There is in NeW Zealand form Of
crow (Hura) in which the female has
undergone a very curious modification.
1t is probably the only case in which
the bill is differently shaped in the two
sexes. The bird has taken on the.
habits of the woodpecker, and the stout
troW-like bill of the cock bird is ADMIR-
ably adapted to tap trees, and if they
sound hollow, to die down to the bur
ROW of the insect within.
But it lacks the hornypointed tir
of the tongue, which in the true wood
pecker is provided with rcculved hairs.
thus enabling that bird to pierce the
grub and draw it out. In the hura
the bill of the hen-bird has become
much elongated and slightly curved
and when the cock has dug down to
the hurow, the hen inserts her long
hill and draws out the grub, which
they then divide between them

BOTH MASTERS OF RHETORIC
Scholarly Consideration Of the Liter.
AIRY Styles Of Abraham Lincoln
and Thomas Jefferson.

In American letters we fix on Abra-
ham Lincoln as our type of natural ex-
preston; the legend of his humble be-
ginningS and the planness of his man
ner deceive us into a conviction that
he was less indebted to art than Thorn
us Jefferson, and we therefore talk of
the rhetorical eXtravagances Of the
Declaration and contrast them with
the Attic simplicities of the Gettysburg
address, John Erskine writes In the
North American Review Perhaps we
see final proof of our sound taste in
the story that Matthew Arnold gave up
the address for lost when he got to the
colloquial proposition; dedicated to
the proposition we say, was more than
his artificial spirit could bear Whether
Arnold expressed such an opinion, or
whether he would have been right In
so doing, Is of less consequence than
or emotional readiness, IL we cult
vate the natural, to accept the Lincoln
speech as an illustration of our ideal,
and to set 1t over against the artifice
of Jefferson's great document-to de-
tect literary manner in such phrase
as When in the course of human
events" and nothing but naturalness
In "Fourscore and seven years ago.
or to find an empty and sounding
rhetoric in "life, liberty and the pur-
silt Of happiness" but only the demo-
cratic syllables of common sense in
government Of the people, by the peo-
pie, for the people" Both documents
are as rich as they can well be in
rhetoric, as all great oratory Is, and of
the two Lincoln's, as a matter of fact,
is rather more artfu in the progress of
its ideas.

Of the city and Il member of a leading

cried. How are things coming, and

The production of sheep for wool
alone is rapidly on the wane in the
United States. More and more en-
phasis is being placed on the pro-
duction of lamb and mutton for the
table, although only 81 per cent of
the meat consumed by the average
American for the last five years was
lamb or mutton This proportion
should be much larger, according to
the United States Department of
Agriculture as mutton and lamb are
amona the most healthful, nutritious,
and Yalatable of meats.
The reason for the limited use of
lamb and mutton throughout the
central section of the United States
probably had its origin in the days of
the development of the great corn
belt region west of the Appalachian
Mountains, department workers say.
At that time the sheep owned by the
settlers of that region came largely
from the North Atlantic states, and
had been developed almost without
exception for wool production, re-
gardless OF the inherent flavor of the
meat. The iiesh of these animals was
no doubt tough, not so palatable as
other meats, and possibly, owing to
the crude methods of caring for it,
much OF it was unfit for use. AS
this section of the country has been
somewhat slower in the development
of mutton breeds of sheep, and as
much prejudice against the meat has
been handed down from generation
to generation, there has developed
the idea that the flesh of all sheep is

Tiny Wasps to Aid Agriculture.

agency that viii result in the des-
truction of the corn borer and the
saving of millions of dollars to the

ment. entOmologists say, will not be
determined until observations have
been made over a period of years.
Imported from France. in which
country and in Italy the habrobracon
has proved a relentless enemy of the
corn borer. four colonies of the in
sects were bred at the government
laboratories in Arlington. Whether
the wasp can survive and flourish in
the colder and more uneven climate
of New England and the United
States ii general is 4 question still to
be determined.
The cora borer itself is an i'm
norted species, having come to Amer
lea in ghivments of European broom
corn. Ttz ravagCs first attracted seri-
.ous attention in 1917 in eastern
Massachusetts,, Since that time it has
worked steadtly westward. Last
wear the borer caused damage esti-
mated at 100000 in this State
alone. The corn borer, which in APP
pearance resombles a CATERPILLAR not
only attacks corn, but inAicts injury
upon crops of beets, celery, beans,

vestirators have found the borer
guilty of damaging 21l varieties of
plants.
The habrobracon is said to iniure

Biggest Auto
Shipment Coming

Transporting the biggest single
shipment of automobiles ever made
to one state at one time, two South
ern Pacific trains are moving west
to California, one by way of Og-
den and the other by way of FL
Paso. The shipment is from the
Nash automobile factory at Keno
sha, Wise, to Nash distributors in
California, and is valued at about
million dollars.
There are sixty freight ears III
each train, and five automobiles to
car, making a total of 600 auto
mobiles i'll the shipment. Practical
~ all of them were sold before the
trains left Kenosha, according to
the Nash distributors.
The first train left Kenosha on
March >. and is coming west by
way of Ogden, is made up entirely
of new automobile freight cars, part
of the order for 1000 placed by the
Southern Pacific Company last
year. These automobile freight cars
ordered by the Southern Pacific to
take care of the rapidly increasing
shipment to the Pacific Coast, are
of the latest design and cost
$3,500,000. They have staggered
side doors having an opening clear
ance of ten feet. With the addition
of the 100 cars the Southern Paci-
fic will have more than $500 auto
mobile ears in service on its Pa
cific system.
"The year 1923 is starting out
well tor us, said c. j. Simpson,
general manager of the Pacific Nash
Motor Company of San Francisco
in commenting on the record ship
ment. This million dollar ship
ment of Nash cars is a good indica-
ton of increasing prosperity on the
Pacific Coast, both for the auto
mobile business and for business
generally"
