ERRORS ABOUT BIRDS.
Geese Are Not Stupid, and Doves Are
Great Fighters.

Some of the common sayings concern
ing birds are stupidity wrong. You stu
pid goose!" is an expression constantly
heard: yet the goose, whether wild or
tame is most sagacious Wild geese, for
instance, never feed without throwing
out scouts or sentries. ]. G. Millais de-
scribes how he saw flock of geese feed
ing with sentries out, and how, after a
time, one of the sentries went up to a
bird that was feeding, and gave it a
gentle pick on the back. The latter
thereupon left its grazing and went off
to take up guard, while the sentry took
its turn to feed.
Gentle as a dove" is such a common
proverb that the dove has become the
emblem of peace. Quite a mistake, for
all the dove and pigeon tribe are great
fighters, and in the breeding season the
cock birds indulge in battles royal. The
foolish prejudice against all birds of
prey includes that pretty little hawk, tile
kestrel. Now, if the kestrel were known
ns the mouse falcon, it is possible that
keepers would not invariably shoot it on
sight. The kestrel lives mainly on mice
and wire-wornls. 1t is quite innocent of
killing cartridges. In a game preserving
district in southern Scotland kestrels
were practically exterminated a few
wears ago. What was the result2 Over

which have been unconcernedly running
their sewage into the Erie canal will
be permitted to continue this unsanitary
practice when the deepened and broad
ened canal is ready for business, and
power craft are stirring up the water
as they pass eastward and Westward.
There is a growing feeling of opposition
to the pollution of New York lakes and
streams, and it is believed that the
states authorities will seize the oppor-
tunity to set an example by prohibiting
the pollution of the waters of the en-

with other states will have to adopt
stringent sewage regulations in the inter

Germany, calls attention to an industry
that has grown to enormous proportions
in recent years. Potash is used for re-
viving impoverished soils. There are
immense beds of it in Germany and in
the United States. President Van Hise,
in his conservation address, speaks of
the expectation of potash from the beds
Of Tennessee to France and Germany
and decries the governmental inertia
which permits it. He thinks that every
ton of American potash should be kept
for the improvement of American soil
During the present year. Germany has
taken steps TO prevent the expectation Of
