Ants That Hold Slaves.

Slavemaking is a trait of ant life
which has attracted much attention.
1t is practised by different species. and
while in some cases the slaves. be
longing to different groups from their
masters, perform the ordinary d-ties
of the rest, acting as servitors, in
other cases there is a complete de-
pendence Of the owners on the slaves.
One ant, noted by Huber in 1910, was
shown to be in danger of actual star
walton unless fed by the slaves. A
British species makes slaves but is
not dependent upon them. 1t, how
ever. carries off the pupae from the
nests of the ants on which it makes
its forays and the strange ants born
in the nest of the conqueror takes
up mental duties.

BIRDS ARE EASILY POISONED.
Nature Seems to Have Neglected to
Safeguard Them,

Birds seem to have no discrimina-
ton whatever in regard to poisons,
probably because they have almost no
sense Of smell and swallow their food
without masticating IT. They are ter.
rifed to paralysis by the appearance
OF poison snake (unless the terror
be due to dread of the appearance Of
the serpent rather than to an in
herited knowledge of its venomous
power), but such intelligent birds as
rocks will pick up and eat poisoned
grain, and crows and ravens readily
eat poisoned egg or meat Chickens
will eat the poisonous seeds of labur-
mum and die from it's effects. Whether
birds such as tits and greenfnches
ever do so does not seem to be known.
But wild birds are frequently found
dying in gardens, though apparently
they have been in good health a few
hours before, and their death may be
probably due to the consumption of
poisonous seeds.
