KET SKATERS SOME
IDEALS ABOUT BIRDS
THE GOOD OF BIRDS DOUBTED =
AFTER YEARS OF STUDY MEX
lco SCIENTIST HAS coNcLuDs
ED FEATHERY ONES KILL
WRONG BUGS
Lecture Delivered In 81. Louis be-
fore Academy Of sr;e.>s-Dces Not
Endorse the slaughter Of Birds
for Hats.

That birds are not an economic
factor in farming or fruit growing
was the declaration of James New
ton Basket Of this city Monday
night before the st. Louis Academy
Of Science.
The speaker said that after years
Of personal observation he found
birds did not deserve bhe long qepu-
tation they have enjoyed aus insect de
stroyers.
Those forms OF insect life which
are mcst destructive to crops are the
very ones which fail to attract the
appetite of the feathered ones, said
the speaker.
He said as matter of personal OBJ
seryation he found the large variety
Of garden spiders were more effica-
caous as insect destroyers than many
varieties of birds long believed to be
the bogies of the bugs.
Mr.. Basket called attention TO the
fallacy OF many stordes recently
printed in the East which were de-
signed to show that were it not for
the desEacttion OF insects by birds
the whole earth would come to
grief because of am overflow of in
sects. He said If anything could
be added to hasten such an imag
mary earth wreck 1T would be the de-
struction to plant life by the birds
themselves.
However, the speaker did not in
dorse the slaughter of birds, which,
ne said, should be looked upon
from am aesthetic standpoint and be
classed with the flowers.
In a few statements MIR. Basket&
ruined the reputation OF The robin
for eating June bugs and other
beetles which after making meal on
the garden truck knock out many
hours Of pastime In the sittingroom
at night humping about the cell
ings. He said that lantern close
to a tub OF water sprinkled with a
little kerosene placed In the field
ct night would lure more beetles ITO
death tiitm many flocks Of robins
busy for months.
In an argument which followed the
talk 1t developed that the snake is
one of the best friends of the farm
er, as he gets rid of more insects
than all the birds combined. The
frog and the lizard come next In
value as insect destroyens.

very favorable for fruit It was
the sort OF weather we have been
