SWAT SPARROW AS A PEST
The Biological Survey Calls the Com
mon Bird Useless and
Harmful

The rat OF the bird kingdom" Is the
row by the United States biological
survey
Sparrows were introduced into
America about 90 years ago, and have
multiplied with such rapidity that
they are a pest in nearly every part
of the country.
According TO the biological survey,
they not only serve no good purpose,
but consume great quantities of USE
full insect life, in addition to millions
of dollars worth OF grain They are
pugnacious and drive away many use
full and ornamental birds. They are
unclean and litter up the premises.
They are said to hatch young every
month in the year, operating the only
automatic incubator in existence, the
young of the preceding hatch incubat-
ing the eggs as they grow to full
tiedged sparrowhood.
Nearly every small boy has the in
stinct to kill. Properly directed this
instinct might be allowed to run
through its natural development with
out being harmful. Teach the boys
to confine their shooting to undesir-
able birds. They are few, and the
sparrows is the chief among them.
Teach the boy to set traps only for
birds and animals which ought to be
trapped and destroyed. Encourage
him m catch tho micp the rats and
the sparrows-if possible the minks.
the weasels, the raccoons and other
poultry destroyers in the country.
Teach him to value the catbird, the
hooking bird, the brown thrasher, the
oriole, the robin, the blue bird, and
many other varieties that are musical,
ornamental or useful.

ONLY eleven on THIS JURY
Judges Refusal to Exempt Deaf LIP
Reader Left the Tribunal One
Man Shy.

In one of our city courts the Judge
was examining a number Of men who
were trying to be relieved from jury
duty. There were all sorts Of men and
all kinds Of excuses, and his honor
was getting restless. One Of the men
drawn on the panel was genuinely
deaf, but like a number Of people az
fected in the same way, he could
watch the speakers lips and know
what he was saying, even though he
could not catch a word by sound. The
Judge sat for a few minutes with
out uttering a word, and then in q
very low tone said: so you wish to
be excused from jury duty because
you cannot hear?" The man was
looking directly at his lips, and conse-
quently understood the question of the
Judge.
Yes, sir, that Is the reason" was
the prompt reply.
We'll, II you can hear me when I
talk in that tone of voice l guess you
are fit juryman. You are not ex.
cused," was the decision Of the Judge.
There was no help for it, and the
deaf man took his seat in the box,
with the result that he heard little or
none of the testimony, and that parti-
cular jury was practically composed
of only eleven men.

at the now somewhat embarrassed
Harvey, she flushed all over her face.
