Will ■ Nature Student Rai Obierved In Bird» and Animal». < Along the hillsides where my home is [»lured crows assemble in vast numbers. Is it only instinct that loads them to set a sentinel on guard when they pull corn or ma raud the birds’ nests? Blackbirds do the same, and they have kept me on a merry chase—-merry for them —just at church time., to get them out of my corn. But in Florida these same birds do not set a guard while hopping all over our gardens. Why? I think because they are catching bugs and know they will not offend us. ('rows roost at a dis tance from their nests. Why? 1 think the reason is that they are afraid of endangering the limbs where the nests are placed. Co-operative moral order sends the kingbird today to join the crow in fighting the deadly hawk, but an other day 1 find him fighting the same crow that is stealing a young robin for his dinner. Why do the English sparrows not invade my acres at Clinton? They are all about me in vast numbers, just across the street, and they jabber in crowds quite within my hearing, yet hardly once or twice a year does a single sparrow show himself inside mv line. If this is instinct, it is very recently acquired instinct, for I bail a seri ous task in teaching them that it was unsafe to intrude. Why do my bees refuse to allow one of my hired men to approach the hives? It cannot be instinct, although I confess I cannot trace out the logic involved. Why do two of my hens follow a cow hour after hour about the pasture? Not in stinct, I am certain, but these two have discovered what the others have not, that the cow’s motions stir up grasshoppers and crickets. After my father’s death his dog led strangers into the house, holding their hands in his teeth, and be watched to see if harm was meant. Was that good logic or was it mere instinct ? During a warm summer shower I saw an angleworm try to draw a stick into its hole, holding it by the middle. After a vain effort of this sort, it deliberately felt its way to the end of the stick and then drew it easily into the ground. Its din ner of soft bark was secured. Was this incipient reason? What in stinct could have taught that logical process. »Science published my notes on the subject at the time with ap proval. Personally, 1 do not believe that there is an entire absence of these logical processes front any part of living nature—not even from the ovoid cell in which life first ap pears. 1 am convinced that the uni verse is charged with reason and that instinct is only a byproduct of universal thought.—E.
