."Back when the nation was needin I sons Most 'em natcherly took t' (runs, 'Ceptinjr Jim and he tays says he: I choose sticks an a drum for me.' " I The rran who recognized and immortalized the value of "Old Jim Wade's" drumminjr in '63, knows that human nature has not changed in the half eentjiry since Jim put pep into the boys with his rat-a-tat-tat. . This student of human nature is John D. Wells, erstwhile smithy, traveling showman, U. S. cavalryman, machinist, journalist and finally managing: editor of the Buffalo Evening News and author of several volumes of delicious verse "Old Good-By's and Howdy-Do's" and "Yonr Folks and Mine" already well known and well loved, and now a new volume, "Rhymes of Our Home l-'olks." just published. . John D. Wells does not write about sirens and sexes, nor aeons and enigmas. It takes no lecturer to 'interpret his poems. They tell of simple, homely, every-day things of life. They are full of music. They re full of truth. To read them once is to read and reread them many times. They grip the heart as Riley's Eoems do. ."Tis said Riley's mantle as fallen onto Wells's shoulders. 1

FEED THE BIRDS DURING WINTER By P. Q. HOLDEN. THERE are no more industrious or more raluabl. laborers on the tana than the birda. From daybreak until nightfall they work for xm. unceasingly, quietly, persistently. They destroy million, of catarpHlara, grubs, borers, beetles insects that are destruetiTe to field crop finl foliage, vegetable and flowers. j For the greater part of the year they demand no care from us, no thonght. no supervision. They are laborers of the highest decree of skill, for they do work no other help on the farm can accomplish. j Only In the winter time, when the Insects upon which they Bre have mostly disappeared, is It necessary for ns to feed them. And, then, unless we provide them with food, especially during the severely cold weathar or wftea heavy snow covers the ground, they, win certainly perish or be compelled tai migrate to some other locality. ' j In many Instances birds have caved entire crops of grain or of froft from destruction. A single bird often eats more than 100 Insects at single meal) sometimes consumes several thousand small insects. A oaIl will eat front 500 to 1,000 weed seed in the coarse of a few hours as wen as destroy large

ter and grit, especially during or after storms. 2. Furnish places of shelter where birds can find food and eat comf ortablj during sleet and snow storms. . .- . 3. Protect feeding places against cats. Bones with shreda of meat, pieces of apple, birdseed, crackers, bread crumbs, cracked corn, hemp and millet seed, whole or rolled oats, peppers, popcora pumpkin and squash seed, sunflower seed, peanuts and other nut meats, raw end boiled rice, are among the best winter feed for birds. On practically every farm there are open 6heds, corn cribs or other places of shelter where food can be placed for birds. Food shelves can b placed on window sills or in trees adjacent to the house, and feeding and watering the birds will be a pleasant task for the children. An excellent shelter for quail, the most valuable of all birds to the farmer, can be made by digging deep boles on the south and east sides of a hay or straw stack, at its base. But care must be made tc remove any snow that mat be blown over the opening, closing it, durtnc a storm. If allowed to remaii "snowed in" the birds will starve. -

He knows that after the madness of battle, the heart yearns for something soothing - something sweet something of home and the home folks, and John D. Wells means that they shall have it.. He is going to take it to them. He realizes that his gun-carrying days are past but like "Old Jim Wada" he will drum the boys along with songs cf home and home-life and . songs of other soldier boys. - Big-heartedness, .

Field sparrows live almost entirety upon weed seed. The unpopular Blue Jay Is fend of hairy caterpillars, and the despised crow devours largo n ambers, of June beetles and white grubs. i We should encourage and protect all kinds of birds, as every destructive insect and the seeds of practically every weed are eaten by one or more ol them. To protect birds through the winter we should: 1. Supply food, wa r. Pi WruC TurW f.AV&LCVMIU every soldier who listens to Wells's tale. "A Cavalryman" Wells will not be privileged to whack at the foe with butt and bayonet, but he will make every mother's son who hears him read "An Old Sayin' of Mother's," whack with double, energy. , ' This is the tale of a trooper, t fellow who had no God . -Who earned his pay on a scrubby bay - at the left of a ragged squad; Booted and spurred and cursing, with nary a thought of good, He made but one, as the rosters run, of the Fighting Brotherhood. ,
