A good time is assured
“In a few days “The flowers that
bloom in the spring tra-la-la, will
greet our eyes and the thought of it
caused my mind to revert to the
spring of 1907” writes A. F. Stowe,
of Kodiak, to The Gateway.
"Three of us, Jim Golightly, Tony
Lunsford and the writer, were camp
ed on Redmond Creek 65 miles south
of Fairbanks. We were prospecting.
“We had seen several articles re
lating, that the Smithsonion Institute
would pay $1,000. for the nest and four
eggs of that cross between the black
idaw and the bluejay, commonly called,
the “camp robber”.
“It is next to impossible to find
one by the medium of search, and
I doubt if anyone ever found one by j
looking and hunting Jor it. It is |
easy when you know how. Having I
been asked about the matter many!
times; for the information of the
public, I will relate the process
evolved by us, after much theorizing
by me and two dismal failures, by
my partners.
“It is done by cropping me wings,
loading one of them down with grub,
always during the first days of
March, and following it to the nest
on -snowshoes.
“We found you must always select
the male bird. Never try the female
for like all feminity she will only
lead you astray and deceive you.
In following her she will even allow
you to overtake, fondle and caress
her; but after a six hour mush be
hind her, you will give it up and feel
and look very much like the picture
on a lobster can. But the male, God
bless his honest masculine heart, will
always lead you swiftly to the covet
ed prize.
“The difficulty lies in telling w'hich
is the male. Unlike all other spec
es of the feathered kingdom where
in the male always surpasses the
female in beauty of form and plum
age, a pair of these murderous, pet
ty larceny, theiving scavengers, look
so much alike that the sex is obscur
ed. All you know is, that this one
is this, and that one is that.
“Within a week we had the third
pair of star boarders move into camp
and decided to get the male birds
at all costs. Finally a bright dea
dawned on me, and by following it,
you can always capture his majesty.
Take a long, stout, thin string and
tie on one end a piece of frozen
bacon about three-fourths of an inch
square, and throw it out to them.
They are such notorous gluttons that
they will swallow" it wrhole and you
can pull them in. You will aso find
