ton was to handle the international
aviation meet in case that event came to
Washington.
The promoters afterward decided to es-
tablish general park and race track on
the fiat space there with track suitable
for motor and horse racing. and with a
field for aviation meets If any were held.
Overtures have been made to the Aero
Scientific Club here giving 1t the use
of the ground for experimental purposes.
1t Is announced by the organizers that
an option has been taken on between
four and six hundred acres OF land In
GLIDING the tract that was used as an
aviation training ground by the govern
ment. Arrangements have bee n made to
put In half mile straightaway track as
preliminary testing stretch for flying
machines and the club is to be given the
use of a house for tools and sneltering
machines.
The offer has been accepted by the club
and as soon as one OF the several ma
chimes that are building in Washington
are ready for trail the ground will be
used. Meantime the Aero Scientific Club
is negotiating for an engine, the use of
which will be given successfully to the
members of the club who want to try out

Supply Wild Food for Them
and Save Your Crops.
GOVERNMENT TELLS HOW
Feathered Creation Useful in De-
stroying Weeds and Bugs.
BERRIES THAT THEY WILL EAT
Easy Enough to Cultivate a Patch
of Things That Will Be in Fruit
Throughout Season.

Wild birds in rural places whence they
have not been exiled by the sparrow play
havoc with small fruit growers. Espe-
cially in the case of cherries around
Washington. it is usually race be-
tween the grower and the catbirds as to
which beats out in gathering the crop.
The catbird is an Industrious fowl, and
combines business with pleasure in pick
ing cherries. He usually leaves the sub
urbanite at the post.
Government Shows Way.
The same is true of the robins to a
less extent.
Except the sapsucker, all birds COM
mon to this vicinity seem to take a fiend-
ish pleasure In making small home or
chard Of fruitless effort. This being the
case, the Department of Agriculture has
come to the rescue and issued paper
by w. L. McAtee Of the biological sur
vey telling how one can have birds and
fruit, too.
He points out that birds are essential
to keeping up the natural balance in
weed and insect life. Birds are large
insect eaters. as proven by analysis OF
their stomachs. They do immense good
also by destroying weed seed.
At the same time, when a farmer or a
householder sees a favorite fruit tree
stripped before he has a chance at 1t
the impulse is to declare all birds a
condemned nuisance and start war on
them.
