PROTECTING THE BIRDS.
England II Far Ahead OF Anne rica A
Preventing Ravages ON the
SoaGsters.

The protection Of birds has been
carried SO far in England that fruit
growers and farmers are complaining
bitterly of the ravages of thrushes,
blackbirds and bullfinches. These
winged beauties work great mischief
in gardens and orchards, says the New
York Tribune.
American readers Of British books
recall with pleasure vivid descriptions
of the diversion of shooting Young
rocks in the early spring with short
range, small-bore rifles, and Of the
succulence of the young rock pies
cooked by experts But it now appears
that the English rocks have not been
thinned out with sufficient thorough
Eess. and these birds do harm to w.
rious farm crops.
East of the Mississippi in most of the
states north of the Potomac and the
Ohio the protection of birds of every
kind has been much UNDERGONE. We
have no rocks or ravens here, but it is
certain we don't protect our winged
friends a. We ought to protect them.

HAY-STACKING BY MACHINERY
Contrixunces In Use In the Northwest
That Would Surprise an East
ern Farmer.

In the northwestern states, where
forage crops are cultivated for export,
the stacking and baling of hay is done
largely by machinery, and the number
of hands required to care for the great
crops that are grown is relatively much
smaller than in parts of the country
where the size of the fields and the
amount of the crop would not Justify
the investment of a large sum of money
in plant, says the New York Sun.
There are a dozen or more styles of
stackers in common use, some of them
arranged with mast on which boom
is rugged, carrying fork. This fork,
a huge affair which would pick up two
or three eastern hay cocks at one mo-
ton, takes the hay from the wagon
racks, and swings ii up to the great
stack in which it is to be stored.
One mast and boom stacker carries
a six-tined fork. The mast is held in
place by guy ropes from the top. The
foot of the mast rests on a sled with
runners, which may be staked to the
ground to hold it firm. The fork is

the work of a score of men.
Another form of this stacker has a
grapple fork, similar to the dredges
used in submarine excavation, which
runs a trolley wire, much like those
made familiar to New Workers by the
arrangements for handling the mate
rial excavated from the subway.
Another form of stacker looks like
a derrick from the oil fields, with a
boom balanced on top. The advantage
of this form is that no guy ropes are
necessary, stakes at the base of the
derrick poles holding it firm while in
operation.
Some of these derricks are mount
ed on sled runners, and some on wheels.
which are blocked when the machine

scheme is derrick with a revolving
pole.
The hay racks in which material Is
brought to feed these great machines
are longer. wider and deeper than those
in use in the east, but are built ON
lines much the same.
