" Dean C. Worcester, formerly of the University of Michigan, and now sec retary of the Philippine Islands, gives some interesting particulars about the head hunters of the island of Luzon in a recent issue of The Geographical Magazine. He states that six or sev en of the tribes found in the northern part of the island have been addicted to head-hunting. "When I first en tered the country of the Ifugaos," he continues, "I found many of the houses ornamented with fresh human skulls, and I saw many victims of head-hunt ing raids. "When an Ifugao war party returns with a head it executes a ceremonial march or dance one hardly knows which to call it which denes success ful description. The men have their split raincoats on their backs. On the insides of these raincoats are pockets, which form convenient receptacles for gory trophies.

I have seen others with great open-work baskets of skulls hanging under the eaves. "A man who loses his head is con sidered to have treated his family and friends somewhat shabbily. He is not buried as an ordinary person would be, but is carried to a resting place on some hillside far from his native vil lage.

Amount of Damage Done by This Bird v Varies With Depth of Planting, Condition of 8oll and Pro ? I , Imlty to Pasture. (By H. C. BRTANT.) The meadowlark Is not a true lark, but belongs to the same family to which the blackbird and oriole be long. Since the meadowlark of the eastern states differs from that found In the western states In both song and coloration, the bird of the west Is termed the western meadowlark. This is a common bird from Wiscon sin, Illinois, Iowa, Texas, etc., west to the Pacific coast, also ranging north Into Canada and south Into Mexico. The meadowlark Is well known be cause of Its size, bright plumage and cheerful song. It Is a conspicuous bird of treeless areas and a frequenter of the meadow and pasture. In Cali fornia it Is found from sea level to altitudes of 7,000 feet in the moun tains. It 1b most abundant in the great central valleys where, in some places, the birds - may be seen con gregated in flocks of fifty or more, feeding almost entirely on the ground. This meadowlark appears to be one of the few birds which Is profiting by the increased cultivation of land. Al falfa furnishes particularly good food and cover for the bird and grain fields Holes Bored by Meadowlarks In Ob taining Kernels of Sprouting Grain. are often chosen for a home. With the furnishing of still more good food and cover, combined with the destruc tion of some of Us enemies, the west ern meadowlark may be expected to still further increase in numbers. Oats appear to be preferred. In the fields Inspected, damage was greatest In Bandy soil, for here the grain Is more easily obtained. Next to the condition of the soil, the factor gov erning the extent of damage appears to be the proximity of the natural habitat of the bird. Fields bordering on marsh grass lands and pastures suffer most. In some Instances the meadow lark have followed the drill row for distances of four to six feet and ap parently pulled every sprout Barley and wheat are attacked to a less ex tent than oats. Field corn and sor ghum are not damaged. Meadowlarks can succeed In pulling the sprouting grain only when it first appears above the ground. After the second and third blades appear the plant is well rooted and the kernel no longer essential to the life of the plant. Only the grain which is within one and one-half Inches of the surface Is obtainable. Hence the difficulty of obtaining the kernel and the ter mination of the time during which the kernel la essential to the life of the plant soon makes destruction im possible. Hard, dry soil precludes attack. Damage is greatest after the soil has been softened by rain. In vestigation shows that fields appar ently greatly damaged while the grain was sprouting have shown but little damage at harvest time. In some oases a certain amount of thinning may be beneficial so that unless the damage Is great the birds may per form a real service. The fact that oats is most seriously damaged and that, with the exception of barley and wheat, other grains are not attacked also minimizes the amount of possible damage. When the benefits conferred by the meadowlark are balanced with the Injuries, there remains no doubt that the bird deserves protection. 'Its value as a destroyer of Injurious in sects far exceeds its detriment as a destroyer of sprouting grain. The value of one of these birds living to one dead Is as five pounds of Insects and one-half pound of weed seeds is to one and three-fourths pounds of grain, a considerable part of which Is made up of wild oats and ' waste grain. A strong point favoring their pro tection Is to be found in the faot that the damage to sprouting grain fields can be largely prevented by planting grain deeply and drilling Instead of broadcasting, two measures highly advocated as favoring larger crops.

