Those Pestiferous sparrows.

Mr.. Dearborn says the English spar
row reduces the number of some Of
our most useful and attractive native
birds, such as bluebirds, house wrens
purple martins, tree swallows, cliff
swallows and barn swallows, by de
stroying their eggs and young and by
usurping nesting places. 1t attacks
the robin, wren, redeyed vireo, cat
bird and knocking bird, causing them
to desert parks and shady streets OF
towns. Unlike our native birds
whose place it usurps it has no song
but Is noisy and vituperative. 1t de
files buildings and ornamental trees
shrubs and vines with its excrement
and with it's bulky nests.

tain the funds to maintain principal
thoroughfares by collecting toll from
those using them Pixies or gates
were set across the roads by the keep
er or toll collector.
To prevent people who travelled his

This was put across as a barrier, and
when the toll was paid it was turned
aside to permit the carriage or wagon
to pass on its way. Hence the name
turnpike.

sleep which endures the winter
through with some warm-blooded AMI
mails which fad themselves suddenly
surrounded by frigid weather, and
