r Birds That DeserW: * They Destrdy We do not wish to create the im. - pression of being an extremist on the (question of bird protection, but as the interest in this subject just now is very much alive, we have decided to do all we can to aid in a clearer understanding of the value to the farmer of the birds on his place. Interest heretofore has centered in the bob-white, or partridge, because of his threatened extermination, but this bird is not the only valuable a\ly to the farmer in his fight against insects and weeds. We are this week quoting from Farmers' Bulletin No. 755, on the subipct of "Common Birds of the South^^flppstern United States in relation to ^^r^Agriculture," issued by the Agricul; ture Department, of the United States. Next week we expect to begin the publication of pictures of these birds with descriptive -matter, telling of their habits and what they eat. It will be learned that some of the most useful birds are not frame biros and should be rigidly protected by the Inw and then given every possible enec^Ueement by the farmer and the faffiR's boy. Many of them have been driven off by the English sparrow and can be induced to return only when this noisy n? uisance has been gotten rid of. It is our opinion that the bob-white should be afforded better protection at once. The meadow lark, robin, swallows, bull-bats (night-hawks) and bj. certain others should be rigidly pror tected for all time. In the Southeastern States, as re3k stricted for the purposes of this bulletin, there occur at some season of Hp the year more than 4G0 species of L birds. Of these, about 280 are common, and the number includes some >^tho handsomest birds of the United States, as the scissor-tailed flycatcher, the painted bunting, and the cardinal; besides the mockingbird, the brown thrasher, and the Carolina wren. The general habits, and particularly the economic value, of many Iwiaf.lrnn \i/ n annpioa will hr> treated later. , , The food habits of southeastern . V ?-J?i~ .r? of particular interest on ac/ count of tne pruvuiti... jn ?bis section of the country of a number ui ?.u0 worst insect enimies of agriculture, ' many of which arc eagerly sought by birds. One need only recall such ? t^c cotton boll weevil, the bollworm, and m*. .kinoh bun to realize with what serious foes the farme* of the Southeastern States has to contend. It is hoped that knowledge of the part birds play in combating his enemies will lend the southern farmer to take an active interest in securing full protection for these, his feathered allies. Cotton being the leading crop in the Southeast, the bird enemies of . , cotton insect pests naturally deserve fjrst consideration. Few in all this bioad land are ignorant of the tremendous damage done by the cottton boll weevil. For some years it has easily ranked as the most destructive pest in the United States. Special study of its bird enemies has been r made, and the result is that 66 species I are now known which, to a greater or less extent, prey upon the boll weevil. The most active of these enemies P of the boll weevil are the orioles, which actually take the insects from ^ the squares of the cotton plant, and the swallows, which feed upon the when they are in flight and Meting to extend their range. No fewei than 41 boll weevils have been found in a single stomach of the Bullock oriole, and large numbers of thp weevils are habitually taken by all species of swallows. Every one of a series of 35 eave swallows had eaten i-- boll weevils, the largest number in any stomach being 48, and the average 19. In winter the most important destroyers of these insects are blackbirds, meadowlurks, titlarks and CaroUna wrens. Eorty-one species of birds feed upon the cotton worm. Of these bird F enemies, cuckoos are most effective, since they frequently consume from 100 to 150 cotton worms at a meal. The orioles again deserve especial mention, as do also the crow, the curve-bill thrusher, mockingbird, cardinal, and gray grosbeak. The bollworm, or corn-ear worm, is attacked Dy IV southeastern birds, of whieh the boat-tailed grackle, or jackdaw, has * NATURE TELLS YOU j As Many a Chesterfield Reader Knows Too Well. When the kidneys are weak. Nature tells<you about it. The urine Is nature's index. Infrequent or too frequent passage, Other disorders sugest kidney ills. Doan's Kidney Pills are for disor1 kidneys. People in this vicinity testify to their worth. J. W. Bundy, Marion St., Cheraw, rS.

