CROW is BOTH FRIEND
AND FOE TO FARMERS.
Helps To Wage Warfare on Insects
And Raids War on Cornfeld.

That the crows character is not so
black as it is usually painted is dis
closed by Investigations made by the
Bureau of Biological Survey of the
United States Department of Agricul-
ture. In fact, the departments bird
men" say that much of the work the
crow does is OF direct assistance to
the farmer, for Mister Crow" wages
warfare all summer long on insect
pests In fact, insects supply about
one-6fth OF it's food, and those which
he prefers in his diet are the worst
insect pests the farmer has to contend
-grasshoppers, caterpillars, and
white grubs and their parents, May
beetles.
On the other hand, the crow raids
the cornfeld and the poultry yard,
and kills small wild birds and destroy
es their nests. From the evidence at
hand the crows merits and short
comings appear about equally divided.
While it would not be well to give
it absolute protection and thus afford
the farmer no recourse when the bird
is doing damage, the Bureau of Bio
logical Survey believes that to adopt
the policy of killing every crow that
comes within gunshot would be equal
ly unwise.

A far-reaching program of aviation
IN the French colonial possessions in
Africa has been drawn up by the com
mission on aerial transports at Tunis,
Algeria, which recommends that n
great aerial transport center be estab-
llshed. with Tunis as its base, in order
to centralize aerial traffic over the
Mediterranean sea. lnasmuch as Tunis
occupies an advantageous position. at
the junction of French and interna-
tional colonial possessions, a regular
aerial service, it is urged, between
Tunis and outlying districts would
benefit the French protectorate. Al
ready line Of airplanes is in opera
ton between Gabes, an Algerian sea
port. and the frontier Of Tripoli and
