First American Paper MakIns.


The first attempt to manufacture
naper in the United States was maoe
In 1890 by William Rittenhouse and
William Bradford, who established
paper mill at Roxborough, near Ph1ia'
delphia. The paper was made wholly
of linen rags. In 1910 William de Wers
erected O. second mill in Germantown,
and a third, which was erected IN lIlA
on the Chester creek, furnished Ben,
iamin Franklin with paper. By 1917
the number of paper mills in the Uni
ted States was estimated at lS5, near
ly every state possessing one OF
more. In 1890 there were nearly 1oo OF
these mills, manufacturing printing
writing and wrapping paper, with .
eanital of S97,O0O00o. The manufac
ture of straw pulp for paper manufac
turing was introduced in 1854, and O
wood pulp in 1857, The census OF 1So'

WHAT IS A ROBIN?
Is it Game Bird, or Valuable InsectivOrOus
Bird?-To Kill or to Protect, that
is the Question.

Is the robin game bird that should be
killed and eaten. or is it a valuable insec-
| tivorous bird that should be protected at
| all seasons?
This is question which the next gen.
eral assembly will have to solve, and our
readers are asked to consider it's import
ance in an agricultural way.
DR.. 7. S. Palmer, in charge of the game
conservation division of the biological
survey of the department of agriculture,
in answer to inquiries from Frank NJ Mil
| Ter, of the Louisiana Game Commission,
quotes an authority who gives the results
of his observations at Abbeville, La,
under date of February of this year, as
follows:
Il collected IL robins near here today
and got the following results from an
examination of their gizzards: had eaten
nothing but insects; the other four had
taken respectively IS, 80, SIS and per
cent of insects and other invertebrates.
The insects include grasshoppers, bugs,
beetles, beetle larvae (Wire worms and
others) caterpillars, including cutworms.
On the basis of the Is stomachs have
examined this month, consider the robin
essentially an inseetivorous bird in Lou
isiana in February.
The shooting of so beneficial a bird
should by no means be allowed
The same authority above quoted under
date of Feb IL, from Long Bridge, La,
wrote Dr. Palmer:
Il shot six robins today; 4 in a hack
berry tree and on the ground. Three of
these six birds had eaten insects, includ-
ing larvae of crane flies which are some
times known as leather jackets These
| larvae feed on the roots or grasses, in
cluding grain crops and other plants. and
are sometimes quite Injurious Each OF
the three birds had eaten one or more
specimens of a leaf beetle, a plant feeder
and injurious.
These facts bearing the stamp of the
federal government through a conserva-
tion worker as widely known as DR.. Pal
mer are entitled to serious consideration
by the farmers and planters of the state.
