BIRDS’ HABITS "TO BE STUDIED BY UNCLE SAM Government Bureau Asks Aid of All Who Have Time and Knowledge. USE TRAPS AND BANDS WASHINGTON, July 3.—To follow thv travel* and adventures of individual bird* ■which winder over a large part of a continent, and sometimes of two continents, would seem an Impossible undertaking; but the United States biological survey is now preparing to do this very thlDg. Dr. H. C. Oberholser, who told us abont it, and other ornithologists at the bureau, are confident of obtaining result* of the greatest Importance and Interest. The method by which this study la to be carried on is that of banding the . lrda—that is, catching them In traps, making a record of species, age, sex and place of capture, then placing a band with a number and address on It abont the leg of each bird and releasing It again. When this bird Is recaptured, or In the case of a game bird, perhaps killed, something ts learned of Its travels and habits and the length of Its life. When one bird Is caught repeatedly, or when a number of birds of a certain species have been canght, a great deal may be learned abont the habits of that kind of bird, and the Information so gained, especially about the travels of the birds, will be of the greatest practical value la the making of regulations and International treaties under the migratory bird law which has given such wonderful results In the Increase of migratory birds. It is known, for example, that many birds travel from North America to South America and to the West Indies, and it la expected, when morp information about these migrant* has been gained by trapping, to make treaties with these nations similar to that which we now have with Canada for the protection of these birds. STUDY OF HABITS MOST IMPORTANT. But the Immediate and practical value of the studies Is the smallest part of their interest to the scientists. They say that as the work progresses and the number of birds under observation increases, numerous facts will be discovered about their habits which can not now be forecast. The science of ornithology heretofore has been engaged largely In the preliminary work of Identifying and classifying the birds. Little systematic study has been given to their habits. The work of classification was of course necessary, bnt only as a preliminary to the study of bird habits. It Is this latter study which really Increases the value of birds to man, by teaching him how to protect those that are of value and get rid of those that are not. The Importance to man of two great group* of birds—those that destroy Insects and those that furnish food and •port—can scarcely be overestimated, and It Is these that will b<; sv-dled flrjt. This bird banding Is nut an experiment, aa has been carried on In Europe for about twenty years and in tbe United States for at least half that long by the American Bird Banding association, the work of which latter organisation Is now being taken over by the United States government. The biological survey Is now asking for volunteers to fce'p carry on the work, and anyone who is Interested should get In touch with that bureau. Tirrvey will furnish the bands and Instructions how to trap, handle and band the birds, but the expense of the work must be borne by the individual. The survey hopes to establish strings of “trapping stations” across and np and down the country, so that It will get reports from all sections. Persons who live In the country or in the suburbs, who are Interested In birds, and who know by sight the varieties of birds In their own neighborhoods are qualified for the work—in other words you must be a prety good amateur ornltfcologi; t to do this work, and you must have the patience to carry it on for a lon period of time in order to get valuable results. If you are willing and able to do this, you have now an opportunity to make a r< al contribution to science. GETS EVIDENCE ON FAITHLESS WRENS.

The methods of bird trapping hare been perfected. and some remarkable results already obtained by members of the American Bird Banding association. Special credit Is due to S. Prentiss Baldwin a wealthy man who has one country place In Ohio and another In Georgia, and who has carried on bird bending operations at both'of these places for a number of years. Limits of space will not permit of a detailed account of Baldwin’s work, but some of the results he has obtained may be recounted to show how little Is actually known about the habits of birds, and bow this method of exact study gets at the truth. Birds, for example, have often been cited as examples of conjugal affection. The male and female work together to build the nest and raise the brood, and It has been said of many species that each bird sticks to the same mate year after year. This beautiful legend may be true of some birds, but Mr. Baldwin demonstrated that It Is not altogether true of wrens. He banded a pair of nesting wrens on hl6 Georgia place and later in the season captured both of them again. Each of the wrens had at that time taken anew mate and was engaged In raising anew family. One of the questions that has long puzzled ornithologists la whether birds travel each year the same routes In their migrations, and spend the winters and summers In the same places. Mr. Baldwin found this to be exactly true of certain species. The same white-throated sparrows came year after year to his place In Georgia, spending successive winters not only In the same vicinity, but literally about the same bush. BIROS HAVE CHARACTER. Mr. Baldwin used In his operations the government sparrow trap, which Injures the bird very little or not at all, and he found that they were not bauly frightened by being captured. Many birds were captured again and again, and some of them even Insisted on spending most of their time In the trap, where there was plenty of food. He was surprised to find how much Individual character the birds had. Thus one sparrow which he captured repeatedly he came to know as a fighter, for It would always peck and bite at lilm with great courage and ferocity when he took It In his hand But another bird of the same specie* showed an equally consistent character as a squealer, never offering to fight but always lifting up Its voice In loud lamen tstlens. Baldwin also established to his satisfaction the fact that migrating birds do not travel a certain distance each day fevhen on the move, but linger wherever Be food Is good. Hlf going south they nearly always on when a storm approaches, rethem of winter, although it has been believed that storms jHd Interrupt their travels. was unable to determine the birds recognize the signs approaching storm and travej Jgi of It, or whether they travel in It. jNpSh wild ducks, geese and shore-

birds are among the most Important varieties to be studied by tbls method; they are of the greatest value for food and sport, and their protection under 1 modern conditions depends upon an accurate knowledge of their migration habits. A member of the bird banding association at Windsor, Ont., bas been trapping and banding wild fowl for many yearn, and has perfected the methods so that the scientists say they will have no difficulty In banding thousands of these birds, and in solving many of the mysteries of their far travels. This Is probably the first and certainly the greatest co-operative national effort In the study of bird habits ever undertaken, and It ahoald have the support of all who have the knowledge and the time to help. Jazz Music Plays Havoc With Worth WILMINGTON, Del., July B.—Efficiency among workers in the plant of the Lorlllard Company here has Increased 20 per cent since the inauguration of a continuous musical program during working hours. A gratifying feature of tbe Innovation is that while classical or'semi-clei-Mral music has been found beneflcltl "Jazz” has proved detrimental In efficiency. A player piano has been Installed in the wrapping department of the plant, rolls have been purchased and a boj hired to "mako melody” from the time tbe girls begin work until they stop. Playing and singing iu ptractlcally continuous. Each week new rolls are bought and each week a singer from the service organization teaches the girls anew song. “It works wonderfully well," said an official of the company. “I have noticed, however, that ragtime upsets the girls, I disturbs their work and hurts production. “I have bought only rolls of a semiciassical nature, and there Is a mild ban on all ‘jazz’ music.” Meetings Ladies of St Patrick’s parish will hold a card party tomorrow afternoon In St. Catherine’s hall on Shelby and Tabor streets.
