Through its predominating insect
diet, and on account Of its exceedingly
rapid digestion. the bird becomes the

The author illustrates how the bird is

ways; in checking insect invasions, in
preserving forests and orchards; their
service in the meadows and gardens;
their value in protecting live stock,
and their usefulness in the preservation
of health and elimination of disease.
Remarkable instances of the birds

of the English sparrow into New Zee.

the thistle and the caterpillar which

the saving of Australian agriculture
from the grasshoppers by the straw

wards for them-a task which the
banished hawks and owls had performed
free of charge. But during the first six
months such large sums of money were
paid out that special session of the
legislature was called to repeal the act
before the state went bankrupt. In
1912 Lord Kitchener pointed out the
necessity of prohibiting the destruction
of certain Egg ptian birds which pre-
vented insect pests.

The record in the case of the Grand

senator Jones. THE liquor license

excise board in that case.
The investigation of the excise

GERMAN FINANCES
HAVE STOOD TEST
Head of Treasury Says Situa-
tion Is Better Than
That of Foes.
lis READY TO GIVE AID
TO TURKS AND AUSTRIA
Speakers in Reichstag Declare
Kaiser's Realm Cannot Be
Conquered by Starvation.

BERLIN. March II, via London.-The
Berlin papers today give considerable
space to the speech with which the
secretary of the imperial treasury. DR..
Karl Helfferich, yesterday submitted
he budget in the reichstag. and 1t is
evident that his presentation of the
financial situation is attracting favor
able attention.
''Germany's credit has stood the test
of war better than has that of Great
Britain or France" DIR. Helfferich de-
ciared Germany alone has avoided d
general moratorium French rentes
have fallen from IL to Is. and English
consoIs about points. while German 2
per cents have fallen only 81: points
since the war began.
Showing of Reichsbank.
The Reichsbank," the secretary Of
the treasury continued, has made a
far better showing than has the Bank
iof England or the Bank of France.
The Reichsbank has gold reserve Of
F32 e-1o per cent of it's circulation and
deposits. Similar figures for the Bank
of France show 81 $40. while for the
Bank of England they are below 80
per cent
The unfayorable condition of foreign
exchange for Germany has nothing to
do with the intrinsic monetary situa-
ton. DIR. Helfferich declared, but re-
suited entirely from technical factors.
such as the interruption of foreign
trade and the fact that German bal
ances abroad could not be collected.
Germany, according to the secretary
of the treasury, has better organiza-
tion for mobilizing her financial re-
sources than have her enemies.
In Touch With Allies.
Germany is keeping in touch with
Austria Hungary and Turkey, the
speaker declared, with the view Of ex-
tending them financial assistance. Ger
many and her allies have a consider
ably lower war cost to meet than have
their enemies, whose total daily ex-
penditure amounts to almost 120,000,000
marks (sao.ooo,o0o).
The greatest economic phenomenon
of the war. the minister said, was the
accommodation of German political
economy to the new situation. Ger
many's productive forces had suffced
to keep the people supplied with work
and food: self-sacrif1ce and the adap-
liability of the German people had Gre
ated unique and invincible war ma
chine.
NO policy of starvation or strangu-
lation,' DR.. Helferich concluded. will
succeed in shutting off Germany's life
breath An honorable peace will amply
atone for all sacrifices and the future
will be ours
