One morning the men relatives of the families were allowed to come to the Mission House to see the work, and were most appre ciative, openly showing their ap proval.

Protect the Quail. Farmers in different sections of Pennsylvania have recently or ganized to - protect the quail on their farms. They do this in the belief that the quail is one of the best aids the farmer has among the insect-destroying birds. At this season of the year the cheerful whistle of "bob white" is heard in every part of this county outside the towns. Farm era report quail unusually abund ant this summer. Where they are protected, they become tame and are seemingly not alraid of human beings. It is only when the hunter gets after them that they become wild. It bas been said by persons who have studied the habits of quail that from June to Septem ber the quail's meal consists of one-third insects and two thirds seeds. It is really remarkable wiih what precision he picks out the insects that are the worst foes ot human food. The list con tains the most destructive crop and garden pests in America. It is probably the most efficient enemy ot the potato bug, and more than 100 potato bugs have been found in the crawht a single bird. They brobably kill 50 to 100 grasshoppers each day, and it will pay the farmers well to take some organized method of protecting them and seeing that they increase in number. The fact that it is the only known bird we have in this sec tion that eats potato bugs ought to matte every farmer its friends and protecto'N It is just as valu able to man as the robin and oth er insect eating birds. It should be taken from the list of game birds and not be killed at all. When the farmers of Pennsyl vanla fully realize what a benefit qual) are to them, they will de mand and secure the passage of of a Jaw prohibiting the killing of quail at any season. In the meantime every farmer has dominion over his own acres and can forbid the killing of quail on his farm. It should be done. WATERFALL.
