The wretctIed whiSkey saloons at Knox
vile, Md, near Brunswick, are bearing a
large crop OF legitimate fruit. A few ex-
amples during The past two weeks: A
drunken man in frenzy OF rage hurled
bricks at Brunswick man and fractured
his skull, causing injuries that may result
in death; the victim is in hospital and
the would-be murderer in jail. An aged
colored man became helplessly intoxica-
ted in booze john, fell over a bridge
abutment into little stream and slowly
perished as the cold rain beat down upon
him. Five ruffians who got their insplra-
ton from liquor called an inoffensive
Servian from his home at midnight, rob-
bed him and beat him, leaving him hall
dead along the road. Isn't it singula:
that civilized communities will stand for
these crime and death agencies

About year ago Senator Gray Silver
secured a number of partridges and
pheasants and placed them on his farm
at Inwood. The birds soon became
satisfied with their new surroundings and
are contented. Last week Edwin Hen
shaw states that he saw ten young pheas-
ants on the farm, and that they were
tame and gave evidence of having enjoyed
good treatment. This is only a be-
ginning of the Senator's efforts TO raise
pheasants and partridges, and again
stock the valley with these birds. The
State Game Warden has distributed
number OF them throughout the State
but this is the first report made about
fredericksburg World.

BOOK TELLS Of BIRDS,

Department of Agriculture Is

for Farmers.

Fifty Common Birds of Farm and Or
chard is the title of one of the most re-
markable bulletins that have been issued
from the Department of Agriculture for
long time. The first copies were made ready
yesterday. The first edition is chiefly
for distribution to members of Congress,
but the bulletin is of such general inter-
est that it is likely to run through many
editions and take a place with the de-
partment's famous 'Horse Book" as one
of the classics of agriculture.
The bird book consists largely of pic
lures but, as the introduction says, these
are given prominence for a specific pur-

biologist. The picture is used In each
case as an Identification of the bird, and
the 30 words of text that accompany the
picture relate merely to the bird hapits
and range and the character of it's food.
Examined $4,000 Specimens.
DR.. Henry Henshaw, chief of the bio
logical survey. from which the book is
issued says that the records 1t contains
are the result of the examination or
about $1,000 bird stomachs by the experts
of the survey in the past twenty-slx
years He adds, however that these
stomachs were obtained so far as pos
sible from scientific collectors because
the birds themselves are too valuable a
national asset to be destroyed when
avoidable. even for the sake of getting
data on which to base laws for their
protection.
DR.. Henshaw says that the object of
the book is to put into the hands of farm
ers and farmers boys a ready reference

glance which birds are valuable and
which are harmful He gives some fig

insects and eating weed seeds. He points
out that birds are voracious eaters and
have to work fndustriously not only for
their own food, but for the food demanded
by their ever-hungry nestlings. In this
connection he points out that the stom-
ach of a single unobtrusive field sparrow
taken in New York contained three-quar-
ters of an ounce of noxious weed seed
On this basis it could be calculated with
fair accuracy that the sparrows alone
in New York state destroyed annually
SIS tons of weed seeds
Many of the other figures given are
equally interesting and surprising. The
author says that nearly all birds are use
full either as insect or weed eaters. Even
the birds of prey. like hawks and owls
that have bad name among farmers
do much more good than harm
