TWO SIDES TO THE CROW QUESTION. 243 



is wrong to eat chickens; or that robin babies 

 were made to live and grow up, and crow babies 

 to die of starvation ? The farmer ignores the mil- 

 lions of insects she destroys, and shoots her for 

 the one chicken she takes, though she has been 

 amply proved to be one of his most valuable ser- 

 vants. The kingbird and the oriole worry her 

 life out of her because her babies like eggs as 

 who does not! 



In fact, there are, emphatically, two sides to 

 the crow question, and I take the side of the 

 crow.
