FRIDAY EVENING, JAN. 27, 1892.
Onr Winged Friends."
An Kesay Head Before the Pennsylvania
Fruit Growers' Society at Harrlsburg,
January 18, 1882. by Simen
P. JBby.
Conclusion.
The woed-peckerfamily have been voted
great scamps fruit-stealing, sap-suckinc
rascals a proper target for every idle boy,
who could handle an old rusty gun, te
blaze away at.
Of late years their usefulness has be
come better understood and a iaw enacted
te save them from total extermination.
They are the police of the trunk and
uoedu part of our timber, fruit and shade
trees'. In fact, te us, the red-headed wood weod woed
peckor does net seem unlike a liveried
policeman patrolling his beat, up and down
and aieund the trunk, and out along the
limbs of some old tree, tapping and rat
tling for concealed marauding insects, and
dragging them from their hiding places
without mercy when discovered,
AVe have frequently noticed the trunks
of old apple trees punctured in a regular
sucessien of circles ; or have seen spots as
large as a hand where the bark seemed
dead riddled like the bottom of a colander,
all the work of this or a smaller speckled
weed-pecker, known as the sap-sucker, in
their efforts te dislodge the insects under
the bark.
Shall these faithful servants be denied a
few of the fruit of the trees they help t
save '.'
A few years age we observed several
Scotch pines in one of our cemeteries
treated in this manner, and the resinous
sap exuding and filling the punctured cir
cles. Surely, we thought, this time the
bird could have been after ue honest pur
pose, and deserved the bad name it bore.
Beheld, in the following spring one of the
pines was dead ; and taking a friend with
us, we examined into the cause aud found
the inner bark of the upper part of the
trunk and ofsemo of the larger limbs re
duced te the condition of fine sawdust,
having been entirely eaten by worms.
Here the borers had been tee numerous or
the tree tee far gene. The ether pines
were no doubt saved by the timely inter
ference of this nmch-slaudered bird.
Closely allied in habits of life te the
weed -pecker are the titmice and chickadees,
of which ornithologists report three as
visitants te this country. They feed en
insects aud the eggs of moths deposited en
and in the crevices of the bark aud In the
buds of trees and shrubs.
During breeding season they are busy
through the whole day in eapLuring vast
quantities of catcrpillcrs, Hies and grubs.
" It has been calculated," says Air. Sam
uels, " that a pair of these birds destroy
en the average net less than live hundred
of these pests daily."
"The chickadee trips along the
branches, trips under every leaf, swings
round upon his perch, spies out every in
sect and secured it with a peck se rapid
that it is hardly perceptible."
Last but net least in our list conic some
of our best known aud most reliable
friends. Prominent among which are the
brown thrush, or mocking bird, robin, cat
bird, black-bird, meadow-lark, chippiug chippiug
sparrew, song-sparrow and iiidige-biid.
These feed en small fruit, seeds and ber
ries, as well as en insects, grubs and
worms. They help themselves te some of
our early fruit, and in that way some
times auuey us. Still if an account could
be made up of what they take, and the
geed they de, the balance would show
largely in their favor.
They compensate us in still another way ;
they cheer us with their presence and
songs ; for amongst them arc some of the
most talented musicians. Unlike the
oriole aud virce, which carol while they
labor, this class lay aside ether duties
when they address themselves te song. As
cending some elevated perch aud ceneeu
trating all tiieir vocal powers, they pour
forth their strains of melody, as if it were
te listening audience.
Mounted en the topmost spray of a
neighboring tree or bush, the brown
thrush welcomes the farmer planting seed
at early morning with cries of " drop it,
drop it, cover it up, cover it up. Pull it
up, pull it up ; sec, sec, see ; there you
have it, there you have it ; work away,
work away ; cover it up."
This bird, although often seen in the
orchard and pasture field, generally builds
his nest in the neighboring thicket and
seems partial te sprout laud, or weeds
having uudergrewth,
A few years age, we considered our
selves highly favored wheu a pair selected
a small evergreen upon the lawn for their
nesting place, and we gave strict erdeis
for no one te go near while the work was
progressing, but unfortunately r.emc un
known encmy must have diseeverd them,
ler one day we found the eggs broken and
the nest deserted.
Of the robin a writer in the Atlantic
Monthly says : " I shall net ask pardon for
assigning te him the highest rank as a
singing bird, while ethcis may surpass
him in some particular qualities ; tl.c
notes of the robin arc all melodious, all
delightful loud without vociferation .mel
low without monotony, fervent without
ecstasy, aud combining mere mellowness
of toue, plaintivcncss, chcerfuluess and
propriety of execution than these of any
ether bird. Without his sweet notes the
mornings would be like a vernal landscape
without flowers, or a summer evening sky
without tints."
After the neon-day heat has silenced
the early performers, the song sparrow,
chippiug sparrow aud iudige bird continue
te sing at intervals during the greater part
of the day.
The song sparrow has been assigned a
high place among siuging birds. His song
is certaiuly very soft aud sweet, witheu t a
harsh note in it. We hear it mostly from
the hedge rows, aud along the edges of
giaiu or pasture fields.
The sprightly little indigo bird, selects
the highest twig of some tall tree in the
vicinity of his nest te pour out his noon
day song.
Last and least is the chipping sparrow,
greeting us from the fence pests, along
the highways and country lanes, with its
peculiar but pleasant little song net un
like that of a summer lesust.
Having thus spoken in behalf of some of
our "winged friends" as time would allow,
leaving, however, many of them unmcu unmcu
tieued, and many of the geed things
which might be said in their favor unsaid;
the next question naturally suggests it
self : Hew cau we best preserve these
winged institutions, which have become
interwoven with some of our earliest and
happiest recollections of rural life, and
hand them down te posterity unimpaired?
The weeds, of course, have ever been
the great nursery for birds. We de net
mean the endless forests, which at one
time covered this country, but belts of
timber with plenty of uudergrewth lyin.-C
between farms, adjoining the eultivated
laud, and along the streams. These gave
plenty of room and material for nests,
were within convenient reach of the sun
light of the Holds and the feed there
found ; at the same time there was some
protection from man against birds of prey.
As our weeds are cleared away we
should endeavor te provide ether shelter ;
by saving the trees, wherever possible,
upon the farm ; by planting thickets of
eung timber in such places where the
laud cannot be profitably cultivated.
Hedge-rows become geed nesting places
ter the smaller kinds of birds, and afford
piotectieu when pursued by hawks. Ever
greens planted for ornament or protection
oftentimes attract birds. The summer
Ik.i: . : ii building en the lawn or in
the eichaid is generally selected by the
robin for a nesting place.' Se the shrubbery
knrl limlittirr virtPR nrminrl thf limis
should be at the service of the chipping
sparrow and warblers. The orchard of
course we expect te have its full .share of
nests, and the elm, or weeping willow, or
the old pear tree, te have one of its droop
ing limbs graced with an oriole's ham
mock. A row of boxes should be put up
against the south or east side of the house
for the martins ; shclvings under the forc ferc
bav for the swallow, and an opening iu the
upper part of the barn for them te pass
in and out freely, should they fancy that
part of the building. Such chimneys as
arc net used in the summer should be Jeft
uncovered for the chimney swallows.
Bexes should be put up against the out
buildings, and en the sheltered side of
trees, for the blue-bird and wren ; se that
the whims of these our geed fairies may
be properly humored.
When these accommodations arc pro
vided and the birds happily de come te
occupy them, or some of them, de net in
tcrfere with their housekeeping nor suffer
anyone else te molest them, whether it be
thoughtless man cr sneaking cat. De net
apprech their nests unnecessarily nor al
low anyone else te de se ; remember this
i ; a tender point with all birds, and will
cause them te change residence very seen.
De net allow the English sparrow te take
possesien of the boxes aud drive the ethers
out.
One mere .sutrirestieu aud I am done. If
there is no running water en your farm or
iu the vicinity, provide a place for the
birds te drink, and where they can get
soft material te build nests. Swallows and
maitius love te skim near the surface of
the water and take an occasional dip.
Kebins and cat-birds will help themselves
at the water trough in the barn-yard, but
tint mere shy birds, like the brown thrush,
will net venture that far. Water should
be kept for their use in a mere secluded
place.
A cheap bird fountain can be made
with an old demijohn or carboy, which
can be had at a drug or liquor store for a
trifle.
Select a suitable shady spot frequented
by the birds aud where they will net be
disturbed. Place a trough or ether shal
low vessel en the ground 'r drive stakes
for the demijohn te rest upon iu an in
verted position se that its mouth will
nearly touch the bottom of the trough and
held it in that position, then fill the demi
john and turn it upside down upon the
slakes. The water will run out aud keep
the trough jpartly filled until the supply
in the demijohn is all used ; en the same
principle as a small bird fountain.
We had a fountain made in this manner
with a live gallon demijohn which an
swered the purpose admirably, aud re
quired refilling about once a week. The
depth of the water can be regulated by
raising or lowering the mouth of the
demijohn.
Aud new with your " winged friends "
properly cared for, yourselves cheered
aud comforted by their presence and
grateful song, your eiehaids saved from
the ravages of insects and their golden
fruit safely stored away for winter use,
you may live as contented and happy as it
i-, possible for mortals te be.

