1t must. be remembered that Britain is
essentially an agricultural country, and
that if its fauna is diminutive one it is
none the less formidable. We have ten
tiny field creatures, constituting an army
in themselves, that if not kept under
would quickly devastate our fields. These
ten species consist of four mice three voles
and three shrews. Individually so tiny
are these that any one species could COM
fortably curl itself up in the divided shell
of horse chestnut.
But farmers well know that if these
things are small they are by no means to
be despised. Now that the corn crops are
cut and the hay housed the field vole and
the meadow mouse are deprived of their
summer shelter. Of this the barn owl is
perfectly aw are, and at evening he may be
seen sweeping low over the meadows seek
ing whom he may devour.-COrnhillM Maya
