kind of pets, then there is room for pet
carrier pigeons Who will take the first step?
He who will, will do his tellow-beings ami
b dmanity great benefit, and might oe the
hum Die instrument Of saving thousands of lives
upon the ocean.
Now, then, fact or two. First-we give
an instance where a pigeon has flown 2OOO
miles. That's two-thrds of the way ron Ne "
York to Liverpool; say at the rate of sixty
miles an hour, which the carrier would fly, it
would take only 80 hours to deliver message
from that point that is, TO send 1t to New York,
and, as Liverpool is only 1000 miles distant, it
would only take 165 hours to deliver the mes
sage in that port. second-As hawks are
rarely, If ever seen at sea, 1t is not at all likely
the carrier would be inter(ered with. Third
The cost of them and feeding is but mere tri6a.
They would increase on shlpboard, and would
pay for themselyes million tunes over.
