1946 The Goose Bath (Zuihitsu Ganburo), 12mo, Tokyo, pp 1-193, 10 Oct 1946, 
A collection of the author's miscellaneous articles previously published in 
popular magazines, this popular work gives records of banded birds recovered 
from Siberia, China, and the Philippines, The title of the book, "goose bath", 
comes from a charming folktale, Along the shores of Toyama and Niigata pre- 
fectures on the Japan Sea one finds broken twigs and pieces of wood washed 
ashore from Amurland, The old inhabitants believe these are carried by the 
migreting , geese which breed in Siberia and winter in Japan, When the birds 
feel tired over the ocean they rest upon the wood until they regein their 
strength, Then they pick up the wood and continue the journey, When the Japa- 
nese coast is reached the wood is no longer needed so it is left along the shore 
to await the return journey, So many geese are killed by hunters in Japan during 
the winter that the wood has no owner, The inhabitants are sorry for the geese 
but collect the wood to heat their baths,

Eggs of Lanius bucephala, Cuculus canorus, Streptopelia orientalis, Acracephalus 
arundinaceus, Locustella fasciolata, and Perzana fusca were taken from their 
nests and placed in an incubator. It was ascertained that the most favorable 
temperature is 375°C with a one degree margin of safety either wey; 40°C is 
fatal to the embryo, Eggs subjected to 30°C for a few days before the start of
