WRENS AND MARTINS
Are Great Insect Destroyers-Houses
Built for Their Convenience.

Built for Their Convenience.
A very interesting fact that is not
very generally known is the method
used by firm in the business center of
Alma to keep the alley, back yard and
neighborhood free from insects and
flies. Several years ago the Civic Inn
provement League placed Martin
house above Delavan's store and it has
taken care of quite few pairs of birds
Steve Bennett, whose place of business
adjoins Delavans, saw the wonderful
advantage of having these birds on the
premises, and after he found that the
house then in use was not sufficient to
take care of all the martins that were
necessary to do good job, he put up
two houses last May, one with ten
rooms and one with four There are at
present seven pairs of martins in the
houses, and some which are not yet
settled are staying in the neighbor-
hood. He has also put up six wren
houses and out of the six four are &C.
cupied by wrens, which is remsrka-
BILE showing. These martins keep prac-
tically all insects, mosquitoes and flies
destroyed, leaving the alley one Of the
cleanest in the city. The birds are up
early in the morning and devour all
insects in the air. The purple Martin
(Progne Subis) is bird that originally
dwelt in the hollow trees. but now
usually lodges in the cornice of house
or barn, or in q dwelling provided by
man. The male is blue black, and the
female dull black or grayish. Their
song is strong varied grating MARBLE

estimate 100 insects per day, and as
they can be kept so easily, why are

The Deadly Parallel OF I9O4-I9l4-A

Democrats can not ignore the deadly
parallel of twenty years ago." he says,
when they superseded protective
tariff system by their revenue system
under the name of the Wilson bill.
Imports increased, exports decreased,
the balance of trade was turned against
us. gold was exported, capital could
not invest, labor lost employment. In
a wore, business was paralyzed.
I'm the face of such distress, the
Democratic party sought new issue
and new leader and il found the issue
in '16 to l." and the leader in William
Jennings Bryan. We were told the
tariff had nothing to do with it and
that the depression was worldwide.
Now, Wilson says, it is merely "psy.

Nov. note the deadly parallel: For
the first time in twenty years imports
have outrun our exports In the single
month of April, 1914, the change
against us from the month of April
year ago. was sixty-four million dollars.
This tendency was continued in May, a
direct result of the Underwood tariff
act, the second Wilson bill. Capital is
hesitating, labor is unemployed, gold is
leaving the country in frightful proper
ton, business is paralyzed and the ma
ton is facing an issue of bonds. and a
