organic phenomena which may be studied in the pages of the Diary.
Correlations exist between the leafing of trees, the germination of seeds,
and the temperature on the grass; between the blossoming of flowers
and the appearance of insects ; between the ripening of fruit, the appear-
ance of insects, and the temperature in the sun ; between the appearance
of insects and their larvee, the ripening of fruit and seeds, and the nesting
and migration of birds—all of which are of great scientific interest, and of
practical value to persons engaged in rural occupations, as is also a know-
ledge of the first appearance of insect pests, with a view to their early
destruction.

To the botanist, entomologist, and ornithologist, and especially to the
young naturalist, the Diary will serve as a guide to the localities and the
seasons where and when the objects he wishes to study may be found ;
and it will supply lists of objects to be looked for on each day of the
year. It will also enable him to record the results of his observations
in a systematic manner, and where they can be preserved for future
reference.

To all persons, whether living in town or country, the Diary will afford
space for recording the results of their out-door occupations, or for such
personal observations as show the relation of the human body to the other
phenomena recorded. The relation of the growth of children to the sea-
sons of the year, of diseases and epidemics to varying conditions of
climate, and of periodic phenomena common to men and the lower
animals, are of this kind, and are all deserving of careful study. A game
and fishing list is introduced in this part of the Diary as being most:
agreeable to the other entries, but any other set of observations may be
substituted for it.

The Diary, in conformity with books of a similar kind, commences
with the first day of the year, but this is not the beginning of the
biological year. Theoretically it ought to begin the day after the winter
solstice (¢.¢., December 22nd), but in our latitudes the climate lags behind
the sun’s movements. The mean temperature for twenty years at Marl-
borough shows that January is the coldest month, and the fourth week of
that month the coldest week of the year ; and it is not till the middle of
February that the sun’s influence is perceptible, and a slight and sustained
increase of temperature takes place. The middle of February (St. Valen-
tine’s day) may be accepted, therefore, as the beginning of the biological
year, and the diary should be kept round the year from that time, the
daily accumulated temperatures and rainfalls being corrected by deducting
the values representing the day (on February 14th 90°8° and five inches
respectively) from the subsequent totals. As I have explained elsewhere,
the plants which blossom with us in January and beginning of February
belong to the previous autumn, and should be studied in connection with it.

Collective investigation—that is to say, the systematic observation of
the same phenomena by a large number of persons living over a wide

PREFACE. vii

area—is now a recognized and valued form of scientific inquiry, as witness
the numerous committees of the British Association for the Advancement
of Science devoted to collecting observations of this kind. The subjects
embraced by the Diary are especially adapted for collective investigation,
both by. independent observers and the members of the numerous Natural
History Societies and Field Clubs which exist throughout the country.
The subjects for inquiry have, moreover, the further recommendation of
being of local as well as general value, and observers in following them
out will have the satisfaction of reaping results which are of immediate
interest to themselves and their neighbours, as well as contributing to the
general store of facts, and the advancement of natural science. With a
view to extending the scope of the work and of securing the greater
accuracy of its contents, it is proposed to issue the Diary annually, and
to invite contributions of trustworthy observations to this end, all such
contributions to be made to the Editor of “The Naturalist’s Diary,” to
the care of the Publishers.

I must here acknowledge my debt and record my thanks to the Rev.
T. A. Preston, M.A., F.R.Met.Soc., the founder, and for sixteen years
President of the Marlborough College Natural History Society, for the
published reports, and for many manuscript tables and notes relative to es.
the meteorological and botanical parts of the work. I must also express
my thanks to Mr. John T. Carrington, F.L.S., for revising the index of ’
Lepidoptera and bringing it into conformity with the nomenclature a
present in use in this country and on the Continent.

INTRODUCTION.

THE study of Natural History has altered much both in character and
methods in recent years. Botany and the other branches of natural
science no longer consist of the mere collecting, preserving, classifying,
and naming—the indexing, so to speak—of natural objects; but in
observing the development, life-history, and periodical phenomena of
such objects, their modifications under natural and artificial conditions,
and the relations they bear to each other and to the pleasures and wants
of mankind. The analytical methods of studying natural history are
giving place to the synthetical, and, instead of pulling plants in pieces,
and anatomizing animals to ascertain their minute physical differences,
attention is being directed to their relationship to each other, and to the
forces and agencies by which living things are developed, built up, pre-
served, and reproduced.

Of the many attractions of rural life—and, to a certain extent, of urban
and suburban life also—none are more interesting and instructive, nor
more frequently the subject of observation and record, than the periodic
phenomena associated with plants and animals; and to persons engaged
in rural occupations, none are of greater importance, nor the source of
so much anxiety. The germination of seeds, the leafing, blossoming,
ripening of fruit and seeds, and the change and fall of the leaves of
plants and trees; the migration, song, and nesting of birds; the appear-
ance of insects and their larvee; the habits and instincts of animals, &c.,
are all phenomena of this kind; and, being dependent on seasonal and’
meteorological conditions, are largely correlated or dependent on each
other, and, to be properly understood, must be studied together. It is to
promote the study of rural biology on this broad basis that I have com-
piled the Diary. I have adopted the title of “ Naturalist’s Diary ” as one
which is quite familiar to students of natural history, but the book is
much more thana mere diary. It is a serious attempt on a large scale to.
show the correlation or interdependence of a wide range of natural phe-
nomena, on a plan which has not hitherto been attempted. Observations
of the kind which are embodied in the pages of the Diary, and which

x INTRODUCTION.

are known to meteorologists and botanists as Dhenological observations,
have been made for many years past in this country and on the Con-
tinent for the purpose of distinguishing local climatic conditions, and the
Royal Meteorological Society has a standing committee which is engaged
in collecting and discussing observations of this description.

The scientific value of the Diary depends on the care with which the
observations have been made, and on the value which is to be attached
to averages of observations extending over a period of twenty years.
Considerable experience in dealing with averages of observations of a
similar kind made at Marlborough and elsewhere, has given me the
fullest confidence in this method of arriving at the most probable results
when dealing with such complicated phenomena as are here dealt with,
and the plan of placing the phenomena side by side will be the best test
of their trustworthiness, and afford facilities for eliminating, by further
observations, any errors which may exist. The meteorological observa-
tions are, with very few exceptions, the results of twenty years,’ those of
plants of not less than seventeen years’, observation, while those referring
to birds and insects vary in number, and also in the years in which the
observations were made. To add variety, and form centres for further
observations, a few entries are given from Gilbert White’s Diary* and
Mr. C. Whitehead’s Reports.”

