One' cf the most'lCurious and inter-
.osting habits of the bears is that -,of
hibernation. They are the only .large
American mammals .whioli habitually
choose a warm "den tin dsleep away

of -the death -like conte 3r3 from' -three
to six months, ,depending upon the
Winter. Contrary,.to public opinion,
the bears do notmerge Zoom this

emaeiated beasts, but in 'good condi-
tion. • Bears probably de not eat
much immediately after coming .out in
the spring, for examination. lids shown
that :the stomach' is 'commonly
sbruniten until it would 'do well to
hold a' goodsized rat.
In this winter den the two or three
young are born, and by the time
warm weather conies are able to fol-
low their. mother ` in search of food.
In this connection it IS interesting to
observe that the black bear has. two
.color phases. Sometimes an old 'she,
bear will be followed by one black
and one -brown cub. In Alaska there
is a color phase whioh is bluish gray.
Some naturalists call it the glacier
beery -and 'say it 111 a new species be-
ing ,formed by old .Mother Nature.
Time .alone 'will tell about this, but in
both these color phases 'the black
:bear .ls the parent species.
Bears are usually noctarna] animals,
that is, they sleep by day and' roam
about at night. However, In sections
of the country where they are unmo-
lested they often wander about by day.
Bear cubs are often captured and
matte very interesting pets, but are a
nuisance because' itis impossible to
keep them out of things without a
chain. They .aro so insatiably curi-
ous that they must ,investigate every-
tbiug'tbey can reach. I think, in this
'respect, they are even worse than
monkeys. •
It is a sad fact that in most parts
of the country bears aro rapidly be-
ing killed off. ' Unless they are given
protection they win ultimately be-
come entirely extinct. The cutting
off of the forests for farm land, and
the faot that a bearskin, rug is a tro-
phy to be proud of, is fast spellingthe
end,. If given^protection part of the
Year they respond nobly, as proved
by the experience of Pennsylvania
and some other states, where the.
black bears ream in greater numbers
than ever before. In Yellowstone
National Park, where they aro given
complete protection, they will eat from
the human band. It Is only Milt-

.. A hundred years ago ; there was
printed in "Blackwood'e Magazin" a
poem, entitled "The Boat -Song of the
Canadian Highlanders." Because it is,
perhaps, iiOre\true 'than any other
known, composition to •the atmosphere
of the Highlands and the'sentiment-of.
Highland people,' it 'has secured a re-
markable 'place in the affections . of
Highlanders. The song indeed has,
been more widely quoted tban pos-
sibiy any verse of the kind, particular-
ly the second stanza, wblcb the late"

It is remarkable that after the lapse
of a century no one has been able to
name the author with any degree of
ertainty. It has been ascribed to at
least half -a -dozen writers.
The poem WAS first published in
"Blackwood's Magazine" in Septem.
ber, 1829, included in No. 46' of the
"Noctes Ambro2lanae" series contri-
buted by "Christopher North" (Pro-

the feet that the pupils' at a "Game'
Conservation•Institute"' in Nevi -. hr.
sey killed '"296 hawks ,and 179 owls"
during' a short :period, without appar-
ently'making any effort either to dis-
tinguish between the different species
Of birds destroyed or to study their
stomach contents in an effort to ea -
certain whether they were or were
not, injurious species.
Recently, a game protective official
asked' me why we who are interested
in wild birds did not prepare some
real "dope" as he called it,<upon the
feeding habits of our hawks and owls.
Thera is plenty of authoritative in-
fdrmation for those who wish to learn
the real scants of these birds.
We do not claim that hawks and
rd
owls. des{-roy no song birds, game birds
or poultry, but we are certain that
the damage done by many cf thee
birds is very greatly exaggerated.
The screech owls in my orchard kill-
ed rats, house mice, field mice, and
deernliee in numbers, but the only evi-
dence of bird murder which I could
find were remains of one starling and
one house sparrow. The long-ear-
ed owl 'pellets I examined this winter
showed skulls of sixty-one meadow
mice and the sternum of one bird.
Sparrevvhawks in summer are almost
entirely insectivorous and in winter
largely mouse•eaters, but I learned of
one recently wbich made daily visits
to a poultry yard in New Hampshire
until it was captured (the chickens
must have been pretty small), The
osprey le more than ninety-nine per
cent Sidi eater, but the last issue of
Bird Lore tells of one which ]tilled
tame ducks. The number of birds
killed by most species of hawks and
owls is negligible, though there are
exceptions to all rules and, as in tbe
case of the erring osprey,"lead pills"
may become the indicated remedy in
special eases, On the other hand,
most hawks and owls destroy great
numbers of very injurious rodents and
many of the birds eaten are the weak
or diseased members of a flock, which
are easier to catch, and which might
spread disease to the other members
if not destroyed. This latter point
has been well brought out in invests-
gationa of the status of the red grouse
in Europe, where the same attitude
toward birds of prey prevails, un-
fortunately, as in this country.
