The BurroWlnu Owl,

On the great plains of the far west
lives the burrowing owl His long
naked legs and his head devoid Of ear
tufts, together with his custom of be-
ing abroad by day, while other owls
sleep, make him an oddly of his
tribe, and, indeed, he does not asso-
ciate at all with other owls. Then.
too, his home instead of being in
trees or other high places as theirs is,
is in the ground. He is a thrifty fell
low and rather than expend labor In
digging out a hole for himself, he
looks about until he finds an aban-
doned burrow of some fox or badger
or of some ground squirrel, and there
he establishes himslf with his wife
and, building a nest of the toughest
kind, they proceed to raise a family.
