Washington, Aug. 7. It pny tho
farmor to protect the birds, says Dl

riculture. "Only tho thoughtless
and ignorant," ho declares, still hold
that tho gracoful forms and beauti
ful plumago of those masterpieces of
naturo ecrvo their highest purpose
whon worn on a hat for a brief Boa
son, to bo then cant asldo and for
gotten, tho plumago dimmed nnd
faded, tho beautiful songs quenched
forever." ,
Dr. Honstmw, howovor, doein't
class ovory bird as a friend of man's
Indeed. Ho admits that few blrdo
tro wholly beneficial but yet ho
saya thoro nro very few among tho
harmful ones that haven't ot least
end redeeming trult. Ho sums up
tho situation oplgrnmmlcally "most
blrdo.most of tho tlmo aro beneficial;
a few birds moat of tho tlmo aro In
jurious." 1
According to Dr, Hennlinw, bljJs
form a vory different pollco force for
tho air nnd ground. Thrushoi,
oparrows, larks and wrons, ho says,
search tho surfaco of tho earth for
Insects and their larvae; tho wurb
lors, crecpors, etc., with their mi
croscopic eyes scan ovory part of tho
troet or Bhrub and fow hlddon crea
tures cscnpo thorn. .Woodpeckers,
not content with carofully Rcrutlnlr.

Into decayed and worm-eaton wood
and drag forth tho burrowing lar
vae; tho llycatchors, aided by tho
warblors, aro ovor nlort to snap up

hawks skim over tho pastures and
patrol tho air high abovo tho troo