his numerous friends and patrons knew that
in a tew months he will establish etliccs in

te the afflicted, the chronic cases or disease, te
test OMNIPATHY before it Is tee late. Dr.

January 1st. 1S80, made up largely from these
turned away as incurable by ether M. I).?.
Over 1,500 deaths have occurred under ethers'
practices, and net a half-dozen using his reme
dies. Most or the 1,500 have died prematurely.
Physicians have lest their wives, brothers and
sons, and druggists their wives and children
during this time. Over 1.000 persons have been
cured, and all benefited, by Ids metheds.with a
few exceptions. His claim is simply te euro all
the various lllsetmanklnd by external applica
tions of remedials, and that he does net make
a drug shop of the stomach, and he will before
leaving publish a large pamphlet containing
hundreds et cames et persons cured in tills
city and county, many et them very extraor
dinary. A banker's wife cured et sick head
ache et ever thirty-five years, and her glasses
removed, reading and sewing with natural
vision. Mr. Sutter, of 329 Middle street, cured
et 5 years terrible annoyance of dyspepsia, in
one day. Epileptic Fits et twenty years cured
In one week. Tumors, Cancers and Cataracts
removed without any naln or use et the knife.
SMAIXPOX 1 this frightful disease is all around

is a sure preventive of thisloatliesemealtlic
