Thursday. July 10
At Camp Adams, near Molalla, I saw a new bird for my
year list, number 193. It was a hermit warbler. Appropriate
ly named, it is a bird of the woods in the foothills and moun
tains. Its markings, a yellow head and black throat are dis
tinctive and make it easy to recognize. I think I have only
seen this bird a couple of times in Jackson county, but it is
probably here regularly.

Saturday. July 12
Today we came home from Camp Adams. It was a cooler,
pleasanter trip than when we went up. When I head for
home I am like a horse heading for the barn. I want to get
there quick, not for a bin of oats, but to see my family and
take up my neglected work. Such a trip is no time to look
for birds. I just packed my binoculars in the trunk and left
them there. I'll try to do my bird watching on the by-roads.
Sunday, July 13
I noticed in the correspondence column of the Mail Trib
une that someone thinks that the program of eradicating
porcupines was so successful a bounty should.be placed on
English sparrows. I am not fond of the house sparrow myself
but I am strongly opposed to putting a bounty on them.
Once, when I was feeding-birds in the winter I thought I had
too many so I started to trap them. I found that I caught the
attractive golden crowned sparrows just as easily as the
house sparrows. That wasn't so bad as long as I knew the
difference and could release them, but one day a Bewick's
wren got caught in the trap when I didn't notice it, and died.
Then I gave up trapping. Many people would not be able to
tell an English sparrow from an immature golden crowned
sparrow or some other of our native sparrows.
Besides I think children and young people should be
taught to love and cherish our wild life and putting a bounty
on scjme of the creatures doesn't further that teaching. If
any birds or animals must be destroyed let it be by adult
people who are definitely hurt by them and know what they
are doing.
Monday, July 14
J. H. came by and we went up the Dead Indian grade and
along that road part of the way toward Lake of the Woods.
We also had a doctor friend along who wanted to see what
bird watching was like. He said he could see the fascination
of it.
We did see some nice birds such as the always gorgeous
tanagers, a purple finch with the sun shining on its bright
red (not purple) head, a straight plumed mountain quail with
a flock of cute little ones, and swifts flying rapidly over at
a speed to justify their name. We went to the spot where
we had seen the calliope hummingbird earlier in the season,
and there might have been a whole family of them now, but
they went streaking through the air at a speed that made
them impossible to identify or else hid on the back sides of
bushes. The only hummingbird we got a good view of seemed
to bevof the commoner rufous variety. Once more we failed
to see the black-backed woodpecker that I saw up in that
area once and have been looking for ever since.

Tuesday, July 15
Rfnr the thunder shower in the evening we had a lot
v.irH srnunH nnr nlace. At this season the birds are be
ginning to travel more in flocks, some of which may be just
hut hirris of different SDecies seem to prefer
to be near each other. Most conspicuous this afternoon was
a family of ash-throated flycatchers. The young ones seemed
to look just like the adults which are easily identified by
their reddish tails. I think this is one of the most attractive
of the flycatchers. Since they do what their name implies
catch flies most people would consider them useful as well
as ornamental. They undoubtedly also get mosquitoes and
other noxious insects.
Arrmrur tho othpr hirrls we saw this afternoon were of
course robins of which there are a good many speckled
breasted young ones now, brown towhees, titmice and a
Bewick's wren.

Being near Hoover lake, as any one could guess, I visited
it. The interesting thing I saw this time was two American

I see these beautiful birds in our valley. T.M.

Because of the hazard exist
ing when railroad cars are
parked too near the street,
thus blocking the view of the

directed the city recorder to
contact Southern Pacific rep

the cars be parked at a safer
distance at the Gold Hill rail
road crossings to give a better

History Shows Relation
Of Ashland Man, Ike
Ashland President Dwight
David Eisenhower and Ash
land resident George Benja
min Icenhower share a com
mon great-great-great grand
father. A description of the
Eisenhower family history,
written by Mrs. Fannie B.
Richardson of Greenwood,
Ind., points out this fact.
A copy v of the history,
which "traces the diverse gene
ology of the Eisenhower fam
ily, with at least 15 different
spellings of which Icenhower
is one, was given to the South
ern Oregon college library by
George B. Icenhower, an Ash
land retail merchant.
Historical Tracings
The volume starts its hos
torical tracings with a Hans
Nicholas .Eisenhower, who
was born in 1691. When Hans
Nicholas migrated to the
United States in 1741, he
brought his three sons, Peter,
Johannes and Martin, with
him. Both President Eisenhower-
and George B. Icen
hower are descendents of
Peter Eisenhower.
President Eisenhower is de
scended from Peter's 17th
child, Samuel, product of
Peter's third marriage. Icen-
hower's great-great grandfa
ther was Peter's fifth son,
Frederick, born of his first
marriage.
The manuscript, which was
presented unbound, will be
bound and inserted into a col
lection of family and local
history which the SOC libra
ry is beginning. Miss Myrtle
Funkhouser, SOC librarian,
said.
The book of the Eisenhower
family covers time from the
date 1691 to 1955, some 264
years in all. Approximately
10 generations of Eisenhowers
are included. Some 2,228 sep
arate families are discussed in
the mimeographed book.
The care of a 10-cow herd
consumes an average of 129

to a Department of Agricul
