There's Chicken Hawk, or Hen Hawk it you like it better!" exclaimed Nelglrb-n Jones. He had stopped at Farmer Brown's lor a friendly call. "Don't tell me that he is one o! your helpers, as Tommy here says ‘those Marsh Hawks down on your meadows are." A big llaiwk was circling high overhead. v "He sure fr." replied Farmer Brown's boy, his freckled lace breaking into a smile. That is old Redtall and don't call him a Chicken Hawk or a. Hen Hawk. He Uid Mrs. Redtail have a nest down in our woods. They have had tor several years, and they never have taken a. chicken 0t ours though they have taken Rats right o-it of the chickenyard. The first time we raw Redtail do that we thought he was after a. chicken and we would. have to do something about lg, But when he flew up we saw ho had a. Rat. Of course he scared the Hens, but that was all. I guess he Wflllld rather have Rats and Mice than poultry any time, and so would Mrs. Rodltail. it they couldn‘t find other iood they might get the chicken habit. Then we would have to do something about it and that would be just too bad for every- body. Right now they are cinching (ly Thornton W. Burgess) c. ”*4/////~" ’ . I ' Mn! Mr. and Mrs. Mouser, the, short- eared Owls year. For one thing we always see that they are locked up at night. A hungry Fox with othC food scarce will raid potlltfl. There is no doubt about that. And I guess that now and then one, like the Hawks, gets the habit. Such a one is a bad one. and m-ust be gotten rid of." "They're all bad. Tho only good . /. s. u Fox is a dead Fox." declared Neighbor Jones. "Who says so?" demanded Farmer Browns boy. “Every gunner who goes atield r will tell you that Foxes are killing ott all the Quail and Grouse and Pheasants and other small game.’ declared Neighbor Jones, "Birds and other gmrne are decreasing in numbers every year." "And gunners are increasing in the Mice that eat the grass that makes the hay that teeds the Cows that. give the milk that has the cream that turns 1o butter that supplies the fats that all ot us nee, It that isn't being helpers. what is?" Tommy's smile broadened Farmer Brown and Neighbor Jones both laughed and the latter agreed that perhaps it was wrong to Judge all Hawks by what a few do. "I guess I'll have to admit ‘zhat as ions a5 those birds ttick to Mice they really are helping." said ‘he. "nd they are not the only ones. We've gob a lot oi other helpers." said Fair-nor Brown's boy. Mr. and Mrs. Mouser. the Short-cared Olvls\ have a nest on the edge 0t the Green Meadows this spring. It lakes a lot o! Mice to teed [our growing little Owls as well as them- selves, and Mice are what they are living on. Over in the Old Pasture is another bunch oi’ help- ers." "You mean those Foxes." guessed Neigihbor Jones. “I heard that a couple have a den over there. They must have young now. You argcrazy not to get rid ot them. I would it they were on my place." "It must be that you like Mice better, and would rather buy hay; for your Cows than raise it. Reddy and Mrs. Reddy and the yroung Foxes living over in the Old Pas- ture are going to save a lot of hay [or Us by the time summer. ls over." declared Farmer Browns- boy. “And cost you a lot o! chickens.” said his neighbor. "I doubt it." spoke up Farmerl Brown. “rhey are too smart to run the risk ot getting in trouble‘ by taking Chickens when fifitll0lllli danger they can get all they want ot something they like just as well or even better, and get i-t more eallly.

Foxes. That would be a complete upsetting of one oi’ Mother Nature's basic laws." ‘ “What law, son?" asked Farmer Brown, a twinkle in his eyes. “The law that ‘the increase or decrease o! any tor-m of lite must be, and is, in direct proportion to the increase or decrease of its nai- ural food. So the decreasing num- ber of birds can't be because the in- creasing number of Foxes is living on them. Foxes would be fewer too. Do you see?" replied Farmer Brown's Boy.
