THE PASSING OF THE PASSENGER PIGEON

Alexander Wilson, the Father of American
Crnithoogy" estimated that flock of Wild
Pigeons seen by him at Frankfort Kentucky,
about 1903, contained at least two and one
quarter billion birds. This species continued
abundant until about 1860, when as a result
of increasing slaughter for food, it began
rapidly to diminish in numbers, and no large
flock has been recorded since 1888. At one
of the last known pigeon nestings," near
Petosky Michigan, in 1878, it is estimated that
one billion birds were killed during the season,
and many of our Barbour county citizens can
remember of seeing them in such numbers
that they would darken the sky and would
break down trees when roosting, and quite
often in this day and date, people in different
parts of the country report finding the passen-
ger or wild pigeon, but these finds have in
every case for several years proved to be
other than the wild pigeon.
The American Field, Chicago, under date oil
February s. 1910, stated, For more than ten
years. now, rewards have been offered for a
living wild specimen or dead one from a
wild flock. Sportsmen, naturalists and Audu-
bon societies have investigated every reported
find Of wild pigeons" all have proved false
leads, the pigeons reported as passenger
pigeons proving to be either band-tailed
pigeons, mourning doves, or white winged
doves
The facts are that experts have long since
given it up, and the large rewards that have
been standing and are still standing for the
finding of pair has never been claimed, and
the only living specimen known today is a
female passenger pigeon, now quite old, IN
the Cincinnati Zoo, and at her death becomes
the property of the National Museum at Wash
ington, D. c., where it will be mounted and
placed in the Museum.
This is only one of our birds that have
practically become extinct. There are ten
others, viz: Great AUX, Pallas Cormorant,
Labrador Duck. Eskimo Curlew, Cuban Tri-
color Macaw, Gosse's Macaw. Yellow winged
Green Parrot, Purple Gaudaloupe Parakeet and
the Carolina Parakeet. and to this we add
twenty-three species that now threatened
with early extinction which list includes our
own beautiful wood duck, and yet some OF our
people today think that bird study and protec-
ton is a secondary matter. Perhaps it is for
those who care nothing for future generations,
and 50 thought the select Committee Of the
Senate Of the Ohio Legislature in 1857 which
made the following report on a bill proposed
to protect the passenger pigeon 1.-THE Pas
senger Pigeon needs no protection. Wonder

their foods the time will soon come when the
annual loss caused by insects to agriculture
in this country alone, will be counted in bill
lions instead of millions of dollars
Most insects like the green leaf louise, 50
destructive to most Of our fruits and yegeta
bles, reproduce their kind at the rate OF ten
sextillion to the pair in one season This
number means 10000 for every square inch
of land that is above water.
The potato bug is less fecund. One pair
will produce from fifty to sixty million in a
season. the natural increase of one pair of
gypsy moths would defoliate the United
States in eight years These estimates are
quoted from Prof Forbush who in turn gath
cred them from the United States Biological
Survey, and We may say that these cases are
fair examples of the productive powers of the
insect world
Chinch bugs, army worms and locusts, unless
checked in procreation, soon become countless
hordes, devastating wide areas of the earth's
surface
1t is to be remembered that insects live to
eat Some of them increase their size at birth
10000 times in thirty days. Dr.. Lintner of the
New Jersey Board of Agriculture, reports 176
species OF insects attacking the apple tree.
CJ S. Biological Survey About the same
number attack the peach, plum and cherry
trees Dr. Packard finds 400 species feeding
upon the oak; 300 attack the confera The
number feeding upon cereals grains and gar
den crops is also very large.
That the worm does not eat everything that
grows is due to several causes-weather, par
asites, fungi insect diseases, insectivorous
birds and mechanically applied poisons which
are expensive, unnatural and dangerous. How
ever large may be the share of parasites,
fungi and weather in checking the Increase OF
destructive insects. investigation shows that it
is lamentably insufficient, and the briefs OF the
bird defenders pretty clearly indicate that the
birds have been, are, and will be without cues
ton one of the most important agencies in
staying the inroads of insect devastation. Men
who have had this subject at heart and in hand
for many years assert that bird life is one OF
the most Indispensable balancing forces oil
nature.

BIRDS ARE THE FARMERS BEST FRIENDS.

Dl RIfS ARE he FAhMEho DECi IT
Anyone who has read recent estimates of
the decrease in insectivorous birds and the
increase of insects readily believes that as the
mammals succeeded reptiles, insects will soon
possess the earth unless some agency is dis
covered to check their increase
AS long ago as 1904 Dr. c. L. Marlatt, bas-
ing his estimates on the crop reports of the
United States Department OF Agriculture. as
serted that the loss to the agricultural indus
tries in that year caused by insects alone
could be conservatively placed at $795, 900 900,
and this estimate does not include dollar
for the use of insecticides
Mr.. e. H. Forbush in his most comprehen-
sve book entitled useful Birds" maintains
that the insect pests destroy agricultural pro-
ducts to the value of $800,O00,000 year
There are about 900 colleges in the United
States today Their buildings and endow-
ments have been centuries in accommodating.
The value of the college and university build
ings is estimated at 60,000.000, and the en-
dowments at S219,000,000. Ii they should be
destroyed today-buildings and endowments-
the insect tax of one year would replace them
and leave a balance sufficient to endow 81
new universities in the sum of $lo,000,000 each.
We have in this country today about twenty
million school children, and the cost OF their
education has become by far the heaviest tax
( laid upon the surplus of the country yet it
costs more by many millions Of dollars to
feed insects than it does to educate our
children If there is any way in which this
vast and destructive tax upon the national
income can be prevented or stayed or resisted
in any appreciable measure it would seem to
be the part of wisdom to act without delay.
For many years individuals, at their own
expense and societies and representatives OF
the civilized nations the world over nave
studied and estimated the value OF birds to the
human race We call attention to but few
of the estimates made, and such as seem to
be fair and reliable. but enough, we think, to
prove in this country at least, We have ruth
lessly disturbed. If not destroyed one Of ma
ture's wisest and most valuable balances be-
tween tho birds and their natural foods, and
it IS clear to those informed upon this subject
that unless radical and immediate measures
are adopted to restore a sure, safe and natural
eauilibrium between insectivorous birds and

THE ARMY WORM.

There is general outbreak of the
army worm throughout the northern
states East Of the Rocky Mountains.
They are emerging from eggs laid BY
moths that apparently swarmed up
from the southwest. Normally they
feed by night and hide by day, not
Icing generally noticed, but when
their foods supply falls short they
start to travel and feed both by nigh:
and day.
REMEDIES: If the worms have
not yet attacked field, the ost
practical way to keep them out is to
pillow furrow in front of them,
throwing the furrow in the direction
towards which they are travelling
When the furrow is full Of worms
they may killed either by dragging
a log back and forth in the furrow ,r
by destroying them in holes previ-
ously dug at intervals of twenty feet
in the bottom of the furrow. Kelo-
sene poured on them in the holes will
destroy them.
If the worms are already in the
field, the following mixture, which
will attract them and destroy them,
should be spread abouti
