darker gray with less white in the plum- 
age. Summer adults have the under 
parts reddish, barred with black. 
Two interesting large European spe- 
cies which have occurred accidentally are 
the lapwing and the ruff. The lapvnng 
is a large, handsome, crested plover with 
irridescent greenish upper parts, black 
and white head and tail, large black 
breast patch, etc. It is common in Eng- 
land where the eggs are esteemed a deli- 
cacy and marketed as plovers’ eggs. The 
ruff is between the two yellowlegs in 
size, stouter built and shorter-legged 
than they. It is polygamous, and the 
males, which fight among themselves, are 
protected by an erectile shield of length- 
ened breast feathers. Different indi- 
viduals vary in color and are variously 
black, black and white, or red-brown. 
Females, males in winter, and young lack 
the ruff, are gray-brown above (with 
some black in the summer female), white 
below, throat and breast grayish. 
Sandpipers which migrate through the 
interior of North America and are rare 
on the Atlantic coast, are Baird’s sand- 
piper, which has somewhat the size and 
appearance of a white-rump but is buffier 
and lacks the white rump; and the buff- 
breasted sandpiper, a little larger bird 
with the under parts pale buffy through- 
out lacking definite markings. It has 
the inner half of the inner webs of the 
primary wing-quills and also the lower 
under wing coverts finely marked with 
black. 
Of accidental occurrence is the old- 
world curlew sandpiper, related to the 
dunlin. Summer birds have the under 
parts reddish-brown, the gray fall and 
winter birds may be distinguished from 
similarly plumaged dunlins by the fact 
that their middle upper tail coverts are 
not plain-colored as are those of that 
species. 
DEEP FISHING IN HOT

(CONTINUED FROM PAGE 423) 
lov>ed to die in some shallow water may 
be preserved, ready for use at any time, 
by pickling them in a ten per cent, solu- 
tion of formalin. 
For deep trolling there are to be had on 
the market, lines that are made of many 
exceedingly fine copper or brass wires 
braided. These lines sink of themselves 
without the need of a weight, but the 
trouble is that the line is at such a steep 
angle that the lure rides in the water 
with head up and tail well down. The 
good point scored for the method I have 
detailed (that of the branch lines) is 
that the lures ride in the water at a level.
