suLL-BIRDS; r VALUABLE AIDS 44 1 iiigl stn Meadow. larks, Sparrows, ;lVreiis - and Titmice Leaders in Ex- terminating Boll Weevils 0 The department of agriculture, through its. biological survey is . trying to convince the farmersof the United States of the fearful damage they are bringing against - themselves every year c by the . wholesale slaughter of ; the boll weevil killing birds. ; : 'Arthur L". Howell, assistant to the biological survey, has recent- r ly made r a careful study of this matter, v He finds that the; most important birds,.,so far as the destruction of the boll weevil is concerned, are the blackbird, the meadowlark, the sparrow, the , titlark, the, wren and the titmice. These little birds, Mr. Howell , says, are the best weevil destroy ers' that can be found the world over, if man will only put up the ever-present shotgun and not al low the boys on the farm; to ex terminate them and to rob the nests of egg3 in springtime. - . The region now infested by , the cotton boll weevil includes the greater vpart of the cotton grow- . ing area of Texas and Louisiana and parts of Oklahoma, Arkan sas and Mississippi. Texas and Louisiana produced in 1906 over ,000,000 bales of cotton, valued at upward of $276,000,000. The loss occasioned by the weevil is variously estimated I in different localities at from 10 to 50 per cent of the crop, or even more in badly infested areas. ' Even at the lowest reasonable estimate, the loss to the cotton planters of Texas' and Louisiana from the ravages of the pest yearly aggre gate many millions of dollars. As the weevil extends its range eastward into the more humid ' regions of the Mississippi valley, the damage it does will be pro portionacely greater than in the drier regions to the westward. There are thirty species of birds that are known to eat the boll weevil in winter and the ser vice rendered by the little army in feathers is little appreciated. "Put up the gun" is the slogan of the agricultural department. It has watched the birds eat the weevil, found what they could ; if let alone, and only allowed to live, and a strong plea is made to the man in the country as well as in 4;he town to stop killing i them, and then the ravages of the pest that is year by year damaging the. cotton crop of the United States .

When the aaimal bites through clothing there is little or no danger of infection The virus is on the teeth of . the animal and when the person' bit- ten has received the wound through a layer of clothing there lis little danger." The virus on the teeth is left in. the clothing and is not ; com municated to the person -bitten. Rabit dogs or other animals, are not like reptiles; they have no hollov teeth through which- poi son may be communicated. - It must be introduced directly into the system of the victim. i "Therefore when a supposedly rabid dog bites a person,4 if the bite is not on an exposed part of the body be should have no fear Washington Post. - ; i " Just Exactly Right "I have used Dr. King's New Life Pills for several years, and find them just ' exactly right,'' says A.

High living, wining and dining, late nights and irregular habits were some of . the: causes attrib uted ty,Dr. Jackson for the rap id spread of appendicitis. x 'The whole question devolves itself into one of whether we ae not exceeding the-; speed limit of living, ' ' he aid.r 4 'I, for one, believe that we are. tin fact, it has been scientifically d etermin ed that we are living too high. And that is one of the greatest causes of appendicitis, the mal ady which is bound to grip every body in this country if the con ditions and circumstances are hot changed. "Now this idea of after-theatre suppers causes as much ap pendicitis as anything else. What chance has a man's stomach and appendix when he 'persists in loading himself up with; rich foods late at night? None'at all. As a rule, the appendix is one portion of the human anatomy that is peaceable and: good-natured as long as it is treated right. The minute it commences to get crowded it rises up and rebels strenuously. , - 4A largk amount of 'rich food taken into the stomach causes a certain disturbance and inflam mation to - set ( in which extends through to the intestines in poor working order, the inflammation rapidly envelops the appendix, much pain ' is caused, and the quickest and best remedy is to have it cut out just as soon as a surgeon can be reached.
