SEA euLLs FEAST ON PUTTY

SEA GULLS FEAST ON PUTTY
 The sea gulls of this section have such broad taste that it is neces- sary to fasten the windows of many of our ferry boats and buildings with strips of metal instead of putty, the last-named commodity proving an irresistible delicacy to these sea fowl
 This announcement came in the mail of c. M. Andrews, district freight agent of the Southern Pacific rail- way in Seattle, from his San Fran cisco headquarters recently. The news was circulated along the water front by shippers and in a few hours the sea gull hankering for putty dessert after a feast of ships table scraps was magnified into a potent menace. In near-b beer bars and other such places of congregation for sail- ors the putty gull assumed nature faking proportions. = Seattle Post Intelligencer.
