Disappearance of Birds which Uaeo
10 Flock in MiHH01rI Woods.
The Wild pigeon no longer visits
southwest Missouri with the return OF
the mast season, as formerly, reports
the Kansas City journal. Years ago
the woods of the Ozark region were fun
of these birds from October TO Janu-
ary. A pigeon rooSt was the wonder
and delight of the pioneer hunter. Mil
lions OF the birds would gather in some
thick forest at the approach OF night
From all directions and for miles away
dense hoclls of pigeons could be seen fy-
ing toward the roost. The unerring
instinct of the birds guided them to the
place. and by sundown the hutter OF
countless wings sounded like an APP
proaching storm in the vicinity of the
roost. Hunters killed the birds by the
thousands, for in roost no skill was
required to shoot pigeons. A shotgun
fired into any tree or bush at random
never failed to bring down game. The
ground was often nearly covered with
dead and wounded birds after a volIey
had been fired into tree loaded down
with pigeons. Hogs fattened on tha
crippled birds left in the woods, and
hawks, owls, foxes and other wild ami
mails had u continual feast. The last
pigeon roost OF any Importance near
Springfield was not far from Hopewelt
church, south of the James river, about
"a years ago. The birds occupied a
thick oak forest covering several acres,
and remained three OF four weeks.

appreciated. ..... DIR. Perkins and
