Queer Place for Nest.
Birds in London sometimes choose
queer nesting-places. A pair of spar
rows have this year chosen the gran
ite crown of the Royal coat of arms
which decorate the massive gothic
arch of the middle tower of the Tower
of London. There they have been seen
actively at work designing the arch
itecture of their home. The birds have
only just room enough to get in and
out of the stonework at the base of
the crown.

Quail tor Maryland Fields.
The Baltimore County Game and
Fish Protective association has
leased about 1,500 acres near Brad
shaw. The association has stocked
this territory with quail. The great
drawback in the field trials has been
the lack of birds. The association
was about to secure a big territory.
The Baltimore County association has
anticipated this and planted stock
raising birds on its 1,500 acres near
Bradshaw.—Baltimore Sun.

Canned Meat for Armies.
In war times there comes a big de
mand for canned beef, and then the
general public has to eat what is not
fit to go into the cans, for lean meat
looks and eats best in cans —gristle
and fat are poor stuff to can, so very
fat beeves are used for the public to
feast upon these times. Lean army
meat before canning is parboiled from
eight to twenty minutes, and shrinks
one-third in size. Fowls, game, fish,
pork and, for the matter of that,
horses, dogs, and cats, in some coun
tries, are all shrunk and parboiled,
like army beef before canning.—New
York Press.
British Target Practice.
Although the conditions of target
practice have been made more diffi
cult for the gunner, the number of
hits has increased in the British navy.
The tn "get, towed at an unknown
speed, is 30 feet high by 90 feet long,
the latter dimension being less than
one-fifth the length of a modern bat
tleship. During 1910 the 10 and 12-
inch guns averaged 0.7 hits per min
ute against 0.0 four years ago. The
9.2-inch guns for the whole fleet aver
aged 2.01 hits; the 7.5-lnch gun made
2.61 hits as against 1.58 made by this
gun four years ago.
Dog’s Heaven.
Wonderfully trained sympathetic
and smart dogs are the dearest com
panions of almost every German stu
dent who has the money to afford one
or more. These can be seen in the
university towns fantastically outfit
ted with the student corps color, in
ribbons or wearing the tiny monkey
student cap on doggie’s head. Often
are dogs sent on all sorts of chores,
carrying a basket of eggs, bread or
butter, a bottle of brandy, dressed
chicken, etc. Outside of too many
labor stunts—often grievous drudgery
—Germany is the dog’s true heaven.
North Carolina’s Wild Herses.
The wild horses living on the sand
banks of the North Carolina lagoons
are the descendants of horses left be
hind by Sir Walter Raleigh’s colonists,
when they abandoned Roanoke island.
On these banks sea oats with luxuriant
heads ? ow quite profusely, and these
are an article of food green or ripe.
No one knows exactly the number of
these ponies, but there are said to be
more than 3,000 of them now on the
banks.
Theories vs. Facts.
The certainties of the Christian re.
ligion give it prestige in the intellec
tual world of today. Theories are
husks, facts are food. Mankind tires
of husks; they need food. —Rev. Geo.
Adams. Methodist. Brooklyn

Trees on Waste Ground.
Besides the extensive plans for sow
ing broadcast the seed of native forest
trees on the bare patches of the moun
tains m Colorado. Wyoming and South
Dakota, government foresters are tak
ing steps to introduce a number of for
est trees which it is expected will add
appreciably to the verdure of the
mountains and will eventually become
an asset in the form of timber. As in
the case of human immigrants only
those foreigners or “exotics” that will
make good citizens are to be encour
aged. The species involved are Aus
trian pine, Corsican pine, Scotch pine,
Norway spruce and European larch.

The chocolate cake lunches of Gov
ernor Foss are a feature of the new
administration in Massachusetts. The
governor has been so busy with the
budget since he took oilice that ho
has been unable to afford the tinio
for lunches on many days. When
the members of the executive coun
cil, who sit in the finance committee
with the governor, become a bit
restless and the pangs of hunger be
gin to be felt the governor digs down
In his pockets and says: “Have a
cake of chocolate, boys. It will keep
you going until we have finished this
appropriation.”
