WOODPECKERs ANDTELEGRAPH
POLES.

1
Considerable dsmsge is being done to
telephone, telegraph and electric light
poles by members of the woodpecker
family. These birds originally built
their homes in the dead or dying trunks
CT limbs of trees, but for some reason,
best known to themselves, have come
to the conclusion that the peeled pole
offers better conditions for home.
They have become so ravenous OF
late that their depredstions are attrsc-
ting considerable attention among those
! who are compelled to use quantities Of
wooden poles. Their activities spread
over a wide portion Of the United States,
1 notably 10 the south, southwest aud
central west. Cedar poles seem to be
the ones most frequently stacked. The
birds bore into them at any beight from
the ground, and the holes which they
make are often two or three inches 10
diameter and four or FIVE inches deep.
Such an amount OF wood drilled from q
| stick OF timber which is carrying u load
of wires naturally weakens the strength
of the line.
1t would, of course, not be difficult
matter to extsrminste these brdP. How
ever, this is not desirable, as they are
among the most beneficial forms of bird
life nstive to this country, because they
destroy large numbers OF insects which
seriously damage forest aud food crops.
1t seems, therefore, that methods should
be undertaken TO compel the birds 10 re
vert to their former habit OF boring
rather than to exterminate them.
FIR, quent Inquiries have been made by
The forest service 10 this connection, but
the only information to date which the
government has been able TO obtain Is
that on q casual inspection Of treated
and nntrested pole lines In Louisiana
In that region it was found that poles
which had been impregnated with creo-
sote oil we're not attacked by the birds,
whereas untrealed poles under the same
conditions we're very severely In.
jared,
Whether or not creosote will prevent
such attack is not de6Oitely known, but
the service is investigating this problem,
sud should this oil prove preventive,
it will fulfill two.fold purpose; II will
protect the poles from decay and de-
slruction from animal life. In southern
Indiana, some members OF traction
company thought that they could pre-
vent further destruction OF their
poles by filling the holes in the
wood with stonts. The birds, however.
simply drilled around the stones and
made the conditions much worse. This
apparently does not seem to be means
OF preventing their depredsions.
