PROTECTION FOR WILD BIRDS
BY Imperial Decree They Are 0uar6o4
and Cared for Throughout the
German Empire.

The German war department has
issued an order directing local conn
manders to see that wild birds set
Ting in the immediate neighborhood
of barracks and other military build
ings are protected. The emperor
holds strong views on the subject,
and the movement generally for the
protection of bird life is being car
ried on under the imperial aegis. His
great powers as supreme chief Of the
army notably are being employed BY
him to secure his end. Under ce1-
tain conditions, especially in the
neighborhood of army hospitals, mil.
itary commanders are now instructed
to reserve spaces, plant bushes, and.
in some cases, to provide hanging
nesting boxes for the birds Of tho
neighberhood.
To the kaiser's influence has also
to be credited the policy which the
Prussian railway administration has
been following for the last few years
in planting embankments with
sturdy bushes (chosen among the less
infammable varieties, for harboring
birds nests, while nests built in sta
tion buildings have long been con-
sidered as practically under imperial
and royal protection. Within the last
twelve months the emperor has also
completed the planting Of portion
of the estate of his castle at Celle,
near Hanover, which is to be r.
served as a "birds' paradise"
