ARKANSAS KINGBIRD Tyrmnnua vertical i Length, nine inches. The white edge of the feather on each side of the tail distinguishes this from all other flycatchers except the gray and salmon-colored scis3ortail of Texas. Range: Breeds from Minnesota, Kansas, and Texas to the Pacific ocean and from northern Mexico to southern Canada; winters from Mexico to Guatemala. Habits and economic status: The Arkansas kingbird is not so domestio as its eastern relative and seems to prefer the hill country with scattered oaks rather than the orchard or the vicinity of ranch buildings, but it sometimes places its rude and conspicuous nest in trees on village streets. The bird's yearly food is composed of 87 per cent animal matter and 13 per cent vegetable. The animal food is composed almost entirely of Insects. Like the eastern species, it has been accused of destroying honeybees to a harmful extent, and remains of honeybees were ound to constitute five per cent of the food of the Individuals examined, but nearly all those eaten were drones. Bees and wasps, in general, are the biggest item of food (38 per cent), grasshoppers and crickets stand next (20 per cent), and beetles, mostly of noxious species, constitute 14 per cent of the food. The vegetable food consists mostly of fruit, such as the elder and other berries, with a few seeds. This bird should be strictly preserved.

HELP OF AMERICA ENABLES SWISS TO WITHSTAND WAR GENEVA (via Paris), June 8. Professor William Rappard of Geneva University, in an address delivered at the university said that, thanks to America, Switzerland had been able to exist during the war. Professor Rappard, who was formerly a member of the Harvard faculty, is one of the experts who will accompany Hans Sulzer, the new Swiss minister to Washington, In order to clear up the economic situation between the United States and Switzerland. The professor declared that, if Switzerland s imports of cereals from America had increased, it was due to the fact that the Swiss were obliged to feed Luxembourg, part of Belgium, and many thousand prisoners both in Germany and interned in Switzerland. He blamed hostile German propaganda in America for the misunderstanding between the two republics

The party made the trip on scheduled time. It was learned today that the government had advices yesterday that the vessel on which they crossed was on time. and expressed the hope that the Swiss commission would counteract the evil influence.

Interrupted wire communication caused by storms pre vented early reports in many states. Estimates based on complete returns from seven states and the District of Columbia indicated a registration of about 4 per cent. leEs than census estimates of eligibles. About half, of the men registered stated conditions on which exemptions might but will not necessarily be based. The complete working out of the exemption regulations and the appointment of exemption boards. Secretary Baker said, will precede the issuance cf regulations to govern the selection of men for examination. He had no comment to make on the selection process beyond the statement that a fair system would be adopted. - Exemption boards probably will be situated as much as possible so as to make it easy for selected men to get to the place of examination without interfering any more than is absolutely necessary with their regular occupations. Care will be taken also to hasten a decision in each case, and to keep selected men in suspense no longer than necessaryBRITISH GONTINUE AIR BOMBARDMENT LONDON, June 8 The British are continuing vigorously their aerial operations over .

The board of directors, advisory committee and trustees or the Commercial Club, last night decided "to use the $100,000 fund for thie purpose." "Incubating" is the word that best describes the proposed building. .It will accommodate the smallest concerns employing from ten. to .fifty, men. They may grow until they are able to erect a building of their own., When .they leave the building, room will be made for others., At present there are many. Richmond concerns operating; in lotts barns, and under the. most adverse conditions. ; ; , This industrial plant will, not have to bonus concerns, for they will, glad ly pay rent. Large Industries taai; are desirable, are far too busy to come to Richmond, so it has been decided tha "baby" ones must be induced to come. A committee will visit the privately owned Incubating plants at Springfield, O., and Indianapolis. Data will be gathered and a meeting of all sub' scribers to the Industrial Development Fund will be held soon. Details will be worked out at that time. -. .i r AMERICA MUST EAT LESS, SAYS HOOVER v.-ishixrton'. June 8. In a -rei ncrt tn the government lust made pnb- ! lie, Herbert C.
