Insects are possessed of prodigious
fecundity and voraciJy. Given a free

are slow coaches compared with plant

original weight. If an infant did as

aside from disease and the elements,
two regulative agencies: First, birds;
second, predaceous and parasitic in

Its hearing is keener than ours. Its
heart beats faster, blood is warmer,
jung capacity higher. and muscular
activity greater than those of any
other animal. To maintain such hot
fires of life. great quantities of food
are required, and for assimilating it
they have enormous capacity.
A nesting needs one-half its own
weight of food daily. Three hundred

a low average. Here are a few single

BULWARK AGAINST
STARVATION

Birds stand between US and starva-
ton through the ravages of insects.
There are but $4,000 species OF the
former as against some 100000 spe-
cies of the latter, but if man is hands
off the birds can hold the hungry mil!
lions down. Under control the func
ton of insects in the world is as big
as their numbers. They carry pollen
from blossom to blossom, and so get
plants fortified and propagated. The
doctrine of botany is that flowers,
with their wonderful endowment OF
color, perfume, nectar and form, are
only tricks to win insect visitation.
But out from control insects conStl-
tute mans greatest earthly menace.
Through extension of cultivated areas
and reduction in bird population, we
have disturbed the balance. Insect
degradation is now a major concern.
In its year book for 1904 the Depart
ment Of Agriculture published the fol-
lowing estimate of the annual loss
occasioned by the destructive insects
in the United States:
Cereals ..............$ 5000, 100000
