More Harm the Sparrows Do.-Many
charges have been preferred against the Eng

from Maryland is that they are seriously in
juring the brick churches in the rural districts.
The walls of many of these churches are COW
cred with ivy, and the birds have their nests
in the thick growth of the vine. The injury
they do is in pecking the mortar from between
the bricks. Where thereare oyster-shell roads,
or other surface supply of lime and gravel
the birds will not modest the mortar joints, but
in default of more easily obtained material.
they get lime for egg-shell construction and
gravel for digestive purposes from the mortar.
They peck the material from third to two
thirds of the thickness of the outer course of
bricks, weakening tue structure and permitting
the weather" to continue the work of des-
truction. How to protect the churches with
out destroying their beautiful clothing of ivy
is a problem.
