made the subject of methodical scien- |
tific investigation by the Department of
Agriculture, and Uncle Jerry Rusk and
his secretary, Mr.. LaDow, are understood
TO be deeply interested spectators.
Professor Walter b. Barrows is con-
Quoting the investigation, and in good
time will furnish his conclusions for a
bulletin, to be issued by the department. I
There is much more to be learned about
the crow than appears at a casual glance.
| II is only since the establishment of the
/ division of economic ORTHODOXY in
the Department of Agriculture, that
birds have been properly looked after,
! and their real value or detriment to the
agriculturist ascertained. They are now
weighed in the scientific balance, and if
the beam kicks in their favor, so much
the better for their future enjoyment of
life and pursuit of happiness. Among
the important points regarding the crow,
which need TO be settled, are the follow
ing:
viii crows eat corn if they can find
nothing they like better?
Is it worth while for farmers to try
and kill crows by soaking the corn in
poison?
Can crow swallow seed-corn if it is
first rolled in tar and ashes!
Will spraying corn with Riley nozzle
| with an emulsion of soap and kerosene
! kill the corn or the crow?
Is il too late in the nineteenth century
10 resort to the use Of scare crowsg In
, other words, will crows scare worth q
cent at this late day of universal pro
a gress and enlightenment
! Can more be said in favor of the crow
than against it!
Is ii better for the agricultural inter
ests of the country to exterminate th'
i crow?
n And If the crow is to be exterminated
how shall the determination be accomp
lisheds
. Is the crow rapacious, graminivorous
r insectivorous, young-and-tender-chi
Q. iyorous. and omnifarious all at once an
m the same time?
If so, why so?
y Does the crow ever say rats" or ga
y mice?
ID At the season of modification will tn
e. crow destroy the eggs and young of othe
is birds?
e. Does the crow drop the seeds of rhr
ct toxicodendron, or poison ivy, broadcai

he What about the crows roosting places
nt Where are they situated: Will it
an worth while for the Census Bureau
K. procure a list of the roosts and the nun
n, Der of roosters?
he How about the national convention
they are said to holdg Is there anythir
If. of a sensational nature in their procee
d, ings?
IN Is it true that crows are so wicked
Is: to indulge in prize fights?
a. Do crows, in some parts of the worl
an drill after the manner of our State II
his litiaG
.es If they do, why do they?
ar How far will crow fly 20 get
an breakfast?
IN Is sand to be recommended as an

crow always gulps down mouthful

In the ClOufls.

Professor Moller, of Carlsruhe, has
made some interesting observations on
clouds. The highest clouds, cirrus and
oiERo-stratus, rise on an average to a
haight OF nearly $4,000 feet. The mid
die clouds keep at from 10000 feet tc
$4,000 feet In height, while the lower
clouds reach to between 5000 feet ana
1000 feet. The cumulus clouds float
with their lower surface at height q
from A,O00 to 5000 feet. while theil
SUBMITS rise to $1,000 feet. The tops Of
the Alps are often hidden by clouds OF
the third class. but the bottoms Of the
clouds Of the second class, and espe
cially of the thunder clouds, often enfold
them.
The vertical dimension of cloud OBJ
served by Professor Moller on the Netle-
berg was over 1900 feet. He stepped
out Of it at height of about 3,70O feet,
and high above the mountain foated
clouds Of tho middle class, while wells of
mist lay in the ravines and clefts. The
upper clouds were growing thicker,
while the lower ones were dissolving,
and soon it began to rain and snow

in this fatality. He gave it away in this
wise: While consulting man in deli.
