CROW, THE FARMERS
- FRIEND. ~s.~ .E.s T.. .sss4ss. :

If I were to say that the crow is q
helping hand about the farm. many
farmers might think I lived in the
city, writes William L. Finley in
Success Magazine Many might
prefer to be without such help. The
crow has q reputation as black az bis
coat. He has been charged with caus-
ing great injury to the corn crops,
stealing fruit, robbing nests OF
poultry, and eating young bros.
To determine the real economic
status OF the crow. the scientists of
the. Biological Survey examined nearly
q thousand stomachs of crows killed in
every month Of the year and through
out the country: The crow was
proven guilty Of these charges, but it
was: also shown that most of the corn
that he had eaten was waste corn and
the part destroyed while growing was
only three per cent OF the total food.
The destruction of fruit and eggs was
only trivial, while on the other hand
the amount of harmful insects and
mice eaten rendered the final verdict
in favor Of the crow. It was proven
beyond doubt that he was OF more
real economic value than harm.

before the committee on expenditures
in the interior department, which is
investigating the Indian administra-

Representative Ferris of Oklahoma,
member of the committee, made a
suggestion in the hearing which failed
to find sympathy with Representative
Graham of Illinois, the chairman. Mr..
Ferris gave it as his belief that the
crux of the situation was the necessi-
ty for the repeal of the Clapp amend

should be referred to the committee
on Indian affairs, with a recommends
ton for legislation providing for the
repeal of the Clapp law, which per-

WHlTEE ARTH PROBESTARTEO
Alleged Frauds Practiced on Indians
Explained to Committee.

Alleged frauds practiced upon the
Chippewa Indians of the White Earth
reservation in Minnesota by whites,
who have secured their lands, were
detailed before the house committee
on interior department expenditures
by w. c. Burch of the department of
justice, in answer to charges of mis-
use of money in connection with gov
eminent investigation of those mat
tiers. Numerous suits growing out of
these frauds are pending in the feder-
al courts in Minnesota.
Mr.. Burch declared that the most
valuable pine land on the reservation
had been allotted to the mixed bloods
who are legally competent to dispose
of it. He said that "speculators and
grafters" rushed in and took land con-
veyances Unfortunately from chill

HORNE, statistlcan of the Union Stock

Until recently all markets were full
Of fat cattle. Now the supply situa-
ton shows radical change. Ohio.

eastern points are not getting enough
good cattle to supply their local neeos.
The character of receipts at Mis-.

supply of fat cattle has been cleaned
up: which. leaves Chicago about the
only place on tho market map of the

adequate selection, and that is likely
to be the case for long time to come.

The Jewish Literary Society Of
Houston has proclaimed to the world
it's success by defeating it's building,
which will be used for the purposes
of the organization until it shall be-
come inadequate by reason OF the
growth of the society. In it's dedica-
ton the Jewish people of Houston have
taken great step forward in the care
and thought of the young men and
women of the community. The organi-
zation is founded upon a solid base, be-
cause culture and elevation OF its mem
bers is work which will win recruits
and make the whole a safe organiza-
ton. 1t is true that the organization
in making itself attractive to all, in
dulges in some entertainment for the
members and forms a social back
ground, and it is true that if some
times happens that the two do not har-
monte, but the Houston organization
is proving the exception. Just enough
socially to keep the interest of large
membership and increaso the desire for
the other branches and of the real
work of the society. 1t has required
work to place the society where it now
stands, and the results bear testimony
to unhagging interest and zeal upon
he.party of individual members. many

first meeting where the object of the so.
cety was outlined, and then made
possible carrying out the idea Of the
first meeting Quickly it received sup
port and public favor, and gradually,
by its aims, its purposes and its work,
won recognition as a factor in the
Jewish life of the community. While
it is not we'll to at all times give credit
for individual work, yet when the story
of the society is reviewed, when from
it's inception one figure doomed large
in activity and increasing labor, when
one person will put aside all desires
and pleasures and postpone business
engagements and make many sacri-
fees, then indeed should we give credit.
Through all the story of the society,
it's organization, its work, its achieve
ments, it's successes, to the dedication
of the building looms the figure of S.
]. Westheimer. A man of family, with
large business interests and other du-
ties which demand his time, with no
good, he entered heart and soul in the
labor of giving to the young men and
women of Houston an organization
that is worthy of the rank and station
it occupies. Still active, he should in
deed reap a harvest of pleasure in the
result Of his work Others, too, de-
serve credit because as associates and
as co-workers they labored with the
same goal in view, knowing full well
the needs of such an organization and
all DESTROYS of building the society
upon a solid basis Now that the build
ing is completed, the real purpose of
the organization must again become
the sole labor of the membership. No
longer troubled with the building
movement, efforts must be concen-
trated for carrying out the work and
ideals of the society. Conceded to be
a power for good in elevating and
equalizing a people, in instilling a de-
sire for knowledge and through its
own iahors teaching and illustrating
the beauty Of culture, it can reach
higher stations in the development of
such ideals. While the membership
is now representative of the COM
munity, ii should on its merit, by
reason Of actual accomplishments, have
the support of united citizenship.

The Country Rabbits Column.

Among the editorial remarks OF L
some of our contemporaries, we find q
the following curtain lecture: zone I
of the commonest mistakes of public 7
speakers, especially ministers, is to OBJ {
trude their personality too persistantly t
upon the public. 1t is manifestation t
of conceit and egotism that should be @
avoided" Being imbued with a keen q
sense of solidarity, we bow our heads
in reverent submission to this rebuke v
of the ministry. We venture, however, q
to say, that the Introductory sentence +
of the above preachment could have G
read as we'll: "One of the commonest i
mistakes Of public writer's, especially a
editors, ETC., ETC." q
The same contemporary in report
ing an anti-semite riot in Massachu-
sets gives the following description
of the Tashlich ceremony. The cong
regation was engaged in the New
Years ceremony of washing away of
sins beside brook During the early
part of the ceremony there had been
Interruptions from men and boys, who
had assembled nearby, but it was not
until all the Jews were kneeling in
prayer that the real attack began"
We would earnestly request the Cen
trail Conference of American Rabbis
that in the future they send their en-
tightening account of the meaning of
the Jewish holidays and the customs
connected there with not only to the
to the general press, but also to some c
of our Jewish papers.
The Jewish Voice in it's splendid
festive number rightly complained of
the unwilingness of Jewish firms to g
advertise through the medium of it's ,
columns. We suppose that the expert
ence of most of our contemporaries
is to the same effect The reason for
this lack of patronage on the part of
the Jewish merchants lies on the sur.
face. The gentle thinks that a re- ,
ligious weekly is the most precious
paper in the Jewish family, read by all :
the members from Alpha to Omega; ,
but the Jew knows that the only sec
ton of Jewish paper that is general

RUSSIAN CONDITIONS NO BETTER.

A cablegram to the Jewish Morgen
Journal from Warsaw says that con-
ditions remain the same in the Pale
of Settlement, Notwithstanding the
death of Stolypin.
In wilma, for the first time in long
while, a Jewish soldier was refused
leave of absence on Yom Kippur Hith-
erto, Jews in the Russian army were
not hindered in the observance of their
religious duties.
At Odessa, Governor Tolmatehoff
continues his campaign against Jews,
who have taken Russian first names.
This campaign started with the case
of Already Borodsky, who was disquali-
fed as candidate for the Duma on
account of confusion as to his real
name. Tolmatchoff recently arrested
forty Jewish lawyers for bearing first
names that were not Jewish. They
were discharged with a reprimand to
use names that sound unquestionably
Yiddish.
