Hayes chief of the fire department, in re- gard to the starling nuisance on the corner of Summer and Merriman streets and arrangements have been made for the firemen to spray the trees with water at dusk for the next two or three nights. While this method, Of getting the birds to torsake their habitat is an experi- ment, 1t is believed that it will be successful.
