C4 Agricultural department goes to birds OTTAWA (CP) — The federal agriculture depart- ment is going to the birds — at least for help in controlling the number of blackbirds and pigeons feasting off Ontario's multi-million-dollar annual corn erp. After trying several other methods that didn't work Tibor Rajhathy, director of the research station at the federal central experimental farm here, says falcons are to be imported from Alberta to see if they will drive the corn poachers out of the fields. He said he did not know what kind of falcons would be used, or how many would he required to get the experi- ment off the ground. Almost 95 per cent of the national corn crop is grown in Ontario, he said, and the pig- eons and blackbirds annually gobble up about 10 per cent of it before the crop can be harvested. Unsuccessful attempts to! drive the birds off so far have included a machine that lets off a loud bang every few, minutes, tape recordings of the distress cry of a blackbird and a plastic effigy of a bird of prey hung above corn fields. i But, Rajhathy said, “the birds are too smart — they soon realize there is danger.” The falcons, reared in cap- tivity in Alberta, are to be provided by the Canadian Wildlife Service. Mechanical. horse throws James Garner By The Canadian Press James Garner is back in the saddle and this time the injury-plagued actor plans to be more careful. Garner returned to the set of Maverick at the Warner Brothers studio last week to resume filming of the new fall television series that won't have its premiere until win- ter. That’s because galloping Garner fell off a mechanical horse and broke a few ribs during filming six weeks ago. “He's in pretty good shape,” studio spokesman Jack Casey says. “Actually, he came back yesterday (Oct. 14) and was on a horse riding around.” The two-hour first show is the remake of Garner's suc- cessful series from the 1950s and 1960s. The studio ex- pects completion on the open- ing episode by Nov. 27 for broadcast Dec. 1 on NBC. Garner will probably have to jump on the mechanical horse again in the future, Casey said.
