(I’P)—Protect bird for without them the country would be overrun with insect pests, the agriculture department advises both rural and city dwellers. “Birds may be looked upon as an ever present force that automatically tends to check outbreaks of Insect pests, a force that should be kept at a maximum efficiency by protective measures so that their services may be utilized whenever possible,” the department said. Sparrows are noted for feeding on ants, cabbage bugs, army worms, ci»cadas, green bugs, alfalfa weevils, ahd caterpillars while Meadow larks eat grasshoppers and crickets. White breasted inuthatches reduce greatly the number of pear psylla and the codling moth. Goldflinches like plant lice and woodpeckers are among the most effective enemies of bark beetles, wood borers, the European corn borer, leopard and codling moths and many other woodland pests. Crows, blackbirds and grackles are fond of white grubs and wilt follow a

plow to get them in the spring. Forty-five species of birds have been fdund to feed extensively on the alfalfa, weevil while 66 attack the cotton bolt weevil. Mallard ducks have been effe.lively used in ponds for mosquito con trol, while blackbirds help Keep down boll worms and other pests. 0 _ DEMONSTRATION WELL ATTENDED Purdue Man Shows Cali Club Members How To Fit Calves For Show All but seven of the more than forty members of the first and second year dairy Atalf clubs attended one of Ae calf fitting demonstration - conducts Weduesday. by E.;A- Gannon of the Purdue Dairy Department.

t H HE DI) A HOYT TELLS * ....about... J FASHIONS for WOMEN R By Hedda Hoyt (U. P. Fashion Editor) I New York, July 8. —(UP)—Feather boas in pastel tones are worn with sports suits on the Pacific coast. It is reported that as many as five boas jof contrasting shades are sold to a I single customer. While felt hats are increasing in 'numbers at smart resorts, one sees them worn witli the all-white costume | and more frequently with printed linen coats anti dresses. , The sleeveless sports dress worn with a large bandana neckpiece which ties on one shoulder has made its appearance at Atlantic resor.s. Tan oxfords worn with red ribbon bows are being sponsored by well- ! dressed women. Black satin shoes are generally worn witli the dressy afternon gown except where the gown demands harmonizing footgear. Choker necklaces of semi-precious carved beads such as rosequartz, turquoise or amethyst are worn by the smart woman in preference to pearls. Handkerchiefs often are made of the gown material. This is true particcularly where the gown is of printed georgette or chiffon. The edging

is of ecru or black silk lace. Tiie bolero is used on muny gowns, often being fringed in Spanish effect. Large straw hats, simply trimmed outnumber all other types. Silk-fringed gowns outnumber beaded fringed models for evening wear. | White and pastel shades rule su- ' preme at present. Pinkish tones are ' second in preference to white. Gowns trimmed in self-fabric outnumber othier models. Chiffons, crepe satins and ; georgettes are the favored summer! evening materials. | One notices an absence of elaborate jewelry during summer months.
