The biological survey OF the agri.
cultural department at Washington
has published some interesting data
relative to the robins bill of fare
which ought to convince the horticul-
turist and agriculturist, II they need
further persuasion, that the robin is
one of the best friends they have. From
number Of stomachs examined II
was found that the food OF the robin
consisted OF 43.7S per cent of insects,
wild fruit 1923 per cent, cultivated
fruit III per cent, miscellaneous veg
etable food 6.22 per cent. OF the In
sects, beetles Of various kinds consti-
tuted 10 per cent reaching In the
month OF May a maximum Of 80 per
cent. all varieties devoured being
more or less harmful. Grasshoppers
and crickets constituted 0 per cent for
the year and rose to 30 per cent In
August The remaining IL per cent OF
insect food Of the robin consisted OF
moths. butterflies, bees, wasps. ants,
bugs. etc. The stomach of one robin
contained forty army worms. while
another contained 125 March dies.

The truest and most farsighted
philanthrophy, is not that which gives
aid to unfortunates for the time be-
Ing. but which helps them to help
themselves and thus makes them free
from the need OF further assistance.

Orchard owners may be interested
In knowing that I'm several cases where
orchard trees have been destroyed by
fire or I'm other ways the courts have
held that orchard trees are worth %
cents each at the end Of the first year
after setting, 90 cents at the end OF
the second. and every year thereafter
80 cents more than their value the pre-
ceding year. Thus at the end OF ten
yearssa fruit tree would be worth
$3.50. An acre OF eighty trees would
be valued at $40 from the standpoint
Of the trees alone.

work at two years old. which will en-
able the owner to get pay for their

HEADACHES
AND DIZZINESS
This Rockford Woman Was
Discouraged but tbe Tonic
Treatment Cured Her.

The first thing to do in nervous debli-
ity is to stop the cause of the trouble, if
possible, whether it is irregular living,
Worry, or whatever it may be. Then
the nerves must be given special nour-
ishment and the blood must be kept
pure and rich This Is the mission OF
DR.. Williams Pink Pills and this is
why the pills have been used with such
great success in nervous troubles that
did not yield to ordinary methods OF
treatment.
Mrs. Frances D. Holmes, of No. 3l6
South H0rsm8n street. Rockford, HI,
who was cured by this remedy, says;
Il was a great sufferer for over two
years with nervous spells and sick head
aches. Inever felt well after the birth

ally grew worse and more and more dis

any better.
II was treated by our doctor for over
year but finally gave up his medicines
and began taking DR.. Williams Pink
Pills. When l had taken them for a
while began to feel better and seemed
to be getting stronger. The dizzy spells
and headaches we're less frequent and
my nerves became steady. L took sew
eral boxes and was entirely cured. l

DR.. Williams Pink Pills have done for
me and will praise them TO everyone
suffering as did.
The pills contain no morphine, oplate.
narcotic nor anything TO cause drug
habit. They do not act on the bowels
but make new blood and strengthen the
nerves. If you want good health you
must have good blood.
Thin blood means starved nerves,
weakened digestion, functional disor-
ders, headaches, possibly neuralgia, scia-
tea and even partial paralysis. DR..
Williams Pink Pills build up the blood

disease. They are for men and women,
young and old. They are sold by all
