plane, after flying a short distance
over Langley flying field here, sud.
denly tilted. shot downward and
crashed to the ground, smashing into
more than 20 automobiles and pin
ming occupants of the machines be
meath it. An explosion occurred as
the plane struck the cars, destroying
most of them.
The big Martin bombing plane was
flying from Dayton, O., TO Washing
ton. The field here is a regular gov.
eminent landing field. and the plane,
in charge of Lieutenants Ivers and
Gunton, stopped here because heavy
storm was encountered.
Resuming its flight to Washington,
the plane had just started its ascent.
II had gone scarcely 300 yards and
was about 80 feet above the GROUND
when il suddenly listed to one side
and dropped. Occupants Of the auto
mobiles parked on the field and other
spectators had no time to escape
Nearly 95 PERSONS, according to the
estimates c. witnesses, were caught
beneath the falling plane, one of the
largest types used by the army. The
cars on which the plane fell caught
the full force of the blow, and savet
many persons from death.
Ivers and Gunton leaped from TIL
plane after a quick but unsuccessful
effort to right it. Both fell on tn
ground, clear of the plane. The In
juries of neither are regarded as sc

AS the plane struck the automobile
there was crash of splintering Woo

Duck Refugees
in Marsh Areas

recently to the adoption of other
measures to encourage waterfowl.
number of extensive marsh areas have
been made permanent refugees under
the guardianship of the Department OF
Agriculture, and many private pre-
serves, some formed by artihclai
means, have been established where
the birds are protected while nesting.
AS u means of cooperating in such
efforts to maintain and Increase the
number of waterfowl, the biological
survey of the United States Depart
ment of Agriculture has undertaken
investigations of the general conditions
under which wild ducks live and
thrive, coupled with counts OF the
birds found in areas varying in char
acter. During three summers, field
studies were made dealing with wlld
ducks In the Bear river marshes In
Utah. a report of which has just been
published by the department in De-
partment Bulletin 936, Wild Ducks ana
Duck Foods of the Bear River Marshes

During the three seasons devoted &c
this work II species of ducks ana the
Canada goose were found breeding III
the region included in the Bear river
marshes. which cover an extensive
area at the northern end OF Grea
Salt Lake. IN an enumeration mace
during May and June, 1916. of the l.
species of breeding ducks 1850 palr
were counted, and it is believed tina
this number represents between 6o ant
100 per cent of the total number o
breeding ducks occurring here tina
season.
Vast Number in Ore Region.
Allowing five young reared to ma
turity as the average for each pail
and considering 1916 as an averag
season, the bulletin states that. at
conservative estimate, between 2o,OO
and 10000 wild ducks, native TO tn
marsh, are to be found there at tn
close of the breeding season.
1t was found that, in addition
1ne large number of birds reared @
the Bear river area. many other ducl
came in after the nesting season to r
main there until fall. That birds fro
the Bear river section range wide
after leaving these marshes has bee
shown by records of ducks that ha'
been handed and released there al
subsequently were shot elsewhere. he
ords thus obtained show that birds
leased near the mouth of Bear riv
in migration cover the region fro
Oklahoma to Texas and west to q
ifornia. The department urges the
adjustment of a greater number
