nmong landed properties in tho United States. Tho Wendel estate, incident
ally, antedates that of tho Astors, as tho first John Gottlieb Wendel turned
from tho fur trade to tho acquisition of Now York real estate several years
before the first John Jacob Astor mado a similar transition.
Of tho sisters, only ono is married. She has no children. She is Mrs.
Luther A. (Rebecca A. G. Wendel) Swope of 249 Central Park west, where
bug lives alono with her husband.
8ho is tho only ono of tho family who over ventures abroad among her
kind.
Tho other sisters, Mary E. A , Ella E. von E. and Gcorgiana G. K. Wen
del, still cling to tho old houso on tho northwest corner of Thirty-ninth slreot
and Fifth avenue, directly opposlto the Union Leaguo club.
Tho Wendel houso is a three-story brown stono front, red brick structure.
It was built in 18GG, and looks overy year of Its ago. Its original cost was
about $5,000, and though it stands on n lot now assessed at a value of
11,897,000, it has nover been altered or renovated in tho slightest degree.
Up at Irvlngton is the Wendel country estato. For a score of years tho
annual migration to and from Irvlngton has formed tho solo occasion of tho
public appearance of tho four sisters. Every spring they, Mr. Swope and
tho two old servants lcavo tho houso nt Thirty-ninth street and walk tho
three blockB up to Forty-second street and two blocks to tho Grand Central
terminal to tako tho train for Irvlngton. Even this brief excursion Is matter
for anxious preparation and is undertaken in fear and trembling.
Warning to All Flies: Keep Away From St. Louis
ST. LOUIS. Tho St. Louis Klll-the-Fly association is preparing to inaugu
rate a campaign this spring that will, if it receives the aid of tho public,
make St. Louis a flyless city. Tentative plans provide for the paying of a
cash price for every fly delivered,
nnd in addition tho awarding of thou
sands of prizes contributed by mer
chants and citizens. The grand prizo,
to tho boy or girl presenting tho
greatest number of flics during tho
season will bo an automobile, accord
ing to tho tentative plans.
"It was last season's campaign
that showed tho pcoplo what could
bo done," says Dr. G. A. Jordan, as
sistant health commissioner. "Thero
woro fewer flies in St. Louis last
year than over, and it was tho destruction of tho early flies that showed what
concerted nction could accomplish '
"What tho association will accomplish this year depqnds entirely an how
generously tho public responds to our appeal for aid. Circular letters aro
now being sent out explaining tho need for contributions.
"If wd should got a fund of $15,000 I feel that wo can practically ellm
lnato tho fly in ono season. If wo get a smallor sum wo will mako it go just
as far as it will and do just as much good as wo can.
"Wo want to get prizes, thousands of them, ho that every boy or girl
who enters the campaign will receive not only his pay in cash for tho flies
ho destroys, but will rocolvo a prize in addition that will bo an lncentlvo to
put forth his best exertions."

AMERICAN SPARROWS
Song Sparrow Above, Streaked With
With Black Stripes Below, White
(Prepared by tho United States Depart
ment of Agriculture )
Thero aro some forty species of
sparrows in North America which nro
helpful rather than harmful and should
bo encouraged rather than discour
aged; at least, this tho opinion of the
United States department of agricul
ture's investigator whoso "Some Com
mon Ulrds Useful To Tho Farmer" has
Just been issued as Farmers' Bulletin
No. C30. Whilo tho English sparrow
is noisy and obtrusive, tho Airarlcan
speclea nro unobtruslvo both in song
and action.
Theso native sparrows, although so
seldom noticed by tho majority of
people, may probably bo found In near
ly overy part of our country, although
not more than a half dozen forms are
gonernlly known in any one locality.
Whilo American sparrows nro noted
seed eaters, they do not by any means
confine themselves to a vegetablo diet.
During tho summer, and especially in
tho breeding season, they eat many in
sects and feed their young largely up
on tho same food. Examination of
stomachs of three species1 the song
Bparrow, chipping sparrow, and field
sparrow shows that about one-third
of tho food consists of insects, com
prising many injurious beetlos, as
snout beotlcs or weevils, and leaf
booties. Many grasshoppers aro eaten.
In enso of tho chipping Bparrow,
theso insects form one-eighth of tho
food. Grasshoppers would seem to bo
rather largo morsols, but tho bird
probably confines itself to the smaller
species; indcod, tho greatest amount
(over 3G per cent) Is eaten in June,
Field Sparrow Crown Chestnut;

