EiId Ducks.

The breeding places of the Chesapeake
ducks are in Canada, where they are being
destroyed in vast numbers 10y the cutting
away of the forest which sheltered the lakes
and pools where they harbor, and by the
use and sale of their eggs. Thousands OF
these eggs are annually marketed, and by
these methods, rather than by the numbers
actually shot, they have been greatly d.
minished. This condition OF things seems
to be beyond remedy, since State cannot
make a treaty with foreign power; aud
the general government is not likely to Ia
terfere on behalf of what is practically a
Maryland industry, or to provide such COM
pensations as Canada might see tit 10 ask
if proposal were made to her to protect
the ducks in their native habitat. So the
prospect is that fifty years will see the ex-
termination of The finest wild fowl in the
world, and one of the most priced delicacies
of the table.
The range of the wild duck reaches al
most from the Arctic to the Antarctic cir
Gle. 1t lives through the summer in the far
north, in Greenland, Iceland, Lapand, ST
IBERIA, and, as we have shown, in Canada,
until the time when the waters in those re-
gions becomes frozen, so that it can no long
er obtain its food Then begins its flight
