MIDDLE WEST UNIVERSITIES
ADOPT UNIFORM RECORDS,
Reeoids of Income and Expenditure
to Be Exchanged by Secretaries
in New Plan
After eight years of agitation the
business officers of the middle west
universities have at last adopted a
common system of uniformity in the
records of receipts and disbursements
of each respetive institution, at a
meeting held last Friday and Satur-
day at the University of Minnesota.
This system will do much toward
increasing the efficiency of each of
the universities, according to Secre-
tary Shirley W. Smith who, with As-
sistant Secretary and Purchasing
Agent H. C. Christensen, represented
Michigan. By having records of in-
come and expenditure compiled in a
uniform manner with those of other
universities, it will be much easier for
the business officers of each univer-
sity to compare the records of the
other universities and in this way
make for greater economy and ef-
ficiency in the running expenses of
the institutions.

NOCTURNAL BIRD OF PREY
SCARCE AND HARD
TO FIND

(This is the fourth of a series of
articles prepared by the secretary of
the Ann Arbor Bird club, for the bene-
fit of those interested in the study of
birds and their habits.)
Our last report on birds was con-
cerned with the migration of warblers.
Unfortunately the weather has been
so cold that few warblers have visited
us so far this spring. This means that
when they do come they will appear
in large flocks and will pass through
rapidly, hence it will be necessary to
keep a sharp lookout for them and to
do concentrated field work when they
do arrive.
In the meantime opportunity is af-
forded for the study of the nesting
activities of the early nesters. The
nests of birds are built in order to be
either concealed from their enemies
or to be inaccessible to them.
Great-Horned Owl
To the latter class belongs the earl-
iest of our nesting birds-the great-
horned owl. This huge nocturnal
bird of prey isnnow scarce and few
can hope to find their nests. They
do not build nests for themselves but
toward the latter part of February
they select an old nest that was built
in previous years by hawks, crows, or
squirrels and lay their two or three
large white eggs on the leaves or
debris in the bottom. There are, of
course, young owls in their nests by
this time-owls that are nearly ready
to fly.
The next bird to begin nesting op-
erations in this vicinity is the prairie
horned larks-our nearest relations
of the skylarks of England. These
birds build nests in slight hollows in
the ground out in the pasture land,
often before the snow has entirely
left the ground and about the first
of March.
Begin Home Duties
It is surprising how quickly the
birds begin their home duties after
they arrive in the spring. As soon as
they come they begin to find mates
and construct nests. The killdeer
plovers belong among the earliest
nesters and often have young before
we realize they have begun to breed.
They select a pebbly beach, a stony
hillside, or a corn field, scratch a
slight hollow in the ground, and then
lay four darkly spotted, pointed eggs.
So closely do these eggs resemble
their surroundings that it is almost
impossible to find them. This re-
semblance between the eggs and their
surroundings is known as protective
coloration since it serves to protect
them from discovery by enemies,
The space at our disposal will not
permit an extended account of all of
the early nesting birds but it is pos-
sible in a few sentences to indicate
what birds now have nests and where
they may be looked for. The coopers,
red-shouldered hawks, and the crows
lay their eggs in nests of sticks about
20 to 40 feet from the ground in trees
in woodlots.
Nest in Cavities
The bluebird nests in cavities in
fence posts and trees. The song spar-
row nests on the ground usually un-
der an overhanging bank or tuft of
grass in damp places. The meadow-
lark builds a covered nest of grass
among the long grass in meadows. The
vesper sparrow nests on the ground
in pastures. The phoebe chooses a
beam beneath a bridge or a shelf in
an old shed upon which to place its
nest.
Within the city are now nesting
robins, flickers, screech owls, and
bronzed grackl-es. In the north corri-
dor on the second floor of the Natural
