THE SEAGULL
10 Protected by State and
Federal Laws-T They
are Useful

Recently the following news item
war published quite generally in the
state press, under an Ipswich date:
"A report received heie to the effect
that within a few hours about sixty
sea gulls were killed along the shores
of Scatter wood Lake, some miles from
here, has resulted in the issuing of q
warning against the killing of these
fowl which each summer come from
the great lakes and make their tenn
porsry homo in parts OF South Dako-
Ia. Those who issue the warning
call attention to the fact that these
huge birds do much good by eating
grasshoppers and cut worms in large
numbers. thus reducing the pests
which do damage to crops. 1t also
is stated that the killing of the s.a
gulls is in violation Of federal statute.
which was enacted for the protection
of these fowls"
The item attracted the attention OF
w. r. Bancroft. formerly state game
warden now of the game preservation
bureau In Washington. who writes az
follows in regard to the gull which

In the first place the name of the
gull is wrong as it is not q sea

franklin gulls is the interior of North
America. breeding FROM Iowa and the
Dakotas north to Middle Canada, and
winters from the gulf states south.
west. Under the game laws OF South
Dakota these birds are protected along
Nth all other insectivorous birds OF
all species, except those specifically
excepted by Law. and it Ia q shame
to allow them to te killed, as they
are OF much benefit to the agriculture
interests OF the localities that they
visit. Under the federal migratory
bird law, which becomes effective on
October l, or after being approved by
the president. these .birde as we'll az

this law, as Uncle Sam will stand
for no foolishness in regard to any
violations of The federal law relating
to migratory birds. 1t is expected
that tbs final regulations will be
issued abcat October /.
Since the open season for game In
