tains of Oregon.
Our party consisted of sixteen
persons travelling in two hacks, one
buggy, and one on horseback to open
gates, of which we passed through
six, and at last came to the pine
timber. Our road was not good
one. for it was very rocky, and we
rambled around among trees, and
stumps We had noticed a great
smoke up the mountain, before we
reached the timber, and at last we
came to place, where the trees and
stumps were still smoking from the

The road had checked the fire ant

The MIGRATION OF BIRDs-The
migration of birds is flying from the
north to the south as they do every
year. The migratory birds are the
red. headed woodpecker, the crow,
the American robin and screech owl.
The woodpecker is well known
through the United States. One can
hardly take walk through the woods
without hearing him hammering
away high up in dead tree we also
see him about the orchards where
he goes to catch the worms and in
sects he finds there. Although he
has a taste for fruit and has been &C
cused of dong injury. He really
does more good than harm. And
the middle of September he starts
for a warmer cline and usually travels
at night stopping during the day
time for food and rest We all know
the crow He is seen about the
fields and in the highest trees we have
found him stealing corn and wheat
although he does consider damage.
He builds his nest in a high tree
where it is almost impossible for bad
, BOYS to reach him. The American
robin is the best known native bird.
He belongs to the thrush family of
, which the mocking bird, cat bird and
brown thrush are members. And he is
larger than the red bird. He often be-
5 come quite tame, follows the farmers

| the soil and is real blessing to men
D We are welcome him as one of the
earliest birds of spring. He comes
e in March and April. He feeds or
C strawberries and cherries about :
4 month. The screech owl is sleepy
fellow and during the daytime hides
q away in dark woods and sits on
a limb all day long but when nigh
V comes he is lively bird. He file
s swiftly and feeds on mice and beetles
a He is one of our best friends.

DEATH OF BALDUR-B aldur was
the God of light, and all the other
Gods liked him because he was so
kind and good. One day he dream
ed that his life was in danger. When
his mother Frigga heard this she
went to all the things and made them
all swear that they would not injure
Balbur. When the Gods heard this
they invented game, and all went
to his house and threw their axes and
spears all around him. When Loki
heard this he dressed himself up as
an old woman, and went to visit
Frigga, Baldur's mother. When he
got there he said "What have all
things sworn not to injure Balbur 4"
Eyes" said Frgga, "All but little
mistletoe beyond Valhalla This is
what Lokl wanted to know, so he
took his leave of her and fastened
to Valhalla where the mistletoe grew.
He broke off bough and by magic
made spear of it Then he went
to Asquard where the gods were
throwing their weapons at Baldur
He went to Hodor and asked him
why he didn't throw something at
Baldur. Hodor said, 81 have nothing
to throw. Then Loki put in his hand
the misiletoe shear, aimed it for him
and told him to hurl it. Hodor not
suspecting any evil did as he was
told. The spear struck Baldur pierre
ed him through and he fell to the floor
with the blood flowing from his breast.
After they had walled while Odir
told them to mount their steeds, and
