MIGRATORY BIRDS ARE ON
THE INCREASE, SAYS REPORT

A marked increase in migratory
wild fowl throughout the United
States, instead of the alarming de-
crease which lead to steps for their
protection, is noted in reports re-
ceived by the biological survey, Unit
ed States. department of agriculture,
from all parts of the country during
the past few months. The change is
attributed to the good effects of the
migratory-bird treaty,
Friends of the migratory birds be-
lieve that the first important step
for the perpetuation of the birds has
been made. but that another one
equally vital remains to be taken. This
consists OF the conservation and per-
petuation of a sufficient number OF
small inland. lakes. as we'll as island
and coastal swamps and marsh areas.
to provide the birds places for feed
ing and resting and rearing their
young.
1t is absolutely necessary, they
point out, that the birds during migra-
| tion and in winter have proper places
| in which to live. It is a mistaken
| idea, they say. that the drainage of
almost any area is benefit to the
community. Under proper conditions.
water farming of many lakes and
ponds and OF swamp and marsh areas
| will yield a distinctly larger return
than would the same area II drained
and used for agriculture. They sum-
marize the productiveness of such
farms as follows:
Food and game fishes.
1 Wild fowl. to be shot for sport and
food
Furs from such fur bearers as the
muskrats, skunKs, and raccoons which

LABOR EFFICIENCY LOST.

In the present labor situation there
is alarming situation. Reports from
the great manufacturing companies
show that labor is from 25 to 35 per
cent less efficient today than before
the war, notwithstanding improved
conditions. When this is taken into
consideration with the fact that the
war robbed normal industry in this
country alone of five billion days of
labor, that we are now four million
laborers short of demands, with al
most no immigration and million
foreign-born wage-earners waiting for
passports to return to Europe, we find
condition which is almost appall-
ing, which certainly calls for safe
and sane reasoning
If the farmers who still remain on
the farms would strike for six weeks
during the spring, millions would
starve during the next year and such
suffering would follow as has never
been known in our country
But the farmer will not strike. He
and his tenant have a common inter-
est in the crop which impel him to
long hours, to care and watchfulness,
and to hope of reward, and these ele-
ments are sadly lacking in the present
wage system.
The farmer is no more patriotic than
the wage worker. but his interest in
the product Of his labor is the domi-
mating principle, and this must also
enter into other Industries.

All these habits add to the cost of

the prevailing high prices. The work

of fndolent people.

HeIooland Beliefs.

Helgoland Was called Hertha in an
cient times. The island was indie
pendent from the tenth TO the four
teenfh centuries, until the dukes of
Schleswig took it over and used 1t
mainly as pawn for loans until the
Danes acquired 1t 400 years later. Den
mark coded ii TO Great Britain in the
nineteenth century and the British
fortified 1t for defensive purposes.
The islanders absorbed customs and
ideas of the many nationalities that
visited them, adjoining each with a dis
tinctive touch. They even had a curl
Gus quirk in their Satan. wooden leg.
Hence the Schleswig saying: ''In Hell
goland the devil goes on crutches."