To persons engaged in country occupations, whether for profit or
pleasure, a systematic study of the phases of vegetable and animal life is
of the greatest interest and importance, and the Diary has been arranged
with a view to such a form of study. The character of soils as well as
climates is best judged by their vegetable products, and the periods at
which grasses, plants, and trees blossom and attain maturity. Not only
has each district, but each farm, and often each field or garden, a
character of its own; and it is only by observing, recording, and com-
paring with some ascertained standard, the specific products of each
locality, that their peculiarities can be determined and turned to profitable
account. It is well known, for instance, that one field will grow clover,
and another will not ; that one pasture will fatten sheep quickly, while
another will do so slowly; and a good deal of what is called “ practical
farming” consists in remembering facts of this kind and taking advantage
of them; or, as is too often the case, in ignoring or forgetting them, to the
certain disappointment and loss of the farmer. Peculiarities of this kind,
although remotely due to the soil and climate, are really peculiarities of
vegetation, and should be studied and recorded in a systematic manner
to be properly understood and utilized.

INTRODUCTION. xi:

Again, the ravages of insects and their larvee are of the most serious
import to all persons interested in the cultivation of the soil, whether it
be farming, gardening, or forestry; and it is only by observing and
recording the earliest time of the appearance of such insects that pre-
ventive measures can be adopted with any prospect of success, The
Diary contains many records of this kind, and I regret that it does not
contain many more. Miss Ormerod, whose labours in this field of |
inquiry are well known, informs me that no trustworthy results as to the ©
average time of the first appearances of insect pests have yet been |
obtained; and I hope, therefore, that the Diary will afford facilities for
collecting observations relating to this subject in all parts of the country,
from which useful results may be obtained.

Apart from the study of climate and the economic productions of
the soil, a very large number of persons are close observers of nature
from the intellectual pleasure and culture it affords. There are probably
few country-bred persons of either sex who have not at some period of
their lives kept a naturalist’s diary, in one form or another, and many
such diaries are at present in existence which contain interesting and
valuable records, but which are lost to science from the absence of a
trustworthy standard with which to compare and correlate them. One of
the objects of the Diary is to furnish a standard of this kind, and it is
especially suitable for the purpose from the wide range of subjects it
embraces, and also from the fact. that the climate and physical sur-
roundings of Marlborough are those of the average of the inland and
cultivated parts of our Islands. Mr. Preston and his numerous co-
labourers have directed their attention chiefly to the first blossoming of
plants, the first appearance of butterflies and moths, and the migration
and nesting of birds, which has necessarily crowded the data into the
spring and summer months, and left the pages of the autumn and winter
months comparatively empty. But the student of climate, especially
if he consider it from a sanitary point of view, and the cultivation of the
soil, will find ample materials for insertion in the blank pages. Observa-
tions are required on the ripening of fruits, seeds, and roots, and their
time of harvesting; on the survival and the second blossoming of plants
and trees at unusual seasons, and on the change and fall of the leaf as
indicating the ripening of buds and the prospect of future fruit crops.’
Further observations are also required on the casual appearance of
insects, the migration of birds in winter, and the hibernation and other ,
phenomena of animal life, &c.

Many persons will probably not have either the time - the inclination
to devote their attention to all the subjects of inquiry embraced in the
Diary; but the specialist who confines his labours to one or two sections
cannot fail to be interested in the correlative phenomena, and thus gain
a wider view of the significance of his favourite branch of study.

The Diary will be useful in exciting an interest in natural science

xii INTRODUCTION.

among the young, as it is a kind of Nature’s “ Birth-day Book,” in which
the birth-days, so to speak, of flowers, butterflies, and birds, are recorded,
and with which children may compare their own birth-days and those of
their friends. i] For natural history classes in schools it will supply lists
of objects to be sought for on country walks and excursions on each day
of the year, and it will also furnish special and appropriate subjects for
teachers and lecturers to explain at the proper seasons.

To make the study of natural history easy and pleasant to the young,
and to persons who do not wish to study it systematically, but who, never-
theless, may be trustworthy observers, the English names, and in many
instances the provincial names of plants, insects, birds, and animals are
given, as are also the natural habitats of plants, the situations in which
insects are usually found, the plants on which their larve feed, and the’
most common position of the nests of birds... The English names of
most of our wild plants are well established, and they are therefore included
with the generic names in the general index, while the English names
only of fishes, reptiles, birds, and animals, are given. Among entomolo-
gists, and especially among those who make a special study of butterflies
and moths, little attention is given to either the English or the generic
names, and the specific names are chiefly employed ; but in a work like
this it would be impossible to give an index of specific names of about
two thousand insects, and the generic names alone are included in the
general index, references, however, being given to the pages of the
“Entomologist ” synonymic list of British Lepidoptera where the specific
names are to be found, as well as to.the pages of the Diary.

PERIODICITY IN NATURAL PHENOMENA.

Weare accustomed to divide the year into four seasons, spring, summer,
autumn, and winter, but in our temperate regions Nature divides it into
three, and she shows a disposition to contract the three to two as we
proceed towards the arctic regions on the one hand, and to the tropics
on the other. In the temperate and arctic regions these natural seasons
are chiefly the result of variations in the heat and light of the sun’s rays,
while in the tropics moisture plays the principal part ; hence we have in
the former warm and cold seasons, and in the latter wet and dry seasons.

The three seasons of organic objects are: (1) The season of growth, or
its correlative reproduction ; (2) The season of maturation (ze. the ripen-
ing of fruits, seeds, and buds of vegetables, and the consolidation and
fattening of animals); and (3) The season of rest or equilibrium of the

t For much of this information I am indebted to Hayward’s ‘‘ Botanist’s Pocket-
book” (Bell and Sons) ; Miller's ‘‘ Dictionary of English Names of Plants " (Murray) ;

of British Lepidoptera in the British Museum " (1850).

INTRODUCTION. xii

two former conditions (z.e. the defoliation of trees, and, in extreme cases,
hibernation of animals). These natural seasons are most distinctly
marked the lower we go in the organic scale, but they are more or less
distinguishable throughout the vegetable and animal kingdoms. In our
temperate climate the season of growth or reproduction is in the spring
and early summer ; that of maturation is in the late summer and autumn ;
and that of rest in the winter months. The range of the seasons varies
with different species of plants, and they are further modified by various
natural and artificial conditions. Cultivation, with its numerous appliances
for modifying the physical conditions of temperature, moisture, and soil,
tends to a hastening or shortening of the earlier seasons—hence cultivated
plants generally blossom and fruit earlier than wild ones of the same
species ; and some meteorological conditions, such as high temperatures
and droughts—if they do not suspend vegetation altogether—shorten the
period of growth and hasten that of maturation, and sometimes give rise
to the exceptional phenomena of the second leafing and blossoming of
plants and trees in the same year.