Black and Gray; Throat and Brea&t,
Brown; Belly, White.
when the largor species aro still young
and tho smallor most numerous. Be
Hides tho InacctB already monttoncd,
many wasps and bugs aro taken. As a
wholo, tho Insect diet of tho nativo
sparrowa may bo considered bonoSclal.
There aro several records of potato
bug larvae eaten by chipping sparrows.
Tholr vogetablo food la limited al
most oxclualvely to hard seeds. This
might seoin to Indlcato that tho birds
food to aomo cxtont upon grain, but
tho stomachs examined show only ono
kind, oats, and but llttlo of that. Tho
great bulk of tho food la made up of
grass and weed seed, which form al
most tho entire diet during winter, and
tho nmount consumed Is ImmenBO.
In tho agricultural region of tho up

bordora of cultivated flolda.or In
abandoned flolds, wherever tboy can
obtnln a foothold, massos of rank

EAT MANY INSECTS
Black and Brown; Crown Chestnut,
Streaked With Black and Brown.
Tho writer of tho now bulletin has
estimated the amount of weed seed
annually destroyed by thoao birds in
Iowa. On the basis of one-fourth of
an ounce of seed eaten dally by cacb
bird, and an average of ton birds to
each squaro mile, remaining In their
winter range 200 days, thero would bo
n total of 1,750,000 pounds, or 875
tons of weed need consumed in a sin
gle faeason by this ono spocies. Largo
as aro theso figures, they unquestion
ably fall far short of tho reality.
Tho estimate of ten birds to a
square mllo is very conservative, for In
Massachusetts, whero tho food supply
is less than In tho western states, tho
tree sparrow is oven more abundant
than this in winter.
In Iowa several thousand tree spar
rows have been seen within tho space
of a few acres. This estimate, more
over, is for a single species, while,
ns a mater of fact, thero aro at least
a half a dozen ulrds (not all sparrows)
that habitually feed during winter on
theso seeds.
Farther South the treo snarrow is
replaced In winter by tho white
throated sparrow, tho white-crowned
sparrow, tho fox1 sparrow, tho song
sparrow, tho field sparrow, and several
others; so that all over the land a
vast number of these seed caters aro
at work during the colder months, re
ducing next year's crop of worse than
useless plants.
TREATMENT FOR FENCE POST
One of the Best Preservatives lo Coal
Tar Creosote To Determine Tern-
perature of Creosote.
(By n. O T.ONQYI3AK, Colorado Agri
cultural College.)
A small, but satisfactory, tank for
the open-tank method x of treating
fence posts can bo mndo from one of
tho galvanised steel barrels used for
shipping oil and gasoline. Theso
barrols nro 30 inches high by 32 inches
in diameter and by removing ono of
tho heads with a cold chisel, or other
wise, a tank 34 inches deep remains.
This tank is heavy enough to servo
tho purpose of post-treating, and may
bo supported upon two iron cross-bars
built Into tho Bides of a brick or stono
work fireplace. Such n tank will
hold nbout 10 or 12 posts of ordinary
sizo at one time. Ono of tho best
preservatives is coal tar creosote. Tho
posts should be seasoned and tho
creosoto should bo heated to a least
the temperature of boiling water with
tho posts in it. I)y leaving tho posts
in the creosote whilo it cools down, a
good dejjrco of penetration should bo
secured with most of tho quick-growing
80ft woods like Cottonwood, pop
lar, elm, and tho split cedar posts
found on tho market. Tho tempera
ture of tho creosote may bo roughly
determined' by hanging a small tin
can of water In tho tank, and when
tho wator bolls, tho proper tempera
ture has been reached.
Tho process of treatment mny bo
hastened by keeping tho creosote In
tho tank hot nnd removing tho posts
after about ardour's immersion Into an
open barrel or 4 cold creosoto for
nnothor hour, whilo n now batch of
posts Is being heated in tho tank.
RIGHT TRAINING FOR A COLT

