bird Is tbe corn planter's calendar.
Also It's the farmer's Insect destroyer.
It files only by night and catchei the
moths and beetles that venture out
after the sun goes down. Inasmuch
as many of these beetles and moths
are counted among tho farmers' ene
mies, the bird is a first-class friend, re

It sleeps all day, squatting fiat on

of trees. You can approach qnlte near
to It at midday and It won't wake up.

down on tho ground for another nap.
Since it turns night into day. twi
light is Its dawn, and then It does most

that superstitious persons have long
asscclatod It with misfortune. It does
mean misfortune to tbe moths and

From a vantage point on n rail fence
at the edge of the woods it darts out
like an expert fly catcher. To aid It in