I Don't simply ask for kidney remedy f ?get Doan's Pills?the same that j ? Mr. Bundy had. Foster-Milburn Co., [ Props., Buffalo, N. Y. Weeds and Insects the best record. Seven species of birds feed upon the cotton cutworm. If insect pests are considered in the order of importance of the crops they attack, those damaging corn and other grain crops probably are next to the cotton insects. White grubs are a serious pest not only to corn but to strawberries, various garden crops, and grasses. Fifty-seven species of southeastern birds devour white grubs - ? * * - j-ii * i u... I Or me auuit lorms Knuwn un may beetles. The nighthawk, chuck-will'swidow, crow, and screech owl are the most voracious feeders on the adults, tnd the crow, crow blackbird, and robin on the larvae. Remains of no fewer than 91 adults have been found in a single stomach of the nighthawk, or bull-bat, a bird which has been nuch persecuted but which deserves '.he strictest protection. Wireworms are especially injurious to corn, but they damage all other grains, as well as many garden crops. These pests are the larvae of click beetles, of which there are many species. One hundred and twentyeight southeastern birds include the click beetles or wireworms in their bill of fare. The most efficient destroyers of these pests are the following: Downy and red-bellied woodpeckers, nighthawk, kingbird, greats crested flycatcher, crow, blue jay, crow blackbird, red-winged blackbird, lark sparrow, tree swallow, purple martin, house wren, and robin. From 20 to 40 wireworms have been found j in each of several robin stomachs. Corn is seriously damaged by billbugs also. The larvae bore into the stem and the adult weevils injure the leaves. Fifty-five species of birds occurring in the Southeastern States feed upon these insects. Those consuming the largest numbers are the kildccr, upland plover, nighthawk, crow, red-headed woodpecker, and the yellow-headed and crow blackbirds. Forty-three kinds of birds feed upon the army worms, pests destructive to corn and all small grains. Eighty-eight southeastern species devour cutworms, which are often the despair of grain growers and gardeners. Largest numbers of cutworms have been found in stomachs of the prairie chicken, bob-white, wood duck, woodcock, sparrow hawk, yellow-bill** cuckoo, nighthawk, red-headed | woodpccH?r. crow blackbird, meadowlark, cardinal, and robin. No insect enemy of torn and wheal ^ is more destructive than the -chirci . bug; when it is numerous, fields ari blasted as if by fire. It is often said ? that the chinch bug has few natural . enemies, but the work of birds, 21 . species of which feed upon chinch , bugs, should not be overlooked. Over ' 100 of these pests have been found in single stomachs of the bob-white and meadowlark, and over 200 in one of > a brown thrasher. Other birds consuming chinch bugs in considerable , numbers are the flicker, the crow, the barn, tree, and cliff swallows, and the house wren. The southeastern corn leaf beetle, a pest that has come to be of considerable importance in the past few years, is devoured by 22 kinds of birds. Those taking the largest numbers are the mocking bird, the Bewick wren, and the house wren. Among other corn insects may be mentioned the southern corn rootworm (or spotted cucumber beetle), eaten by 26 species of southeastern birds; beetles of a group including the cane root borer and the carrot beetle, devoured by 18 species; and the brown fruit-chafer, by 21. The lastnamed beetle feeds on apples, pears, and peaches, as does a related insect known as the southern fig eater. Fourteen species of birds prey upon the fig eater, the crow most extensively. The insect pests of clover and other forage crops in the Southeastern States also are sought by many birds. Perhaps more damage is done in the aggregate by leafhoppers than by other enemies of these crops. Exactly 100 species of southeastern birds are now known to feed on these small hut exceedingly numerous insect pests. Largest numbers of leafhoppers have been found in stomachs of the nighthawk, chimney swift, barn swallow, and yellow-headed blackbird. Clover is attacked by a number of insect in-aia, miiuiiiiik me imoncaieu-snout beetle and the various clover weevils. The first named is eaten by 20 kinds of birds, of which the crow, crow blackbird, and catbird seem most voracious. The common or large clover leaf weevil is the prey of 25 species of birds. The nighthawk, crow, redheaded woodpecker, purple martin, tnd crow blackbird have the best rec I ords for destruction of adults, and ..he Savannah and vesper sparrows of the larvae. The smaller clover weevils are eaten by 74 species of southeastern birds. Largest numbers of hesc weevils have been found in the stomachs of the robin, hermit thrush, tufted titmouse, and white-crowned sparrow, und of the following four species of birds, some representative of each which had consumed at one meal more than 50 individuals: Nighthawk, chimney swift, tree swallow, tnd purple martin. It is perhaps worth while to mention the bird predators upon certain insect