how Way to Exterminate Sparrows.
One of the slickcst men I ever saw was
a young follow out west who was selling
baking powder and was up to all (lodges
to advertise his goods. llo buppencd to
strike one little town in which English
sparrows were a great nuisance and the
authorities had offered u bounty on spur-
row bonds. The baking powder man saw
a golden opportunity to give his goods is
big reputation and offered to exterminate
all of the sparrows in town inside of two
weeks. lite proposition was gladly accept-
ed, so he began his work. He selected a
large vacant lot as the scene of his opera
tions, and every evening would go out
there with several bushels of corn, which
be fed to tho sparrows until they began to
get acquainted with him and came to the
lot in bigger droves every day.
In the meantime be had sent east and
bought a barrel of empty capsules, which
be filled with the baking powder, and then
put suit on the outside of them. thn he
saw that all of tho sparrows in town were
coming to the feed ground, be had a large
tank of water placed there and was ready
for the grand climax. On this eventful
evening he took his suited (mpsulcs of bak-
ing powder to the lot instead of corn and
threw them out to the unsuspecting spar-
rows. Of course the suit made the birds
thirsty, and they immediately flow to the
water took and drunk, and the result was
smoothing awful. The water incited tho
capsules and made the baking powder rise.
The poor little birds tried to stay on the
ground, but the baking powder was too
strong and compelled them to rise straight
up into the air and finally popped them
open. The spectators oonld.pininly hour
the sparrows pop and said that it sounded
like the poppingof a paper bug. It ruined
popped spmrou'e all night, and the next
day not a. single live one was visible. It is
needless to any that there is only one brand
of baking powder for sale in that town.—
