Little Device to Scare Ducks Away From Fields
Washington, July 28. A new electric beacon device planned to frighten ducks from grain fields, endorsed by government experts, may be used in the Platte river valley and across California and Texas. Charles Alldredge of the Fish and Wildlife Service calls it a major advance in duck frightening, using a rotating light and timed off periods to mislead feeding waterfowl. The invention aims to reduce crop damage while conserving power, replacing older methods like beating pans and flares.
