In fact, the red species have no uo 'd to pay uiticli heed (o such matters, as they are abroad and active in the coldest days of winter as much as they are in midsummer, so precautions for food are not demanded. As the red squirrels subsist for a good part of the year upon the cones of pines and spruces, which hang to the limbs, they do not care how deep or hard the snow may lie, feeling secure in finding all the food they want among the tree- i tops.?Bangor News.
