His Presence May Indicate the Coming of

The return of our summer birds, after

says the Boston Journal. But it is doubt
full il nearly rs many people ever note down
the dates on which our birds leave in the

would have predictions of cold or mild

birds, such an the arctic owl. The arctic

gions not very far to the northward of us.

An explanation of why the presence of
the owl in this latitude foretells a cold
winter is as follows: The bird is, without
doubt, driven here by strong gales. Now it
is obvious that there would be no gales If
.Ward-colder than the air in this latitude.
because it is further from the equator. As
the sur moves southwark (a%pparently) this
cold body of air always presses southwark:
whenever opportunity offers at any point
along it's southern boundary it comes with
generally as clearing gales following a
storm. Thus the presence Of the arctic
owl proves that this great body of cold air
lies not far to the north of US. and as the
advances rushes of cold air in the
form of gales from northern points will fire.
