The Prairie Chicken.

In some respects the game bird of
the plains changes his habits with his
habitat. Especially is this noticeable
dauiring the breeding season. The
prairie chicken in Illinois will lay its
eggs aud rear its young in the same
field where it will be hunted after in
the season. But in the Platte Valley,
in Nebraska, it makes its nest on the
islands, These islands are low, fringed
with brush and covered with luxuriant
grasses that are not cut until late in the
autumn. Here there is absolutely no
danger Of molestation from man, and
prairie fires are comparatively unknown.
Late fires cook probably one-third Of
the eggs that are laid on the uplands.
