South Dakota and several other states have contributed some excellent informs tion on the subject, but one of the most comprehensive reports ever published covering the food habits of any upland game bird has recently ma its appearance from the College of Agriculture, University of Nebraska, under the title of "Research Bulletin No. 60, The Food Habits of the Ring necked Pheasant i n Centml Nebraska.^ Professor M. H. Swenk, of the Department of Entomology, is the au thor, He, in cooperation with Frank B. McConnell, Secretary of the Nebraska Game, Forestation and Parks Commission, and other coworkers made the investigations and collected the data. The bulletiil covers detailed findings in a fiumber of - states and concludes with the following significant statement: "Whether the pheasant is to be classed as a bird that is beneficial or injurious to agriculture appears to be essentially a local matter. It depends not only on the abundance of the birds, but also on the kinds of crops raised and the amount of wild food available in the locality in questionthe capacity of the bird for doing good or harm is great, because it tends to feed heavily on the most easily available, palatable foods. The evidence is conclusive that in Nebraska, as in other grain-growing sections of the United States, the pheasant is dominantly a granivorous bird. However, with little doubt a large portion of th grain'eaten by the Nebraska birds studied was waste grain, gleaned from the ground. "The economic service performed by the pheasant in eating weed seeds is, not very important, not only because the total amount eaten is not very •great (about 6 percent of the year's food), but because the number of weed seeds annually escaping destruction by the birds and all others of their natural enemies is probably more than sufticient to produce as great a weed stand as the conditions of natural competition, and cultivation will permit to grow and mature. "If the pheasant population is permitted to increase unrestrictedly in Nebraska, there will no doubt be increased injury to crops, and consequently augmented complaints by farmers; but if the birds are held down to reasonable numbers they will probably on most farms render a sufficient service by destroying injurious beetles, cutworms, grasshoppers, and other noxious insects as on the whole to balance, approximately the harm they do to crops." at IWewhy An Ho^. •ftaca, N. T.-A DM J offering kop. for curing dope bandits is In the making rt Cornell university. The bare fact that such a compound has been "hit upon" in the chemistry department was disclosed, but without further details. It !b not ready for use upon human beings, being still In the laboratory experimental stage under trial upon animals. Its developers are Dr. Wilder J>. Bancroft and Dr. G. H. Rlchter. The discovery is based upon a discovery by Doctor Itichter that anesthetics, blows which produce unconsciousness. alcohol and stimulating drugs ft 11 cause a thickening and whitening of nerve cells. Unconsciousness depends upon the degree of thickening, and consciousness returns when the cells revert, to their uormal watcrclear appearance. When stimulating drugs are used, after a time the cells do not revert completely to normal. Bancroft and Rlchter think that this increasing trace of coagulation in cells Is a source of irritation in the nerves, an irritation "that shows as a craving for more of the drug. Scientifically stated the thickening Is a coagulation of the colloids In s cell, and the reversion to normal water- like appearance Is called peptizing. Can't Find Fire, Firemen Return to Checker Game San Francisco, Calif.--"Where's the Ore, lady?" - Miss Marie Hartsook, proprietress of a photographic studio, looked up at the battery of firemen--and blushed. "Well," she said. "I don't know, exactly. That Is, I--I'm not sure there is one. But there might be one. So I sent in an alarm.*' "Here, here." interposed a fireman impatiently, "this can't go on. Is there a fire or ain't there?" "Well," replied Miss Hartsook, "it smells like a fire." The firemen sniffed Judiciously. Tes, they agreed it did srflell. like a fire.
