Meadowlark Is Vindictive Enemy of Insect, Hunting for Prey Among Dead Stalka?Never Injurious to Growing Crops. Birds of the woods and fields can not be expected to kill out the boll weevil and prevent Its spread, but j they can, and do, help greatly. Any I help that planters and the small cot ! ton growers may receive from bird | life will aid In controlling this pest of j the southern agriculturist. The United States bureau of bio logical survey has found that there are forty-three species of birds that devour millions of boll weevils. The experts of this bureau have Issued a ; bulletin announcing that these birds ! are one of the most Important checks j upon the spread of the weevil. During the fall migrations of the ' swallows, the orchard and the Baltl | more orioles I have watched these ! birds, feeding by the hour on the weevils that are then flying freely, says a writer in the Farm Progress. Some of the birds shot at that time had as many as thirty-seven weevils In their crops, and the cliff swallows ! that were examined averaged nine teen weevils to the bird. In a week I nave seen at least 15,000 birds pass I on their fall migration; and these j must have destroyed millions of these pests of the cbtton grower. I In Louisiana, Arkansas, Oklahoma j and Tennessee the black birds can be depended upon to help the planter greatly In his flght against the weevil. The crow-blackbird, the red-winged variety, the cow-bird and the brewer are fairly common In all these states. Last fall, while I was raking up the cotton stalks and getting tne ground ready for fall plowing, hundreds of blackbirds followed the rake, picking up every boll weevil that was die PRODUCTION OF BABY r WelkFec Young fat cattle are now In great Jemand. The trouble with most far riers who raise yearlings Is that they Jo not feed them the first year, only et them run on pasture, and the first rinter carry them over on dry fodder ind hay. The fact la, this Is the time the calves should be fed all they will sat. The fact Is, from the time they are weaned from milk they should be taught to consume all they will eat, the Idea of trying to get them along sn as little as will support them re sults only In a stunted scrub. A calf should be taught to eat grain before It s weaned, and the ensuing summer it should have a regular and full al .owance of grain, corn, oats, bran or j cottonseed meal, so as to develop the : whole frame, and at all times should j be what Is called fat Most farmers would call this a waste^ j of feed, but a good trial would change fUSE CARE IN STORING EGGS | Should Not Be Placed In Clo6e Prox imity to Onions op Other Strong Smelling Vegetables. Prof. W. R. Graham of the Ontario itatlon says of the flavor, of eggs and some of tho causes of low-grade eggs: Many of us forget that eggs will ab sorb odors as readily as milk but, at the same time, care should be taken In keeping the storage-room for eggs i free of strong odors. For Instance. 1 to put eggs alongside onions, tur j nips or similar strong-smelling foods, would mean that the eggs would ab sorb more or less of these flavors. Again, the food that a hen con sumes very materially affects the fla [ vor of the eggs. This can be very J easily demonstrated^ by feeding costly 3corched grain or giving large quan tities of pulped onions in a mash food, j Dne demonstration will convince any !jne that eggs have been scorched or ! iaste of onions, no matter how :cooked. j When the hens get but little grain I food during the summer and are , forced to hunt for their living over manure piles and catch Insects, the ' yolk will become almost red in color, j These eggs make consumers remark ; that winter eggs taste better than j summer eggs. Frequently feeding as i above produces a thin, watery white, ; and the eggs have not only a bad fla vor. but have poor keeping qualities, j and, moreover, is little better If as ! good as a fair pickled or cold-storage I .

