At the afternoon session, Gilford Pin
; chot presided. John Barrett, director of
I the Bureau of American Republics, spoke
J on -Interdependence of Nations in Con

' forma, spoke on Right Use of Re
' sources." "Conservation In Japan,"' was
the subject of an address by H. Ota,
Japanese Commissioner to the World's
Fair. Professor R. H. Hosmer spoke
on "Conservation in Hawaii."
i William L. Finley, the noted ornitholo
gist, of Portland, Or., spoke on "Conser
'. vation Through the Aid of Birds and Ani-
mals." He said in part:
', Finley Delivers Address.
i "Our wild birds are as much a part
' of the natural resources of the state
', as the forests that cover the mountains
and the streams that flow down Into
I the valleys. '
i -"In the vegetable and animal world,
all living things are ttund together
in many ways. In the struggle for
1 existence, every species is related close-
ly to many other species, each acting
i as a force in itself to hold the equi
' librium which is called the balance of
) nature. If we were to kill off the birds
' of a certain locality we should imme
! diately overthrow the balance of na
i ture and there would be a correspond
ing Increase of Insects.
' "For years our wild birds have been
rapidly decreasing. As a-result, mlll-
Ions of dollars are taken from the pock
ets pt the farming class every year to
' fight Insect pests, and this amount Is
I increasing. ,The Inroads of the Hes
sian fly upon the wheat crops of 1904
! were estimated at $.0.ono.OOO. The cot
ton worm is a great menace in the
; South: it destroys from J2S.000.000 to
! $50,000,000 annually of the cotton crop.
1 The coddling moth Injures fruit crops
; to the amount of J20.ooo.onn annually.
With the continuous destruction of
bird life In our country, the loss from
' Insect and rodent pests last year Is
i estimated at the enormous sum of $800,
000.000. I "Without the wild birds, our forests
would be swept by a blast of fire. Do
you know that 400 different species of
', Insects are continually working on the
oak tree alone? On the willow trees
' 1S6 different kinds of insects are con
stantly at work, on the pine 165 species.
on the hickory 170, on the birch 105
and on the elm SO. Careful analysis
of the stomachs of thousands of wood
peckers, titmice, creepers. kinglets.
. wood warblers. wrens. flycatchers.
" ewallows. nuthatches and other birds
shows that they do nothing else but eat
these devastating Insects. This is their
life work. Destroy our wild birds and
you destroy our forests.
"In a day's time the bushtlt and
chickadee have been known to eat hun
dreds of insect eggs and worms that
are harmful to our trees and vegeta
bles. A brood of three young chipping
sparrows were watched one day and
they were fed 1ST times by the par
. ents. A family of four song sparrows',
even days old. were fed 17 grasshop
pers and'two spiders In 67 minutes. The
flycatchers and swallows destroy vast
wiumhers of flies and gnats that annoy
horses and cattle. The food of the
flicker or woodpecker-consists largely
of ants which protect the aphides or
plant lice which are so .destructive to
jrardens and orchards. Three thousand
of these ants have been taken from
the crop of a single bird. The food of
the meadowlork consists of 75 per cent
of injurious Insects and 12 per cent
of weed seed, which shows it Is a bird
of great economic value. A single robin
has been known to eat 175 caterpil
lars. One b04bwhite that was killed
had over a hundred potato bugs in its
craw. Another had eaten two spoon
fuls of chinch .bugs. After the day
flying., birds have ceased their work
and gone to sleep. Hhe night-hawk is
busy catching untold numbers of mos
qultos. moths and other Insects.

expected on the floor of the National

Personally, he refused to make any

X PIANO DEAL
EOT LIARS AND
Portland Contains More Cneap Tnump-Box Pianos
' v Than Any City of Twice Its Size in the World
Despite the fact that many unscrupulous piano dealers are compelled to con
stantly indulge in fake schemes and contests in order to dispose of cheap pianos, re
member there are still a few reliable and honorable piano houses in existence; but
very few, however. -
That desire of a certain class to get something for Nothing induces unreliable
dealers to create schemes and hold contests, which still appeal to a few people.
EVERYBODY GETS A PRIZE
Yes, every contestant gets a prize. Generally a certificate for $100 or $125 sup
posed to be. worth that much towards the purchase of a piano. Of course the i'?S"lar
$200 piano is marked $325, the regular $225 one is raised to $350, the regular $2o0
piano to $375, and so on.
Offer a $100 certificate in payment for a 50-cent piano scarf, a 30-ent tal.1I?S
machine record or a second-hand piano stool. Note how quickly your offer will be
turned down. If the certificate had any value whatever, it would be accepted.
It is estimated that over $5,000,000.00 worth of piano certificates have been
issued in Portland during the last two years. The whole $5,000,000.00 worth would
not be accepted in pavment for a loaf of bread by any grocer or baker.
Will piano buyers ever get tired of being faked? That question was asked a
hundred times at the last piano dealers' convention in Detroit, who deprecate the
illegitimate methods practiced by unreliable dealers.
The reliable piano houses hold aloof from fakes of any kind. They mark their
ianos in plain figures at lowest possible prices and maintain that price absolutely.
We have new pianos for $175, $200 and upwards, all marked in plain figures.
Terms or cash. Every piano guaranteed.
