Those birds Vn your orchard are
worth money to you. They will catch
insects before they can injure the
trees, and if there were only birds
enough there would be no need of so
much troublesome and expensive
spraying. I knew of an orchard
where, the birds were protected and
encouraged to stay, and no spraying
neccessary for years. Finally the
boys and the hunters from town thin-
ned out the quail and other birds, and
now the orchard has to be sprayed
several times a yeai.—The Farm
World.
Chewing Gum Habit.
Blanche Bruce of Nashville, Ten
nessee has this to say of the gum
chewing habit: I can tell many
girls why they have missed their
chance of marrying While they
may be good looking and may dress
well, if they have that awful habit of
gum chewing there is not a gentleman
out of five hundred who will take one
of them for a wife unless ha is a ha-
bitual gum chewer himself.
Why is it that women persist in
gum chewing in public when it is, as
we all know, a vulgar habit? It" one
must chew gum for indigestion one
should do so in privacy of one's room
at home.
I have talked to dozens of men
both in business and in professional
life, and they tell me that the gum
chewing habit is so repulsive that it
makes them often lose a valuable
acquaintance or business deal
Awoman.no matter matter how
smartly gowned, has no attraction
for them when they see "her jaws
working like b. steam engine.
A prominent physician told me that
hiswifehad tostand all the way home
in the car from the city, a distance
of eight miles,because otherwise she
would have been compelled to seat
herself beside a woman or a girl who
was chewing gum, which was so sick-
ening that she could not endure it.
I have a young man cousin at Yale
university, ind he will not mike the
acquaintance of a young woman who
chews gum.
He and his companions formed a
club, and there are now 150 in this
club of young millionaires and law-
yers and doctors, who have signed
pledges never to marry a young wo-
man, no matter how attractive she is,
who chews gum in public.
They are sincere, as he told me
lhat one cannot go in the best society
if one's wife embarrasses one by
chewing gum
When you hear a man sneering at
the local paper because it is not big,
cheap and newsy as the city papers,
you can safely bei he does not squan-
der any of his wealth in ass sting to
make it better and that generally the
paper has done more for him than he
has for it. The man who canhot see
the benefits arising from a locil n-iws
paper is about as much value to town
as a delinquent tax list.
Another Prize Winner.
In this issue of the paper we tell
of two boys who have won renown in
corn raising and now comes E M.
Tardy with information that Leslie
Callahan another boy who is attend-
ingour High school and wholives t*o
miles west of Chandler has taken
third prize for yellow corn in the
third district and won a $10 prize.
The same lad won a premium at the
natioinal com show at Columbus,
Ohio, also won second prize in the
third district last yeir, The Lincoln
county crop of boys and girls is our
greatest crop.—Chandler Tribune.
While President Taft is going
around the country talkin about uni-
versal peace, Italy and Turkey fly at
each other's throats. Both nations
are signatories to The Hauge agree-
ment providing that all differences
between nations be submitted to ar-
bitration. Still they goto war on 24
hours' notice without asking the con-
sent of any other nation. It is very
evident that if the Utopian dream of
universal peace is ever realized the
world will have to fight for it.
There is this distinction, at least
between the piece worker and the
peace maker, points out the Osawat-
omie Graphic. The first is generally
too busy to interfere with other peo-
ple's business, the latter hasn't to do
to keep out of other people s affairs.
The press corrpondents at head'
quarters call it the Tripolitan war
The head writers generally style i
the Turko-Italian war, although some
turn it the other way around and make
it read Italo-Turkish. But the Atch
ison Globe, which hasn't much re-
spect for either belligerent, hits it off
as the Turko-Dago controversy
And that may sticks.
A distinguished Ok'ahoman says
that the exhibits at Oklahoma City
fair misrepresent the state, or, rather
the season, There were enough
showers in spots to permit as fine an
agricultural and fruit display as any'
body ever saw, despite the worst sea
son the state as a whole ever passed
through.
