MOO'i1'vMr THE LENCOLN'S SPARROW

The only record we have of this Sparrow -was made by John Maooun in 1888. (Mr. Macoun published a "Catalogue of Canadian Birds" in 1909). Other writers have expressed doubt about the presence of this bird in Eastern Canada, while both Taverner and Peterson state that its range is from newioundland to Maine. These writers lay stress. however, on its unsociability which leads it to shun mankind, and so creates a doubt of its presence. ”It is a skulker in the marshes, and is afraid of its own shadow". The admirable list of New Brunswick birds, drawn up by Mr. Wm. H. Moore of Scotch Lake, describes the Lincoln's Sparrow, as a toler- ably common summer resident. and adds that it breads there. It is in- cludcd also in the list of Nova Scotian birds drawn up by Mr. Robic W. Tufts Chief Federal Ml- uratory Bird Officer for the Mari- times.

Other difficulties in getting ra- cords, are caused by this Sparrows resemblance to other species, and also to the scarcity of trained ob- servers in the Province. In the li- lustrated ”Bircl Guides". this species is hardly to be distinguisllcd from thc Song Sparrow except for its finer streaks on the breast and the absence of the central spot. Here is a short description from that fine work." The Birds of North Caro- linaz"

Lincoln's Sparrow AOU 533 Plumage: Crown brown. streaked black, and with a light median line. Back olive-gray or brown, sharply streaked black; underparts mainly white, but with a broad bufry band across the breast, which is nar- rc-.vly streaked with black. Length to 6 inches.

Look also for a narrow, rather inconspicuous rye-ring in the Lin- coln's Sparrow.

play. The little yellow flowers. like liuttercups, grow two or three inches above the ground, and each is set in a collar of fine green frilled seg- ments that never seem to mind the cold. Last year they were in bloom April 28, and I covered them with a. box to protect them from the snow that tell that night. For some unknown reason the Winter Aco- nitcs did not bloom till May 9th in 1944. The botanical name is Eran- thls hyenialis, and they belong to the Buttercup Family. They grow in some parts of England, where they are said to be naturalized. I found that they liked the morning sun, but not the mid-day heat; and preferred a good damp black soil.

FOX SPARROWS

A letter from Professor J. Liti- coln Dewar, Supervisor of the Agri- culture Short-Courses, reads: "Dear Agricola: It has occurred to me that you might be interested in our observation of a small flock of birds on our lawn at New Perth on April 18th (i950). From our description of the birds Mr. Ralph MacLc.in has identified them as "Fox Spar- rows". The description as submitted to him is as follows:

" (l) Stout as a large English Sparrow,.hut longer. (2) Long l'Cii- dish-bi-o.vn tail. (3) Brown and white hreast. (4) Bluish gray ovcr back. (5) Very energetic. scratches both feet at once making the leaves fly out behind. (6) A sweet pleasant song.

"We are very much interested to know if these were ”Fox Sparrows". and would appreciate from you regarding them."

Yes, they were Fox Sparrows.

EVENTS IN RUSSIAN HISTORY

Russia in Europe was originally peopled by native tribes, but was invaded by the Tartars from Asia. in L223. That is a long time ago. but the Tartar strain still shows in the Russian's callous indifference to human suffering. Moscow was made the capital in 1252, and another in- vasion of Tartars took place in 1479. Soon after this Siberia began to attract the attention of European Russia (1483).

The actual conquest of Siberia did not begin till a century later, (1573) and Tobolsk was built on the site of an earlier town. Siblr, on the Irtish, in 1587. Traders reach- ed the Sea of Okhotsk in 1639. and the whole range of northern Siberia was now in Russian hands.

In l65i the Russians reached the river Amur and a few years later the Amur was the boundary be- tween Russia and China. by the Treaty of Nertchinsk. Peter the Great, in 1710, first began banish- ing criminals (and others) to Sib-

i eria as a punishment.

The story of the second tier of conquests in Asia will term the sub- ject of another note.

The Premier said the inquiry is not concerned primarily with Windsor. where a recent po- lice commission inquiry into vice failed to bring any ”finaliiy" to the situation. but includes the whole of Ontario. Because of the ”undcrcover nature" of the investigation which will also try lo prevent racketeers and gamb- lers from establishing a beach- head in Ontario after they are forced out of U. S.

Begin Conversion Of U. S. Planes For Canadian: Use

HALIFAX, May 1 - (GP) m The first technical move in the Canadian navy air arm's switch from British to United States equipment has been announced.

After work- ing on the first two in an experi- mental way, the third will be .0!- fered as a prototype for navy use. "After work on The first three Avengers is completed here, Ip- proximatciy 30 more will be re- quired." said Mr. Hibbert. "Thll contract, we are told will go out to tender and our company hopes
