FRIENDS OF COTTON GROWERS
Quail Is One of Most Valuable Insect Eating Birds of It's Size in
 the United States.

In recent address, Col. G. O.. Shields, president of the League of American Sportsmen, said
 '"fhe. cotton growers are suffering loss of $1,000,000 a year by reason of the ravages of the boil weevil. Why? Because the quails, the prairie chick ems, the meadowlarks, and other birds which were formerly there in millions, have been swept away by gunners. The grain growers are losing over $100,000,000 a year on account of the work of the chinch-bug. They are los ing another $200,000,0O0 a year on ac- count of the work of the Hessian fly. Both of these are very small insects, almost microscopic in size It takes over 24,000 chineh-bugs to weigh one ounce and nearly 50,0O0 Hessian flies to weigh an ounce. A quail taken in wheat field in Ohio and examined by government expert had in it's craw the remains of over 1,200 chinch-bugs 1t had eaten that day.
 "Another quail taken in Kansas and examined by another government ex-
 
 over 2,000 Hessian flies that it had eaten that day.
 '"The farmers of the northern states are paying out $16,000,000 to $17,OOO,- 900 year for paris green to put on their potato vines. A quail taken in potato field in Pennsylvania and ex- amined by a government entomologist had in it's stomach the remains of 126 potato bugs.
 ''The quail is one of the most valu- able insect-eating birds of it's size in the world; and yet there are so-called sportsmen all over the land, thousands of them, who insist on having legal au- thority to kill every quail they can find during at least three months of each year."

'.PEACE on EARTHn

Ring out anew, most sacred bells, thy
story as of old,
OF Angels bending near the earth
who touched their harps of gold,
And through the cloven skies they
sent their messages TO earth
ForteIling them TO all mankind of
Christ our Saviour's birth.
Tell once again with sacred chimes,
the gift unto the world.
That caused the Angels to decend on
peaceful wings unfurled
And bid the shepherds, by their f1ocks
follow the Holy Star;
To worship Christ the new born King.
in that strange land afar.
Peace to the earth, good will to
men," the hallowed Angles sang.
And still it echoes round the world
As then the praises rang.
Yet with the woes of sin and strife.
the world is suffering.
Why do these men of war not cease,
And praise the gracious King?
How swift the time is fastening on
which prophets have foretold,
Then, will We be prepared to meet the
Shepherd of the fold?
Oh! hasten Angels from on high to
stop the noise of sin,
That our all-gracious King might
grant eternal peace within
