NEWSY FARM By Agricola

THE CHARLOTTETOWN GUARDIAN

NOTES I

CAMOUFLAGI:

Durinl the Great War the method oi concealment called camouflage was practised in s. thousand dliferent ways, and the inven- tors of them doubtless took credit for originality: yet the scheme is as old as nature itself. The birds, beasts, and fishes instinctively use it, and insects are star actors. _ '

The bittem or (marsh hen) that I disturbed the other day was fully cog- nizant of its use; it stretched its head, neck and body into a straight

past. The mosquito hawk or night hawk rests, not crosswise, but length- wise on s. branch and in this manner appears to be part of it and so es- - capes partlculiirattentlon.

--Our llil1l.ADldllh owl, or ‘Saw- whet" when scared moves its _head up and down incessantly. S/een thus ln s dark hols in the tree where it makbs- its nest, the two glittering orbs in constant motion have a most disconcerting effect..1n the presence of certain foes, the long necked woodpeckers act in s curious man-

ground and move the neck and head rhythmically in a very realistic snake like msnnsr. Prom man their best refuge is in flight.

The. amphibians-stimulate their sur- phibiaris stimulate their sur- roundings. The pigment cells of ‘the skin are adaptable so that a light colored frog put lnlo a locality with darker coloring, will in the course cf half an hour or so. become a much more sombre looking ‘animal. Among the infinite variety oi fishes I may only select s couple. The flat-fishes present on their up- per surface a coloring harmonizing with the sea-bottom, the invisible I undersurfsco remaining white. The I outtlo fish or "ink-iish‘ ‘is the cr- > iglnstor of the "smoke screen." When ’ pursued it ejects an inky fluid which surrounds the fish like a fog in the water‘ and hides it from sight. Our > only representstivejof the cuttle- I fish is the squid which occurs on the I fishing grounds: I do not know

like secretion.

Who has not noticed how insects simulate death? Many beeiles and spiders have a habit of dropping to the ground, still and contracted, till

the disturber has gone. If they tall among ' grass it ls almost ‘ possible to find them.

Many of our syrphus flies range the flowers buzzing the while arid are col- ored to resemble bees and wasps. The large Eristslls, sometimes called > thedrone fiyis frequently a cause of unfounded fear.

f is taken "as usign" of an aggressive

temper. "Ills however periecily harm- less. It may easily be known by the the smoky area on the wingswhich mcrever .are_only two in-number. whereas the wasps have four. The sub- ject of camouflage in insects ls almost exhaustlble, and no doubt many oi my readers have noticed examples.

BABES

There has been another outbreak of rabies in Canada, s girl in Mon- treal having died from the bite of a rabid dog. We are fortunate in es- caping a visitation of the malady in this province, as it not only attacks the dog. but it is asserted, has been observed ‘ in the I tom, raccoon, skunk and‘ other animals. The malady is characterised, at. a certain stage. by the irrepressible desire of thssnimsl to use its weapons oi ’ ‘ ; dogs and other flesh eaters attacking with tbbir teeth, hsrbiv with their horns. and birds wi their beaks, and therein lies the danger to man. Rabies does not begin at once with

change in ths_babits or the dog. it becomes dull. and taciturn, sndseeks shelter, s “ 1__ beneath chairs and into odd. corners but even there it cannot rest. ‘lumping up Ind lying down in a~ sleeping attitude for a few minutes, than repeating the perform-

ance. These symptoms call for the attention oi a veterinary and until his arrival. the animal should be safely penned up. especially as it still ob- eys its master's voice. _ The symptoms graduall ybecome

es. Ii on straw the dog pushes it about or rolls it with its paws; in a room it scratches the floor and tumbles up its bedding. It now acts as though under ‘nbenso mental in- fluence; after standing still and at- tenlive, it will throw itself forward. yelling furiously and snapping at the vacant air, as at an imaginary en- emy. The saliva becomes virulent now, and contrary to popular opin- ion there is no dread of water; the animal tries to lap even when the throat: is so swelled that it cannot swallow. The voice becomes cracked and slridulcus, the "volx du coq" as the French have ib-a kind of crow like ‘a diud with the croup. Another test is to allow it sight 0g another dog-indeed all rabid animals be- come excited. exasperated. and furious at the sight of s. dog. Even the timid sheep while rabid will butt furiously at a. dog which normally it would flee from. Onevof the most remarkable observations ls that a rabid dog will not bite its master.
