THE SCREECH OWL


Sioux City Tribune: If birds were
ever affected with sgue chills you
would think that the screech owl had
them every tune he attempted to
sing, for it sounds as though cold
~shuddering chills were chasing one
another up and down bis back, and
If you chance to be In the woods alone
when he begins his doleful sorg, you
will be lucky il they do not chase up
and down your own spinal column.
But don't be alarmed; he is only u
very little fellow. about one and a
half times the length of a new lead
pencil, and he is aDout as trim and
neat a little body as one will find In
the bird world In some days. This
song is made usually from the hollow
of a tree. where he has his home.
There are few birds less ohtIusive
than he. He may make his home
very ear yours for a long time before
you become aware of his presence.
The song is not INDUCED in very
often, for he is as well aware Of the
fact, as you, that it is alarming to
the rats and mice, as well as to men.
and these ale the staple articles of his
diet. But occasionally, when the con
ditions are just right. he cannot re-
strain himself for very joy and SO
must give his vocal chords some exer
cise, nc matter if he has to go hungry
in the meantime. They seem to have
some ventriloquial power, for two or
three will make you think that the
woods are full of them. occasional
ly, when out OH a lark like this,
they will attack a person, ~swooping
down upon him with power enough
to knock off his hat and to make the
cheeks burn if he chances to hit them.
But ordinarily they go as quietly and
steslthily as an Indian and are about
as sure hunters of game. The mum
Der of rats and mice that one of these
owls will devour in a season is really
remarkable. Without doubt they are
among our most beneficial birds.
There are two kinds of plumage com
mon; red and gray. and the inexperi-
enced observer frequently imsgines
that they are different species.
The nest is to be found generally in
the hollow of a tree. though occasional
ly in other places. The nest itself
consists of feathers, chips and rotten
wood in the bottom of the hole. About
i've feet from the ground is the usual
heigth. Four to six eggs, pure white
in color, form a complete set, which
are generally laid about the first of
April.

New York reported that the city had
about So 00.000,0 900 of personality, and
the returns for taxation were about

The Kentucky tax commission re-
ported In January. 1912, that the total
amount Of bank deposits from which
the assessors were to make up their
taxation lists against the depositors

The bank statement to the comptroller
for the same month placed these de-

The mayor OF Philadelphia recently
told the councils there that property In
that city had been u~ndervalued more

In 1904 valued all real property at
