MULBERRY TREES
WILL FURNISH FOOD
FOR HUNGRY BIRDS

A new method Of feeding the song
birds and insectivorous birds has been
discovered by Pennsylvania Scouts and
Mr.. John H. Phillips, member of the
National Council. B. S. A. and Penn
sylvania State Game Commissioner.
offers some valuable information to
Pueblo Boy Scouts for the care OF these
birds.
Mr.. Phillips says DO your scouts
know that many OF our song and in
'scctivorous birds arc threatened with
destruction and that our Federal Gov
ernment Is now issuing permits for
killing birds destroying trccsf When
the Migratory Bird Law was passed
protecting wild water fowl and song
and inscctivorous birds, 4 few far
sighted men realized that thru the
Government protecting the song birds
from slaughter. they would in few
years. become so plentiful as to be a
menace to the small fruits of the
North. These men. who l am glad to
say were connected with the scout
movement. advocated the planting OF
Russian mulberry and sweet cherry
and other small fruit bearing trees for
the birds in back yards and back
areas OF farms of waste places.
1T has been found that sweet cherry
does not mature In Colorado but the
Russian mulberry thrivcs and null
berries make n valuable food for the
birds during nesting time
Mr.. Pierce states that Pueblo Scouts
who expect to plant mulberry trees
should not plant them near n sidewalk
or near buildings as the berries stain
tho sidewalks.
The planting of bird trees was taken
UP with tho Audubon Societies and
other bird lovers. but the only effective
response received was from the Boy
Scouts of America.
Tho Roy Scouts of Allegheny County.
Pennsylvania. alone have planted to
date between 10000 and 10000 bird
trees. Ono bird tree will feed from 100
to 200 birds.
Planting forest trees and erecting
bird houses is commendablc work, hut
feeding hungry useful song and insccti-
vorous birds and their young to pro-
vent their destruction is worthy
scout activity. A small mulberry tree
costs but n few cents. much less than
the time and ammunition expended in
killing "a bird and 1t is suggested that
each scout n Amcrca do his good turn
by planting one OF these bird trees this
spring.
