Vireos Are Fond
of Caterpillars
Scale Insects and Other
Tree Pests Are Relished
by Birds.

prepared By the United States Department
Of Arricuiturel
During the summer almost any
where In the United States at least
one species OF vireo. and usually more
than one, Is to be found fitting about
IN the trees or shrubbery. In the East
and Central regions the common spe-
cies Is the red-eyed vireo, but the
white-eyed, warbling. and yellow
throated vireos also are abundant.
The Philadelphia. biue-headed. hutton,
and Bell vireos are more or less wide
" distributed.
Are Vlreos 6enefeisl7
As with other common species OF
birds, the question as to whether or
not vireos are beneficial is legitlmately
raised. and to answer 1t. the biological
survey Of the United States Depart
nent Of Agriculture has made a study
Of their food habits, by examining the
stomach contents OF great many Of
these birds.
The conclusions reached are set
forth in a recent report department
Bulletin, 1850, food Habits Of the
Vireos: Family of Insectiyorous
Birds" The food Of the several vireos
is shown to be very similar though
sometimes varying in proportions.
Most Of the insects eaten are either
neutral or definitely injurious In their
economic relations, and may be placed
on the credit side Of the account of
these birds.
Fond Of caterpIllsrs.
All vireos are especially fond OF
caterpillars. Scale insects are a no.
table item of vireo food, and other
tree pests are freely eaten. Many de
struetive weevils we're found in the
stomachs examined, including such
forms as the clover-leaf. clover.root.
cotton-boll. and nut weeviis. the plum
cureullo and bark beetles. vireos also
destroy ants and grasshoppers. Use
full insects taken by the vireos include
some OF the hymenopterans, predaci-
Gus bugs and beetles, among which
are ladybird beetles, which are almost
uniformly beneficial. Although It Is
regretted that vireos consume as many
ladyhirds as the evidence indicates,
yet they also devour many Of the pests
attacked by the ladybirds. which must,
in part excuse them. As fruit eaters
the vireos are practically harmless.

DON'T THROW AWAY

There is an abundance of wild and
tame plums in Pine county this year.
There are so many that they will
rot ON the ground unless something
is done to market and save them.
There are those right in the neigh
borhood of this abundance who have
no plums and who know nothing
about them. 1 hope that those who
have plums will try and sell them
direct to consumers. A demand for
them can be created if you only go
about it. Don't try to give them
away for if you do, you will I'M
doubtedly fail. People are suspic-
ious about things given to them.
But you can sell them. Make little
canvas of your neighborhood and find
out what the situation is. Put a
reasonable price on your plums, ac-
cording to quality, and offer them for
sale. Better still, place a little ad
in the American want Column.
1t will do the work for about rs cents.
The plums should be saved. A. WYE.

HINCKLEY

John Gontjes is putting the finish
ing touches on his new barn which
he built this summer. The fine barn
greatly improves the appearance of
the already attractive farm which
Mr.. Gontjes has appropriately named
River Glenn.
The over supply of rain is causing
potatoes to rot in the ground, as
cording to reports from some farmers.
Mr.. Barlow of Minneapolis, who
owns potato warehouse in Hinck-
ley, and a.large farm near town, was
here last week looking after his farm
and making preparations for opening
the potato house as soon as the dig
ging and shipping season begins.
Rainy weather has hindered the
work of the road building crews
south of town on No. 1. They have
been working Sundays to make up
for lost time, when there was Sun
day that it was not raining.
Saturday, Sept. 4, was an unlucky
day for motorists in this vicinity.
Two large cars collided on No. 1, a
mile north of Hinckley, shortly after
noon, one man and boy being seri-
ously injured and both cars de-
molished. Anton Spindler driving a
Dodge and Mel West driving Buick
ran together on No. %. Both cars
were badly damaged but fortunately
no one was hurt. Saturday night,
shortly after dark, two Hudsons
driven by tourists crashed into each
other north of town. One car occu-
pied by four people was top side
down in the ditch, but no one was
hurt save a few minor bruises and
good shaking up. Busy time for
garage men.

to inform themselves Of what is going
on and what is best for the country,
but do place much of the blame in
the hands of politicians; it is only
small percent of them that really care
to tell the people what is going on in
legislative halls. The tendency is to
put the soft pedal on that and try to
satisfy and appease the minds of those
few who are watching them and who
would cause lot of commotion if the
Legislators did not vote according to
their wishes.
One of the matters likely to come
up at the next session of the State
Legislature is that of doing away
with the primary election law. I'm
der the old convention system, it was
easier for political bosses to control
elections and henceforth legislation,
and for that reason they want the con-
vention back. Undoubtedly there are
chances to improve the primary, but
even as it is, it is big Improvement
over the convention and l am with the
progressives in retaining it.
There have been altogether too
many bank failures in the state the
past five or six years-a number of
them right here in Pine county-and
there should be less opportunity to
gamble with the peoples private mon
ey. | shall be glad to lend, my aid
in guarding private interests more Sc
surely-a Tightening up along the
line.
To those who do not know me per-
sonally, will add this information.
Have been a resident and citizen Of
Pine county for IL years, during all of
which time l have been editor and
manager of the Askov American and
as such have come in close contact
with the people. Have been a tax
payer of the county for 10 years.
While that of being a taXpayerais not
so all important, it has bearing, for
those who pay considerable tax are
more careful about not increasing
it. One who pays little or no tax
a free lance, so to speaks, as
rule, not greatly concerned about
taxation. ..1
My age is 37-old enough to have
had experience and young enough to
be aggressive.
Should I be elected to the 1927
session, the people of Pine county,
who will trouble themselves to read
my letter, (and 1 believe big per-
centage of the voters will do that
when it is presented in form that
is easy to get at) will know my leg
-lative record and should l be a can
didate for a second term, there will
be good opportunity to approve or
disapprove that record. This is my
one promise in the campaign-that
shall inform the voters of Pine
county of what is going on at the
State House, if elected on Nov. 2.
