infests corn at that period and the
blue jay is the one that really does
the damage. Next on the list is the
brown field sparrow. They partly
subsist on insects, weeds and grass"
Seeds make out the rest of his bill
of fare. These little birds are of the
greatest help and are the most preyed
upon by cats, dogs, rats, and snakes.
The brown builds a tennel nest like a
partridge on the ground, and the field
sparrow on bush or briar, and farm
ers are very careful in summer not to
destroy them.
There is yet the robin which is a
great Insect destroyer but loves fruit
as well. The red bird, the thrust

dove and crow, all of them which us
ually pay for all the fruit that they
