Heartless People
Poisoning Birds

That some people are inclined to
be thoughtlessly or Intentionally
cruel seems to be the only conclu-
sion to be drawn from the fact
that someone in our city seems to be
addicted to the practice of poison
ing birds. That the pigeons seem to
be particularly unfortunate in pick
ing up grain which has been pois-
oned with arsenic has been reported,
One resident of the city reports a
number of pigeons, some of which
have families of young to feed,
poisoned within the last. few days,
and says that moaning Of the birds
in their agony would be enough to
deter the most heartless person.
This is a pretty good sized world,
md it would seem that there should
be enough room ceIo over for the
birds after we of the human spe-
cies have appropriated all the space
we want.

Mr.. Pierson, interviewed by a
Minneapolis newspaperman, said.
Minnesota has vital interest In
Iowa's good roads program. That
state furnishes more tourists to Min

bulk of the Minnesota travel south

Iowa.,

state roads, substituting therefor a
plan of general taxation or realizing
