acre le not an tiatteual number in
meadows favorable to their habite,
while in "mouse yeare" the number
has been eetimated at lima/ands to

Mouse plagues, disastrous as they
are locally, are et minor importmuce

a writer in an Ola Country attper.
Even 48 tew as tell meadow mice to

year. This number, on the 65,000,-
000 ACIvegi of hay raised in the thirty-
taight Ladled States would cause a
loss of over 3,000,00u tone of hay a
year, or Li money loss of some $30,-

The number of young in a litter

numbers or males and females, and

BEMEMBERED BIS DOG.
Aged Blind elan Took Good Care of
lox Terrier.
The love of an aged blind man
for the dog that guided his hesitant
steps during the last ten years of his
lonely life Is illustrated by the will of
Joseph Abdu, filed recently for pro-
bate. "It Is my desire," wrote the
testator, a retired newsdealer, "that
my dog be sent to a good home and
not be given to anybody on the
bloek." The old man's wish has been
disregarded, however, it was learned,
and after his death a policeman pre-
sented the animal, a fox terrier nam-
ed Nellie, to a woman in the house
next door.
Another feature of the will, execut-
ed Sept. 7, 1921, is an offer of $50
"to the person who accompanies toy
body to my grave and arranges fur
my proper burial in my own plot."
The residue of the $1,828 estate
Passes to St. Bartholomew's Church,
Fifty-nrst street and Park avenue,
New York, where Abdul was a fre-
quent worshipper. Neighbors said
that the old man lived alone with the
dog in two squalid rear rooms. Al-
though he had been unable to work
for the last eve years, they declared
he always had money enough for all
necessaries,
Itfia Abram a native of France,
never left home without Nellie, and
when the weather was bad he re-
mained indoors rather than subject
the animal to discomfort. He bought
an lee -box, the neighbors Said, for the
sole purpose of keeping the dog's
meat fresh,
England's Toll Gates.
There are still eighty-eight toll
bridges and fifty-five toll roads In
England. In the year 1810 five toll
bridges across the Thames were de-
clared free. A vehicle crossing Dun-
ham Bridge on the main Linceln road
must still pay 2s. for the privilege.
At Swinfard Bridge, on the Oxford
road, a farthing is charged for every
calf, swine, sheep, or lamb driven
across. Visiturs to Bournemouth
know of the charges made at Tuck -
ten Bridge, where mother must pay
a penny to take the pram across. The
motorist has to pay twopence. The
canny Scot is less willing to tolerate
these relics of the past. Anyway onis
one road toll is levied in Scotland- -
at Cannel Bridgo, Loch Etive, The
charge Is stiff, however -10s. per ca.r,

To stop suddenly places a strain
