From the American Agricultural
That the toad is beneficial 70 the farmer,
and particularly to the gardener, is adj
mitted by every one who has observed it's
habits Additional facts have been Sc
cured by recent observations "a the Massa-
chusetts experiment station which show

posed of insects and spiders beneficial or

of insects and other animals derectly in
furious TO cultivated crops or In other
WAYS obnOx ious TO man. The toad feeds
on worms saalls. SOW bugs. common
greenhouse pests and the many legged
worms which damage greenhouse and
garden plots. It feeds to some extent on
grasshoppers ana crickets ana destroys
large numbers Of ants. II consumes
considerable numbers of May beetles, rose
chascrs, click beetles or adults Of the
Wrireworm, potato beetles and cucumber
beetles IL is a prime destroyer OF cut
worms and army worms
70 an agricultursts the toad renders
conauicuous service but the gardeners and
greenhouse owners may make this "ni-
mai of especial value. Every gardener
should aim to keep colony OF toads
among his growing crops, and the prae-
tice OF collecting and transferring them
to the gardens is "A commendabe one.
while the sense of locality Is strong In
the toad. and Il Will often return over
considerable distances TO It's original
haunts. vet It may be induced 10 remain
In new quarters IL there is a sufflcient
food supply Many farmers provide toads
with artificial shelters made by digging
shallow holes In the ground and partially
covering them with a bit Of board or fat
stone. In such places toads VIII otten
remain for many days, sallyins forth at
night to seek food.
The enemies of the toad are HAWKS,
owls. and. worst of ali, small boys, who
stone and kin many Of them. Dr. 9. +.
Hodge states that he found 200 dead or
wounded toads in a single day on the
shores OF a small pond on the grounds
Of clark University The loud cry Of the
toad as spawning time readily betrays
rs presence, and small boys, and some
times those of a larger growth. gravitate
toward the pools as naturally as 10 the
loads themselves. There have been eX-
cellent laws enacted TO protect insectivor-
Gus birds. Why should there not be as
stringent legislation against the destrnc-
ton of toads?
