Birds Are Friends Of the Farmer

A feature of the work at the Maryland
Agricultural College, which was begun
last year aud is being continued at this
session, is series of lectures on topics
connected with agriculture by lecturers
not on the college staff. Among them
was recent one by Prof. F. E. L. Beal,
of the United States Biological Survey,
on.economic orthodoxy.
Prof Beal claims that nearly all birds,
exclusive of English sparrows and some
hawks, are more useful than injurious
and, therefore, should be encouraged. In
support of his view he states that he has
examined the contents of many thousand
bird stomachs and found those contents
to be composed almost entirely of weed
seeds, insects and small animals injurious
to man such as the field mouse and the
common house mouse. Some of the
figures given in this connection are as
follows:
From the stomach of one king bird (bee
martin) were taken 40 rose bugs.
From a nighthawk were taken 1900
ants. and from another 81 May beetles.
Five thousand ants were found in the
stomach of a flicker, and 247 fall we'll
worms in the stomach of robin.
In the stomach of one bird were found
60, 900 small weed seeds.

Mighty words of wisdom flow,
