PROTECT CROPS BY FEEDING BIRDS.
Farmers Should Remember the Birds During
the Cold Bleak Days of Winter.

The best method of protecting crops
is to feed the birds during the winter.
In fact, the time has come for COM
plete revolution in the treatment of
birds and other so-called ''game" on
the part of the farmer. The main snb.
ject of the farmers institute should be
the protection of all birds that destroy
farm pests, and this protection should
be extended to the owl and the hawk,
as we'll as to those animals which keep
rabbits in check. The farmer looses
but few chickens by the hawk as com
pared with those appropriated by cats,
yet he destroys one and pets the other.
A single dog in a community will do
more damage to sheep in one night
than all the wild animals in a year.
The song birds that are said to be
driven away by the English sparrow
would return if the hawk and owl were
unmolested, from the fact that large
majority of birds migrate, the sparrow
remaining as food for the carniverous
birds, but the widest sparrow is
sufficiently wise to remain close to the
haunts of men, where he Is safe from
his enemies. But little damage can be
done the farmers by hawks, crows and
evils during the cold season, while in
summer they can secure food in abund
ance elsewhere.
