These birds get by in a big way in spite of the fact that practically every hand is turned against them. In spite of all the unfavor able publicity, the crow is not all bad. The amount of harm ful insects it eats cancels out some of his bad faults. This, however, is not a chronicling of the crow's vir tues, or an admission of his misdeeds, but something of the unusual- traits that make this bird unique. The crow really does have some characteristics that tend to throw some of our ideas of animal behavior into reverse. This bird does some strange things that look startlingly like common sense, and an animal intelligence that can hardly be entirely credited to instinct. Crows Increase ""- The crow has made a mon key out of many people who j tried to do him wrong, and in i spite of every means of de struction, has continued to in crease in numbers. In some sections the increase has be come an actual threat. Organ ized "crow shoots" are con ducted in some areas, and at frequent intervals, when hun dreds of the birds often are killed. . Methods of dynamiting have been tried; the explosive tied to the limbs of trees during the day, and exploded at night when the birds have gone to roost. At times hundreds have" been killed. During the winter poisoned grain has been spread over snow-covered fields, but this met with only meager success, as the wise crows avoided the bait. Other birds and animals cleaned up the fatal meals, and their innocent bodies dotted the snowy landscape They Congregate - Mass destruction of crows is possible because of the birds habit of congregating in large numbers in ' certain selected spots. Crows like to gather to gether in the late evening and and hold what looks like a convention. The use of "look-outs by the crow clan is a well estab lished fact, although the birds' enemies have always denied it. But in every colony there are always several birds that watch from a high van tage point and give the alarm when man appears in the vicinity. No doubt there are too many crows, but there must be a very valid reason for their phenomenal increase, aside from their shrewdness and diabolical cleverness in avoiding the hunters' guns. The answer lies somewhere in man's destruction of some natural predator that once kept the number of crows In equal balance with other animal life. Somewhere along the line we havejexterminated, or reduced in numbers, some thing that kept the crow popu lation in check. (Released by The Register and Tribune Syndicate, 1960) Scientists Learn Birds, Bees Facts Ithaca, N. Y. (Science Serv ice) - Caged birds that eat insects rather than seeds can be fed bee larvae, entomolo gists have found. Researchers working wun insect-eating birds in labora tories have had difficulty col lecting enough insects for bird food. Now Drs. Robert Ficken and Robert Stein of Cornell university's ornithology lab oratory here have found that ice) - Caged birds that eat Dr. Norman E. Gary of the entomology department devel oped special methods for rais ing and harvesting the larvae whereby a queen bee is placed in a cage where she lays about 1,500 eggs a day. In one week, the queen and her colony can supply a pound of larvae -a week's food for several small laboratory birds. The larvae are high in protein and vitamins A and D, and low in fat. Treat the family to some new ones for a change.
