HAS GOOD WORD FOR CROW
Australian Writer Points Out Occa-
sions When Bird Becomes a Real
Benefactor to Mankind.

There are those who say that the
crow deserves no mercy. There is
no other pest eradicator, imported or
otherwise, doing its bit so patriotic
ally as the self-same crow. In Ra-
mainland, Australia. says the Sydney
Bulletin, the rayages of the sheep
maggot fly must make loss of hun
dreds of thousands of pounds worth
of jumbuck every year, about the
only difference in one season being
that the damage is probably greater
than the last Were it not for the
bird whom no one has good word
for, the fly pest would soon duplicate
itself with losses to sheep-owners
increased accordingly. Every dead
sheep or piece of Offal in the bush is
the depository of the eggs Of unimag-
Unable numbers of prospective sheep
destroyers Just about the time
that the grnbs are the size of a grain
of rice, and few days before they
burrow into the soil, where they re-
main for about 15 days before coming
forth, as a developed sheep-mag-
got fly, Brother Crow spies out the
colony. Then he sends the glad It'd.
ings by wireless system, and all the
family within range hurries to the
banquet. When it Is over supply of
grubs for the next meal has to be
found elsewhere.

Smyrna Boy Who Made Good Praised
By Scranton Republican.

Referring to the death of John T
Porter, son of the late Abel j. Porter,
OF Smyrna, whose death on Sunday.

"He came to Scranton in 1879
where he opened wholesale grocery
establishment at Nos. 26 to % Lack

fact that this is one of the few sites
In Scranton that has been occupied

his interests until it became one of the
most important business of it's kind in
this part of the country, adding to his
connections the direct importation
from foreign markets He handled
every description of staple and fancy
groceries, canned goods, produce and
fruits
This enterprise was conducted in
his individual name until 1903, when
he Incorporated it under the title of
The John 7. Porter Company. He
was treasurer of the United States
Lumber Company and Mississippi
Central Railroad until 1917. and was
one of the founders of the Traders
National Bank in 1890 and became its
president in 1895, a position that he
held until January, 1918, when fail
ing health caused him to relinquish

I'm his business relations Mr.. Porter
enjoyed the confidence of a large
group of people. Many of the
younger business men of the CITY
sought his counsel and advice. Some
of his employees have been with his
firm for twenty years to thirty-seven
years. When the new incorporation
was effected several of these men be-
came members of the firm. "He
worked very hard but took many va
cations. He had been abroad eigh-
teen times and for sixteen consecutive
summers crossed the Atlantic to
travel about Europe that he knew
very well. He could talk exceedingly
we'll on his observations in foreign
lands and he had fund of information
and reminiscence that delighted his
friends.
Mr.. Porter was possessed of dis
eliminating taste in art that he ex-
ercised along original lines. His pic
ture gallery is filled with superb ex-
amples of his judgment, yet he sell
dom purchased a painting when the
artist was at the height of his career

Fine Judge of Paintings.

HE took pride in"picking a winner,
and it is amazing to note the indica-
tions of his unerring foresight. for he
had examples of the work of Corot,
BlakelOck, Chase, the elder and the
Younger Inness, Harpignies, Monti-
celli, Francis Murphy, Norton and
various other celebrated artists, the
value of whose work has greatly en-
HANGED since Mr.. Porter obtained
these pictures He chose subjects
that pleased him, and therefore his
gallery is of exceptional interest. He
was especially fond of Jennie Browns
cOmbe's paintings, and of these pos
sessed several.
'Mr. Porter was immensely liked by
those who came into close contact
with him, for he had a genial person
ality, a clever wit and many graces of
manner. He was always much in
! terested in the artistic taste of his
wife and daughters. Some years age
when rebuilding their home that they
now occupy, he added a sky-lighted
picture gallery that was one of the
chief features of that beautiful re-
sidence, where his fine collection OF
paintings was suitably housed.