The order of the seasons differs with the relative length of the day
and night. Growth in length or bulk of vegetables takes place in ral
dark, while maturation of structures and juices takes place in the light ;
hence the plants of arctic and alpine regions are dwarfed by the short,
cold nights, and hastily matured (as shown by a profusion of a)
by the long days of these regions, and there are few spring flowers because
the seasons pass quickly from winter to summer. In the tropics, on the
other hand, where the days and nights are of nearly equal length and the
temperature is always favourable, growth is almost continuous (hence an
excess of leaves over flowers), and is interrupted only by lack of moisture.

Much of the irregularity in the blossoming of plants and trees in our
climate is no doubt due to the introduction, by what is called acclimatiza-
tion, of numerous plants belonging to other latitudes. The early blos-
soming plants, such as the winter aconite, snowdrop, and spring crocus,
belong originally to warm, temperate climates, where drought is a
more powerful agent in modifying vegetation than it is in our cold
and moist climate—their bulbous roots being a provision against drought
rather than low temperatures—and their blossoming corresponds,
therefore, with the wet seasons of their native regions rather than the
beginning of the warm season in our own. In like manner the cultivated
trees which blossom early with us, and at the risk of being destroyed by
our late frosts, such as the apricot and the peach, are natives of warmer
latitudes which persist in the habit of blossoming as near to the time they
would blossom in their native climates as ours will permit.

The season of maturation is most distinctly displayed by the ripening of
fruits and seeds, but it equally applies to the ripening of the buds, roots, and
tubers of perennial trees and plants which cast their leaves or die down.

The season of rest is best seen in our forest trees which shed

<

xiv INTRODUCTION.

their leaves in the autumn and appear to remain dormant during the
winter. This season of rest cannot, however, be a condition of absolute
stagnation, as it is obviously necessary to the healthy survival, and to the
early start in growth of the tree in the spring, and probably some physio-
logical or chemical action goes on which we cannot recognize. Otherwise
it is difficult to understand the quick response, and often the impatience
of all checks, so to speak, which vegetation shows on the first slight
increase of temperature in the spring, while remaining insensible to much
higher degrees of temperature in the autumn. It is true that a few trees
do occasionally make mistakes of this kind, but it is only after an exces-
sively hot and dry summer, when a period of enforced rest has occurred
in a manner similar to that which takes place in the tropics.

This condition of rest in vegetables (rather than that commonly called
“sleep” in some plants) is probably remotely correlated with sleep in
the higher organisms, although that condition is usually associated with
the existence of a nervous system. The freshness and joyousness of
spring has much in common with the condition of body and mind which
results from refreshing sleep, and it would seem to be due to some
deeper cause than the mere increase in light and heat from the sun’s
rays on his return northwards. The season of rest in the arctic regions
is much longer, and it emerges more quickly into the period of greatest
activity than in ours, while in the tropics it is shorter and is not very
clearly differentiated from the period of mere growth.

The threefold division of the seasons is distinguished among insects by
the three stages of their life-history—the perfect insect, the caterpillar,
and the chrysalis. Some insects in the perfect form are said to hibernate
during the winter, but this is probably only a condition of the survival of
a few individuals under favourable conditions of shelter and warmth, as
the chrysalis state is the correlative of hibernation in animals. Among
birds we find the threefold seasons distinguished by the nesting, matura-
tion, by fattening of both young and parent birds, and rest by the
migration, or the survival on a limited diet during the winter.

A similar order exists among animals, but the phases are less regular
on account of the more varied conditions under which they live. With
animals there is a season of reproduction and growing, and a season of
fattening, while the season of rest is one of equipoise between the other two,
which sometimes proceeds to a state of suspension of all active movements
except respiration in hibernation, the animals subject to this condition
surviving by the consumption of the fat accumulated during the preced-
ing season. Even in man something similar to the periodic phenomena
discoverable in the lower animals exist. They are obscured by the long
period over which growth extends; but if children be studied, who are
more closely related to the lower forms than adults, periods of growth, of
fattening, and of equipose are distinguishable. Some observations made
on prisoners by Dr. W. R. Miller show that an increase of weight takes

INTRODUCTION. xv
place between April and August, and a loss of weight from September to
March, the loss of weight corresponding with a greater excretion of car-
bonic acid, from the destruction of fat in the winter months. While this
work was passing through the press, some observations made by the Rev.
M. Hansen, of Copenhagen, have been published which show that three
distinct seasons of growth in stature, increase in weight, and of equipose,
occur in children ; the season of growth being from April to August, of
increase in weight from August to December, and these two kinds of
activity are followed by a period of rest extending from December to
April. Mr. Hansen also found that a continued increase of temperature
at any time of the year favoured an increase in the weight of the body.

CLIMATE.

For determining the climate of a country, a district, or a health resort,
no method is so interesting and satisfactory, and at the same time so
easily carried out, as recording the condition of vegetation at different
seasons of the year. Meteorological observations made by means of in-
struments require an amount of skill, time, and perseverance which many
persons do not possess, and at best such observations are open to many
sources of error from the liability of the instruments to get out of order,
and from other causes ; and they are, to the majority of persons, singu-
larly wanting in passing interest. The interpretation, moreover, of such
observations is often difficult and unsatisfactory, as differences of climate
are due to subtle combinations of sunshine, rain, wind, and soil, which no
instruments can record nor figures represent, and which are only truly
declared by the varying conditions of vegetation, and remotely by the
insects which feed. on it, and by birds and animals which feed on both
and are themselves influenced by such conditions.

A familiar acquaintance with many of the winter health resorts of
Europe, and a traveller’s acquaintance with many other countries and
climates, has impressed me with the superiority of the biological over the
physical methods of distinguishing climates ; and its advantages are fully
recognized by the public, as is evident from the frequent correspondence
in the press relative to the early or late blossoming of plants, the times of
the appearance of insects, and of migratory birds, in different parts of the
country. On the other hand, writers on climatology do not sufficiently

recognize its importance,’ but trust too implicitly to mere averages of |

t This remark does not apply to Dr. H. Bennet, the author of ‘‘ Winter and Spring
in the Mediterranean.” Writing to me on this subject Dr. Bennet says: ‘‘1 am glad
to find that you agree with me in attributing special value to botanical phenomena in
appreciating meteorological conditions and climate. In my Mediterranean travels I
found it an infallible guide. An hour's observation gave the key.”

xvi INTRODUCTION.

meteorological data, forgetting that similar averages or means may result
from very different ranges of climatic conditions. It is the extremes of
temperature, moisture, &c., which determine the character of the vegeta-
tion of a locality or district, and these are also the conditions which de-
termine the character of a health resort.

