THE GAME LAW.
There Has Been General Misun-
derstanding i'm It's Application.

It is manifest that there has been
a misunderstanding of the game law
and especially as to the requirements
of the Federal statutes. 1t may not
be generally known, but the fact is
patent that any one who would kill
any of the migratory birds should
become acquainted with the govern
ment regulations permitting their
being hunted. All migratory birds
such as snipe, geese, ducks, ETC.. and
all nOn-game birds have the prOtec-
ton of the Department of Agricul-
ture of the United tSates. 1t is Nio-
lative of the law to kill such birds
before Nov. 4 and limited to Feb. 1.
The non-game birds are all native
song birds and MISUNDERSTANDING
birds. such as red birds, thrashers,
jay birds, sap suckers, mocking
birds, field larks, orioles, blackbirds,
song sparroWs, etc. Offenders are
