L HOW TO
TRAP MAGPIES

The maybe, a predatory bird,
is becoming more numerous
each year in Big Horn county
according to G.. w. Gustafson,
county %extenson agent, but it
is possible to reduce the num-
Der by means of a maybe trap,
plans for which are available in
the county extenson office.
In checking on the results OF
a trap built by Charles Kirby
and put into use on the R. ].
Miller ranch on Lodge Grass
creek it was found that the trap
was very effective. The general
plan of this trap is a rack
around which is fastened small
meshed poultry wire with open
ings at the top through which
the magpie finds entrance.
These holes are constructed in
such a way that they cannot
escape after once they have en-
tered. Charles Kirby reported
that nearly 1000 magpies had
been trapped since the trap was
constructed and put in place a
little over a year ago.

many great causes, I do think
we should not neglect the worthy
organizations that strive to keep
humans free of disease and sick

Christmas Seals. The purchase
of each Seal brings us one step

Plight ofMew
Siamese Twins'

NEW YORK, Feb. 27-(R-
Science sought an answer today
to the question whether two
newborn girl babies must spend
their lives joined together face
to face or whether the knife
could rectify natures phenome-
non.
Although an operation to sep
arate the Siamese twins is con-
templated, DR.. Peter T'mpone,
who delivered them yesterday
to Mrs. Jessie Picciotto, Is, said
that at least 10 days would be
needed for X-rays and other ex-
aminations to determine how
closely their organs and circula-
tory systems were connected.
Should the connection, which
is from a point just below the
chest to about an inch below the
naval-a distance of about three
inches-be found superficial and
the bloodstreams separate, ply
sicians said the chance for a sue
cessful separation would be
good.
At first the information she
had borne Siamese twins was
withheld from the young moth
err, whose only other child, also
a girl, died soon after birth last
year, but at her insistence on
learning their welfare she was
told of it.
