Some Useful Hawks.
of The Evening Star:

L" the Editor of The Evening Star:
was very sorry to see in your last night 3
paper request for the wholesale destruc-
tlon of hawks. 1t is a matter which has
been much agitated lately by the Depart
ment of Agriculture, and after long and
careful investigation the verdict was gen.
orally IN favor of the hawks two species
only being condemned. These were the
Coopers and sharp-shinned. From this re-
port and from my own observations 1 should
pronounce both of these species exceeding
~ dangerous to game birds and poultry
Both of these hawks keep generally with
in the woods when pursuing their prey oc-
caslonally making a raid upon the farm
house. Therefore | think it extremely
doubtful if these or any of the larger
hawks would be caught by the method pro
posed by you On the other hand, the spar
row hawk would be frequently caught and
thus the farmer would lose many of his
valuable allies in keeping down the locust
pest AS for one OF these birds eating a
quail, the thing would be- physically i'm
possible
lndiscriminate shooting would be nearly
as bad as trapping, for the sparrow, broad
wing and red-tailed hawks would because
of their greater tameness. more often fall
before the gun than the wilder and more
dangerous species. Can you think of no
other plan than this one. which is likely
TO result in the death of so many species
valuable to the farmer?
