A recent visit by painters to the steeple of the Baptist church, disturbed the Ens- lish starlings that haye taken up their pre- carious residences in little niches here and there around the great bell. It is on a little while that such occupaney has been noticed, and now starling house keeping IS mrogressing-in various stag. including eggs and tledgelings of differen sizes. The tremendous clamor that must be an unavofdable part of their Iullaby, doesn't appear to disturb them in the least It is a strange fact that pigeons hay er taken up nesting in this belfry to any great extent, yet. in the' Congregational church spire only a little way. up the street thelr nesting hecame'a ‘source of trouble to such an - extént that —wire screens were placed over the open. tri-, angles above the bell’ deck.

One nign three boys planned a raid. 'Long toward midnight, & back window in tho vestry which had been previously “fixed” was carefully raised and - the tA¥ce - crawled quietly in. and made their way up ‘the long belfry ladder. . Baskels for the eggs and squabs and bags to impris on such old birds as might be caught, were taken along. -The top hateh ‘waa pushed open and the trio crept to th upper landing. One, John, the oldes struck a match to get the lay. of the raf: ¢rs and span beams. Right there the end began.

The boys Pare- Iy escaped with their lives. and never again were the pigeons in the Congrega- tional spire molested. A. L .Stebhins, secretary and _trems- urer of Ashiand Fish and Game Protec- tive Association has prepared the follow Ing interesting letter -setting forth outline of their proposed spring act ties along a lne of much mpoktance & sportsmen: The Ashland Fish and Game Protectiv Assoclation hes sécured 100 Englist pheasant eggs which are being sct under six medium sized hens. Judging from the success obtained last year in hatching and rearing young pheasants, it is ex- pected that at leasc 76 birds will mature for liberation. 1t takes about 23 or 24 days for pheas- ant eggs to hatch, and until three we: old the chicks are fed on custards, harl bolled eggs press=d through a sieve, ants" eggs and files, four to five times a day. After the first three weeks ~Spratt's phiepsant meal and grains are used, es young tirds when ‘conflied, require a substitute for insects. Crissel in” sman quantities is mixed with their foods. ‘Mhese birds will b _elfherated when elght weeks old, as they .will then:be nearly full grown, and will be able to by ard take care of themselves. Last year the local fish and game assoclation hatched 35 pheasnts from 40 eggs, and Hberated 25 In November after the hunt- ing season closed. The association e: pects to receive this year gquite a few pheasants to be liberated - before the hunting season opens. I: is the intention of the Ashland Fish and Game.
