Referring to GermanY'S protest, he
said that Germany for many years by
imperial act had prohibited the killing
of useful and beautiful birds. Upon
what ground and with what grace do
the German merchants ask us to find
market for their contraband goOdS?"
he asked.
He quoted DR. Field. Massachusetts
game commissioner. in reply to the
criticism that the bill would encourage
the destruction of American birds
DR.. Field appeared before Il congress
sional committee and said he had
prosecuted seventy-fve milliners for
selling the plumage of native BIRDS
and in every instance the dealer as
serted he could not tell the native
from the foreign plumage when it was
received from the dealer.
ut was found in these cases that
all manner of beautiful American birds
We're killed and their plumage sent to
Berlin, London or Paris and there
mounted and returned to this country
as foreign plumage. How easy. in
these circumstances. for the traders
who appeared before the finance com
mittee to swear they never deal in
American birds And how clear it is
that only by the Strictest guard over
our imports can we prevent the cum
ming dealers from stealing our birds
and selling them back to us as foreign
birds.
ut is contended by the trade that
the enactment of this law will throw
out of employment those now engaged
in it. The SaYageS who do the killing
scarcely will excite our sympathy. As
for the millnerS. there is ample proof
that the trade will be quickly diverted
to artificial lines, which will multiply
tenfold the labor now required TO
mount the natural plumeS
The plea that the feathers of game
birds should he admitted is easily an
Swered. Game birds are and will he
imported with their feathers on. and
this law will in no way affect the trade
in game birds. Where the plumage
of game birds is imported it is taken
in the nesting season and the bodies
Of the birds are thrown away. The

PRETTY HOME MEANS MUCH

necessary to have Il fine house or
fancy cottage or expensive lawn fence
to make the farm home pretty. TO be
sure, n neat fence. a few ornaments
on the house and the free use of
paint help nightly, but the chief at
fractions can be made of trees and
shrubs. A shady lawn and a shady
driveway are always attractive. Groups
of trees. shrubs or flowers never fail
to charm, The lawn may not be kept
perfectly smooth, all the trees may
not be clearly pruned, yet the home
place ornamcntcd with them does not
fail to convey the impression that
peace and contentment dwell there

so much as we do the surroundings.
If the surroundings are pretty we
know the interior of the house is all

life worth living We look to the city
for fine mansions, but to the country