They destroyed thousands every day. When the plows began to turn over the soil, the birds were on hand again gorging themselves with the weevils. Rvorv insert Hestroved at that time cut down greatly the spring hatching. In the north, among the cornfields and the meadows, the common meadow lark is valuable in killing ] out the field worifis, the cutworms and other enemies of the grasses and young corn plants. In the northern part of the southern states the meadow lark Is the vindictive enemy ' >>v -.V-- - - The Meadowlark. of the boll weevil. In Arkansas and parts of Oklahoma they hunt for their food among the tangles of the dead cotton stalkB, and they kill out thou sands of weevils. Their presence Is never harmful to crops at any ume in me boubuu, ua they are insect eaters, rarely bother ing with grain. At the season when the cotton ground is being broken they are especially busy among the dead bolls and stalks of the cotton patch. Purple martins, cliff swallows, bank and barn swallows, quails and a score of other birds are tremendous helps In keeping the prolific weevil from smothering the cotton fields out of existence. During the periods of spring and fall migration, millions of birds cross the southern states on their way from and to the north, uaa they reduce the weevils by the mil* lion. BEEF IS PROFITABLE \ i Steers. their minds. K 1b the best form ot utilizing feed. Then after pasturing and feeding all summer the calves should be put In a close feed lot and fattened on clover or alfalfa hay, corn, cottonseed meal and silage If one haa the silo. In this way a yearling can be made to bring twice what It would otherwise be worth. This method Is worked out by many farmers In the Northwest, where the summers are short and winters se vere. In the Central WeBt and Souta, where the climate^ is mild, the prol* lem should be 'easily solved. It la practicable, and the money and time spent are well envested. Instead of marketing thin yearlings, weighing 600 or 700 pounds, and bringing 3% cents, they should be fitted to 1,000 pounds I or more, and fetch six to seven cents, j The market for baby beef will never be overdone. Young cattle alwaya bring good prices. HANDLING THE TOMATO CROP Most Important Part of the Work l? DlcUnn Rnr+lnfl and Pack Ing?Some Good Hints. (By W. H. UNDERWOOD.) The most Important part of thk handling of a tomato crop Is the pick* ing, sorting and packing. If wisely and carefully done the results will be very satisfactory. In handling my tomato crop I first go through the field searching closely for all smooth, sound tomatoes just in the turning stage?that la, with a Blight shade of redness In color, yet green and firm. I never pick any cracked or disfig ured tomatoes to ship to market I place only smooth, uniform specl mpns In the crate baskets on their sides, with the blossom ends up, so as to show to the best advantage. I do not crate anything but No. li in a No. 1 package and No. 2 quality in a No. 2 package. Anything inferior to No. 2 will not pay to crate. By ob serving this rule I am saved the cost of many crates, also the transportation charges on them, as well as the labor of putting them up and obtaining bet ter prices for what I ship. When picking for the market I aim to pick only No. 1 fruit, then when packing there is not much No. 2 fruit to pack. By not picking the cracked or disflg urea iruu green, uui ieiuug u remaiii on the vines to ripen to the right stage for the canning factory, more money can usually be realized from It than if packed to ship.

"We took the coastwise boat, which below stairs was crammed with na tives, ponies, carabaos, vegetables, the Inevitable fighting cocks (a native neg lects his family, but never his game cock), fish, smell and babies. "On the upper deck, however, be neath an awning, we were comfortable enough In steamer chairs.

It was paddled expertly by natives, pic turesque in their scanty attire, and wearing at their belts knives quite large enough to make me shudder. We arrived at the station to see a magnifi cent sunset and eat a unique dinner. On the menu were of course many familiar dishes, but besides there were fried bananas sliced crosswise, thin and crisp, tasting like eggplant, a cousin to the cucumber, roasted, a salad made from cocoanut buds with mayonnaise. I did not like it at all? rice like popcorn, bamboo shoots, chicken with curry and a Jelly made from flowers, which tasted like cur? rants, also a drink of cocoanut milk, which Is awful.

"Our host has a charming, if lonely existence. There are fifty native men in the barrio, whom he oversees at their work. His household arrange ments are perfect, but It takes four boys and a cook to keep them so. It seems so funny to see a boy in pink knee pants, no shirt, but a dagger in his belt, serving chocolate, and excel lent chocolate at that "The place Is beautifully laid out; the irrigation ditches are crossed by pretty bamboo bridges, all things lending themselves to the general ef fect. I saw coffee, bananas and pine apples growing for the first time, the latter a beautiful red while growing. You should see the wonderful orchids and ferns, some with fronds twelve feet long."

