One important factor for the destruc-
ton Of small game IS the sleet and snow
OF severe winters. which prevent the quail
from getting to their food supplies. II is
not difficult to save these valuable little
birds by distributing food where they may
reach It. In North Carolina during Sc
we're winter thirty wardens distributed
food for quail, and the farmers aided
them by scattering grain upon the snow
New Jersey wardens have bought grain
at their own expense for the same pur-
pose, and in Indiana men haze gone out
with sleghs 70 feed the birds The same
tactics were employed in Illinois with en-
cOuraging results. The mounted police on
duty in the vicinity of Washington carry
with them in severe winter weather bags
of grain To scatter for the quail. and the
call OF Bob White is often heard almost
within sight of the dome Of the National
Capitol.
