|. FIRST STEPS IN BIRD STUDY.

so others here wish to begin with the
impossible.
First Points-Forn1 and Color.
If you were to go into the field
and meet with bird that had no strik-
ing colors, and ! should ask you for a
description, your answer would be,
most likely: why. IL was just a little
gray bird or a brown bird. -
That is good, as far as it goes, a first
step; but in order to know birds, or that
particular bird, you must separate from
this general fact, other facts which
shall more specifically describe the
form.
Note one, two, three. or a dozen items
about the bird; mark any patch of COL
or, its location; the bill-heavy or
slight, long or short; note what the bird
Is doing, where you found il, and just
as many other facts as you are asDle to
notice.
Next, the Song.
Another step. Among the notes,
and calls. and songs. and gossipy chat
ter OF hedgerow, and garden, and field,
not. one may ever have specially at
tracted your attention, and insisted
upon being distinguished from them.
This bird music has been here, and
there, ana YOndeT-WhereVer you have
been-but you have not stopped long
enough to mark differences. 1t may be
that you hear a burst Of song or a babel
of bird voices; then listen for the pur-
pose of separating from the volume of
music, some Of the strains or fragments
that enter into the chorus.
If you have gone thus far, you have
made a beginning. You have begun to
notice, and mark. Never again will the
biTd-choTus be simply a tumble of
sounds, for you can pick out some of
the strands: you can assert the sounds.

sights as well as sounds. At this point,
IN all probability, you viii try TO tell
yourself how large this bird is, and you
haven't thing to measure it by, and
then, too, it is far out of your reach.
You need a unit Of measure; something
with which this bird may be compared.
ana not only this one, but others as
Well For this purpose there is one
which, probably, because Of its pres
enee everywhere, and its familiarity
would suggest itself, viz, the robin. IS
this bird larger or smaller than the
robin? Is it of similar build? or is it
more stocky? and so on. The beginner
Goes not have much trouble with the
birds OF strikingly cOlored plumage.
These give little trouble; but the small,
plainly dressed birds do perplex and
confuse one who is just making a start
in the work.
AS you observe. for example, a COM
mon bird OF the rollicking notes-a bird
that sings both at rest and while fly
lng-you viii discover a further dis
tlnguishing mark: over the head and
throat and shoulders, extending even to
the breast, you note a beautiful Grim
son; and while noting the color of the
head, you viii be quite likely to OBJ
serve that its bill is heavy and strong,
and If it should alight upon the ground,
you would see that it hOps-tumps
along-and does not run, as is the
robins habit.
Bird Localities,
Another step. You will now find
yourself associating certain birds with
particular localities. Very early in
your field work you will observe that
certain birds never appear in a certain
locality, while others, if they are to
be found at all, will be met with ex-
actly there. Then it will occur to you
that just as you would not look for
sailors, and fishing. smacks and the pa
raphernalia of the sea, up at the Sill
yer King mine, so you can hardly ex-
pect to find water birds in the noun
tains and on these wind-swept benches.
Birds are suited to certain environ
ments just as fish are; their life de-
ponds upon having the conditions which
make life possible; they must go where
food-of the sort that they like and can
utilize-is to be found.
The western grebe, for example.
The Salt Lake herald. [volume] (Salt Lake City [Utah]) 1870-1909, 1909-06-13

would be sorely out OF place, and would
soon staFve TO death, in our gardens
and fertile yalleys-its home is upon
the water; there It finds its food, ana
there it passes its life.
On the other hand. members of the
warbler family find their food in the
trees. where they search. with their
sharp eyes. on twigs and leaf for in
sect food so small that the naked eye
can hardly discern it.
Presently you will observe that GER
tain birds, such as marsh hawks. Ger
tain owls, and wrens, and warblers.
and bitterns and others, seem to prefer
the reedy, marshy grounds bordering
ponds and lakes; and that still others
like best the shores, delighting in run
ming along in the shallow water
Other birds remain in the felds-the
meadow laTks, horned larks, sparrows,
doves; while the benches. canyons and
mountains shelter still others that pre-
fer to remain I'm those localities; such
are tOWhees, crows, jays and others.
5.-There is another step-a funda-
mental law which must be observed by
all who make any Roadway in the
study of this subject. That is, the bird
student must learn to be exact-must
practice exactness in his observations.
There is no reason for disbursement
in this statement, the habit may be
acquired; and one Of the requisites 10
accuracy and exactness is field notes.
In a notebook deal with each new bird
as you meet with it; do not trust 10
memory; just there SO many fail to &C
complsh anything. or to gain anything
by their work. Let me give you a
brief outline that may be followed at
the outset.

