we would have fewer destructive
worms and insects.
As the plant life of location in
creaSes in numbers and variety the
number and variety of the
enemies to plant life also increases.
This condition should be met by a
corresponding increase in the number
and variety of birds that prey upon
the insect enemies of plant life. Let
us foster and encourage wild bird
life in our groves and orchards and
about our homes. Kill the cat. trap
the rat, break the target gun.
Those who lived upon the open
prairie of Kansas twenty-five years
ago were struck by the scarcity of
wild birds, only two or three varieties
being found there at that time. The
writer of this then thought that
birds were scarce because of lack of
trees or other protection. He is now
convinced that it was a. lack of water
rather more than the want of shelter
The number and variety of wild
birds have greatly increased in and
around Wa-Keeney in the last few
years and this has been noticeable
since the installation of our water
works and the increased use of water,
irrigating gardens and watering
lawns. 1t is an interesting sight to
see the birds flock around lawn
sprinkler and. those who take note of
such trifies ~ must conclude that
water is necessary to the pleasure as
well as to the health of the birds.
o
Wa-Keeney is known as the ''honey
locust town" She Is justly proud of
her locuStS but she should look well
to her laurels, and that is no pun,
for the town is really in danger of
losing her locust shade trees, and
those trees are one of the most strik-
ing and most gratifying features of
the city. From 1900 to 1909 the trees
made a most rapid growth but during
the last three seasons the trees have
progressed back ward in both mum bers
and condition of thrift. The year
1909 saw the greatest rainfall ever re-
corded here. We had IL inches rain
fall in 18- consecutive days in the
month of June. We had abundant
late fall rains, keeping the trees in a
tender growing condition right up to
the coming of winter. This was
followed by sudden zero temperatures
in December. Spring found many of
tile tender branches dead, and in
many instances the whole top of the
tree failed TO leaf. Since then we
have had three or four driest seasons
which farther weakened the trees
and left them in poor condition to re-
sist attack by insects. The worst of
these is sort of worm or bOrer which
works between the bark and the wood
of the trunk and larger branches.
His presence seems to be indicated by
change of color in>the bark and is
later positively shown by an exuda-
tion of wax. Possibly the change of
color may be the result of sun blister
ing, and this may. prepare the way
for the worn. Many trees have died,
notwithstanding our former hope and
belief that nothing can kill honey
locust. Something should be done
for our trees. Tree surgery may help
save a few but prevention is
better than cure. Let tile trees lie
kept in good growing condition, and
let us learn the life history of Mr..
Wbrms So. that preventive measures
fmay. be adopted.

WANT HALE EXPELLED.
Mexican Paper Calls Him Spy-Lind
Sentiment Modified.

MEXICO CITY. August 1a-Popular
interest IN the outcome Of John Lind's
visit to Mexico as the personal repre-
sentative Of President Wilson was d.
vided yesterday by the efforts Of a por-
ton Of the local press to secure the ap-
plication Of article So OF the constitution
to DR.. William Bayard Hale. who for
some time has been investigating condi-
tons In Mexico on behalf Of the United
States government. Article 80 is the
clause that provides for the expulsion
OF ''pefnicioue foreigners"
The independents, which il extremely
r1Did In It's attacks on him, suggests edi-
tofiAl1y that President Huerta expel DR..
Hale, who is characterized as a spy. and
declared to be working to bring about
Intervention. --sse-ss
In the week that has elapsed since
Mr.. Lind arrived In the capital public
sentiment toward him has been much
modified. and the opinion now prevails
that not all Of the government officials
are as ready to reject summarily his
propositions as was indicated before he
reached the capital There Is reason to
believe that whatever the Mexican reply
will be, 1t will be made within two or
three. days and that by the end Of the
week Mr.. Lind will be on his way to the
Unified States.
