PLUMAGE OF BIRDS.
One of Natures Methods for Their
Protection.



rGouid e. Rogers, in Maiae Sportsmaa.f
May we not see protective wisdom in
the way nature clothes her birds, giving
them plumage to harmonic with their
natural surroundings, as though to pro-
tect them from the keen sight OF their
enemies? Thus many of the small birds
that fit among the foliage are distin-
guished by the beautiful coiors, while
those that run upon the ground are gem
orally marked by natural tints. Quail,
cartridges and grouse are coiored like the
ground, being OF speckled or brownish
hue, and are seen with difficulty standing
among the berry bushes or cleaning their
repast in the corndeld. Too small to de-
fend themselves, their colors are adapted
to protect them by concealment.
The sparrows and larks that build up
ON the ground are plainly dressed; and
| thrushes, which are equally neutral in
tint, build in low bushes and take their
food chiefly from the ground. Water
birds are generally gray all over, except a
tinge in their plumage alone. Ducks,
however, are many OF them variegated
with green and other colors that har-
monte with the weeds and plants of the
shore upon which they are found.
Bright colored birds in nearly every
case frequent forests and leafy trees.
Among familiar examples OF these are
woodpeckers, the blue jay and the car
dinai grosbcak. Many OF the singing
birds, such as the dnches and buntings,
find most OF their sustenance in the
| grasses; but high-colored ones, like the
purple finch and red poll, usually build
| in trees.
| Conspicuous for their brilliant colors
are the golden oriole, the tanager and the
/ American goldfinch. All OF these species
build their nests in trees and seldom run
on the ground. The goldfnch feeds upon
compound flowers, which are mostly yell
low. His plumage Of gold and olive allow
him to escape the sight OF his enemies
while picking seeds from the disk of a
sunfiower or from q cluster of golden
rod.
The species that frequent our shrubbery
are OF brown or olive brown OF different
shades. They are dressed in colors that
blend with the general tints of the
ground and heritage while they are seek
ing their food or sitting upon their nests
Birds. however, do not differ much in the
hidden parts of their plumage. Beneath
or whitish tint, so that while sitting on I
branch, anyone looking upwards car
scarcely distinguish them from the hues
of the clouds and tho sky and gfayish
under surface OF the leaves.
But why, 1t may be asked, are the
females more plainly dressed than the
opposite sex? Perhaps it il because the
female PERFORMS the duties Of incubation
and il she were brightly colored she
would be more readily deserted by birdi
Of prey while sitting on her nest. The
male tird, on the contrary, while hunting
among the blossoms and foliage OF the
trees for insect food, is not so readily
distinguished from the flowers, for in the
temperate ATTITUDES the breeding season
il the time when all nature ID in bloom.

that all but one town in the county has
paid its tax for the year. This is believed
to be new record. For several years past
every dollar OF the county tax has been
collected within the year by the treasurer,
but never before have the taxes been
in SO early. 1t is record the peo-
pie of Hancock, as well as County
Treasurer Holmes, may well be proud Of.

obligations. Several Hancock county
towns, by the careful management Of
their affairs, are forehanded, and some OF
them have money at interest.