Gas Legislation.

The Senate District committee shoulo
promptly take up and report to the Sen
ate for passage the House bill reducing
the price of gas to s. cents thousand
cubic feet making that the first as 1t Is
the most important item of the gas legis-
lation program, So far as immediate action
is concerned. That done, the committee
should act upon the House bill repeating
the stock-infiation statute which Is now
before the courts. 1t is unsafe to trust to
the courts to quash this law. Even though
some time must elapse before final
ruling is obtained, the possibility that 1t
will sustain the law remains, and this
alone suffices to justify the demand of the
gas users of the District for repeal,
which will leave Congress a perfectly
free hand henceforth in the framing of
rate legislation and in the regulation OF
the capitalization of public service cor
porations.
Meanwhile third item has been added
TO the program of needed gas laws, the
bill to regulate the quantity of permissi-
BILE carbon monoxide in the product of the
local companies. This is an urgent mat
ter. At least four lives have been los,
IN this city within a few weeks as a
consequence. it is officially reported, OF
an excess of a poisonous by-product OF
combustion. To delay the enactment
may mean the loss of others. The House
may be expected to pass the bill at the
first opportunity, after which prompt
concurrence by the Senate should come
as a matter of course.
No one of these needed laws should be
permitted to hamper and delay the enact
ment of either of the others. If they are
handled tandem in the manner above sug.
gested they can all receive consideration
in turn at this session of Congress.

A New Search for the Innocent,

In the clash and din and distracting
turmoil of the infinitely varied hostilities
now and recently being waged on Capitol
Hill the latest tilt over the Brownsville
affair has not attracted the attention
which it deserves. 1t is noteworthy not
merely for the brillancy and thorough
ness of the process by which Senator
Foraker reduces to thing of shreds and
tatters the alleged confession of Boyd
Conyers, but more especially for the con-
viction which ii must impress upon every
fair mind that mistake has been made
IN the methods employed to separate the
guilty from the innocent in the Browns
Vile affair, and that justice demands
radical change in these methods.
Secretary Taft in April. 1908, wrote to
President Roosevelt: 1T becomes your
duty, therefore. to make every eff
fort possible TO identify the men WHO did
the shooting and to establish the inno-
\ cence of many as are innocent among
those discharged Some men will be-
lieve as long as they live that this duty
of separating the guilty from the limo
cent arose before the discharge, and not
after it, and was violated by the whole
sale discharge itself. But, whatever one s
views may be on this point, there is no
one perhaps in all the world who will not
agree with Secretary Taft that the Presi-
dent, having discharged and indiscrim-
inately punished the innocent and guilty
alike, was in duty bound to proceed i'm
mediately to separate the guilty from the
innocent and to restore the latter to the
service.
When the Boyd Conyers confession"
was announced the public was glad to be-
lieve that the guilty had been discovered
and that fair play for the innocent might
follow. But the affidavits submitted by
Senator Foraker, especially that of Sheriff
Arnold. white man of high standing in
the community, who was present at the
interviews at which Conyers is reported
to have confessed. utterly destroy the
possibility of belief that the alleged con-
fession was made. 1t Is not credible that
even a jury of white citizens from
Brownsville, Tex, could convict ON the
strength of this alleged confession.
The discharged soldiers are now in the
same position which they occupied be.
fore the detectives were employed whc
have so distinguished themselves in this
case. No guilty ones have been discov
cred: by whose elimination the innocent
may be disclosed.
The discharged soldiers who are limo
cent of participation in this murder either
as principals or accessories whether they
are few or many or all of the discharged
are in almost hopeless straits. The Presi
dent, who has discharged them as guilty
declares that they can be restored onl!
through. him; that they must prove thei
innocence to him, and in substance tina
with him the only satisfactory proof o
