In the 1300s, English farmers hired children to protect their crops. They were called “bird scares”. The children chased(追赶)birds and threw stones at them.Bird scares were replaced in the 1800s by scarecrow . (稻草人)A scarecrow is anything that is set in a field to scarebirds away. Often it is a pole dressed like a person. Some farms with small fields still use scarecrows today.Farming became big business in the twentieth century. Scarecrows could no longer protect the huge fields of grain, so farmers used poisons chemicals on the fields. The poison made the grain bitter.