Plants and trees, moreover, may be looked on as natural registering
“‘weather-glasses” of different degress of sensibility. Some botanists
(Boussingault, Alph. de Candolle, Ch. Martins, De Gasparin, Harvé
Mangon, Hoffmann) assert that what may be termed the zero, or sta-
tionary condition of vegetation, is at 6° C. (about 42° F.), and that the
various phases of plant-life depend on the accumulated heat to which
they are exposed; and many observations and calculations have been
made with the object of testing the truth of this theory, especially on
plants which are of economic importance.* In the present contribution
to the subject I have dwelt with the meteorological and phenological ob-
servations of twenty years as if they had been made in only one year, and
by the use of averages I have eliminated, as far as possible, any errors of
observation of either an instrumental or a biological kind.? In this way
the temperature equivalent of upwards of three hundred native British
plants has been determined, as has also, in a less definite way, their
moisture equivalent. The reverse of this is alsotrue. The blossoming
of the various plants indicate the existence of their temperature and
moisture equivalents—facts of extreme interest and importance to farmers
and gardeners as well as meteorologists, which would be greatly enhanced
in value if we possessed a similar set of observations on the germination
of seeds and the ripening of fruits and seeds.3

The neighbourhood of Marlborough, where the observations entered in
the Diary were made, very nearly represents the average climatic con-
ditions of the cultivated parts of England, and it is therefore suitable as
a standard with which to compare local variations. The geological,
physical, and meteorological characters of the district are given on the
following page, and the meteorological observations show that the mean

year and then averaged. This will explain any want of consistency in the figures which
may appear.

stationary point of vegetation, which might be carried out by means of the microscope.

temperature for the three winter months is 0%7 lower, and for the three
summer months 2°3 lower, than Greenwich ; while the rainfall is 9°12
inches greater than at Greenwich. As will be seen by the table at page
xix., the first blossoming of plants is a little earlier at Marlborough (on an
average of twenty years) than in the rest of the country, as represented
by the average of ten years’ observations collected by the Phenological
Committee ; but in a large number of plants the dates are so nearly alike
as to suggest that the differences are chiefly due to different methods, or
to slight errors of observation. The chief value of the Marlborough
observations consists in their having been made under the same con-
ditions and in a uniform manner, and by a large number of persons
trained in the same school of observation.

to the subject I have dwelt with the meteorological and phenological ob-
servations of twenty years as if they had been made in only one year, and
by the use of averages I have eliminated, as far as possible, any errors of
observation of either an instrumental or a biological kind.? In this way
the temperature equivalent of upwards of three hundred native British
plants has been determined, as has also, in a less definite way, their
moisture equivalent. The reverse of this is alsotrue. The blossoming
of the various plants indicate the existence of their temperature and
moisture equivalents—facts of extreme interest and importance to farmers
and gardeners as well as meteorologists, which would be greatly enhanced
in value if we possessed a similar set of observations on the germination
of seeds and the ripening of fruits and seeds.3

The neighbourhood of Marlborough, where the observations entered in
the Diary were made, very nearly represents the average climatic con-
ditions of the cultivated parts of England, and it is therefore suitable as
a standard with which to compare local variations, The geological,
physical, and meteorological characters of the district are given on the
following page, and the meteorological observations show that the mean

temperature for the three winter months is 07 lower, and for the three
summer months 2°3 lower, than Greenwich ; while the rainfall is 9°12
inches greater than at Greenwich. As will be seen by the table at page
xix., the first blossoming of plants is a little earlier at Marlborough (on an
average of twenty years) than in the rest of the country, as represented
by the average of ten years’ observations collected by the Phenological
Committee ; but in a large number of plants the dates are so nearly alike
as to suggest that the differences are chiefly due to different methods, or
to slight errors of observation. The chief value of the Marlborough
observations consists in their having been made under the same con-
ditions and in a uniform manner, and by a large number of persons
trained in the same school of observation.

THE SCHEME OF OBSERVATION OF THE PHENOLOGICAL COMMITTEE
OF THE ROYAL METEOROLOGICAL SOCIETY.

The plants, insects, and birds, selected by the Committee for observa-
tion are embodied in the pages of the Diary, and are distinguished from
all other entries by being printed in small capitals, all the other entries
being in italics or ordinary type. The following objects included in the
scheme have not, however, been systematically observed at Marlborough,
and must be inserted in their proper place by each observer :—Mentha
aquatica (Water Mint) ; Fagus sylvatica (Beech). Insects (first appear-
ances, abundance or scarcity): Melolontha vulgaris (Cock Chafer, or
May Bug); RAdzotrogus solstitialis (Fern Chafer, or July Chafer) ;
Timarcha levigata (Bloody-nose Beetle); Lampyris noctiluca (Glow-
worm) ; Apis mellifica (Honey Bee, or Common Hive Bee); Vespa
vulgaris (Wasp) ; Bzbio Marci (St. Mark’s Fly).

The following table showing the average dates of blossoming of plants
at fifty stations in different parts of the British Isles, compiled from the
Reports of the Phenological Committee drawn up by the Rev. T. A.
Preston, M.A., F.R.Met.Socy., and published in the Quarterly Journal
of the Royal Meteorological Society, 1884-5, shows some of the results of
the Committee’s operations for the past ten years. The average of the
twenty years’ observations at Marlborough are given also in order to
show the relation of the climate of Marlborough to the rest of the country
as distinguished by this set of observations.

DR. HoFFMANN’S CHART AND SCHEME FOR PHENOLOGICAL
OBSERVATIONS.

The monograph from which the Chart (frontispiece) is taken is designed,
the author tells us, “to present a general réswmé of the numerical results
of the most important and useful observations hitherto made at all the
stations in Europe (about two thousand in number, nearly two hundred

XX INTRODUCTION.

of which are in the British Isles) for comparison or further use in any
other way by the reader ;” and the “ Scheme” is the one which he thinks,
after forty years’ study of the subject, is the most suitable for general
adoption. The Chart is constructed from the blossoming of the spring
flowers included in the Scheme, an alphabetical list of the time of flower-
ing of which at the various stations is given in Dr. Hoffman’s pamphlet.
The “ Scheme” is arranged according to the calendar, and I have added
to the table, for the purpose of comparison, the corresponding observa-
tions made at Marlborough, and at Swaffham in Norfolk. Dr. Hoff-

‘mann’s Scheme comprises fewer plants, but a greater variety of vegetation-

phases, than that of the Phenological Committee, and perhaps on this
account will be more acceptable to many persons. The plants it em-
braces, moreover, are, with the exception of the Tartarian honeysuckle,
the quince, and the vine (growing out of doors), common and familiar
objects to almost everybody in this country, as well as on the Continent ;
and observations made on them are therefore less liable to error, than
when made on plants which demand some botanical knowledge for their
identification. The difficulty and uncertainty on this head is much felt
by the Phenological Committee, and to avoid mistakes observers are
required to furnish specimens of the plants with their reports. Dr. Hoff-
mann’s list of plants and trees is introduced in the pages of the Diary in
brackets for the use of those persons who may prefer his limited scheme
to the more comprehensive one of the Committee,

The following is Dr. Hoffmann’s summary of the most important
results of his work :—

1, Since the mean temperature (for a week or month) represents only
a fragment of the temperature of the year, while a vegetation-phase must
include also the effect of the temperature of the preceding months from
the commencement of the period of vegetation, no coincidence between
the two can be expected ; and the less so since the mean temperatures
are observed in the shade, while our plants grow in sunshine."

