NOW SEE WHAT WINTER'S APPROACH HAS BROUGHT UPON WOOD'S TRADITIONS DEERS DON'T BURY THEIR HORNS

Wsil hi -r t ' Vv

That venerable tradition of the forest that the deer bury the horns they shed each spring is badly mutilated, by a disccvery made by Superintendent Geo. W. Bartlett of Algonquin national park of Canada. It was one of the traditions accepted by naturalists and nature fakers, one of the impeccable sort. But the deer do not painstakingly inter their cast-off antlers squirrels eat 'em I When this discovery has been generally O. K.'d it vn.U be "finis" to one of the mysteries of the forest primeval, one of the superstitions best cherished by tl ose of red or white skins, wearing moccassins or spectacles, who nowadays camp on the trail of the nature faker. The preparations for the fall and winter sports in the great park of 2,000 square miles caused the discovery. They are never too busy, never bo engrossed with the hunters or with the winter snowshoeing, skeeing and the rest to miss the natural history lesson as it is taught in the woods. "One spring di.. a gentleman from Washington wae walking with ie in the woods and we found a fine set of horns," relates Superintendent Bartlett, a m&p of the park outspread. "We marked them and the spot where they lav. It was months before I went ',o the spot again, nearly winter, and all that remained was this "holding up a ten-inch section of a main stem of a deer's horn, one end of which bore tooth marks precisely like the marks made by a beavav on the end of a log. The squirrels eat the horns no wonder that they rarely ever are found although the numbers Bhed each year run into many millions in Algonquin park alone the numbers after each winter run into many thousands. This is not ths only tradition which Superintendent Bartlett has shattered. With his Treat domain of rivers, lakes, woods and mountains reporting to him daily he has, he says, learned not to doubt many 'incredible" stories j4 . hat the .wild animals will do.

CITY ORDINANCE TO REGULATE THE COLLECTION, REMOVAL AND DISPOSITION OF GARBAGE AND WEEDS OF HAMMOND.

(Trlii ted at the request of the Civics Committee of the Hammond Woman' Club.)

That for the purpose of promoting the health and comfort of the citizens, and the cleanliness of the city, and preventing noxious and offensive odors therein, or the creation of public or private nuisances, it shall be un lawful for any person to throw out empty, or deposit In any lot, ground, premises, street, alley or other public highway in .said city, or wtihln two (2) miles therof, any kitchen slops, vegetable or anlma waste, porings, refuse or offal, commonly called garbage; but all such garbage shall be carefully deposited in garbage vessels as herein after prescribed and shall be systematically collected, removed and disposed of, and any person violating any of the provisions ot this section shall, on conviction thereof, be fined any sum no exceeding $25 for each offense. The said city shall systematically collect, remove and dispose of the garbage of all cltlssena who shall faithfully comply with the provisions of this ordinance; but all persons who shall fall the provisions of this ordinance, shall promptly remove and dispose of their own garbage at their own expense, and in a sanitary manner. Said garbage vessels shall be of wood or metal, water-tight, holding not less than ten, nor more than twenty gallons, handles and with a lid or cover and shall be constantly kept covered. It shall be unlawful for any person CITY'S RUBBISH NETS AN INCOME How Denver Turned Liability Into Asset and Added to Beauty of City. How to make money out of nothing; has been one of the recent demonstra tions in the administration of Denver. It Is a little system which can be followed to advange by nearly every city of the United States. It Is an especially timely subject in Hammond. For years the city of Denver had pursued the policy of using as dumping ' grounds any property upon which it ; could get permission to establish places for the disposal of the city's rubbish. I Often It paid for the right, and even ' . .. l" - city dumping department was run at a constant loss. Then some one got an Idea. Last Septemerlt was announced that the city's rtfbbish was worth something. Throughout the city there must be places which were below the level

of established grades and for which no vey Jetmore, expert automobile mause could be found at the present time, chlnist. last night killed himself by

Superintendent Bartlett's Cabin

to remove, injure or destroy any garbage vessel prepared and located as In this ordinance provided; and any perBon violating the provisions of this section shall upon conviction thereof, be fined In any sum not exceeding $25. For the purpose of systematically and in a sanitary manner collecting, removing and disposing of all garbage of the city, the street commissioner Is hereby charged and empowered to superintend the same, and Is hereby authorized and directed to secure competent and offloient assistants to promptly collect and remove and dispose of said garbage and slops, as herein contemplated. That It shall be unlawful for any person, persons, firm or corporation to permit suffer or allow any thistles, weeds, crush or undergrowth of vege

tation of any kind whatsoever, to be remain or grown upon any vacant or unimproved lot, lots, parcels or tracts of land, within the corporate limits of the city of Hammond,. Ind., and It shall be the duty of any person, persons, firm or corporation owning, leasing or controlling any such lots, tracts or parcels of land within said city to cause said undergrowth to be removed therefrom at least once each year not later during said year than the first day of August. Any person, firm or corporation violating this ordinance shall be fined In any sum not exceeding $100. To fill the places with good earth would mean a. big expense. Therefore why not fill It with the rubbish of the city and at a great deal less cost? The scheme met with Instant approval, and the offers poured"in to the city hall. In a month a revenue of more than 200 had been received, and the amount has been piling up higher and higher ever since. And the best of It is that lota which for years have been unsightly and nothing more than ditches are assuming a much more decent appearance. The refuse of the city Is not used for the whole of the filling In process. When the lot is within a foot or two of being filled to the level good earth Is then preeured and placed on the top for a dressing. Many of the real eptate men, having done this, are planting the earth in grass seed as soon as it is finished and turning what might be a weed patch into a lawn. And so from one idea the city of Denver Is not only making money, but it is beautifying what once were eyesores. That it is doing it at a profit Is demonstrated in the fact that the city dump department formerly cost $4,200 a year. Now It Is making about ,that much profit. 'attends H LI. fiAME, St'ICIDES.
