Irsectivorous swallows would per.
ish every year did they not repair
to warm region as soon as the
frOsts begin to nip the flies they
subsist upoG. Their average speed
on the wing when flying for win
ter retreat is believed to be at least
fifty miles an hour. Therefore it
would not take a swallow or black
bird long to reach Louisiana or Tex
as from New England or the State
of New York. When the wind is
favorable their fight is far more
rapid. Spallanzi calculated that
swallow, at its full speed, could go
nmetytWo miles an hour. An elder
duck, dRHds HOiiiSimd. flies ninety
miles an hour; hawks and some
other broad-Wingcd birds have 10
speed of one hundred miles an hour.
Wild geese, it has been satisfac-
torily ascertained, fly from Georgia

without visible objects to guide them
at the great height in the air to
which they mount, they settle down
in open rivers, ponds, fields, etc,
and if unmolested, remain several
days till the atmosphere becomes
clear, when they again soar into re-
gions above and take their vending
way north. Birds must have some
method of communicating their i'll
tentions to each other. How else