2. The retardation towards the Worth of the blossoming of spring-
flowering plants is at once perceptible and easily understood. Summer-

“ flowering plants are retarded much less, since a compensation is afforded

by the greater length of the day as you go northwards. The value of this
fact for the possibility of the development of fruit is evident.

3. Advancing from the West towards the East, in the same latitude (e.g.
Giessen, about 50°) and the same altitude, the blossoming and opening of

1 The accumulated temperature in the sun can be easily calculated from the data
given in the Diary, but the difficulties of ascertaining the sun temperature under all the
conditions of plant-life are so numerous that little confidence can be placed in this
method, and it has not been accepted, notwithstanding Dr, Hoffmann's persistent
advocacy of it.

INTRODUCTION. xxi

the leaves of spring-flowering plants, especially Prunus spinosa, appear to
be retarded. (Decreasing influence of the riparian climate with its mild
winter.) The sinking of the curve of the blossoming of spring-flowering
plants towards the East is indicated on the chart by the dotted isophanal
dines on the German Ocean.

4. The dlossoming of summer-flowering plants is, on the contrary, later .

in the West, earlier in the East towards Giessen. (Warmer continental
summer).

5. In the central mzountain-region the blossoming of spring-flowers is

retarded (later melting of the snow) ; while with summer-flowering plants ;

it is nearly the same—as, ¢.g., in the Alps as compared with Gzessen :-—
Secale, Solidago virgaurea (strong insolation from the clearness of the air
and favourable exposure) ; while the ripening of fruit is usually retarded
in proportion to the absolute altitude. (Earlier commencement of the
autumn with falling temperature.)

6. The ripening of fruits is earlier at Prague and Cracow than in
Giessen, being delayed as you advance westwards (continental summer).

7. The zzterval between blossoming and ripening of fruit is well known
to be shorter in the far Worth than in Central Europe. This is true for
all those plants for which the increase of warmth from the longer day
affords sufficient compensation. Where this is not the case, the fruits do
not regularly ripen. (In Giessen the bilberry, Vaccinium Myrttllus,
ripens in July ; in Icelandin September. Inthe “ Tundress” of Northern
Siberia, the species of Vaccinzum do not usually ripen their fruits,
although widely dispersed by birds.)

8. The same interval is, in the szountain-region of Central Europe, in
the case of .4sculus, shortest north of the Alps above 500 m., longer in
the higher mountains at 600 m. or more. With Seca/e the length of time
does not increase simply with the height ; a secondary influence, that of
exposure, which changes with the locality, has a powerful effect.

9. The colouring of the leaves appear to commence earlier in the West
(south of England) than at Giessen.

10. The ninth phenological province, so extensive in the far North
<thirty-two to about sixty days after Giessen ; see chart), appears to be
entirely wanting in the South, even in higher Switzerland. By this re-
xardation, the ripening of the fruits of spring-flowers (¢.¢., Prunus Padus
and Rzbes rubrum) is rendered possible in the far North by the influence
wf the very short but very hot summer (long days), while in higher
Switzerland this compensation fails.

xxii INTRODUCTION.

11. The mean succession in time of the different phases (especially the
opening of the flowers—as is shown in our “scheme” given below,
founded on observations in Giessen—appears to be uniform throughout
Europe (with a few exceptions which should be more closely investigated).
A comparison may be made (of observations extending over at least ten
years) between Giessen, Copenhagen, Marlborough, Selborne, Swaffham,
St. Petersburg, Ostend, Vienna, Prague, Wyngan, Winnendan, Zwenkau,
Zloczow, Hermannstadt, &c.

It may hence be thought possible to construct a zormal plant (such as
the widely distributed and early blossoming Corylus, Ribes rubrum,
Betula alba, or Prunus spinosa), and to compare all others with it.

The first points for phenological observations—an approximate and
preliminary description having now been given in the preceding work—
should be as follows :—

1. Continuation of the interrupted observations at the majority of the
stations established, for the purpose of obtaining ¢vyze means instead of
the provisional ones.

2. General charts for individual sfecées ; as the blossoming and ripen-
ing of the fruit of 4'sculus and Secale. (A very comprehensive chart for the
blossoming of the lilac, Syvinga vulgaris, throughout Europe is given by
Thne in the “ Botainsches Centralblatt,” vol. xxi., 1885, No. 3).

3. Special charts for as many vegzons as possible, especially those with
a variety of soil. (See the excellent chart of the neighbourhood of
Frankfort by J. Ziegler in the “ Berichte der Senskeub. naturf Gesell-
schaft in Frankfort, 1882-83.”)

4. Extension of the network of observations ; a large part of Europe is
still unknown from a phenological point of view.

5. Influence of ¢vansplantation on the phases; e.g. from the higher
mountains to lower elevations ; from south to north, and the reverse ;
especially in reference to the wild plants, and their descendants in
cultivation (capacity for adaptation).

SCHEME FOR PHENOLOGICAL OBSERVATIONS.

Mean succession of phases at Giessen to the end of 1883; Marl-
borough and Swaffham to 1884. (1) First blossoms open at various places;
(2) first leaf-surface visible, commencement of unfolding of leaves ; (3)

PHENOLOGICAL OBSERVATION AT WINTER HEALTH RESORTS.

One of the most delightful and interesting occupations of invalids
who are driven from home by the severity or changeableness of our
winter climate, whether it be to the shores of the Mediterranean or
elsewhere, is to observe the condition of the vegetation about their tem-
porary residence. But for this purpose our European flora is not suffi-
cient, and we must add to the list of plants recommended by the Pheno-
logical Committee, or by Dr. Hoffmann, others which have a wider
distribution, either naturally or artificially, from their ornamental or
economic uses—such plants and trees as the American Aloe, the Japanese
Camellia, the African Date-palm, the Asiatic Orangé, and the Australian
Gum-tree. Our interest moreover in such plants, when observed from a
climatic point of view, is not confined to the phases referred to in the
pages of the Diary, as we know that many trees and plants will survive
and often grow vigorously in a climate which is not favourable to their
blossoming, while others will blossom freely but not ripen their fruit ; and
these are phases which should be recorded in addition to those already
indicated. :

The following list of trees and plants constructed from a considerable
personal knowledge of all the shores of the Mediterranean, may be
employed to supplement Dr. Hoffmann’s list (page xxiii.), and it will of
course apply to any similar regions north of the equator, and inversely
to those which lie south of it. The list is arranged in columns to serve
as an index, as the names of the plants, &c., are not included in the
general index.

