MS CARE OF SPRING BIRDS
Birds are returning to the north from having wintered in the south and as a further means of eonserva- | tion. George N. Mannfeld, superintendent of the fish and game division of the state conservation department, urges citizens to attract them by Luilding bird houses. Thi- lloosier conservationist in a I ullet in rent today to several hundred] fish, yrame and bird protective clubs of this slate, called attention that birds are true friends of man and aid him in his daily struggles in manifold ways. Many birds are insect eaters and in the course of a year one bird will eonume many thousands of insects which damage food crops. Scientists tells us that insects where unmolested reproduce their kind at an astonishing rate and if natun did not maintain a balance through providing enemies of said insects, portions of the earth very likely would soon become uninhabitable. For instance, as illustration, a single pair of potato bugs, if permitted to increase their number without molestation, would in the course of a single year, produce a progeny of sixty million. Insects are the natural food of many birds and if Indiana is made safe and attractive to these feathered friends, we may expect huge returns from these industrous but unpaid lahorers.

Willis as the nation's foremost dry,” declared Dr. E. S. Shumaker, superintendent of the Indiana Anti-Saloon league hen- today in commenting on the sudden death of the Ohio leader. “Of course, there is Senator William E. Borah and Senator Now's, both good drys and among the Democrats Senator Morris Sheppard of Texas, but I think Senator Robinson will best fill the place ot leadership among the drys that Senator Willis held,” Shumaker said. “Senator Willis, who was an intimate friend of mine, was the cleanest most courageous man of fine moral fiber that this generation or any either generation ever produced," Shumaker stated. U. S. Senator Arthur R. Robinson and Mrs. Robinson, both of whom were students under Senator Willis at Ohio Wesleyan University at Ada, Ohio, were shocked by the report of his death. “Senator WilHs was a conscientious public servant, patriotically devoted to the welfare of his country,” Senator Robinson said.
