If you can secure an owl fasten it to some spot 

 frequented by birds, and a short distance away 

 smear the limbs or twigs with bird lime. When 

 the owl which is the most detested enemy of all 

 birds is found, it will attract a veritable swarm of 

 birds to that vicinity, when they will be caught by 

 the quicklime that surrounds the captured owl. 



An Indian Method in Winter Of killing wild 

 game, wolves, bears, etc. is to take a piece of flex- 

 ible steel or whalebone, anything that has a bend 

 to it, and bend it into as small a circle as possible, 

 securing it with the sinews of the deer, this they in- 

 sert in a ball of meat, flesh, fat and blood and al- 

 low the whole ball, (not a large one) to freeze. A 

 number of these they throw out on the snow or ice, 

 about the haunts of the animals; coming along they 

 find them and being hungry, ravenously devour or 

 swallow them, on account of their being hard and 

 frozen. The heat of the stomach soon melts the 

 frozen parts of flesh and sinews, when the spring 

 coil straightens out piercing the stomach, causing 

 agony, and death which in due time ensues, and by 

 following the trail of the animal they invariably 

 find them, perhaps locating others besides. In the 

 Arctic regions where the writer spent over three 

 years living constantly with various tribes of 

 Esquimos, I have often assisted in the preparation 

 of these killing balls, and witnessed their fearful 

 results.
