It was ob- served that 45 per cent. of the stora- ach contents of f1fty-two birds con sisted of caterpillars, which included cut-worms and 10.92 Der cent. wire worms, while eaten heartily of Color ado potato beetles and few had side dishes of the elm tree beetle. The present showing in the matter Of diet. r. Forbush finds to be to the credit or the starling, but he fears their adap- tibility to all sorts of food which will develop as they increase. For those who do not as yet recognize the bird he describes it as follows:
 Length, eight and one-half inches: adult male; black with purple and green reflections, the feathers of the upper parts more or less tipped with pale buffa under tail-coverts edged with white; beak yellow; feet flesh colored, tinged with brown; female: spotted below as we'll as above; young unifonm ash brown, faintly streaked with darker. The starling may be readily recognized by it's general ap- pearance and manner of flight. It is about the size of the red-winged black bird, but has a very short tail. It is usually dark in color, and during the breeding season its bill is bright vel low. Those who see it for the first time usually describe it as a black bird with yellow bill. In flight ii futters much like meadow lark. but seldom sails as the lark does.