Almond (4mygdalus communis), Maize.

Aloe, American (Agave Americana). Myrtle (Afyrtus communis).
Bamboo (Bambusa vulgaris). Oleander (Narium oleander),
Banana (A/usa sapientum). Olive (Olea Europea).

INSECT PESTS.

The following is a list of the insects recommended by Miss Ormerod
to be observed for her Reports to the Royal Agricultural Society on insects
injurious to field, garden, fruit and timber trees, and crops ; and of the
insects injurious to hop, corn, grass, pea, bean, and clover crops, described
by Mr. C. Whitehead, F.L.S., in his Reports (Nos. I. and II.) to the Agri-
cultural Department, Privy Council Office. The names are arranged

A careful and systematic inquiry, into the food-plants of the larvze of
different genera of butterflies and moths is desirable, and it will probably '
be found that each genera, although able to survive on many different
kinds of plants, is identified with certain natural orders, ¢.g., Pieris with
Cruciferee, Argynnis with Violaceze, Vanessa with Urticace, &c., or with
orders which stand nearest to them. The key of this line of investigation
will probably be found in the relation which the mature insects bear to
the colour, shape, and other characters of the flowers, &c., of the plants
and trees on which their larvz feed, as they are generally found in the
neighbourhood of such plants. Here, again, is another interesting sub-
ject for investigation—the relation of mature insects to flowers and their
fertilizations—which remains to be worked out in detail on the lines laid
down by Darwin, Lubbock, and other naturalists.

xxvi INTRODUCTION.

FIsH. REPTILES.

A section of the Diary is set apart for recording observations on fishes
and reptiles, and the names of our ordinary British varieties are given in
the general index. A few recorded observations are also introduced into
the pages of the Diary from Gilbert White’s Diary to serve as centres for
further records, but these almost entirely refer to reptiles.

The invention of fresh and sea-water aquaria has made the study of the
habits of fishes and similar organisms easy and popular, while the recent
Fisheries’ Exhibition and the biological stations on our coasts have given
a great impetus to such investigations under natural conditions by natu-
ralists and fishermen. The migrations, spawning, and hibernation of
fishes, are periodic phenomena of the same character as those displayed
by other organisms, and should be studied side by side with them and
with the changes of the seasons and physical phenomena with which they
are associated. The culture and acclimatization of fishes in our rivers,
lakes, and ponds, is a subject of great scientific interest and economic
importance ; and though its practice is still limited in extent, it is one
which is simple and easy of application.

Fish-hatching is carried on zzdoors, between the beginning of Decem-
ber and the end of March, by means of long narrow boxes (3 feet long,
7 inches wide, and 3% inches deep, fitted with a dark cover), the bottoms
of which are covered with half an inch of clean, roughish gravel, and over
which a gentle stream of cold clean water is kept constantly flowing.
The eggs, which can be purchased from regular dealers, after being
cleansed from moss and other packing, are spread out on the gravel (from
two to three thousand in a box of the above dimensions), and the cover
placed over them to protect them from the light. At this stage, Frank
Buckland’s advice is “to do nothing at all,” except remove the dead eggs
every morning by means of a glass tube or pipette. Live eggs are suffi-
ciently transparent for the eyes of the young fish to be just visible, and
the vibratory motion of the tail to be distinguished; but dead eggs
become white and opaque, and can therefore be easily recognized. When
the young fish are hatched the stream of water must be increased, but
otherwise “ let them alone.” The most important thing to attend to at
this stage is to keep the water cold (by the use of ice if necessary), say
down to 42° F., as warmth is very destructive to young fish ; and all dead
fish must be removed from the boxes. Some pieces of slate, under which
the young fish may take shelter from the light, should be placed in the
boxes. Later, when the bag of food with which the young are provided
at their birth is about half absorbed, the fish must be fed with the roe
of soles (boiled and broken up), or, as Buckland recommends, on small
red mud-worms obtained from the bed of the Thames, and sold by Mr.
Newman, of 32, Thanet Street, W.C. In spring the fry must be turned
out in shallow streams, or further protected in “ fish nurseries,” until they
are large enough to be turned direct in to rivers and lakes.

INTRODUCTION. xxvii

For further information on this subject see'the Appendix to Buck-
land’s “ Natural History of British Fishes” (S.P.C.K.), from which the
above details have been taken. The original article is, however, singularly
wanting in scientific precision. There is no statement of the time occu-
pied by the various stages of fish-hatching and rearing; and although
great stress is laid on the necessity for keeping a daily register of the
temperature of the water, the temperature at which it should be kept is
not stated. All these are points on which careful observation is required
if fish-culture is to become a profitable industry.

MIGRATION OF BIRDS.

The migration of birds is chiefly a question of food supply, and it is
therefore correlated to insect and vegetable life, and through them to
meteorological conditions. It is not peculiar to either hemisphere, and
has no necessary relation to the physical disposition of land and water.
It is not confined to any family of birds, nor are all the individuals of one
species migratory or non-migratory. British birds may be divided into
four groups, according to the extent and nature of their migrations.
(1) Birds which spend the summer and breed in this country, such as the
swallow, nightingale, and the cuckoo, and which we are accustomed to
speak of as summer visitors, but which may be said to be native birds
which leave the country at the approach of winter. These birds have
long wings and soft beaks, and feed chiefly on mature insects ; they breed
in the coldest part of their migration, which in our hemisphere is the
most northern point. (2) Birds which have no fixed breeding-place and
winter wherever they may be driven, such as the fieldfare, redwing, wax-
wing, and agreat variety of wildfowl. “These,” says Mr. Seebohm, “ will
always be found hovering on the outskirts of the frost. A heavy fall of
snow will drive them south, only to return the moment the weather
becomes less rigorous.” (3) Birds which are true “birds of passage”
and simply traverse our country, or pass along our shores in the autumn
on their way to southern latitudes; and in the spring on their return to
their northern breeding-places or “homes.” Some of the routes of these
birds have been supposed to be ancient coast-lines along which they
formerly used to travel; others for generation after generation having
since followed the identical track although the land has long since dis-
appeared. (4) Birds which have no migratory instincts, such as the
sparrow, rook, and other thick-billed birds which live chiefly on seeds,
worms, and moluscs; and the redbreast, hedge-sparrow, lark, and
golden-crested wren, with softer beaks, whose food consists principally of
the eggs and larve of insects. Some of these birds, however, are driven
to or from our shores by stress of winter weather, and large flocks of
chaffinches, larks, hedge-sparrows, jays, &c., are seen at various times in
the island of Heligoland and elsewhere, under these conditions.

