culture Of the United States government. The
biological survey has been Of great service to
the farmers of the United States and to all
men engaged either directly or indirectly in
any form of agricultural pursuits. When the
survey was threatened with extinction few
years ago by the apparent intention OF con-
gress to refuse it an appropriation, the farm
ers Of the United States with the bird pro-
tectors and the real sportsmen, rose in its de-
tense and saved 1t. The survey probably will
be spared to continue it's useful work as long
as the agricultural department has existence
The history of bird protection in the United
States naturally and of right, is connected with
the history of two organizations, the various
state Audubon societies for the protection OF
wild birds, and the American Ornithologists
union. Recently William butcher of New
York, who is the president Of the National AS
ISOLATION of Audubon societies and fellow OF
the American Ornithoogists' union, told the
ornithologists of the world assembled in con-
vention Yin European city the story OF the
bird protection movement in North America
Mr.. butcher and all the other officers of the
National Association of Audubon societies are
men who have devoted their lives to the study
of birds and to their protection.
A celebrated French scientist said not long
ago that if the bird life were to be swept out
of existence man could survive only few
months Because of the ravages Of the insects

AS William butcher says further IN MS
story of the protective movement:
I'm recognition of the action taken by the
American Ornithoogists' union In securing tne
appropriation, the secretary of agriculture IN
yited the council Of the union to select su'
perintendent to carry on the work and AT
subsequent meeting held In Washington, LIT.
Clinton Hart Merriam was selected as the su'
perintendent and DR.. Albert K. Fisher as his
assistant Both Of these noted ornithologists
we're among the founders Of the American or
nithologists' union
1t was from this humble beginning that the
present biological survey, a division OF the
United States department of agriculture, mas
grown. 1t is perfectly apparent from the let
tiers which agriculturists send to Washington
constantly that the work of the biological sur
vey has it's value appreciated more and more
every year. The survey has published great
mass of valuable statistics of the food habits
of birds and their relation to agriculture and
forestry.
AS has been said, there are Audubon soci-
cites for bird protection in nearly every state
In the Union. They affiliated in one great
society called the National Association OF Au-
dubon societies. The writer of this article
from personal knowledge can speak Of the be-
gtnnlngs of one of the largest and most &C
tive of the state organizations.
Persons who were known to be interested In
birds were asked to meet to form protective
organization. A good many persons not par
ticularly interested in bird protection also
were invited. Several women came to that
first meeting, wearing the plumage Of wild
birds in their hats. At first the society in
tended to do its work by persuasive mission
airy efforts. and along this line to consider
able extent the endeavor has been ever since,

now held in check by the birds, the vegetation
creatures would be destroyed by the insect
enemies So it would seem that If this French
scientist is right, that in making their fight
for the birds the defenders have been making
their fight for man. fact which is not ap
preciated by some of those who would suffer
were it not for the constant saving efforts of
men whom on occasion they have seen fit to
call cranks.
To lead up to the establishment of the Au-
dubon societies, Of which nearly every state
in the Union has one, it might be said that 1t
was not until the year 1883 that the public in
the United States awakened to the fact that
too many wild birds were being slaughtered
largely for millinery ornaments and other dec
orative purposes In addition, thousands of
song and insectivorous birds were killed annu
ally for food. In his story Of the movement
for bird protection President butcher told Of
the beginnings of the crusade to the
lives of the songsters which year by year were
coming back to the farm and the garden in
greatly decreased numbers. Mr. butcher said,
speaking Of the condition in 1888:
The newspapers published items almost
daily on the subject, and many strong edito-
rails were written. quotation from one OF
these entitled The Sacrifices of Song Birds
will show the eaTnestness of the press In re-
spect to the situation: The destruction Of
American wild birds for millinery purposes
has assumed stupendous proportions. The un-
holy work gives employment to a vast army
of men and women and this army wages its
campaign of destruction with diabolical per-
lection Of system.
THE editorial in question further refers
to details of the work published In other col
umns of the paper, which furnishes evidence
OF the CHASTITY character of the business. The
logical result of this newspaper agitation was
that the American Ornithoogists' union at its
annual meeting held in New York city Sep
TENDER &c. 1884, appointed committee of its
members to investigate the extent of the al
legged wild bird destruction and to devise
means to stop the slaughter by legal or any
other legitimate method
This committee found that the claims of
the press and of individuals were not in the
least exaggerated, but the other hand did
not fully represent the terrible inroads that
were being made the non-game birds.
