PROTECT THE BIRDS.
Farmers Annually Lose Sum Large. Than Capitalization of all the
 National Banks.

New York, Oct. 31-Because of the decrease in birds. the United States is losing yearly without protest sum larger than the capitalization of all the national banks in the country, was the statement made by President William Butcher of the National Association of Audubon societies. at the annual meeting of the association here.
 The public, declared MT. Butcher placidly allows agriculture crops valued at sS00,000,O to be annually destroyed by insects, which destruc- tion is entirely due to the rapid de crease in the numebr of insectiverous birds in the country.
 If a million or more dollars are lost through the management of bank or other fduciary institution" he said, Tit creates a wave of protest through out the entire country. yet a yearly loss equal to the entire capitalization of the national banks of the country creates no comment whatever, simply because the public do not realize what Is going on"
 Mir Butcher said that the associa- tion was in position to do good work along the line of the protection of birds but that in order to success fully carry on it's work it should have larger endowment fund and far larger membership.

INCREASE HoMEsEEkER RATES.
The Excursions to the West Will Not
 bc Discontinued by the


 Chicago, Oct 31.--At a meeting in Chicago Tuesday representatives of the larger railway systems agreed not to abandon the homeseeksrs' excur. sions to the west. Since the passage of the two-cent fare laws in many of the western states there had been talk of discontinuing the low homeseeker rates. For three days the general passenger agents of the larger systems have been in conference here consider ing the question. There was minority opinion that the rates should be wiped out and regular tariff charged to all. Reports of the Union Pacific, Burling. ton, Milwaukee & St. Paul, North. western and Rock Island said that un. der no circumstances would they agree to abandon these rates, as they had resulted in building the west. It was agreed, however, that the homeseek- CTS rates be slightly advanced after January 1. The maximum advance will be $5 on each round trip ticket. To Illustrate. the round trip home seekers fare, Chicago to Texas and other southwestern states, will go from s25 to s30; to Wichita, Kan, from s20.65 to 322.25 and to Denver from s25 to $3215. It is planned to advance the s33 one way California rate in the spring to S38.