The migrations of our summer birds, Mr. Seebohm tells us, take place
patechaloaiy

XXvili INTRODUCTION.

with a favourable wind, the birds preferring what is called a “beam”
wind, and for which they will wait for many days, and the moment it
arrives, with a common impulse, they will start on their journey. True
migratory birds generally depart in the following order, but they do not
invariably travel in flocks. The lead is taken in the first week by all the
spring birds, in the second week the males follow, in the third the females,
the last batch being composed of the maimed and crippled birds. A
Committee of the British Association is at present engaged in investiga-
ting the subject of the migrations of birds, and it has already published
several interesting interim reports.

Closely connected with the subject of migration, and equally deserving
of systematic observation, is the congregation or flocking of birds in the
autumn and winter months, as it is probably correlated with hibernation of
fishes and reptiles. Referring to this subject, Gilbert White says, “As
these animals are actuated by instinct to hunt for necessary food, they
should not, one would suppose, crowd together in pursuit of sustenance
at a time when it is most likely to fail; yet such associations do take
place in hard weather chiefly, and thicken as the severity increases. As
some kind of self-interest and self-defence is no doubt the motive for the
proceeding, may it not arise from the helplessness of their state in such
rigorous seasons ?” And he thinks the flocking of different species in the
autumn, such as rooks and starlings, may be due to the greater skill of
one species for finding food.

ANIMALS.

Our native wild animals are few in number, and as they are nearly all
of them looked on as pests or vermin, they are rarely seen. The section
ofthe Diary set apart for observations on animals will, however, be avail-
able for recording facts relating to our domesticated animals, whether on
the farm, the hearth, or the kennel, and a list of all our common animals
is included in the general index for this purpose.

METEOROLOGICAL OBSERVATIONS.

The whole of the meteorological data refer to the twenty years 1865-84,
and was collected at Marlborough under the usual conditions, and the
averages have been worked out from the original observations. The
average mean, maximum, and minimum temperatures are given for each
day of the year; and the accumulated temperatures above 42° for each
day of the year, counting from Ist January. The mean barometrical
pressure is given for each month, and is repeated every day of the month.
The rainfall and the number of days on which rain fell are given for each
month (and after being distributed equally over each day of the month)
for every day: the accumulated rainfall is given for each day of the year,
counting from Ist January. The mean relative humidity is added to this
Jatter entry. In Leap Year the accumulated temperature and rainfall are

INTRODUCTION. Xxix

added to the 28th of February. The following instructions for calcula-
ting the mean and the accumulated temperatures are taken from the
Weekly Weather Reports of the Royal Meteorological Society :

Daily mean temperature. This is not the simple arithmetical mean
between the daily maximum and minimum in the shade, but is calculated
from these by the following method: “The approximate mean daily
temperature is found by multiplying the diverence between the observed
maximum and minimum by the proper co-efficient, shown in the following
table, and adding the product to the observed minimum.'

January, February, March. April, May, June,
December. | November. October, September, August. July.
0°520 07500 0°485 0°476 0°470 0°465

Accumulated temperature. This is designed to give persons engaged
in agriculture and horticulture better means of estimating the manner in
which vegetation is affected by temperature than that afforded by the
usual readings of the thermometer. It shows for the day, and for the
whole period from the Ist of January, the daily and progressive values
respectively of the combined amount and duration of the excess or defect
of the air temperature above the base temperature of 42° F., the tem-
perature at which vegetation is said to be stationary, and above which
growth and ripening of crops &c. is effected in European climate.

The accumulated temperature is expressed in Day-deyrees; a day-
degree signifying 1° F. of excess or defect of temperature above or below
42° F. continued for twenty-four hours, or any other number of degrees
for an inversely proportional number of hours. It has been ascertained
by calculation from a considerable series of hourly observations at various
places, that the accumulated temperature may be computed, with a very
tolerable approximation to the truth, from the observed daily maximum
and minimum temperatures alone. ‘When the temperature during any
period remains either wholly above or below the dase temperature, the
difference between the base and the mean temperature gives the correct
accumulated temperature. In other cases this difference gives a value
which does not depart greatly from the truth, the deviation depending on
the greater or less extent of the variations of the temperature above or
below the base. Further, since the mean between the maximum and the
minimum of any day is nearly equal to the mean temperature of the day,
the difference of the mean of the maximum and minimum from the base
(42°) will give directly a fair approximation to the accumulated tempera-
ture for the day.

The following rules will supply a close approximation to the true values
sought, and have been adopted in the preparation of the table in the
Weekly Weather Report. They may be applied to any other base tem-

perature as well as to 42° F., with the slight modification of the numerical
coefficients mentioned in the last rule.

RULES FOR COMPUTING THE ACCUMULATED TEMPERATURE ABOVE OR BELOW
42° F. FROM THE OBSERVED MAXIMUM AND MINIMUM.

1. Multiply the difference between the maximum and minimum by the proper co-
efficient for the month shown in Section II. (see adove), and the result will be the differ-
ence between the mean temperature for the day and the minimum.

2. Then the accumulated temperature will be obtained as follows :

F., or egual to 42° F. F., over the minimum
deduct the difference be-
tween the mean for the
day and the minimum ;
or subtract the mean for
the day from 42° F.

3. The quantities thus obtained must be multiplied by the number of days in the
period, that is by 7 for a weekly period.
4. If the base temperature be 32° F. or 42° F., the multiplier in Rule 2 for a weekly
period is four-tenths ; if 52° F. it is 0°33 ; if 62° F. it is o-as.
A full explanation of these rules will be found in Appendix II. to the Quarterly
Weather Report for 1878,

Accumulated rainfall. Local variations in climate are very largely de-
pendent on differences of rainfall. A striking example of this is found in
Skye on the west and the Laigh of Moray on the east coast of Scotland,
at a distance of 70 or 80 miles apart, but in the same latitude. The mean
temperature of these two regions in no month of the year differs so much
as two degrees, and for several of the months they are nearly identical,

INTRODUCTION. Xxxi

but in Skye the rainfall rises to and sometimes exceeds 100 inches, while
on the shore of the Frith of Moray it is only about 26 inches. This differ-
ence in the rainfall, with the clear skies and bright sunshine which result
from it, makes the eastern station one of the earliest and finest grain-pro-
ducing districts in Scotland, while in Skye cereals cannot be cultivated
profitably. A similar but less marked difference is found on the south-
east coast of England, where on the Downs and the districts north of
them there is a rainfall exceeding 30 inches, while on the strip of coast
from Dover to the Isle of Wight the rainfall is below that amount.

