Motherly Barnyard Fowls
Enlisted by State Game
Commission to Replenish
Birds for Field Sport
PORTLAND, July 30. (AP) Every
time tportaman-hunter brings home
china pheasant, one of the moat
delectable of game birds, he ought
to say "thanks" to the motherly,
setting barnyard hen.
If it weren't for her, the multi
colored pheasant might soon be de
populated from Oregon's hunting
paradise.
While paying tribute to the little
red hen, it might also be ft good Idea
to enlist the "drive safely" campaign
ers in behalf of the game birds, for
studies of the game supervisors of
Oregon prove that the automobile
kills more game birds than any other
source, the hunter excepted.
Hen's Role Told
The part of the barnyard hen in
restocking Oregon's hurting preserves
was described today by Frank Wire,
state game supervisor, who has the
double-barreled Job of keeping pre
serves stocked and keeping hunters
from annihilating them.
To offset the 100,000 pheasants
shot annually In Oregon. Wire buys
hundreds of young barnyard, hens
each season to raise some 40,000
pheasant eggs. Protected in three
state hatcheries, which will soon be
supplemented by a fourth, the ma
jority of the young pheasants might
never survive but for the hen be
cause their natural mothers loose ma
ternal Instincts in captivity.
Until game students discovered that
the hen would raise pheasants, the
state had a high mortality In hatch
ing eggs with wild hen peasants.
Wire said It was Impossible to set
two hen pheasants In the same yard
for If one hatched her brood before
the other, the hen pheasant without;
a brood grew quickly jealous and tried
her best to kill the other's chicks.
Pheasants Flighty I
Another temperamental habit of!
the hen pheasant is that she never!
returns to a neat if it has been!
touched by man. The ordinary barn
yard hen, having none of these!
traitor- will raise a brood of pheas
ants as carefully as though they were
her own, said Wire.
- In a natural nest, the hen pheas
ant goes about raising her young on
a grand scale, sitting on 75 eggs. If
unmolested, she will hatch most of
them but anything causing her to
move will result In 30 percent loss.
Raised by Incubators at one farm
and by barnyard hens at two others,
chicks will be tried out on still an
other method soon at a fourth farm
being developed. There the barnyard
hens will be cooped up but the chicks
will be allowed to run free, their
wings strapped to prevent flying until
they are old enough to be released
in the forests.
Next to the automobile, the great
est menace to game birds is predatory
animals, followed in order by farm
machinery and telephone and power
lines.
The farms at which hens are used
are located at Pendleton and Eugene.
The Oorvallls farm Is restricted to
Incubators. Which method Is the most
economical has not yet been deter
mined. The fourth farm will be lo
cated, at Ontario.

BUDGE EMBARRASSED
WtTH PRAISE, KISSES
AS CUP STARTS HOME
LONDON. July 30. (fl) The Davll

couldn't hold It up any longer.
Bryan (Bitty) Grants, lost In the
crowd. Impatiently wished the train
to be on Its way bearing him back
to his native Georgia.
"we've certainly been treated roy
ally," he exclaimed, "but boyl I'd
certainly like to see Peachtree atreet,
Atlsnta, again.'
Budge, whose singles and doubles
play was given credit for taking the
famed tennis trophy away from the
British, was the real center of at
traction. Old ladles pressed through the
crowd to kiss the embarrassed Call
forntan full on the Hps. Solemn gen
tlemen with whiskers shook hands
and declared 'we've never had a more
worthy champion."
Budge modestly dissented from this
but promised everybody he and Msko

SURGEONS OFFER
ADVICE TO HELP
Injuries Often Aggravated
By Awkwardness of Per
sons at Accident Scene
Amateur Aid Baneful
CLEVELAND (UP) The crumpling
crash of an automobile accident In
variably draws an excited crowd of
bystanders, witnesses and scores of
'helpful" suggestions for the care of
the injured.
From these crowds of curbstone
kibitzers there Invariably steps "the
good samaritan" who offers the use
of his car and knowledge of the city
to speed the crash victims to the
nearest hospital. "The good Samari
tan" supervises and aids in the plac
ing of the injured In his car and then
drives with all speed to the nearest
emergency ward with his self-imposed
"charge."
The curbstone "good Samaritan" la
somewhat of a menace and usually
does more harm than good to the
auto crash victims, believes Dr. George
P. O'Malley, for 16 years head police
surgeon of Cleveland.
First Aid Hints
"Reduction of trafflo deaths and
serious Injuries depends most next
to prevention of accidents themselves
upon the clear-headedness of the
persons on the scene," Dr. O'Malley
said. "Once a smaahup has occurred,
the problem of immediate Importance
is to get the victim - to a hospital
emergency room without aggravating
his injuries."
For the bystander to make faimeeli
more useful at the scene of an auto
accident, Dr. O'Malley gave . these
rules:
First Summon an ambulance. .
Second Refuse to Jam an Injured
person Into the first passing auto.
Awkward haste and unskilled hand
ling by the curbstone congregations
are the two surest allies of death and
disability that hover over every acci
dent, according to Dr. Jonn Dicken
son, state chairman of the commit
tee on fractures of the American Col
lege of Surgeons.
"A simple leg fracture, for Instance,
when the limb is not splinted, may be
converted into a compound, with the
Jagged edges of bone sawing through
flesh and nerves like a knife. A splin
tered rib may pierce a lung, . or a
smashed vertebra sever the spinal cord
during the apparently simple act of
lifting a victim Into an auto," Dr.
Dickenson pointed out.
Women Called Calmest -
Men at the scene of an accident,
oddly enough, are much more excit
able as a rule, than women, accord
ing to Dr. O'Malley. A woman's nat
ural nursing Instinct seems to tell
her that the best thing to do for an
Injured person is to keep him quiet
and comfortable as possible. A man,
on the other hand, la Impelled by an
lrreslstalble urge to do something ac
tive and positive,""'"
He continued:
. "The good samaritan" should cover
victims with a blanket or coat,
Warmth helps. Bleeding, if possible.!
should . receive Immediate attention.
It can be checked with a handker-1
chief compress or by finger pressure '
on the artery without moving the vie- i
tlm. Before the numbness or shock
has worn off the high-speed ambu- I
lance-andstaff will be on the scene !
and the "good Samaritan's" Job is
over.
