An Ingenious Scarecrow.
A writer In the Farm and Fireside
tails of one of the most effective plans
for keeping birds from cherries and
other tree and garden fruits. "Take
two or three two-pound Manila paper
bags, dip them In linseed oil to make
them waterproof, place half n dozen
peas In each, blow them up lull of air
and tie up the open end. Fasten these
bags In the trees, two or three to each
tree, or to stakes In berry fields with
bits of stout twine about six Inches
long. The wind, blowing the bags
•bout, will rattle the peas inside them,
and the unaccustomed objects and the
rattling noise will keep the birds out
of every tree or bed so decorated and
do It effectively."
Both Important.
"One of the most important things In
life, my sou." said the father, "is to
know when to grasp an opportunity."
"And another," said the wise son.
