Protection for the Quail.

To the Editor OF the indianapolis Journal:
At each of the last three sessions of the
Indiana Legislature a bill has been intro
duced forbidding the killing Of quail for q
certain number of years. No State has q
better law than ours. and none more uni
versally observed. There is before the
House now a bill (H. r.. No. 24) forbldding
the killing of quail for two years. The OBJ
ject of this bill is. no doubt. to make quail
more ~abundant; but a greater mistake could
not be made. 1t is not the gun that destroys
so many birds. but the cold waves that
sweep down suddenly from the north that
freeze them to death as they sit huddled
perature falls 1SO or POO below zero the
quails are frozen to death in whole covies.
They rarely seek a sheltered place to roost;
but are usually found in the open field,
oftentimes in the most exposed positions.
During the seasons of 1854 and ''55 the
quail were more abundant than ever known
before or since in his State. The three
preceding winters had been mild and the
summers dry and favorable to their nest,
ing; but the winter of 1886 almost destroyed
the entire crop. When spring came and
summer the whistle of the male bird was
rarely heard. When the season arrived for
shooting il was a rare thing to lind a covey
From 1856 a gradual increase took place
until Jan. /, 1864. On the morning of that
day the mercury fell from twenty to TWEEN
ty-tive degrees below zero. Thousands and
tens of thousands of birds were frozen to
death before noon.
From 1864 to 1881 the increase was slow.
1t more han once occurred where the win
ter was mild that the summer was wet and
unfavorable for nesting. and SO no increase
took place.
The winter of 1881 like those of 1856 and
1861 was also destructive to the quail. In
many portions of the State one-half or more
of the crop persisted from cold, and in other
portions nine out of ten died from starva-
ton, the ground being covered with snow
for q long time.
The excessive cold of winter and a wet
The summer of 1888 was a fair illustration
of the injurious effect of q wet season. The
first nestings of quail and the prairie hen
were both W out by the excessive
rains OF May, June and July. Many of the
quail had 4 second brood. The prairie hens
never have but one.
Here is q simple and true history of the
increase and decrease of quail in our State
and the causes therefor, for the past twenty
nine years. If there is any portion of it
where prohibition has effected any good
we cannot see it. 1t has been tried In Ohio
and signally failed. If 1t were enforced by
law, the trap and the hawk would take the
place of the gun.
There is an abundant supply of quails
greater than for many years past-and
we appeal to you to protect us from the
passage of a law that would prevent our
enjoying them at the proper season.
The Lord giyeth the increase" So let
ms enjoy 1t when it comes. and not make
avs to forbid hat over which we have no
control. A. e. LANIER.-
MADISON, Ind. Jan. "a.

our quails, the sportsmen of the State
would see that it would be enforced; as 1t
IL, no hunter questions that quails are
more plentiful right now than on any 10Th
Gay Of January for fifteen years. Our
cold winters and abundance of snow
for tracking. prior TO the winter
of 1889, together with less recognition
of the open season, and less OBJ
lection from farmers against hunting,
sadly depleted Bob Whites ranks. But
with I'VE mild winters following and al
most total absence of o there were
more birds left over for mating last spring
than for many years, and there is now no
question but there will be from o~ne-fourth
TO one-half more for next spring.
Instead of a prohibitory law for all let
the law remain as 1t is-prohibltory Tor
those who wish TO make 1t such. The law
should now be changed So as to apply to
uninclosed cultivated lands as well as to
Enclosed lands. as less fencing is being done
each year, as fewer stock run at large. es-

will protect the farmer more, as the very

Then. again, to put the farmer hunter on
q level with the city shooter. open the
season later-some time after ''corn-husk-
iug"-not earlier than Nov. /, the 18th
the better, and possibly Dec. ], and let it ex-
tend to Jan. /. The farmers are annoyed
moro in two weeks of corD-husking han all
the remainder of the open season of ten
weeks. If the hunting could all be done in
December they would hardly know that
hunting was being done on their farms, for
at this time their stock is nearly all up or
near the barns, and their teams are not
afieId.
Give us changes in the game law, but not
prohibition, and dollars to buttons. if made
in line with the above suggestions. three
fourths of the farmers would support it.
Prohibition is too radical. Every farmer
has his friends among city s~portsmen, and
vice versa, and we will allfeel better If the
law remains so that o fraternal feeling may
be cultivated. Provided, always. that 1t
shall not be lone at the expense of dimin-
ishing Bob Whites numbers from year to

A Farmer-sportsmau Protests Against Ger
tain Proposed Radical Changed.
To the Editor of the indianapolis Journal;
There seems to be considerable sentiment
in the present Legislature of this State
favoring tho taking of quails out of the
list of game birds altogether. This arises
from the fact that our lawmakers are more
largely farmers than ever before. From
the farmers standpoint i think this all
wrong. The claim that the quail is valu-
ably insectivorous will not pear investi-
CATION. i have seen the contents of many
craws during the insect season, but never
saw an insect in ~them-always seed or
grain. But. even suppose they are. If ex-
clusively insectivorous this would be a
poor reason why man should not exercise
his God-given dominion over them and
utilize their flesh. / think that it is on &C
count of annoyance from buaters that
pronibited. which will. of course,
greatly diminish the too constant
bang of the shotgun during "corn
busking." and while stock is still subsist-
ing largely OH pasture. But the present
law is surely ample TO protect farmers from
hunters on Enclosed lands. If IL need be
more SO, require the consent to be in writ
ing. III the farmers make hall an ouort
they absolutely can prohibit hunting. If
they will make one-f0urth of an effort-do
something more than post, and advertise.
and drive hunters off their land, for only a
year or two. they will be able to dictate
just who shall hunt on their FARMS. and
that, too, 1t o compensation of from two to
five dollars q day for the hunting privl-
lege of their respective farms, according to
size. They will not have to place them
selves in the position of asking for pay,
either. i think the farmers generally would
be surprised to know how the hunters are
already complaining of their restricted
hunting privileges, and some now are almost
ready 10 offer pay for the privilege. But they
Will not pay for the privilege of violating
o p%rohibitory quail law. Then. along with
this, by such q law the farmers will pro-
hibit q large number Of their neiphbore
from enjoying a privilege which has never,
in the history of legislation in this country,
been denied for the protection of the
farmer only. Illinois had a law prohibit
ing the killing of prairie chickens for q
term of years, but il was confessedly for
the protection Of the chickens. So of
