ment the following Is taken from a
report bv Joseph S. Dixon, who
made a study of the food habit of
hawk and owls In the petroglvph
areji of the Lava Bed national
i monument:
j. "On the level ground 30 feet be-
low a bam owl' nest at the petro
j glyph evidence was found of the
! extensive destruction of meadow
mire by these owls. In an area 6 by
35 feet, were found these recentlv
killed but whole rodent 42
meadow mice. 8 white-footed mice.
1 house mouse and 1 kangaroo rat.
These 52 rodents represented mere
ly some discards that accidentally
dropped from the owT nest.
"It ha been our experience that
under auch circumstance where
mice are abundant, an owl makes
no effort to retrieve a mouse once
dropped from the nest, the bird
prefer to leave and fly forth In
search of another victim.
"From an- examination that wafl
made of a large number of recent
pellets under one barn owl's nest, it
was concluded that 62 dead discard
ed mice that were counted below
the barn owl nest represented only
about one-sixth of all the mice
caught by that one pair of barn
owls In a two-week period." A evi
dence supporting this statement
Dixon counted Incisor teeth of 243
meadow mice in fresh pellets col
lected under another barn owl nest.
It Is obvious that hawk and owl

A waste from rib roasts before weighing. We prepare
other cuts in similar fashion each according to its
special requirements. This waste-free cutting is part
of Safeway's Guaranteed Meats plan. Wc regularly
trim our meats this way.
When you compare meat prices, remember that
Safeway's prices always are on the TRIMMED cut,
free of excess bone, waste and fat, ready for cooking.
If ever you're not satisfied that the meat you buy at
Safiiway is trimmed the money-saving way we say, just
show it to the manager of the Safeway store where you
bought it. If your Safeway rib roast (for example) is
NOT trimmed as shown above you get TWO rib
