Dates at which These niras were
Imported Into This Country.
| have been asked several times late
ly at what date the common English
sparrows were imported into the Unit
ed States and by whom.
Ii seems that the first attempt was
made In 1858 by a private citizen Of
Portland, Me. In the fall of that year
he liberated six sparrows, and they i'm
meolatcly made themselves at home
IN his garden and outbulldlngs. For n
Few years these birds and their de-
scehuants were seen I'm and about the
town In small squads. These birds
multiplied until in the winter Of 1871
a hock of them appeared I'm every near
by town, thus showing their tendency
to spread over adjoining territory.
About 1850 II birds were imported
ina liberated near Madison square.
New York city, and this was repeated
for several seasons.
In 1864 the commissioners of New
York liberated II birds I'm Central park.
About this time numerous persons re-
turning from abroad brought few
birds home and set them nt liberty in
and about Jersey City.
The craze for importing these birds
spread, and in 1868 the city govern.
ment of Boston imported n great mum.

and others were brought over. The
birds which survived from these va
rious importations were carefully fed
and looked after by the city govern
mcnt.
In 1860 n thousand were imported
anu liberated in the city OF Phlladel-
phia, and soon the birds spread over
all adjacent territory.
About this time the Smithsonian in
stitution became interested I'm bringing
these birds to this country, so they i'm.
ported 300 but most of them died. In
lS'l the same institution brought over
another lot and they were successfully
cared for.
From this It Is seen that the birds
have started from number of points
ana were not one or two importations

VIM be a Mild Winter.

Farmers in this section are not
worrying about the size of their
wood piles. They are sure the
winter is going to be mild one
and that preoaution against ex-
treme cold will be unnecessary.
These predictions are based on the
fact that the hornets are building
their nests close to the ground.
Old farmers say this is never
failing sign of a warm winter with
very little snow. When the nests
are built only on stout trees high
from the ground and CLOSE to the
trunks, then the following winter
will be rough one and there will
be much snow.