enemies of truck crops. The destructive little cucumber flea beetle and its congeners, which feed on potato, tomato, sweet potato, eggplant, and tobacco, are preyed upon by Id species of southeasten^Urds. The sweet potato flea bM[^^V its allies have fS known htf^^Hntes in this section; the beetle, 21; f' 23' ?tui thv fouria in stomachs of 20 IipwJPTof Jrtrds, the notorious ColoradS&otatfc beetle in 26, and the periodStfbl cicada, or 17-year locust, in 38. of considerable importance in thtmBrth whose bird enemies it is well J^Hiention are the horseflies. These MB preyed upon by 49 species of souClGSbstern birds. The stomuch of one ftijldeer contained 40 horsefly larvae. The foMgoing demonstrates that many of thAfeWorst pests of southern agriculture enemies in the bird world. ThilfaHpects which have been considered'.etilifly are those destructive to grain and field crops; but among forest insects, fruit insects, and all the host that prey upon truck and garden crops, few can be mentioned that do not have important bird enemies. Farmers should recognize their friends and do all in their power to protect them. BOB-WHITE No bird is better known to country residents than the bob-white. The bird's cheery calls the year round form part of the most pleasant associations of country life, and its neat form and harmonious coloration, and especially its confiding habits, make it a general favorite. Any brushy fence row serves as a retreat for its nest, or for winter shelter, and weed-covered fields are its favorite feeding places. Weed seeds form more than half the total food and include those of all the worst weed pests of the farm. Among them may be mentioned crab, cockspur, witch, and foxtail grasses, sheep sorrel, smartweed, bindweed, lamb'squarters, pigweed, corn cockle, chickweed, charlock, partridge pea, beggei lice, nail grass, rib grass, ragweed and Spanish needles. Acorns, beechnuts, chestnuts, ant: pine seeds make up about 2.5 pei cent of the foot!, and wild fruits about 10 per cent. The fruits include ber ries of palmetto, smilax, wax, myrtle mulberry, sassafras, blackberries anc raspberries, rose haws, cherry, sumac grapes, sour gum, blueberries, honey .,...,1,1.. v..,?.,. nn,l .. ...... auv-iwe, of others. The bob-white feeds to t slight extent upon buds and leaves of yellow and red Borrel, cinquefoil and clover. Grain forms scarcely more than i sixth of the. food, but most of it i: taken during winter and early sprint . when nothing but waste grain is avail able. The habit of gleaning this af ^ ter the hqr-T i is, h nsSici^! ?.'a x /"arm, for volunteer grains is not de , sirable, especially where it serves t< I maintain certain insect and fungu I pests. Although most of the graii and seed crops grown upon the farn 1 are represented in bob-white's die . tary, no significant damage can be at ! tributed to the bird. I Animal food, chiefly insects, com poses nearly a sixth of the bird's sub sistence. From June to August, in elusive, when insects are most numer ?us, their proportion in the food if about 36 per cent. The variety of insect food is great and includes a number of the most destructive agricultural pests. Among them may be mentioned the Colorado potato beetle, 12-spotted cucumber beetle, bean leaf beetle, squash lady-bug, wireworms, May beetles, corn billbugs, clover leaf weevils, cotton boll weevil, army worm, bollworm, cutworms, and chinch bugs. The food habits of the bob-white undoubtedly are beneficial and the bird should be maintained in numbers on every farm. Its numbers should not be reduced below what the availible nesting sites and range will support. PEA SEED GOING TO BE SCARCE AND HIGH Clemson College, S. C., Dec.?Owing to unfavorable seasonable condition last July and August, there were not many peas made. In some sections there was a fairly good crop, but in many places the plants bore but few seed. This will make seed scarce and high next spring. Farmers who desire to plant many peas next summer, will do well to buy their seed now, and put them away carefully, thus saving having to pay a high price for them next spring. h*F? ? -.r Nature Do It r~ ~*\ Don't you see how she is working to get rid of your colds and catarrh?

C., Dec.?After a sufficient amount of seed has \ been selected, it should be properly j cured for. Too often farmers after ; taking the trouble and time to select by carelessness in putting it away, ; loose it all. The rats and micb, and weevils play havoc with it unless it is in a tight box or barrel. A clean, dry, molasses barrel is an excellent i thing in which to put the selected seed. A piece of wire gauze placed < over the top and fastened securely will keep out the rats and mice. The ( barrel of seed should be placed in a well ventilated and dry room. It will | be best to fumigate the seed with Carbon Bisulphide before storing, as this t will kill the weevils present and prevent them from multiplying. The seen snouhl be examined from time to ? time throughout the winter months, ,i and as soon as the weevils are no- ' ticed in it, Carbon Bisulphide should be applied.
