A more vivid display took place on the alstend 23rd. ‘These disturbances were in ‘ah ‘likelihood connected with the malfsaowstorm which prevailed on the other side the Atlantic on the 20th. ‘- The voice of the crow ‘was heard in »the land, in this northern district, on the 3rd. On the 0th I ssw a iunco, 1nd at night caught an adult caddie- fly flying among some low spruce. The immature caddie-flies are those queer creatures which appear like! short pieces ‘of twig, rolling ‘and tumbling about in the bottom of shallow pools and rlvulets. The grub clothes itself‘ with pieces or bark, dead leaves, and other debris, cem- ented lnto a kind of tube, from which its head andiiore-legs project. M the 28th. the advent of the yan- guend of birds had become general; reports were brought in oi the ep- pearsnce of geese,-robins,- grackles, and chipping and vosper sparrows. On the 20th l tookfa ramble through the woods. The snow, which in places was stillthree or four feet peep, was spruces,1 which are now shedding them: and green twigs one or two‘ inches long littered the whlts sur- face. Thus the aprucee undergo a sort of naturellpruningat this see- son. 1n the garden on the same day I observed the tulips and grape hya- clnths breaking through the earth eiter their long winter sleep.

Now it certainly was not by sight that the animal found its way beck. and all scent would soon be dissipat- ed on those rough country roads; the only inference is that cats, like birds, possess some homing instinct with which we are not acquainted. ‘this instinct for some lesson is lost in towns, just as it is said that the radio waves _ere making "homing" or carrier pigeons lose their bearings in these days. f ‘em inclined to be- lieve that the scenting power of cats is not... highly developed as that of dogs, but in the senses of hear- ing sight they perhaps surpass the canine" tribes. The origin of the domestic cat has not been settled by the researches ofmsturalists. 1t. is evidently not de- sYesndedrl-nni the native wild cat d: Britain.

Possibly the do- meetic cat wee produced by the nat- ural intercrcselng cf several distinct species iirsomesouthern region, such as India. ' < It will readily be noticed that there are not esmeny varieties of cats es "there are oi dogs. notwithstanding the fact that both animals have been in olsoerelation to man for at least coco‘? years. This ls due to two causes: theoat being a smaller ani- “nlal and lacking that herd instinct which leads the l dog to_ cooperate with man in many ways, has not been improved by breeders; and again, being of nocturnal habits its intercrouing is very promiscuous. The only species (or perhaps var- ieties would be a better word) which occur to me are the tail-less cats oi the Isle of Man, and the short-tail- ed cats of thehdalay States. The Angora cat with long silky heir may almost be placed in this category. There are of gcourse msny-Jolor- phases-of these animals but mere color does not entitle any animal to be celled aspecles. At one time the ‘tortoise-shell, or as lt- was some- times called the Spanish, ,was' much in- vogue; its color was _a pleasing mixture of black, white and yellow; ’ but this color,-in Britain at least, hes been superseded by black, since some humorist setit about that "it was lucky to have a black cat in the house."

Two methods can be adopted in im- Proving these permanent pastures. The first is spoken oi as “renovating” this ts, without breaking the sod. It consists of fertilizing, rcseedlng and Judicious grazing. Sulphate of“ am- monia ls one of the most valuable of fertilizers for grass lands. It not only supplies nitrogen, essential for the grass, but if applied in eoluti with a potato spraying outfit at the rate of 200 pounds dissolved in ttlgellons of water, per acre, it is one of the best weed killers known, and should check or kill almost all of-the broad leaved weeds. ‘fills L “‘ be 1n the enrlhs. lust after the grass has started. Barnyard manure should be used as a top dressing at least on the poorer parts cl‘ the pasture.
