CONCERNING THE CROW Ae a Pet or Pest Something About Bon Hassan Perhaps a little more might be said about the despised and troublesome crow We have one that has been with us a year and a half He was caught when old enough to fly and could feed himself and is not as tame as some we have seen But Ben Hassan that is his name will come when called and can see a piece of bread in your hand five or fifty rods away A crow can no doubt see as plainly fifty rods away as a man can two feet away from any object But Ben objects to come nearer his best friends than thirty feet and will keep a greater distance from a stranger unless he is in the lieu house where he has a spate barrel with a motherly old hen which left her quar ters and took up her abode with Ben Generally Ben is more of an expert than a person about liens He know s good and bad hens and hens with chickens and the rooster Some of the hens look just alike to a person but Ben knows them all He
