DEATH AMONGST WATER FOWL. -
The Biological Society of Ontario has
receetly been investigating the causes
which have led to the death of so ma,ny

the members the findings have been
from correspondents who only deal
with special localities, and in order to
arrive at, a more satisfactory conclusion
it is asked that sportsmen and others
who have found these dead water -fowl
send to John.Boyd,53Landsdowne ave-
nue, Toronto, a list of the species af-
fected, the number found,the probable
cause of the their death, the condition
found in, whether picked up on the
shore,on tbe icean tbewatee or inland,
with any other remarks that wonld
tend to place definitely the mortality
which lies taken place so extensively
this winter. The various replies re-
ceived, synich we bope will cover the
entire Province, will be:carefully com-
piled and the result made known to
those interested.
