NOT HARMFUL TO THE BIRDS
Spraying Fluids Have No ~ Effect, 10
she Assertion Made by Eminent
ZooiogIst.

Spraying fluids used on orchard
trees do not kill the birds as we'll
as the bugs, Prof. H. A. Surface, state
zoologist of Pennsylvania, recently de.
lc!ared in an effort to upset theory
encouraged in some important circles.
This authoritative statement from
Professor Surface ought to be regard
led as conclusive and set at rest the
doubts Of many readers of this page.
II have watched this subject with
tho greatest care In thousands of
sprayed orchards In Pennsylvania"
the noted zoologist said, "and / am
prepared to say with certainty that
l never have known Of case of q
bird being killed by spraying or hav-
ing been found dead under circum-
istances that justify the suspicion that
this was the cause Of its death.
I'VE have examined the stomach Of
dead birds and have found no evidence
of arsenic to which their death could
be attributed.
Il live in the midst Of one Of the
largest orchards in Pennsylvania,
which has been sprayed frequently,
and 1t Is full Of birds nests. am
sure that II spraying were destructive
to birds they would not be nesting in
this orchard.
1T Is we'll known that the amount
OF arsenic necessary to kill an insect
will not affect or XIII bird and also
the birds will not eat dead insects. 1t
would be necessary for the bird to eat
a great many beetles tc AXE enough
poison to affect it In the least"
