The salcman started out with q
gasoline engine which he planned to

He had almost reached the farn,
where he expected to make the sale
when he discovered that the crank of
the auto had fallen from its position
and dropped in the road. The auto wa

he would not be able to start again
without the crank. He could not call

BIRDS AND BUGS
Millions of Men and B o
Strengthening Birds Every
Year

New York Tribune: The annual
meeting OF the National Association OF
Audubon Societies has called attention
again to the wholesale destruction oil
birds and to the disastrous results
which are likely to follow so marked
a disturbance of the balance of ma
ture. AT the same time ID. Honaday,
the director of the New York zoologi.
cal park, puts forward a circular letter
on the subject, with a report from q
committee If the fourth national con
~servation congress 1t is represented
that 4, 900. 600 men and boys ARE
Strengthening birds in this country. and
that insect pests are inaicting losses
OF hundreds of millions of dollars
yearly upon the nation. most of which
would he averted IL the birds had not
been destroyed. 1t is, therefore.
urged that congress should. at this
winters session, enact one Of the
three bills which are now before it
for the protection of migratory birds.
There may be those who will regard
the statomt nts made as exaggerated
though they are, in fact, probably
we'll within the limits Of truth. There
may be those who do not take inter.
est in wild life and who do not love
birds for either their heanty or their
melody. But even the most unsympa-
thetic ntilitarian must find food for
thought in the indubitab BILE statistics
of Losses from insect pests and of AK
penses incurred in artifically fighting
them. 1t must he evident to the
practical mind, moreover. that any
considerable elimination OF bird life
~unlavoIably affects the balance of
natural forces. A large proportion of
birds are distinctly insectivorous.
Their existence and activities In nor.
NAL numbers keep the insects from be-
coming too numerous, and conversely
their destruction affords the insects
opportunity to increase abnormally.
That is the logic OF the case, and it
Is not to be ~overthtown. 1t explains
why certain insect pests have SO
enormously increased in recent years
at a cost of hundi eds of millions to
the most direct and convincing
the need of prompt legislation for
whatever protection to insect destroy
ing birds it is possible to afford. 1t is
probably true, AS stated. that the value
OF the birds as insect destroyers is
far greater than that Of their feathers
and Of their flesh for food. Certainly
1t seems like the economics of bedlam
to spend vast sums in inefficient arti-
fetal efforts to subdue insect pests
when the birds would do the work
ever 30 much more efficiently at no cost
to MS, II only we would let them do it.

Cincinnati, Nov. 19.-Postoffice in

Is said, have reaped a harvest of more
than a million dollars through mulct-

ranging the guarantee of the security
of their victims by stock and bond in
surance companies controlled by the
alleged swindlers.
After paying the commissions de-
manded the alleged victims are said
to have found that the interest of the
ring In their propositions came to an
end. The following members of the
alleged ring were indicted by the fed

In Cleveland; j. Gordon Malcolm, who
went to Canada before the indictments
were returned; Thomas Fishwick, now
in Boston; George s. Hannaford, now
