It in- volves the Gould family, famed in the financial and railroad history of America since Jay Gould left his tan- nery in northern New York and plunged into Wall Street. When he died, in 1892, he left an estate of $72,000,000. It is about this estate that the fight centers. Eminent counsel, including John Y. Davis, former American ambassador to Great Britaln, and president of the American Bar Association; Judge Alton B. Parker, former democratic candidate for President, and forty- elght other attorneys, are engaged in an attempt to construe the word to determine whether three children of e G J.

Birds and the Crops. Upon good crops hingas the na~ tion’s financial and ecomomic pros- perity. Farmers need birds, since the lepends upon e Magazine. They may increase bird life on their farms by establishing bird refuges. Expe- rience has shown that they can best do this by co-operating with a state game commission, an Audubon socle- ty, & bird club or a school. The farm- er donates his land and acts as war- den while the other party furnishes the bird houses and feeding stations. When birds frequent the roadsides they destroy insects on adjacent farm acres. It is a mistake to cut away all vegetation from country road- sides. Birds love to mest in wayside hedges.