SELLERS, Director of Eve ning Department, The Moody Bible Institute of Chicago.) LESSON FOR AUGUST 4. THE WORTH OF THE KINGDOM. . LESSON TEXT-Matthew 13, 44-53. GOLDEN TEXT?"Seek ye first his kingdom, and his righteousness; and all these things shall be added unto you." Matthew 6:33. We have studied some of the prin ciples that are to obtain in the es tablishing and the working out of this new kingdom Jesus came to found, and the question naturally arises, "Is it of sufficient value for mt> to con aider or seek to ent9r it, or to possess it?" In our lesson today there is set before us four parables (Jesus' favorite way of teaching) which he gave priv ately to his disciples and not to the multitude, that ought to answer any such questioning in our hearts. The first two have to do with the great value of the kingdom, the sec ond its mixed character and final sepa ration, and the last, the great respon sibility of those who possess its truths. In this entire group of par ables found In the thirteenth chapter of Matthew are four that are for men who are careful to observe the out ward development, and four others that are for those men of faith who see beneath the surface the hidden things of the kingdom. Those men who view the kingdom in each par ticular age as God sees rather than as man observes. Today's lesson sets fortfi the pur chase of things of great value, the ac quisition and disposition of thingb of a mixed value, and lastly, the use ci j tbeso values after coming into tbe pos session of them. I. The hidden treasure, v. 44. Per haps more properly this should he termed the parable of the bought field. We need* to remember that In all of these parables the Master himself Is the important peisonage. He Is the one who sows the seed, etc. Hence we understand that he Is the one who discovers this great treasure hid den In the field. He has already told us that "the field 1b the world" (Matt 13:38). Symbolism of Pearls. II. The pearl of great price, vs. 45, 4fl This rmrahlfl is verv much the same as the foregoing, yet it adds great strength and force to this study in values. We ought to be very clear in our study and application. The pearl of great price may perhaps be taken as a symbol of our salvation, but if so for us to interpret the merchant man as the commonality of man would be for the sinner to purchase his own salvation, a thing as far as possible for the New Testament teaching. Why does Jesus speak of pearls to tne Hebrews who did not esteem them at all? What is the symbolism of a pearl? The pearl is the one precious stone that 'is the result of a living organism; it is the result of an injury done to the life of the oyster. It has always stood for purity and for in Tinronrfi Ts it then illoeical for US to assume that Christ is the merchant man who gave all to redeem (e. g., buy back) the lost souls of mankind? Let us turn to Paul's words, remem bering the washing process, the pain ful process of developing pearls and the ultimate beauty and value of this the pearl of great price. "Christ also loved the church, and gave himself for It; that he might sanctify It, hav ing cleansed It by the washing of water with the Word, that he might present the church to himself a -glo rious church. Not having spot or wrinkle or any such thing: but that it should be holy and without blem ish." (Eph. 5:25-27.) III. The drag net, vs. 47-50. This parable Is another that deals with the mixed character of the kingdom here upon the earth and of the final separa tion incident thereto. It is noticeable that this is collective, not individual, fishing. There will be many move ments that will ostensibly be for the gathering of men Into this kingdom, nriiiMnln lnld rlown is UUl kUO J? _ - that one considered In the lesson of the wheat and the tares, viz., that ul timately there shall be cast out all things that do offend. In the finality of all things the kingdom shall be without spot or blemish. Hence we do not read into this parable empha sis upon any phase of evangelism. Search the Scriptures. IV. The householder, vs. 51-53. In the first of these parables we had the Word as the seed of this new kingdom, in this the eighth of the kingdom par ables we revert as it were to the mat ter of the Word. Jesus asks his disciples if they understand the Word he has spoken to them. Their re sponse is, "Yes, we do." Then Jesus shows them what a burden of respon sibility due to possession rests upon them. Jesus refers to the Scribes whose work under the Jewish econ omy was to transcribe and to interpret and tells the disciples that they in a like manner are to interpret the king dom to all men. They are to "bring forth" hidden treasures. We must re * xU-i. +o 11 rrVi + f r> r\n T*Q memuer uai, jcouo iau6i.?? . that "hearing they might not hear," etc.,' hence we are to search the Scriptures and bring forth these hid den treasures of truth as we go about doing our part in the ushering of the kingdom. There are two ways of our entering this kingdom, a right one and a wrong one. We may think we have entered by doing something, e. g., by our works, only to find that when the con tents of the drag net are examined we i shall be cast forth. Or we may gain j the pearl of great price, even Christ himself by faith, and find in him all that fulness for which men are starv ing. Find in him the sum of all val ues. When we enter this kingdom through him who is the Way, the Truth, and the Life, we will discover it was a profitable bargain to part with all, for what will a man give in exchange for his soul?
