While birds are generally conceded to

would often destroy entire rops, in re-
turn for the liStle seed and fruit he is
reputed 20 require, some experiments
made in Iowa on a cherry farm appear
to indicate that the birds appetite for
cherries is amazingly large. The trees
on which the tests were conducted were
enveloped in a light weight block fish
netting, with openings too small for
birds to get through. The covered trees
yielded fully 60 per cent. more fruit
than the unprotected trees, and a repe-
tition Of the experiment in the following
year with the protection on the other
trees practically confirmed this result.

HOLBROOK GETS FIFTH
INTEREST IN A NINE
Judge Morrow Decides That He
Earned That Interest for NegoH-
atiu0 Transfer of PROPERTY.

According to a decision rendered
yesterday by United States Circuit
Judge Morrow, Charles II. Holbrook
is entitled to receive a one-fifth i'm
terest in the Young America mine in
Sierra County, owned by David C.
Green, S. NJ. Green, Otto Mears and
T. L. Wiswall.
Holbrook alleged in his complaint
that on April %, 1896, he entered into
a contract with the defendants where
by he was to receive a fifth interest
in the mine if he succeeded in nego-
tiating it's purchase for them. He al
legged also that the defendants were
willing to pay $4,000 for the mine
and that by reason of his services he
enabled them to secure the property
for s1S.1oO. He alleged further that
the defendants secretly purchased the
mine for the last named sum, and that
they refused to transfer to him the
one-ffth interest promised him as his
commission.
Judge Morrow decided that the
averments of the complaint had been
proved and rendered judgment for
Holbrook.
