WASHINGTON. July is.-Evi-

are still being poured into effective
propaganda work among Americans
has been laid before the state de-
partment by q statesman Of inter-
national reputation. It was learned
today.
In An interview with The United
Press this stateman, whose name
for obvious reasons cannot be mem
toned, said:
German bought papers are being
published unhindered under the very
nose OF the American government
every day
Hundreds Of ministers OF the
gospel are using their holy Offices
20 turn loyal Americans into Ger
man sympathizers.
The condition is not local but
countrywide.
"One OF the biggest papers In the
pay OF the kaiser is published In
the east"
An angry and dangerous situation
Is resulting from the Vaccinations
Of these pro-German propagandists.
ne asserted They are stepping rs
in an atmosphere OF hatred.

Good Word for the Grow.

The ease of the crow, condemned
years ago as a destructive bird in az
ricultural fields, has been rc-opched
by the department. of agriculture and
q more favorable verdict reached.
The investigation made by men in the
biological survey<af the department
shows the crow TO Be Of great valua
Ito farmers. Whether the farmers who
have had their corn pulled up by
these birds will take thu same view
Of the cas-, is doubtful. We know,
however, that there arc some farmers
birds and encourage their presence
about their fields.
After careful study Of the hab-
its and the examination Of large
number Of stomachs, the department
Investigators have reached the con
elusion that the crow consumes
enough grasshoppers, cut worms
white. 2rubs and other injurious in
scots to make him highly valuable to
farmers. There is, however, one bad
habit which the crow has, and that
is the destruction of young birds and
bird eggs, but this trait is declared to
be outw2ighed by the good the bird
is doing for the farmer in the destruc
ton of worms and insects.
The one danger from the crow, ,ac
cordimg TO department experts, lies II
large numbers. If the number can bt
1 Kept down SO that it, normal food j:
sufficient, there is every reason VIII,
farmers should encourage the bird t,
remain about their farms. This seem
to provide a good argument for oc
casonally shooting a few crows.
Not long ago an agent of the dc
partmcnt was watching crow feed

nc bird was pulling up young corr
ard carrying it to a nearby !:cst t
, feed its young. After the crow ha'
t left the nest, the agent climbed tn
