THE VALUE OF BATS.
By H. W. Henshaw, Chief Biological
Survey Department Of Agricult21rc.

'"A ~ ~ NAAAOuAe VI os
Their is no doubt Of the great value
Of bats in the destruction Of mos
4u1toeS and other noxious insects eS-
Eecially beetles. For years we have
been interested in the subject and
have examined many bat stomachs,.
with a view of finding out the precise
species upon which the different bats
feed.
The investigation, however, is beset
with difficulties owing to the fact that
bats habituafly seem to thoroughly
chew their insect food before swal-
lowing it, with the result that the de-
termination even Of general insects
taken for food is very difficult, while
the Identification of s~oft-bodied in
sects l1ke mosquitoes is practically i'm
possible. Because they destroy so
many insects we advocate the protec-
ton OF bats wherever they occur.
None of the species hat inhabit the
tinted states do any harm, although
they sometimes cause W bv
congregating in large numbers in the
atticks or under the caves of country
houses, when the noise they make
coming and going frequently disturbs
the inmate of the house. eThis troubl :
hcWever, can always be easily cured
by stopping up the holes and com
peli1ng the bats to take up their resi-
cence elsewhere.
In connection with the economic
Importance Of bats the value Of their
