Sorry, of course, to read of Mrs.
Wernig's accident and death. Seems
SO many have had trouble at that
crossing and still not much done
about it. We have many drives
here under passes" that seem o.
X. The weather during February
has been very nice and only few
mornings with white frost, but no
harm. The fair is on and no one
would expect such nice weather for
the opening on today, February 26.
We have not gone to Treasure Is
land, but of course, have all year
to do it in. 1t sure is visited by
large crowds, and is big and
affair. We are wonder
ing if a few Sank Centre people
will get out to see it. Just now
the country hills especially are
green and pretty-later dry and
gray. Cattle are feeding and farm
ers are in fields and orchards.
Many trees are in bloom"

elected on the third ballot of the

Sportsmen Seek To
Preserve Bird Life
Pheasants Found Dead
Along ROadsides Indicate
Lack Of Feed

Sportsmen Of this city, viewing
the plight Of the pheasant in this
section, were offering advice to
preserve life Of this imported spec
lie, seeking remedies against his
winter starvation.
This week as sportsmen began
moving about the countryside, re-
ports filtered in Of many pheasants
dead along the roadside, near the
fences. General consensus Is that
the birds starved, were SO weaken
ed that death followed.
In 1886, when SHOWS compared
with those Of this February, pleas
ants were in sorry plight too, those
who remember said. Heavy SHOWS
that covered feeding grounds and
shelter for the birds made life near
ly impossible. Hundreds of them
persisted that winter. This year
is a similar occurrence.
While no definite steps have
been taken by local sportsmen, as
a group, they were cropping for
solutions of the problem this week.
Many believed that planting corn,
an acre or two every two miles,
would help. They offered renting
land from the farmers; allow the
corn to stand through the winter
to provide both feed and shelter
for the winter-starved birds. In
nearly all communities, where
pheasants have been planted, ac-
according to reports from weekly
papers, sportsmen find the same
condition, are planting feeding sta
tions throughout the countryside.
Indication of the fact that the
plan has merit are reports that
fields where corn has been left
standing this winter are literally
alive with pheasants. AS one put
it, "those fields look like game
refugees"
