The Ilol.oll-.Vi Raid on Rice.
The bobolink, transferred to the south,
lives daintily cn the rice fields, and this
industry is actually crippled by these
birds, which appear in innumerable hosts
at seed planting and again at liar vest
time. No one would imagine that our
well favored ••Roixrt o' Lincoln” comes
to us from a meet fearful raid on rice,
and departs from us with the same evil
intent. The rice crop by the last census
• was valued at $6,607,000, the product
the rice birds is estimated at $2,000,000
annually. Thousands of men and boys
arc employed to shoot these trespassers,
and the rice fields are shadowed by a
••sulphurous canopy,” as if some grand
battle was in progress. The last report
of the commissioner of agriculture has
some startling facts in regard to the
ravages of these birds. The rice planters
are in despair. Individual looses are
oft- n 50 pi-r cent, of the crop, and from
$5 to $10 an acr, Is not uncommon. The
flight of these birds i- always in the
night. They appear in the spring in the
last half of April, and return punctually
j in South C arolina on Aug. 21 and the
two or three days following.—Scientific