Manner While Young He Will
Be Easy to Manage.
Teach tho colt to como at your call,
always treating him with somo lino
grain or a lump of sugar when ho
docs como. Train him to bo haltered,
led about tho place, and tied in stall.
Walk behind and all around him,
speaking to him gently.
Train the colt to bocomo accus
tomed to tho harness while ho Is
small and easily handled, laying tho
Hand on him occasionally. Curry and
brush him up ono side and down tho
other, rubbing him oven to tho hoofs.
Hitch him to tho oldor horse awhile,
lotting him loam by degrees to lead
Handled thus whilo young and tendor,
such a colt walks right off whon put
in harness later on.
Poultry Overlooked.
Thero Is many a farm whero tho
poultry 1b considered an unimportant
offehoot of tho business, but which, If
cultivated right "up to tho handlo,"
as It should bo, would produco more
monoy than all tho cropa raised.
Animal Protein Best.
Animal protein material produces
moro eggs than vcgotablo protein ma

Great French Soldier Made
Name in History.
Duke of Guloc One of the Ablest Mili
tary Leaders of a Day When War
fare Was Recognized Calling
of tho Nobility.
Francis do Lorraine, second duko of
Gulso, who took CalalB from tho Eng
lish, was born 290 years ago (February
17, 1519), and was assassinated by
Poltrot, Fobrunry 24, 1563.
Tho houso of Guise was n branch of
tho ducal family of Lorraine, which
played a conspicuous part In tho reli
gious and civil wars of Franco In tho
sixteenth century. Tho first duko was
Claude, the second was Frnncia, who,
If not tho ablest, was tho noblest of
tho Guises. No other noblo family pos
sessed tho powor and favor of the
Gulsos, who at times could almost pose
as rivals of royalty Itself.,
Their relation with Mary, Queen of
Scots, who was half a Gulso by birth,
opened out for their ambition a broad
nnd clear field when tho little princess
nt flvo years of age wus betrothed to
tho dauphin of France, who wns to
rulo aa Francis II. '
Tho war by which the Gulsoa were
to establish their power and popular
ity for actual services rendered to tho
stato came when France Joined tho
leagued resistance to tho dominating
ambition of tho Emperor Charles V.
Tho German princes, who were op
posed to tho emperor, agreed to let the
king of France hold the "three bish
oprics" Metz, Verdun and To'ul
which opened their gates to the French
army when hostilities had begun.
Emperor Charles V set in motion
a largo forco for tho reduction of Metz.
Ho Journeyed thither in person with
his troops, never doubting the result
of tho siege.
Fraucla of Guise was the strong arm
upon which tho defenders of Metz ro
lled, and ho did not fail them. He op
posed so resolute and effective a re
sistance to the emperor that after
some months of late autumnal opera
tions Charles was obliged to raise the
siege.
Tho emperor marched off, after hav
ing lost 30,000 men, leaving his tents
standing and a great store of muni
tions to fall Into the hands of the
French.
For this exploit Francis of Guise be
came renowned throughout Europe.
The loss of Metz and the failure in
tho attempt to take it proved to the
worn-out emperor that his day was
past, and this formed one of the con
siderations which a few years later
led him to resign all his great lord
ships and titles in Italy, Spain, tho
Netherlands and Austria, and to give
them to his son, Philip, and hla brother
Feidlnand.
Arter his victory at Metz Gulso was
sent to Italy to oppose tho duke of
Alva. At flrat the French arms car
ried all before them and Guise be
lieved that ho could seat himself on
tho throne of Naples, to which he laid
claim of inheritance. But ho was op
posed and outgeneraled by the duke of
Alva, and driven back to Rome,
whence ho wns recalled to France be
cause of the disaster of St. Quentin,
which laid Paris itself open to assault.
Returning with his veterans, instead
of wasting time in futile operations, ho
made a Bwlft and sudden turn and as
saulted and captured Calais, which
had beon held for more than two cen
turies by tho English, who now Anally
wore swept off the soil of France. This
brilliant blow secured tho ascendancy
of the houso of Guise.
Soon after Francis II came to tho
throno and Guise now was in posses
sion of the government, but the sickly
king did not long survive and Gulso
lost his ascendancy.
