The Dawson news. (Dawson, Ga.) 1889-current, 1903-06-03

A statement has recently been maze
bv an eminent ornithologist TO the
effect that young quail in six weeks
time would destroy its weight insects
This assertion is deserving OF some
consideration by our representatives
In the legislature, and the people as
we'll There can be no doubt there
has been a wantou destruction OF game
and other birds in Georgia for some
wears. Hunters from cities go out
almost daily during the hunting season
and slaughter hundreds OF these feath-
cred tribes for no other reason tnan
that of pastime and pleasure. 1t
seems almost cruel to STAY these olros
in snch wholesale fashion, and the
practice has resulted in reducing the
number of birds in this state to a small
number comparatively.
If these game birds will devour even
a tithing of the insects attributed 10
them it is certainly worth our while to
protect them against the hunters gun
and potter's trap. The question is one
of much Importance to grain growers
and farmers of Georgia. This state Is
said to give the birds the least protec-
tion of any state in the union, and the
have been the losers.
The famous bull bat bill became the
butt of every paragrapher in the state,
and the bill was literally laughed OF
the legislative calendar. But the
measure was really meritorious, and II
il had become a law probably the
truckmen and farmers would have
been benefited.
Those of long experience in garden
ing and agriculture claim that thou
sands of plants and other products OF
the soil are annually DESTROYED by the
yoracious insects. Many crops have
been ruined by these insatiate enc
mics. 1t would seem that the tillers
of the soil have quite enough to con-
tend against in the way of droughts,
rains and disastrous seasons in general
without being mepaced by pestilence
of bugs.
We trust Georgia will fall in line
with her sister states aud pass a law
which means so much to so per cent OF
its population.

The Telegraph Yesterday printed
letter from William butcher OF Ne"
York, chairman of the American Or
nithologist Union, in regard TO the
protection of birds in Georgia Inc
getter is addressed to the citizens OF
this state. The communication IN par'
follows:
"At the present time there is wide
snread and intelligent interest being
taken in the preservation of bird life
from an economic standpoint. This
is the result of scientific research,
which proves beyond contradiction
that birds are necessary to prevent
the enormous increase of insect life,
which without the check given by
birds would ruin the agricultural in
dustry of the country.
sat the present time Georgia pro-
tects only few of her birds, and those
only for very limited period OF the
wear. The great majority of her birds
are not protected at all.
sin October, 1902. bird protection
hill was introduced in the house OF
representatives it was simple and
concise measure, and if it is made
law will give absolute protection TO
the valuable birds of Georgia. This
hin Is known as house bill No. 5. Sub
seouentlv a bill for the protection o
cane birds was introduced, which is
known as house bill No. ITO; this was
followed by a substitute for bills Nos.
S and ITO.
"rhe legislature should reconsider
and mass house bill No. 5, which is
che model law recommended by the
limited States department of agricult-
ure. and which, prior to January, l9o3'
had been adopted by eighteen states,
and since January has been adopted by
the following states: Virginia, North
Carolina. Tennessee, sTexas, Mime"
sofa. Colorado, Washington ana Ore
gon. making twenty-six states in all
that have adopted the model law.
Georgia gives the least protection
TO birds of any state in the union ana
as her agricultural interests rank very
high it seems only reasonable ana
rroner that she should protect by law
what.is one of her most valuable assets
