Garden CluB On Birds of Rogue Valley Maj. Gen. Joseph Hicks presented a program, "Birds of the Rogue Valley" to the Medford Garde club, Thurs day, May 3. General Hicks said that he does not consider himself an "expert" but quali fies more as an interested amateur. He illustrated his talk with slides of numerous birds, taken by him, here in the val ley, and in eastern Oregon. Most of the slides were taken in his own garden, and pic tured the different types of feeders he uses to attract the birds. He said feeders should be up off the ground, and he suspends his from a line stretched between two trees. This keeps the undesirable birds away from the food. One feeder was a quart jar suspended on its side with a small hole cut in the lid. The very small birds like the titmouse and chickadee can enter through this hole and feed inside the jar. In this he puts sunflower seeds and chicken scratch. Another in teresting feeder was wire net ting containing a huge piece of suet; in one of the pictures he caught a whole flock of bush tit feeding from it. He had one picture of a screech owl taken in one of the big pines on the courthouse grounds. Blue Birds Lost General Hicks said that one of the saddest tragedies from the cold winter and snow freeze, was the almost com plete destruction of the val ley's bluebirds. Scores of these birds have been found dead in their nests, and very few can be found nesting now. A great many birds lost their tails in the icy snow, but they grew back very rapidly. Mrs. E. M. Wallin spoke on "To Grow What Is Good" for the lesson on horticulture. She displayed specimen plant of several new intro ductions. Outstanding were the petunias, Blue Moon, Ca lypso and Toreador, the alys- sum, Rosie O Day, Brownie Scout marigold, a white coral bell, and a pink lily-of-the-valley. Mrs. C. F.
