About the only argument you hear in favor of the hawks and owls is "mice." But when a bunch of successful fi-rmers meet at my tile factory, nsvor in my life have I heard them complain about mice, and I know mice seldom bother clean, shrewd farmers. But I have heard them complain about worms until I could almost feel myself

crawling. ‘rho cut-worms ivere cut- ting their corn, or the wire-worms were destroying their oats, the army

forth. Personally I have never had any experience with worms, but field mics I have often carried in my pockets, and if it wasn't for some youth practising the same sport, how I would like to tell you some of the fun I have had with them when I was a lad. For the death of each mouse by hawks and owl; possibly we lose several birds which would destroy thousands and tlwusands n! worms each 31w. S know there is a. type of farmer who is much more easily annoyed by mice than others. You will usually find him down town, sitting on a soap box, smoking in the time, now and then getting up and moving his seat around and possibly turn- ing it end for end to keep it from getting tired: his stock at home are of the rainbow variety, with long whiskers, and when they see hlm coming they don't know whe- ther to come or go, and the one or two razor-backed, South Carolina, thistle-digger hogs don't care whe- ther or not they get out of the steaming manure heap, to be dis- appointed; the remnant of scrubby apple trees in the field, which some one else planted, have been fleece- grown ivivh cut grass ever since he got. possession of the farm, that, of course, was handed down to him. If your orchard is stubble or clover sod, go through it in the early fall. By being careful you can determine whether there are any fleldmlce there by their little, runways that criss-cross on the ground. If so, take about-one half bushel of grain and thirty or forty bundles of corn fodder; throw a handful or two of grain on the ground and two bundles of fod- der slde by side over it, making a nico mouse cover. Refuse hay, or clover chaff will do, but I prefer the corn fodder. Fifteen or twenty of these little harbors are suffic- lent in an ordinary orchard. In ten days or two weeks all the mice in the orchard will be under these covers. Now toks the six or eight- pronged pitchfrok, scratch around those little harbors to destroy their road 0f retreat, then throw the cover off quickly; the light striking their eyes so suddenly, ihcy arc apparently blinded for a second, giving you just time enough lo give them s side whack with you fork;

THE CODDJON 00L!)

We have come to the time of you when we hes: s sneeze here and s cough there, sud see people with running rinses and reddened eyes. The common oold, that per- sistent enemy of the human fam- ily, is again with us, making many miserable and“ all too often, lead- ing to serlcus and fatal trouble.

The name "Cold" suggests that the temperature ls responsible for this disease. but such is not the case. The common cold is most, prevalent when the temperature drops; it. is not the cold air which is responsible for this, but rather the things which the drop in tem- psrature leads us to do.

Instead of living and working in . the open nlr, or in moms with‘ open windows, as we do in sum- l

I mer, we begin, with the coming of l

cooler weather, to shut ourselves into overheated and badly-ventil- ated rooms. Fresh fruits and vege- tables are not.» readily obtainable, and diets are, therefore, apt to be paprly balanced. with fewer gam- es and less physical activity, the body soon suffers from lack of proper use.

These are the conditions then which apparentlih favour the 0c. currence of the common oold. But look around you, and sec as well as hear those who seem to be doing their best to scatter widely the oold which is theirs. These people seem sincere‘ in their desire to sharel They cannot 86% rid of their oold bl‘ passing it on to others, but to show that they are not selfish. they are willing to share ltl

Even though we are not in favor of laws as the means to gain an end, it does seem to us that the ex- ampio that would be made by lock- ing up a fow careless coughers and sneesers and spitters might furnish s valuable lesson. A little consid- eration on the part of those who have colds towards those who us not similarly afflicted would save a great deal of suffering. There is no particular reascn why the com- mon cold should destroy common sense.

Persons who have colds should be in bed. This may seem an ex. tremo measure, but if it were prac- tised it would save many lives which are now being lost, would shorten the duration of the attack of the cold, and would, above all, protect. othfrs. At least, coughs and sneezes can be covered with handkerchlefs-preferably psi/per ones-tho hands can be kept clean by repeated washing, and- the m- dlvidual who has s. cold can refrain from kissing the children of the family.

It. is regrettobh that no specific means for the prevention or cure of the common cold is available. We are left to fight it by maintain- ing the general health and by a.- voiding contact with cases-

There were aphids on the Indian corn, and on the dahllas, and I hoard that tho oats down East were badly infested.