When Soils Cease to Produce. The trouble with soils when tha-r oease to produce as they did when new Is not that elements of nlant food are actually exhausted from the soil, but the necessary force for the liberation are exhausted. One of these forces Is bacteria. It is esti mated that In the common soil there ire 150,000,000 bacteria to the ounce. These bacteria must have for their food humus, then they will liberate food for the growth of plants. To be i good farmer one needs to grow legumes and other cover crops plants to turn under for humus, and to en courage these beneficial bacteria to perform tholr functions In the soil. Fruits and Vegetables. Fruits and vegetables not only In- crease the healthfulness and attrac tiveness of the dally bill of fare, but they save a great deal of expense, and are far better than the canned goods from the store.

Thousands of people suffer from baldness and falling hair who, having tried nearly every advertised hair tonic and hair-grower without results, have resigned themselves to baldness and ita attendant discomfort Yet their case Is not hopeless; the following sim ple home prescription has made hair grow after years of baldness, and is also unequalled for restoring gray hair to its original color, stopping hair from falling out and destroying the dandruff germ. It will not make the hair greasy, and can be put up by any druggist; Bay Rum, 6 ounces; Lavona de Compos ee, 2 ounces; Menthol Crystals, one-half drachm. If you wish it perfumed, add half to one tea spoonful of To-Kalon Pefume, which unites perfectly with the other Ingredient. This preparation is highly recommended by physi cians and specialists, and is absolutely harm less, as it contains none of the poisonous wood alcohol so frequently found in hair tonics. According to an English parllamen tary committee the production of all of London's electric power in a few large ctatlons would save 6,000,000 tons of coal a yenr and greatly lessen the smoke nuisance. CARE FOR STACKED ALFALFA Best Way to Cure Hay Is to Rake I Into 8mall Wlnrows and Let the Crop Dry Out Slowly, Sometimes weather conditions mat It almost Impossible to put alfalfa ha in the stack in good condition, ant heating and burning results. A. H Leidligh, assistant professor of crops at the Kansas Agricultural college says a comparison will show why th water does not readily cure out of th stems. If a tree is cut down on f cool, cloudy day, eaid Professor Leid ligh, the leaves remain green and fresh for some time. They take water from the trunk and pass it off into the atmosphere. If the weather is reasonably cool for a few days, the water will all be taken out of the tree. - Now, If the tree is cut down on a hot Bultry day the leaves will dry up and fairoff . The water is still in the trunk of the tree, and there Is no way for it to get out quickly. It is the same with alfalfa. When it is impossible to wring water out of the hay, eays Professor Leidligh, it is dry enough to stack. The best way to cure hay is to rake it into small wlnrows and let it dry out slowly. If the ground is damp, or il the air is very moist, the winrowi must be turned frequenty to expose all the hay to the sun. Hay often heats in the stack be cause it is rained on, or because it ab sorbs moisture from the ground. Not less than $5 to $10 worth of hay is spoiled on the top and bottom of a 25-foot stack of alfalfa, put up in the usual way. This loss may be avoided by stacking on a foundation of poles, or under sheds. The money saved on a few stacks will pay for the shed. Opinions differ on Just how muoh the feeding value of alfalfa is., af fected by heating. Some argue that while it lowers the feeding value, it improves the taste. Cattle usually eat brown and black alfalfa with more relish than they do the bright green hay. 1 SPRAY MACHINE IS USEFUL Power Pumped Through Nozzles ai Cart Moves Over Field Used for 8owlng Grass 8eed.

The machine Is de signed primarily for the purpose ol spraying insectide over growing plants and Is a big improvement on the hand method of doing this work, being not only much more thorough, but much more speedy, as It sprays seven oi eight rows at once. Such a machine might also be UBed to sow certain kinds of seed, like grass seed, that did not have to be dropped in rows. Tillage la Manure. The old maxim that tillage is ma nure has been shown to be true at Cornell university farm, where ex periments were made in that direc tion. Some plots of potatoes were cultivated as many as eight times, and in every case the greater the number of times the plants were cul tivated the larger the ylelde com pared with plots on which fewer cul tivations were given. The level culture was better than hilling. Two lots, cultivated eight times, left perfectly level through the season, produoed at the rate of 384 bushels and 857 bushels per acre, and three lots cultivated five times, produced 849 bushels, 82S bushels and 283 bushels, the laet lot being hilled at the final cultivation. 17.
