Not fish story, but dove story. A
few days ago as the church sexton was
moving about the church he thought it
would be well to make an examination
of the steeple and see how large a
family of doves inhabited it. He did not
learn just how many there was in the
family, but he did find almost three
barrels of manure, or Vermont guano,
which he removed to be used in place OF
phosphate.
