terin the northern United States and as far south as Oklahoma. Itsstatus hi Arkansas is not well known, since it has been observed atonly one locality—Helena, October 25, 1895, and October 30, 31,1896. Prof. Cooke found these sparrows abundant at Caddo,Okla., between October 31 and February 26, a few remaining untilMarch 10/ and they may be expected to occur in Arkansas at aboutthe same dates.

The chippy is one of our most abundant and familiar sparrows.It is found in all sections of the State, having been observed at LakeCity, Turrell, Wilmot, Mena, Pettigrew, Conway, and other places;It arrives from the south early in March (earliest record at Helena,March 5) and remains until November (latest at Helena, November6).

The field sparrow occurs as an abundant migrant and winter resi-dent, but is found in the breeding season mainly in the northern andnorthwestern parts of the State. It is reported as breeding at Clin-ton, and I found it fairly common at Pettigrew and at Hoxie. Twobirds heard singing at Stuttgart May 14 were probably breeders, butthe species
