Bird SLAUGHTER Costly.

The wholesale slaughter Of our val
liable birds is costing the farmers an
nual loss of many millions of dollars,
which will continue unless checked by
force of law. Natures laws start out
on a balance, and once upon time
we had insectivorous birds enough, to-
gether with the predaceous and para
site insects, to hold the injurious In
sects in check. Those laws are no
longer in balance. The farmers have
killed and permitted to the sportsmen
to help kill, the birds until insect pests
are destroying from $50,000,O0Q to $75,-
100000 worth of crops annually in Tex
as alone, which loss must be borne by
the farmers. Birds are the natural
enemies of insects, and know when,
how, and where to find them.--Ex-
