S. well hold asocial ev- ening in the basendent, on Friday, Feb. 9th. A speaker from the Department of Education, Toronto, ' will address a public meeting in the parish hall here on Thursday •eventing, Feb. &th, at 8. A meadow lark will eat each day weed seeds and insects in quantity greater than its own body weight. Four ounces of weed seeds or young grasshoppers each day on an average for the year would mean the destruc- tion of over 90 pounds m u year. Twenty meadow larks on the farm would consume a ton of weed seed during the year. A ton of weed seed gathered fromthe fields may seem like delivering a large ord•'r, but a little flock of meadow larks will do it. Are such birds worth protecting? If you saw a little meadow lark perched be- side a hundred pound sack of weed seeds, the gathering of which repre- sented his year's work, don't you think your heart would soften and you would spare the bird's life? The normal man who appreciates a good friend will not injure nor will he permit any one else to injure the insect and weed destroying birds of our meadow lands. The Robin No Mere Fruit Thief. • Is the robin a cherry thief? No, this bird has a perfect right to satisfy his hunger by consuming a few cher- ries In season in the orchard where he. works as an insect destroyer for six months of the year' witnout any wage contract. The few cherries and other domestic fruits that robins take during June and July make up less• than one-third of their food for that short period. During all the rest of the season, lerom March to October, the robin feeds largely on insects that infest the orchard and garden. If it were not for the good work of the robin; ' many attempts at vegetable production would fail: Vegetable gar- dens and small fruit plantations are largely at the mercy of the cut -worm. Redbreast a Great Devourer. of Cut- korms. • The robin is the best cut -worm hunter that we have. His daily capac- ity when the hunting is good and there are hungry nestlings to feed, is not less than 300 cut -worms per d5,y. Any bird that will destroy 300 cut -worms, each dayduring the seas son when/the garden vegetables are getting started is certainly worthy of the respect of all people. The taking. of a few cherries or an odd straw- berry by the robin is just to change the taste, in his mouth after consum- ing so many wiggly worms. Be broad-minded, and protect the robin; Only the meanestof narrow-minded people will destroy such a useful bird,, Protecting Fruit From Birds. If every single cherry must be re' served for sale, and robins abound, cover the tree with wire netting or old fish net or else put up a cherry clack or old auto horn. in the tree. The period of cherry raiding is short, since the birds -prefer the wild fruit frim . 'severe colds. Mr.and Mrs, D.
