CANE BIRDS NOT HARMFUL
Game, Aquatic, and Rapacious Species
Work III Rchalf Of Edrmer


Work IN Behalf OF Farmer.
A brief in defense OF some common
game, aquatic. and rapacious birds
has been prepared by specialists Of
the United States Department of Az.
riculture. The specialists set out 10
prove that many socaled harmful
species of birds in these classes are
not only guiltless OF many crimes Of
which they are commonly accused, but
that they are one of the greatest
agencies in the control OF insect pests.
and that many disastrous outbreak
Of such crop destroyerS as chinch
bugs, grasshoppers. and May beetles
have been prevented by the work Of
the birds in behalf of the farmer.
That the truth about their beneficial
value may become widely known the
specialists have issued a publication,
Farmers Bulletin 497, Some Common
Game, Aquatic, and Rapacous Birds
In Relation to Man, which discusses
10 species including kinds OF hawks
and owls.
The horned greba, commonly
charged with living entirely upon fish,
is cleared by the specialists. The
grebe is shown to feed largely on
crawfish, other crustaceans, and in
sects. Terms also have been held re
sponsible for serious reduction OF
food fishes in some localities, but a
careful study of their food habits has
shown that only small proportion of
their diet consists Of such fishes.
All the shorebirds are strhIngly
beneficial in their food habits, the bull,
letin says. The slaughter of these
game birds depriyes the farmer of val
liable allies against some of the worst
crop pests. Such game birds as quail.
grouse, and pheasant take less insect
food than the shorebirds, yet all Of
Them do certain amount Of good.
Even hawks and owls have had
name which for the most part is I'm.
deserved, it is said and indscrimi-
nate persecution of these birds is a
serious mistake.

timed rations when he was brought
In from the field and was losing his
strength because he refused To eat.
In the bed next him was II sergeant of
the regular army who had been
brought in to die because piece Of
shrapncl had lodged so close beneath
his heart that an operation to remove
ii was impossible.
Steals Food From "Joy Cart"
The sergeant. rejoicing In the name
of Kelly and coming from the town Of
ST. Joseph, Mich, refused to accept the
verdict that he must die and dine on
liquid rations. Whenever the 'joy
wagon" Gas the boys call the food
cafD appeared, the sergeant would
arise from his 'deGth bed and steal
food while the backs Of the nurses
were turned. After a while the doc
tors listened to his urgent request for
Irregular meals and cancelled the or
der that he was to have liquid diet
pending his stay In the hospital. Ser
geant Kelly is still ut the hospital,
where he Is now working as a hospital
orderly. He Is eating as much as they
will give him and whenever possible
sneaking "extras," which he hides be-
meath hk pillow.
Rittow and the other men in ward
23S have developed real appetites
from watching him eat and listening
to his jokes. They know as well as
does the sergeant that any chance ac-
cldent may dislodge the bit of shrap-
mel that lies beneath his heart, but as
long as he can shake his fist at death
and laugh at his troubles. they laugh

He trained at Camp Mills with an

Growers Whose Fruit is Ripe Enough

Truly it is an i'll wind which blows
good to no enc. The epidemic of in
fluenza which has becn sweeping the
country is promising to prove an I'M
usual boon to Florida growers of or
angos and grapefruit through the I'M
precedented demand created in other
sections for these citrus fruits, the
juices of which have been eagerly
sought for convalscing from the "flu."
Telegraphic, reQues S for quick SIP

several days. Many of the larger cit
les have been practically denuded of
the supply of oranges and grapefruit
on hand through the demand thus
created; and prices quoted on such
fruits reaching the larger markets for
the last few days are perhaps the
highest ever recorded.

and those Florida growers whose fruit
is ready for shipment apparently are