The influence of rainfall in producing local variations of climate has not
been taken into account by Dr. Hoffmann or the Phenological Committee
of the Meteorological Society in the preparation of their schemes of obser-
vation, and I have therefore worked it out ina manner which will best show
the part it plays in modifying the climate, as well as in supplying the
moisture necessary to the growth of plants. The rainfall for each day
has been obtained by dividing the rainfall for each month equally over all
the days of the month; and the accumulated rainfall is the sum of these
daily estimates for every day of the year, counting from the Ist of January.
The humidity of the atmosphere is also an important factor in the produc-
tion of local climates and in the growth of vegetation, and it has there-
fore been included in the monthly meteorological tables.

EXPLANATIONS.

The Diary consists of 365 pages, or one page for each day of the year,
and the number of the page corresponds with the number of the day
counting from Ist January.

The ordinary figures (¢.g., I, 2, 3, 4, &c.) refer to the day and also to
the page, and the Roman numerals (¢.g., I., II., HI., IV., &c.) to the
months.

The blank spaces opposite the printed matter are for new entries refer-
ring to the plants, insects, birds, &c., already entered in the Diary, and’
the blank spaces between the different sections or headings for entries of
entirely new observations. For greater convenience of statistical treat-
ment and to economize space, new entries should be made in the day of
the year rather than the day of the month, and a table is given on the
last page of the index to facilitate this mode of entry.

For explanations of the meteorological observations see page xxviii.

The entries relating to plants and insects are made twice. The first
entry under the heading LOOK FOR is the date of the earliest appearance
of flowers and insects during the past twenty years. This entry is intro-
duced as a warning that the flowers and insects may be expected to
appear on or after that date in climates similar to that of Marlborough.
The number after this entry shows the page at which the second and
principal entry will be found. The second entry shows the average time

XXxil INTRODUCTION.

‘ of the appearance of the object, the two sets of figures following the
scientific name indicating the range of dates from which the average is
deduced. It is opposite this entry that new observations referring to the
same objects are to be placed, whether they occur on the same day or not-

The various headings suggest new subjects for inquiry on a systematic
plan, and the spaces between them are to be used for this purpose.

To ensure uniform results the following rules must be observed :—

Daily observation is necessary within a definite area.

Meterological observations are to be made according to the regulations.
of the Royal Meteorological Society.

Plants and trees blossoming—z.e., first blossoms open at several.

places in the natural habitat of the plant.

ra surviving—flowers surviving from a previous season. This
term might also be used to signify the period during which
plants and trees continue in blossom, but if used for this pur-
pose it must be stated with each entry.

ee premature—unseasonable blossoming, such as the flowering of
primroses, violets, gorse, fruit trees, horse-chestnut, &c., in
the autumn.

es second blossoming—some of our flowers and trees, such as the
honeysuckle, often blossom twice a year.

Trees, &c., leafing—first leaf-surface visible, the beginning of the un-
folding of the leaves.

Seeds germinating—the first appearance of the plant above the ground.

Fruit ripening—first fruit ripe ; with berries definite colouring,

Leaves changing—half the leaves changed and half green, or general
autumn colouring. (Dr. Hoffman says “more” than half the leaves
changed in colour, but this is such an indefinite term that no uniform
results can be expected from it.)

Leaves falling—beginning of the natural defoliation of trees.

The character of the observations to be made on insects, birds, and
animals, are sufficiently indicated by the various headings on the
pages of the Diary.

INSTRUCTIONS.—When it is desired to record an observation in the
Diary, turn to the index and see if the object to which it refers is already
entered. If it be, turn to the page and enter the new observation in the
blank space opposite to the printed entry; but if it be not, turn to the
day on which the observation is made and enter the object under its
proper heading, and do not fail to enter the number of the page in the
index for future reference.

The Wild Birds Protection Acts provide a close season for all birds that are not
included under the head of “‘game.” The general close season is between the Ist
day of March and the 1st day of August, but exceptions are made in different
counties by authority of the Home Secretary. The close season has been altered
in Lincolnshire, and also in the county of Huntingdon, the liberty of Peterborough,
and the Isle of Ely—from March 15 to August 31 (both inclusive); in Essex till
March 15 as regards curlew, dunbird, godwit, oxbird, snipe, widgeon, wild goose,
and woodcock ; and in Northumberland the close season is between March 1 and
August II. In that part of Devonshire which is included within the limits of the
Exe Fishery District, the operation of the Act is suspended as far as cormorants or
shags are concerned ; so that these birds may be killed throughout the close season,
owing to their destructiveness to the salmon fisheries.

NOTES ON THE ‘‘GAME LAWS.” \

1. THE right to the game, rabbits, woodcocks, snipes, &c., upon any land, belongs

to the tenant or occupier of the soil, unless he has made an agreement by which he
foregoes that right. But if, after so doing, he breaks his agreement, either by killing
the game himself, or by giving permission, to others to do so, lie becomes liable to a
fine of 2/., and 1/. additional for each head of game killed ; and any permission which
he has given will not shield from prosecution the person who has acted under it.
' 9, Every occupier of land (whether he be owner or tenant) has the tight to kill hares
and rabbits on the land in his occupation, notwithstanding that the shooting may be-
reserved or let to any other person; and the occupier cannot divest himself of this
concurrent right, even though he wishes to let the shooting in its entirety, for any
agreement to do so is rendered void by the terms of the Act.

“3, The license or certificate to kill game differs in cost according to the length of
time for which it is taken out. Thus, if taken out on or after the rst of August, to
expire on the 31st of July of the following year, the cost of the certificate, which is
_ Panted on ved paper, is 3/. ; if taken out as above, but to expire on the 31st of October,
' the cost will be 2/., and the certificate g7eez ; if taken out on or after the 1st of Novem-
ae and to expire on the 31st of July, the certificate will be yellow, and the cost also
2i, A game license for fourteen days costs 1/., and the colour is white.

4. The penalty for trespass in the day time (which begins one hour. before sunrise
and ends one hour after sunset) in pursuit of game, rabbits, &c., is 22. and costs. Any
person who shall take or destroy game or rabbits by night (which begins one hour after
sunset and ends one hour before sunrise) is liable to three’ months’ imprisonment for
the first offence, and six months for the second, and to find sureties for twelve months
in the first case, and two years in the next ; andif he offends a third time he becomes
liable to be sentenced to penal servitude. :
