REGENT INVASION OE
FIERCE HAWKS WAS
IN QUEST OF FOOD
GAME FIELDS OF BORDER STATES
THREATENED BY GOSHAWKS
FROM THE NORTH
NEW YORK, Jan. 20. (Jp)—Early in
November, as was reported, evidence
was noted in northern New York of
an approaching invasion of the gos
hawk, that ferocious falcon of the
North, which on occasion advances
from Canada in formidable numbers
into the northern border of the Unit
ed States and creates great havoc
among partridge, quail, wild ducks
and other species of birds.
These irregular forays of the gos
hawk are believed to occur in sea
sons of the scarcity of the varying
hare or snowshoe rabbit in the natu
ral habitat of the gosnawx in the far
northern forests, the hawks being
driven farther south in search of
! food.
Taxidermists have reported num
bers of the hawks being brot to them
for mounting who had not mounted a
goshawk for years. Sportsmen re
ported seeing them frequently in that
region.
The goshawk is a sanguinary and
vicious killer. While its chief food
is the northern hare in its usual
range, it is a relentless enemy of the
ruffled grouse, and will remain in the
vicinity of a family of grouse until
the last individual is killed and eaten.
It hunts after the fashion of a pan
ther, darting dowm on its unsuspect
ing victim from a perch in some lark
evergreen.
The goshawk is easily recognized,
being the largest of the falcons, of
which the Cooper’s, and the sharp
shinned hawks, the prairie falcon and
the gyrfalcon are examples. It is a
dark colored hawk with very pro
nounced barrel markings. Sports
men should organize energetic cam
paigns of eradication against this de
structive hawk wrherever it appears.
FEDERAL SCIENTISTS
SEEK NEW FIGURES
ON WEIGHT OF EARTH!
CALCULATIONS MADE AT BU
REAU OF STANDARDS DI
RECTOR
WASHINGTON, Jan. 19. (/P)—The
Bureau of Standards is at work on
the problem of determining with
greater accuracy than has ever been
achieved, the weight of the earth. The
approximate weight has long been
known. It is about 6,000,000,000,000,
000,000,000 tons.
Dr. George K. Burgess, director of
the bureau, was one of the first Amer
icans ot interest himself in the prob
lem, something over 25 years ago, at
the Sorbonne, in Paris. He has only
recently taken up the work again,
and in his annual report, just made
public, he summarizes the work now
being done as follows:
“The Newtonian constant of gravita
tion is one of the feundamentally im
portant constants of nature like the
speed of light and Planck’s constant
of action. It occurs in the formula
giving the gravitation attraction of
any two bodies for each other and is
independent of the nature of the at
tracting bodies. On this later point
Einstein based his theory of gravi
tation.
