From Martha's VIneynrd ff th coast of Massachusetts comes word that the heath hen Is facing the extinction that few years ago over-too-k another American bird, tire passenger rlgeon. Despite all the efforts that have been made to preserve the rspld-l- y decreasing numtars of this specie of grouse (Tor the conservation of which more than 300,000 already, ha been spent), the heath hen seems to b doomed. Martha's Vineyard Is the only place In the world where It can l found and It is believed that there are now only shout twenty specimens of the bird left on the Island, a decrease of fifteen from last year. The story of the heath hen Is a tragic but by ao means on unusual One In r country which has become notorious for Its prodlgnllty In wasting its natural resource. In many respects It Is similar to the story of the passenger pigeon whose numbers were at one time so countless that no on believed that they could ever he entirely killed off. So an appalling alaughter of the birds went on for years until a passenger pigeon .became a rarity and before sportsmen' and bird lovers realized It, It was too lute to save the species from (xttnctlon. The last survivor died In the Cincinnati Zoological gardens In 1014. These birds, once so numerous that wltldn the memory of thousands of person row living their flight liter-nlldarkened tho sky," were wiped out of existence in a little more than two decades I .A hundred, and fifty years ago the heath hen was one of the principal game birds .of New England and the middle Atlantic states. It was distributed from Capo Ann to Virginia and It was esjteclnlly abundant In the lowland of Massachusetts. Connecticut and I.ong Island. When the early settlers began to cut off the forests the decline of the heath hen started. Its straight unswerving flight made It an easy target for the hunter In the ojen,' end It was shot spd trapped st all seaona. The spread of civilization and the Increasing nuinler of cats and dogs which killed Its young further, decimated the heath hen nntU It was practically extinct on the mainland and the few left were on Martha's Vineyard. Apparently no measurea were taken for its protection until this time, but on account of the scarcity of predatory animals on the Hand, the strict Jlre patrol and the legislative measures which were finally lakon to save the birds, the heath hen seemed to have a good chance to Increase In numbers. Such has not been the case, however. Twenty years ago there were about fifteen hundred bird! on the Island. By lfl4 that number had shrunk to. Ies than fifty. Last year the census taken by Prof. Alfred Gross of Bowdoin college, on of the foremost ornithologists la the country, showed that there wore only left, and now bird lovers of New England arqdarmed to learn that this pitiful remnant apparently hns'bot stUl further reduced In spite of all the efforts that - have been made to sav them. The heath hen closely resembles the western prairie chicken. It Is, light reddish brown above, barred with Mack and buff. At. the sides of the neck there are tufts of black feathers, on each sac and over each aide I sn orange-colorecomb.

The birds run. Jump, bow, toot and cackle In their unique pastime. Their short tails are cocked forward over their backs, the black neck feathers stand out stiffly at different angles until at last they point directly forward over the crested heads Ilk th ear of a Their breasts are puffed up and the Jr aaca are distended until the bird looks almost twice Ms natural size. They prance backward and forward, flapping their wings, and from their throats come s series of squeals, cackles, clucks, chuckles and laughing sound Often, two birds will run toward each other until they ere almost beak to beak. Then they remain motionless for severul minutes. Sometimes they fight, but for the most part, their Ume Is spent In tooting and dancing. The morning dance usually lasts until the sun U high In the sky and ' then the birds scuttle back Into the recesses of the 5,000 acres of scrub onk In the center of the Island whlh they frequent Sometimes they come obt to repeat their dance again Just after aunset If the efforts to save the heath hen are unsuccessful It will be a tragic recurrence of the fate which overtook the passenger pigeon, although the ruthless slaughter of these bird Is a more shameful record to be laid at the door of Americans than will be tlielr failure to save the heath hen. The destruction of the pigeons began within forty years. after the first settlers came to New Eng- Jack-rabb- it - evefy case It has turned out that the discoverer had seen some other member of the dove fjmliy which Is easily confused with the pasunw pigeon. And so despite the high rewards that are still standing for proof that the passenger pigeon Is still In existence, a single authentic specimen Is yet to be revealed. So the next time you see a newspaper story stating that one of these birds has been seen, just put It down that some amatoor ornithologist has made soother mistake. Tim passenger pigeon (Ectoplstes mlgratorlu) IS extinct Although the heath hen Is the only bird uhi.-now seems definitely doomed to follow the pnwn-gepigeon Into the sunset, there are several .;i. r species which are In dunger of extinction. One ,f these Is s close relative of the heath hen tV prairie chicken. Only a few years ago the boo- uj of these birds was still to be heard everyvv! re Id the prairies of the Middle West end the encm part of the Great Plain In many plnr tb:i sound Is becoming rare, and.even though the pr. rl chicken does not now seem to be In iuimi.icnr danger of extinction certainly Its numbers l ue been so greatly reduced that it can be eu!!d a , r Vanishing American.

Just as In the case of the pa-- r pigeon, Americans would have scoffed at the mei that, this noble 'nlm&l could ever be In d.u of extinction. So long as the buffalo was kin-Indian and only to supply the food needs the first white settlers on Its ranges, there n.'J no danger. Then the hide hunter came upoo the scene.
