Its favorite food is fish, and when they can be obtained, either by capture or in the shape of offal. it touches little else.

The prairie falcon in- habits the dry Western plains and neighboring mountains, in the cliffs of which it builds its nest. Throughout a large portion of the country inhabited by this species, D0111"? is scarce. as most ranchers do not yet attempt to raise it.‘A1- though this falcon feeds extensive» 1y 11PM waterfowl. quail. prairie chickens, and other game, it at- tacks also various kinds of injuri- ous mammals, notably the smaller ground squirrels, such as the striped, Franklin, Richardson, Har- ris, and the allied species, which abound in many sections of its range. 1n this respect it is of con- siderable service to the agricul- turist, and probably offsets the in- jury done by destroying game; but, at hand are insufficient to show just how on these unfortunately, the data extensively it preys : hlioe the benefit dons animals can not be correctly estimated. Olne or other of the races of the large and handsome great horned owl is found throughout the United states where suitable timber exists for its habitation. It is a voracious bird, and its capacity for good or evil is very great. If the more thickly settied districts where poultry is ex- tensivelur raised could be passed by and the bird considered only as it appears in the great West, it would earn a secure place among the beneficial species. for it is an im- portantaily of the ranchamn in fighting thehordes of ground 11°85. squirrels, gophers, prairie rabbits, and other rodents which infest his fields and rangers. Where mammals are plenty it does not seem to attack poultry or game birds to any extent. but in regions were rabbits and squirrels are scarce it frequ- ently makas inroads on especially where they roost in trees. Undoubtedly rabbits are its favorite food, though in some places the common rat is killed in great numbers; we have of the remains of over one hund- red rats that were found considerable fowls. a record under Prepare Horses For Spring Farm Work During, the winter. the enter- prising tfactor-farmer will have spent sortie time thoroughly over- hauling his tractor. cfeanhig it up and replacing worn parts in pre- - paration for the season's work.

The maintenance ration of rough feedsshould nowbe gradually replaced by a medium grain rat'on and better quality roughage, pre- ferably timothy haly, increasing the quantity until a. full working ration is being fed at the start of the heavy spring work. frhe pre- paratory grain ration may consist of from 10 to 12 pounds o: grain daily in three feeds. At heavy work the ration shou‘d consist of 1 to 1 1-4 pounds of grain and 1 pound of hay for every 100 pounds live weight. A LSOO-pound horse would thus receive 15 to 19 pounds of grain and 15 pounds of hay per 51W.

Mrs. Gordon had been in ill health but her death was sudden and a shock to her husband Mr. Fulton Gordon and little daugh- ter Dorothy Mildred. Mrs. Gor- don, nee Mary F. McNa-b. came as a bride to the Island from Wor- cester, Mass. Her beautiful cher- acter endeared her to all whowere privileged to know her, and awide circle of friends remain in bond of sympathy and grief with hcr loved ones who are left to await the happy re-union. A sincere Christian, handicapped with much ill-health, she was at- tached to her home and church. The example of her life will re- main as a IIIUIIIOIIuI to her faith in the evidences of the things un- seen but which her life was a proof of experience. A baby son, Ronald, predeceased her some years ago. We commend her loved ones to God and would recall to them the Easter message, "He is not dead. l-lc is Risen.” Besides her beloved liudiand and young daughter, there are left to mourn three sisters, Mrs. Robert Rcnnicks of New Rochelle.
