Destroys Many Injurious insects. Says
Agricultural Department In Bulletin.
Uncle Sam has come to the defense
Of the much mnligned crow. The de-
partment Of agriculture is out with a
bulletin declaring that the feathered
biped which farmers have been seek
ing to frichten away with their old
clothes from time immemorial IL in
reality a boon to the tiller Of the soil
and ought to he encouraged ''in mod
crate numbers" rather than slaugh-
tered.
After careful study Of the habits
and the examination OF large num-
Der of crow stomachs the biological Sur.
vey experts Of the department have
reached the conclusion that the crow
consumes enough grasshoppers. cut
worms. white grubs and other injuri-
Gus insects to make him highly val
liable to farmers.
The one danger from the crow. &C
cording to department experts. lies In
iarge numbers. II the number can be
kept down so that its norma! food is
sufficient there is every reason why
farmers should encourage the bird to
remain about their farms and their
homeeteads.

THAW LOSES
Governor Felker Honors RequiSi-
tion;; Now Up to Federal
Court On Writ.
Associated Press

Associated Press.
n ONCORD. Nov S.-Governor
Felker today honored the requi-
sition of the state of New York
for the extradition of Harry Thaw.
The case is now transferred automat-
ically to the federal courts where n
writ of habeas corpus in behalf of
Thaw is pending.
The governor based his decision on
the indictment returned against
Thaw in New York county. charging
him with conspiracy to escape from
an insane asylum at Matteawan to
which he was committed after the
second trial for the killing of Stan
ford White. Thaw made a sensation
ri flight on August II and a few days
later was arrested at Coaticook,
Canada.
In granting the extradition Cover
nor Felker, Said in part: by the pc
tition of Governor Glynn it appears
that the grand jury of New York
county returned an indictment
against Thaw. That is sufficient to
warrant the arrest. arraignment and
trial of the respondent if he may be
found within the state where the in
dictment is pending. 1t is further
more. sufficient to establish that he
is tif found in any state or country
while the Indictment is pending)
fugitive from Justice"
Here he pointed out the federal
constitution limits in consideration
to the following points: Whether
the person demanded has been sub
stantially charged with crime ana
whether he is fugitive from JUS
tice." He held that under that law
and the court ruling that the person
demanded, "has no right to be heard
on either point before the governor"
The governor then concludes with
the remark that under the law he has
no right to consider Thaw's mental
condition.
