Wellington, Colo.-The lowly black
bird has redeemed himself after long
years OF derision and contempt gratui-
tously heaped upon him by ungrateful
man in all countries and In all ages.
He has proved himself Nemesis or
the webworm.
While the Agricultural college ex-
psrts are seeking some method of exter-
mination. or at least holding in check,
the destroyers Of the sugar beet, the
pestiferous webworm. C. F. Osborn.
field superintendent of the Great West
district tells of the work OF large
flock of blackbirds which seems to
sound the death knell of the beet pest.
One day recently about ten acres of
an eighty-acre farm of beets belonging
to c. o. Culver, south of Wellington.
was attacked by a vost horde of web
worms. 1t is well known that il left
unchecked they will completely de-
stroy field of beets in from a week
to ten days.
Mr.. Culver was watching the speedy
destruction ofohis crop with no chance
Of heading it off.
Early Sunday morning the heavens
were darkened by the flight of vast
flock of blackbirds, which circled
around couple of times and settled
down on the field where the web
worm were enjoying the first banquet
of their short young lives.
The tale is almost told
The blackhirds remained industri-
ously at work all that day ard returned
to the feast the next with Just as rave
nous appetites for the succulent web
worm as on the previous day. In
forty-eight hours the field was cleaned
of worms. and now the beets are grow
ing vigorously. The blackbirds have
departed for other green and wormy
fields and promise to continue tho
good work.

 WANT \ CUTTER
Say .it, ls Necessary to Have One in Prince William Sound to Aid
 Mariners.

1 Secretary James Fish. of the Val
 deg Commercial Association, has talk
 eu up with the Secretary of the
 Treasury the advisability of station ing a revenue cutter in Prince Will
 liam Sound with headquarters al Valdez, The secretary of the Com fmerriai Association points out the
 many ship wrecks in adjacent wa Eters and the large amount of ship tping that will be, sent north during ! the construction rof the government railroad. The letter is as follows: Captain Commandant E. r. Bertholf, Com1nandant Revenue Cutter Ser vice. Washington. D. C.
 f Dear Captain: This Association desires to bring to your attention the |!urgent necessity of the stationing of Ia vessel of the revenue cutter ser vice in the waters of Prince Will liam Sound. Alaska.
 r In view of the fact of your inti- Innate knowledge of conditions in this section, 1t is almost unnecessary to relate to you the many occasions in the past, that a revenue cutter would have rendered aid and saved life, but we will mention the loss of the Ore gon. Saratoga. Olympia Farralon, Portland and the barge Hayden Brown, as some of the vessels that have been lost not far from Prince William Sound.
 The barge America. with 2,600 tons of mining supplies and forty work men from Seattle for Valdez. in tow of the tugboat Tatoosh, is overdue. and Is believed to be in distress not far from here. She was last sighted by the liner Mariposa off Cape St. Elias seven days ago and under nor nal conditions should have been here six days. With the tragedy of the Hayden Brown fresh in our memory we feel keenly the need of a. boat to go in search of the tug and her tow
 The actual construction of build ing the government railroad will soon be commenced The amount of ship ping will increase by leaps and bounds. and there is no doubt that there will be plenty of justification for the establishment of perma-- nen, station of the revenue service at Valdez.
 Prince William Sound is so located as being the logical waters for pa
 troll The best sea otter grounds are all in this vicinity, and it is i'm
 possible to protect these vaIua ble animals without sharp lookout is kept by the officers of your service. Trusting that you will give this mat ter the careful consideration that its importance warrants, and hoping to hear from you, we remain.
 ".''. Very respectfully, VALDEZ COMMERCIAL. ASSOCIA- TON.

FOR THE BEST TOMATO soup
ingredients Should Be Of the First
Order, and Much Care Given
TO Its Preparation.

Peel two pounds of nice ripe toma:
toes and cut in two. Remove seeds.
Take a stewpan to hold four Quarts
of liquid, put therein two ounces OF
butter, one onion finely chopped, and
melt together for three minutes to
heat only, but not to color, otherwise
the soup will be spoiled, adding one
iteaspoonful OF castor sugar and little
salt Remove from the fire and add
q large tablespoonful of flour. Drop
all the tomatoes into the mixture and
mix well together. Then add two
quarts Of meat stock (not clarihed),
boil briskly. stirring all the while;
then allow to boil gently for, one hour.
Skim OF grease from time to time and
pass through fine sieve; return to
stewpan, season with pepper and salt
or tabasco, and. II not thick enough,
a little arrowroot or fecule diluted
In little cold water will slightly
thicken and add to the smoothness.
This soup is particularly nice with
rice, and the starch water In which
the rice is boiled will serve to thickeu
the tomato soup.
