- Send your feathers

OTTAWA (CP) — It’s bad enough when the govern- ment wants your money. Now it wants all your purple martin feathers, too.

The federal Environment

Department is asking Can- adians to help trace the migration-habits of the birds by sending. any feathers to Ottawa.

Purple martins, it seems,

spend their summers in Can- ada and the United States, and migrate as far. south as southern Brazil in the winter.

This winter, Brazilian nat- uralists in five cities.in Sao Paulo province. sprinkled a non-toxic dye on about 30,000 purple martins. Birds in each city received a different colored dye.

The program, however, did

not turn'purple martins into birds of a different color.

The dye is a fine powder that shows up only under ultra-violet light.

Feathers turned in will be checked under ultra-violet lamps to see whether the

‘Brazilian dye, called a “micro-

tag” is present. Purple martins eat mos- quitos.

City won't pay for valves .

By CasNews Staff

Castlegar City Council decided last week that Southridge Drive residents will have to pay for their own water pressure — reducing valves.

The city is recommending the valves be installed when the area is switched from a small water booster pump station to the new water ‘supply main at the end of July, said city engineer George Reshaur.

A petition signed by 17 Southridge Drive residents argues that “the reducing valve is needed due to the actions of the city and is therefore the city’s respon- sibility.”

The petition goes on to say that the “Two-week time frame to make any changes is not convenient or’ reason-
