THE VIDALIA ADVANCE
GEORGIA SENATOR CALLED
FARMER’S GREAT FRIEND
Out-of-state newspapers point to the
fact that United States Senator Wm.
J. Harris of Georgia is a friend of
the American farmer in spirit and in
truth.
Mention is made of the fact that
long before Senator Harris was elect
ed to the senate of the United States
and took the exalted chair of Robert
Toombs, Benjamin Harvey Hill and
John B. Gordon, he was noted as a
strong advocate of the farmers’ cause.
A bill by Senator Harris which
passed the national senate recently
broadens the government warehouse
act in authorizing the department of
agriculture to extend the list of farm
commodities which may be stored in
government licensed warehouses and
also classified store products.
Discussing the bill in a statement
gjiven out recently, Senator Harris
said recently that he felt assured that
the bill will give the farmers larger
loans on their store products, and will
also extend their credit privileges with
bankers and business concerns.
In considering the matter of the
extension of the commodities which
may be stored, it will be recalled that
this list is now limited to imperishable
products. It is the purpose of the
bill to extend it to semi-perishable
products.
The Harris measure has been com
mended, not only by the daily and
weekly newspapers of Georgia, but by
many of the larger dailies throughout
the South.

ROBIN A PUBLIC BENEFACTOR
Hard to Estimate What the Country, •
as a Whole, Owes to Industrioua j
Small Bird.
There are robins throughout the j
land. Every morning at daybreak a j
wave of robin song rolls across the j
United States from the Atlantic to v j
the Pacific. Who does not recognize ]
this cheering lay as that of our old j
friend, Robin Redbreast? Neverthe- j
less, he is not a robin at all. The real 1
robin is a little red-breasted resident
European bird about the size of a blue- 1
bird, and our robin is really a large J
migrating thrush. But the Pilgrim Fa- •
tiiers found it here, and as it reminded j
them of the English robin, they named «
it robin in memory of the little feath- \
ered friend in the old home; and, all •
ornithologists to the contrary notwith- ]
standing, the name sticks. •
One of the first things the robin
does when it comes home in spring and •
settles down for the summer is to look I
for a mate, if not already mated, and •
then to begin to build a nest. As it ,
raises two or three broods in a season, *
it must begin early and the nest must J
be constructed to withstand storm, : *
frost and cold. So the little architect .
makes the walls of mud and finishes i
and lines it with nonconductive mate- J <j
rials to keep in the heat and keep out ’
the cold. If the weather is favorable. ,
the nest is soon built, but if storms pre- |j
vail it is long in building and some- «j
t!ines Is forsaken altogether for an-
other constructed under more auspi- j
cious skies. <j
When the little blind, naked, help- *j
less nestlings have broken the 6hell jj
and been carefully brooded for a time, *i
the struggle to nnd food enough to
fill those hungry caverns within begins, j
Now the robin becomes a benefactor
of mankind, for every day and every j
hour of the day those yawning mouths |j
must be filled with worms, grubs, cut- j
worms, caterpillars and many kinds j
of destructive insects. He brings them j
to the nest, from one to twelve at a .1
time, and in rearing two or three 4
broods he slays his thousands of our J
insect foes. —State Ornithologist of j
Massachusetts. j
