The last record of a living member of the species was December 12, 1878, at Elmira, New York. Several reasons have been given for the extinction of the species, including its restricted breeding range, the effects of plumage and egg hunters, the bird's dependence on rather specific foods which were eliminated from its range, and general persecution by man. .13 , '74 To get the highest possible interest on your savings — for the length of term that, suits you best — with guaranteed security'— invest in Victoria and Grey built-for-you personal selection plan: Our Guaranteed Investolen Certificates pay interest as lollows: 1 year . 2 years 3 years 4 years!. • k 5 years..
