All their music is .reserved for after breakfast <*oucerts, when ^hgy tigy? n<?Tt>t?g' hif mt^T I'nllke the negro hands over In the next field, they (In not sing wlilte at Work. Uirks walk and run, but they never hop, as that would tower their native dignity. They move through the tangled grass with the stately tread of a turkey, and were it not for the frequent twitching of their lulls, they might lie mistaken for partridges. There Is nothing fussy or frivolous about a lark, but he carries himself with a oertalu rejH>so ami serenity of demeanor that mrfrks hint as one to the "manor born." They are eminent ly soelal In their nature, and if birds of their own family are not to be had, they readily associate with snow birds or sparrows ; ami when driven by hun ger, he sjH'nds many winter days with the hens around the barn. Ill thA early morning they love to Either in small parties In the top of some tree In the edge of the pasture, and In clear, sweet souks, tell tlm world how happy they are. When In this ex isted posit Ion, they become very wary and alert and are oft and gone long before one gets within range. Hut when they once more get hack among their beloved straw and hill grass, their vigilance relaxes and they allow one to come quite near iM'fore they will take wing. They build among the grass of mea dows and the stubble of cultivated fields, and have the knack of hiding their nests so jierfectly, ttyat they are pretty safe from prying human eyes; but whether they hide them as success fully from snakes, raccoons, ']x>xsums, minks, and Held mice Is another ques tion. They usually select a bunch of tall timothy or hroomstraw. and place the lowly neat well back atnong the roots, ami by artfully pulling the grass over It, and leaving only a small o]>eniug at the side for a door, through which the quiet little mother squeezes her self when going In or out, the white siHs-kled eggs are alwut as hard to tind as the proverbial needle In a hay stack. So many little lark babies are eaten by the four-fooed prowlers of meadow and Held, that the parents timl It necessary to raise two broods In a season, to keep the census of yel low breasts up to normal. During this time ?>f anxiety and family cares, the lark tinds precious little time for sing ing, and unless aceidently flushed by some one tramping through the fields, he is very seldom seen. At this season he is also Changing his clothes to the more somber suit, that lie wears in winter; the browns taking on a still more earthy hue, and the gold of throat and breast fades Into ? shade match ing better the yellow of autumn leaves. All this time when his voice Is seldom heard, he is working hard to rid the fields of such i>e&ts as the boll weevty, and the alfalfa weevil. When one learns what the food of the field lark Is, he wonders how a farmer can act so much against Ills own interests as to allow one pf these birds to be kill ed on land that lie owns; For six months of the year. Insects constitute 5H) |H*r cent. of its food; during August and September 5)5) per cent Is insects. And most of these are insects that the farmer Is better off for having killed. He is particularly fond of cutworms, and the dreaded army worm, lie had rather eat than caviar served smoking i hot. He Is careful never to molest growing crops, and .the only grain lie ever eats Is that shattered out and left on the ground. So you sec he does absolutely no harm at all. ami does do a whole lot of good, and It seems a pity that he should l?e slaughtered for the little mouthful of meat that is found 011 Ills breast, surely not enough to put him ill the class of game birds. ?

Gor don Jones, of Cordele, sees unless the question of removal of the capital of Georgia can lx? settled next year, there Is a way to bring about a settlement, of It that may not be so entirely sat isfactory as it might be otherwise, but which "will put. an end to this light, over the thing." "Now the situation has reached the point." he suvs. "where, "in" tlie luterr est of development and a satisfied state of the public mind In the lower part of the state something has got to bo done to eud it all. If the capital removal proposition isn't settled, and south Georgia can't get what's coming to her. then the movement wijl !>e earnestly put on foot in that part of the state ? and we start It, I'll tell you, we are going through wltli it ? to cut the state of Georgia in half and make another state out of South Georgia, -with-- <V>roele as the capital of the new state." , . , .
