Women Who Wear Birds
Are Not Conservationists,
Says Curator Chapman.

ST. PAUL, Sept. ia bird on a
woman's hat means that friend
and protector of the trees and for,
ests of the United States has been
killed Women who wear birds,
therefore, are not conservatiOnists.
This argument was advanced to-
day at the national conservation
congress by Frank M. Chapman,
curator of birds in the American
Museum of Natural History.
Insects cost loss to our for
estry of $1O0,0OO.OOO a year. Forty
one species of insect infest the
locust, 80 the elm, los the birch,
165 the pine, 40 the hickory, 1855
the willow and over 500 infest the
oak. In the front rank of the foes
of insects stand the birds.
'The biological survey of the
United States has shown that the
stomach of single cedar bird con-
tanned 100 canker worms, of a
cuckoo $50 tent caterpillars, of a
chickadee 454 plant lice, of flicker
1000 chinch bugs, of a scarlet tana-
ger $50 gypsy moth caterpillars. A
tanager eats moth caterpillars at
the rate of 2100 an hour. A Mary
land yellow throat ate $500 plant
lice in 40 minutes.

the birds is woman.
