Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Birds of the Kansas City Region There has been no list of the birds of the Kansas City region which local students of birds could consult. It is hoped that the present summary of an extensive study of the avifauna of Jackson County, Missouri, and vicinity, will be of service to local nature-study classes, and to bird students in general. It is hoped also that it may stimulate that scientific interest in bird-study which is an active and powerful incentive to the growing movement for bird protection. No attempt has been made to furnish a means of identifying birds, since so many standard works covering this ground are available. A list of desirable books is given in the text. The nomenclature used is that of the American Ornithologists' Union Che-ck List. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.

Book excerpt: Excerpt from A Revised Catalogue of the Birds of Kansas: Compliments of the Author In addition to the description of the nests and eggs of the birds, I have given their times of arrival, and the earliest nests with eggs no ticed. The breeding season, however, does not really commence until a little later; and as the State is four hundred miles east and west, and rises from an elevation of about seven hundred and fifty feet to one of about four thousand feet, the times of their arrival must necessarily cover a greater period than would be given to a single locality.

This book was released on 2017-12-19 with total page 76 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Directory to the Bird-Life of Kansas This directory summarizes several kinds Of information concern ing birds of Kansas, and of mid-continental North America, and has two functions. First, it tells Something about the natural his tory of the 379 species of birds of Kansas. Second, it can help students of some kinds of birds, or of some aspect of natural history, to find out how much is known about their problem, and can Show to what extent, and frequently in what direction, further work will be useful. For instance, it can be deduced that studies on the population ecology of the Eastern Kingbird and on the behavior of the Mourning Dove, both abundant birds in our area, are needed. Also, it will be seen that we do not know exactly how many kinds of birds breed in Kansas, a matter of immediate concern in the following account. The Museum of Natural History at The University of Kansas solicits selected specimens and information that contribute to our knowledge of birds in Kansas. Donors of such material will join an already large group of persons who have contributed information, specimens, and time toward the preparation of this Directory. Chief among these is Dr. Harrison B. Tordofi', around whose Check-list of the birds of Kansas (1956) the present Directory has been elab orated; he generously made available for use in the Directory notes and comments that he had intended to use in bringing his Check list up to date. Prof. E. Raymond Hall, Dr. John William Hardy, Mrs. Lorelei Johnston, Dr. Robert M. Mengel and Mr. Max C. Thompson helped to improve a late version of the manuscript. The names of the many other persons who have helped, primarily by providing records of nesting activities, appear in the paragraph below.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Birds of Swope Park: In the Heart of America, Kansas City, Mo Living at the very border of Swope Park, Kansas City, Mo., I have opportunity for making frequent excursions into its remote regions as well as opportunity for viewing the crowds and attractions of its more frequented portions. I have mingled with the thousands of human beings that thronged to view some attractions staged for the entertainment or edu cation of the populace. Again, I have wandered for hours all alone in the various parts of the Park, and thus have been able to see certain beauties and attractions in this magnificent playground that those who mingle only With the crowds fail to see, or those who journey only in motor cars fail to hear. With no reflection on the pleasures of the picnic crowd or on the value of the artificial attractions that are brought to the Park, I have frequently felt that the public generally, failed to realize some of the natural. Beauties and items of interest that this great Park holds in store for the nature lover who has learned to read the wonders of Nature's ways and who has realized the solace of her secrets.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Birds of America, Vol. 1 To the technical descriptive matter of especial interest to the systematic ornithologist, and the popular characterizations intended particularly for the non-scientific student Of birds, has been added wherever it is called for much very important and interesting matter concerning the actual usefulness of birds. This subject of economic ornithology has been carefully investigated by the United States Bureau Of Biological Survey, whose experts have gathered and compiled a great mass of statistics and other data concerning the food habits of birds, the object being to convey precise information as to which are the useful and which are the harmful species. It would be difficult to overstate the value of this work if its results were generally understood, for these researches demonstrate beyond peradventure the enormous usefulness of the birds in destroying insect pests which, but for this check of their natural rate of increase, would ruin every year many millions of dollars worth of crops, and threaten with defoliation and death many kinds of trees.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Kansas Historical Quarterly, Vol. 1 By an act of congress of May 26, 1830, the United States government, as if in the belief that its domain embraced land enough for all its people to grow in, magnanimously set aside an indefinite area, some six hundred miles from north to south and two hundred miles in width, as Indian territory. To this region, which lay west of the territory of Arkansas and of the ten-year-old state of Missouri, extending northward to the Platte and Missouri rivers, all Indians from the eastern portion of the country were to be removed as rapidly as the government could persuade them to cede their ancestral lands and take other lands, far to the west, in exchange. The plan of the government seems to have been to make over these various Indian groups, once they had been transplanted to their new homes, into self-supporting communities. To this end, provision was made for teachers and missionaries to accompany them, and for agricultural tools and supplies, paid for out of funds held in trust for the Indians by the paternal government, to be distributed under the benevolent direction of agents appointed from Washington. The teachers were to teach the Indians their letters and the rudiments of civilized deportment. Farmers and artisans employed by the government were to teach them to plow, sow, and reap, and such elementary industrial arts as blacksmithing. Missionaries were to persuade them to give up the evil ways of barbarism and become Christians. Meanwhile, the evacuated Indian lands east of the Mississippi could be distributed to land-hungry pioneers. There is abundant record of how that grandiose plan, in its execution, fell somewhat short of expectations. And there would be no place for even a mention of it here except for the fact that one of the missionaries who accompanied a certain band of Indians into the far west had started life as a printer and in his new career combined printing with preaching. Jotham Meeker was the name of this printer-missionary. He had been born in or near Cincinnati, Ohio, November 8, 1804.

Every attempt was made to rectify the imperfections related to omitted constructs in the original edition via other references.
