Of which were Intellectual. One farmer
tried five different methods. The first
was a. scarecrow, but this had little
or no effect. In the second place corn
soaked in strychnine solution was scat
tered on field Of planted corn. but no
dead ones were found. No corn was
pulled and there was no appreciable
decrease in the number Of chickens
taken. Third, a steel trap was get
on pole near the chicken yard. WITH
out success. Fourth, white twine was
run on the stakes around and across
the chicken yard; this kept the Crows
from the yard, but the young chicks
would. get out and would then fall, a
prey TO the crows. Finally crow
was shot and hung on a pole near the
chicken yard, after which, there VA
no further trouble.
