THE STOOL PIGEON.
its Part In Capturing the Wild Birds
In Former Times

There are occasional reports of small
fiocks Of wild pigeons li,svlng been
seen IN different parts OF the Unltcd
States and Canada. Possibly these
are the harbingers of their return from
South America. whence they migrated
for some unknown reason fifty years
ago.
1t may not be generally known that
the somewhat Odlous term stool pi-
geOn" as used today arose from the
stool pigeon that used to be employed
In catching wild pigeons In former
times. They used to be SO plenty that
they We're taken In great numbers by
the, use of spring nets. These nets
varied In size, but were from two to
ten yards long and were half as wide.
They were concealed as much as pos
sible, being partly covered with hay or
straw or whatever was most suitable.
At each end was strong spring, to
which ropes were attached, something
like 150 feet long, to where the watch
er was concealed. Close to the net was
4 stool. or stand, where the stool pr.
geon," usually a tame or captured one.
was placed. The pigeon was tied by
the feet to the STOOL and from this
stool rope extended to the person In
concealment. Wheat or some other
grain was scattered about tire net. and
when the flock was passing the rope
attached to the stool was pulled. caus-
ing the pigeon to rise and fiutter Its
wings In trying to escape. This at
tracted the attention of the passing
flock and induced them to light where
the grain had been scattered. Then a
slight pull on the ropes would release
the spring to the net. which would be
thrown over them SO quickly that they
had no time to escape. Sometimes
rhatiy hundreds were captured In this
way at single haul.-Amateur Sports
