: What the Birds ACCOMPLISH.

The swallow, swift, and uighthawk are tho
guardians of the atm osphere. They check
she increase Of Insects that otherwise would
overload it. s7 Wood peckers, crecpers and
chicksdees are the guardians of thetrunks of
trees. Marbles and Ay.esters protect the
foliage. Black birds, crows. and thrushes
protect the surface OF the soil. Snipn and
Woodcock protect the soil under the surface
Each tribe has its own respective duty to per-
form in the economy of nature and it is an
undoubted fact that if the birds were all swept
of the face of the earth, man could not live
upon it; vegetation would Wither aud die
insects would become SO gnumeFous that no
living thing could Withstand their attacks
Tho wholesale destruction occasoncd by
erasshoppers, which have lately devastated
the West is undoubtedly caused by the thin.
ming out Of birds, such as grouse. prairie
hens, etc.. (which feed upon them The great
and inestimable service dono to tho far mer,
gardener and florist by the birds, is only be-
coming known from sad experience Spare
the birds and save your fruit; the little corn
and the fruit taken by them is more than CON-
pensa.ed by the quantities of tho noxious in
