EATING BIRDS
Van Dine viii Investigate the
Mainland Varieties for
Islands.

D. L. Van Dine of the United States
Experiment Station departed on the
transport Sheridan on a long leave of
absence, to be spent mainly in the
Eastern States
While he is on leave to attend pri-
vate business yet he will attend to
several matters of public interest here.
One of these will be an investigation
of varieties of insect-eating birds which
may be introduced to experiment with.
The introduction of such birds cannot
be made here, however, until an aviary
is built The latter is being planned
by W. Alanson Bryan.
Another matter will he to ascertain
the market for Hawaiian honey. Mr..
Van Dine has taken special interest
in bee culture in the islands and will
see where the product can best be mar
keted. He will try to secure an APP
preparation to carry on silk culture ex-
periments in the islands.
Now that the American Association
for the Advancement of Science has
decided to hold it's next conference in
Honolulu in the summer of 1910, Mr.
Van Dine will be active in working
up interest in the excursion.

We learn from the Jill that as a
result of the prohibition against the
carrying of firearms by Koreans, and
also against the importation of rifles,
fowling pieces, and ammunition from
Japan, with view of preventing the
insurgents obtaining further supplies
of arms and ammunition, the hunting
of wild game in Korea has been en-
tirely stopped In consequence rap
i'd increase in the number of wild
beasts is taking place, and tigers and
wolves are being constantly met with
in the fields in the interior, thus rem
dering travelling in these parts ex-
tremely dangerous. The havoc
wrought by tigers is particularly evi-
dent in Ping-au province, where no
less than 33 persons have been at.
acked by these animals lately At one
place a tiger entered the house of a
farmer and killed baby The au,
thorities in Korea are becoming
alarmed at the rapid increase in the
number of wild animals, and have
made inquiries of the geological de
partment in the College of Science in
the Toxic Imperial university regard
ing the best means for the destruction
of tigers and wolves.
