The crows, however, are not nearly so numerous as during former years and it is believed the crow bounty has had the effect of driving many thousands of them away. W. R. Shesler reports that while plowing a few days ago he was followed by a large number of English sparrows, which scanned the freshly turned soil and captured the cutworms and other larvae that are so destructive to corn Mt. Shesler does not regard the sparrow as deserving the bad name it has secured and thinks it should be given credit with some work in the cornfields.
