How we should miss the words in
Wordsworth's poetry! Mr.. Chapman
tells us that over 500 references to
birds and bird life are found In the
plays of Shakespeare DO you remem-
Der that wonderful line of Longfei-
lows that we who live in the south
can so appreciate:
Circles and sails afolt. on pinions ma
jestic, the vulture."
We have but to skim through our
literature to find how often
Tanager, robin, and sparrow,
Grosbeak, warbler and wren
The children of gladness gather
not only in clearing and grove and fen,
but in the pages of our poets.
Besides these appeals to the ina gina
tion and hearts of men, the birds play
an important part in the practical side
OF life. Few realize the enormous value
of birds to agriculture. Many birds are
insectivorous and the number of insects
consumed annually is beyond calcula-
ton. The number of insects is so vast
and they require so great a quantity
of vegetation, that the existence of
every green thing would be threatened
agents. Each family of birds plays
its part. The thrush, sparrows, wrens
and larks take charge of the surface
of the earth, the warblers, vireos and
creepers scan every part of the tree
trunk, branches and leaves; swallows
and night hawks patrol the air, all
wage warfare on the enemies of vege-
tatfon. OF course there are some birds
that do harm. Mr.. Henshaw of the
biographical survey department says:
Few birds are VIII oily beneficial and
that there are a very few among the
harmful ones that have no redeeming
traits that do not occasionally do good.
Most birds most of the time are bene-
fetal, few most of the time are
injurious"
But the time Is past when the prac-
teal farmer can afford to ignore the
relation of birds to agriculture. With
the increased agricultural pursuits new
pests are introduced, as San Jose scale
boil weevil and others, and all natures
these. In the case of the boil weevil
will just mention the fact that though
the birds cannot stay its progress, nor
exterminate it, yet the government has
sent out bulletins showing the farm
ers what a great aid the birds are
In their fight against this serious men,
ace to their crops The list of helpers
is long, but the greatest destruction
of wcevps in summer is wrought by
the swallows and orioles, and in the
winter by the blackbrds and meadow
larks.

IRON PRODUCTION
SLIGHTLY LOWER

| Cleveland, Ohio. May 4.-(Special.)-
say:
Owing to prompt response by tele-
graph of pig iron manufacturers the
statistics of production for the past
month are available at an unusually
early date. The reports give the news
which will be generally welcome in
the trade and will probably have a
steadyng effect that the curtailment
has started in earnest, but the actual
figures do not show a very large reduc-
ton of output, as number OF stacks
were not blown out until the last
week in April.
The production for April was 2,454,-
256 tons, compared with 2,5SS,736 In
march. The average daily production
was s1.SOs tons in April compared with
S3,50S tons in March.
OF the 23 furnaces blown out in
April 13 were Of ste 81 companies max
ing iron for their own use, while of
these blown in five were merchant ana
enc non merchant. making net loss
of II. The pig iron market shows
little life, although an consumers real
ize that production is being decreased
they are showing little more inter-
est.
| The south's offers to buy 1000 tons
at $11.5O, Birmingham, for No. 2 were
rejected and $12 seems to be the usual
price for strictly Alabama iron.
| 1t is known, however, that at least
one or two companies will shade the
1919 price. and it seems probable that
they will be aggressive in competing
on business with the north.
Cast iron pipe interests have taken
about 5000 tons additional. In struc-
tural material some 10000 tons are
now pending in the country, but con-
tracts are very slowly closed.
Competition among erectors is keen
Bids are about to be taken on about
$4,000 tons for lofts and other build
ings In New York city.
