President Roosevelt deplored the
number of married couples, who had
"nothing running around the yard but
a fence. ' ,
And yet, with all the !>etty burglaries
that are happening on all the
refrigerators up and down the town,
u good strong fence, with a good loUd
dog is exactly what everybody needs.
Fences keep your own dog at home,
and prowlers out. Placed now, a wire
fence planted with. young vines will
be a thing of great beauty in a few
' months. Bums and Barrett have
" some fine fence material, and screening
and substantial locks, in case you
want to be forearmed.
' And while you're planting, get a

T* "?*V y ^>. Crow
Understands
Human Nature
(Hobeyt Sparks Walker in "Our
Dumb Animals") ^
Because ho i* not finicky in the
choice of his food, people say that ho
is a glutton. Be that as it may, he
is ever suspicious of the motives of
mankind.
Wise, shrewd, thrifty, courageous,
considerate of ins family, loyal to his
tribe, all those describe his character,
and how can it be said of him that
he Is a bad bird?
Ten years ago, I tried to assist a
movie-camera man to film the crow's
behavior about the common roosting
place; and today we are as far from
our objective as we were the day we
ventured into his roosting quarters.
| We concealed ourselves in a dense
thicket of pines in which thousands
of crows were wont to roost, and
when the first black fellow came in,
he spied us before he alighted. After
a few unsavory accusations directed
at us, he hurried away and met the
incoming band and notified them of
our presence in their camp, and other
couriers were dispatched. As a result
of this rapid precaution, not a
single crow came into the thicket,
but all of them moved o.n to other
forest trees out of our reach.
Do you doubt that a crow reasons?
Then by ali means secure a young
crow and raise him in your home.
The crow i? such a thrifty bird and
his appetite can be satisfied with
such a great variety of food that he
does not find it necessary to migrate,
like many of his other less hardy
neighbors.
1 was born and hnve lived for
nqmy years among the crows, and I
have never found them guilty of
committing half the crow-crimes of
which they are accused.
The best way to determine a bird's
worth is by examining its stomach
Such an examination has been made
of many crows. Out of 1,340 stomach's
of adult crows, and 778 nestlings
collected from forty states, it
has been found that about twentyeight
per cent of a crow's diet is
composed of animal matter, and a
fifth of his entire diet is made of
the most destructive insect pests
known to the farmer. In the stomach
of one crow examined in the
month of May. was foun<j eighty-five
May beetles; another stomach contained
seventy-two wire worms; while
a third stomach contained a hundred
and twenty-three harmful grasshopI
pers. A crow caught in the North
I had devoured -183 small caterpillars,
and a'bvoocl of four young crows
: were found to have eaten 118 grass;

sUot last week while resisting Officers
Haley and Hush, escaped from the
hospital early Sunday morning, where
he was being treated for wounds it)

a burglar entered the home of
Mr. W. Sheorn and got away with
several pairs of trousers, one of which
contained $2.50 in cush. Another
pair of trousers were found in the
yard, Where the thief dropped them.
Barefoot tracks where he escaped
from the hospital tallied with tracks
found in the Sheorn yard. Officers
have been trying to connect Wood
with the burglary, but so far have
been unable to find the stolen clothing.
Wood was recaptured Monday afternoon
at the house of Ed James,
near the overhead bridge of the Seaboard
railway. . When he escaped |
from the hospital Wood was wearing'
a bath-robe, but the officers have been
unable to find out where he changed ,
clothes. The capture was made by
Officers Hilton. Hush, Dill and street
commiagiofier W. IX W hitake r.
Wood has been placed in jail to be
held on several charges.
