As they go on building, the motner bird gets inside the nest and turns round and round, to make it fit her. Then it must be lined. The bir go and gather feathers and horsehairs. Some get wool from the sheep pasturs Some birds honfes are only plat- forms, and it seems as if the eggs must roll off; and some have their pests in a bole in the ground. HARRY SCHATZ Age 13 Yantic.

LITTLE BOY BEAR, Main, of Ledyard. —— e e farms, especially in some sections, where the farm hands are getting in the habit of working by the hour in- stead of by the day. If you go to work ioo early in the morning, they may want naturally to quit too early in the afternoon. Some farmers complained last year, about the law, but most of them grinned and moved forward their clocks. However, you manage it. you will probably find it best to turn forward the clock and keep time with the rest| of the world, although we have heard of whole neighborhoods which kept the old sun time last year and didn't suffer any great disaster.
