4 Sensible Game Law SUGGESTED at Last

chicken is very limited. II consisted OF
strip of territory bordering on the Mcdi.
tcrranean Sea on the southern border OF
Europe, the western border of Asia, and
part OF the northern shore OF Africa
The chicken was not domesticated until
after the coming Of Christ. Then we
learn from ClX,us that certain fowl
very shy OF mankind was brought to
Athens and after three seasons reared
progeny Since then the chicken has be-
come the most numerous Of all birds. II
laws were to be enacted protecting chick

private industry there would not be

any pheasant into the State. They say
that law was passed 10 increase the num-
Der Of New York pheasants. Another law
is that Of Indiana, which permits the rear
ing and sale Of pheasants, but forbids any
railroad or express company to accept
them for shipment. The asininity Of such
laws is self.evident.
While the ring-neck pheasant in a
strange country and in all it's different
climates has thriven because it has been
raised by private parties as a business
enterprise, the prairie chicken, native
grouse, quail and other native game birds
have been almost exterminated by disease,
natural enemies, rodents and the gradual
thickening Of the human population which
destroys their feeding and hiding places
Give private parties the right to rear
quail as a business and the interested
persons will protect, feed and care for
them, and as a consequence they will

who in that season set seventy-6ve thou

that this is a typographical error The
figure is $4,000
On the other hand, as soon as the sue
cessful rearing Of pheasants was assured
in the United States. some OF the fool
game hunters, game commissioners and
legislators succeeded In having several
States enact laws prohibiting their do.
mestic rearing and handling. The result
IS that It is taking US a painfully long
period OF time to put upon solid foun-
dation an industry that England made
success in ten years. 1t is due solely to
private industry that we have the ring
neck In America
The States that interfered with Chinese
pheasant culture have in the main seen
the light and 1t is now permissible to rear
tho birds IN most States. There are still
some fowl laws TO be repealed, but as
they are not enforced It is not matter

passed by tho State of New York. 1t

eTfHE Game Bird Society of the United
States is urging the passage OF this
In very sensible new game law:
"That all birds and animals reared
or bred in captivity shall be consid-
cred domestic stock. and the owner or
raiser thereof may keep, sell. ship,
transport or otherwise dispose Of
them, and such stock Shall not be az
fected or covered by any Laws pro-
hibiting or regulating the killing or
disposition OF birds and animals OF
the game kind grown or propagated in
a wild state"
In support OF the intelligence o: such a
law the society points out That OF the eggs
of quail set By the birds in n wild state
81 per cent hatch OF the eggs OF the
same bird Matched in captivity on private
game farms - per cent hatch OF the
birds Matched in the wild state u per cent
attain maturity. OF the eggs Matched In
private preserves, Ga per cent mature.
These figures are taken from one hundred
and seven observations made in the wears
1905, 1909, 1910, 1911. 1872. 1919 and 1914.

OFFICERS ARE NOT
ENFORCING THE Law

The Wells-Herald In its issue o.

nance for muzzling dogs is not being

Notwithstanding the fact that the
county commissioners at a recent
meeting made it unlawful for owners

penalty, many people in various parts
of the county, including Wells, seen
prone to defy the ordinance and are
paying no attention to the order OF
the board. This is not right. The
conditions making necessary the i'm,
position of this order were critical
and the order vas only passed after
a full investigation OF the situation by
the commissioners and the district
attorney. In order to promptly pro,
tect human life it is now necessary
that the commissioners take the
proper steps to enforce this ordinance.
No person who happens to have a
log that has never attacked or bitten
anyone should consider himself OF
his animal immune from the oper.
alton of the law. Any dog that may
become infected with the rabies at

most savage canine in the land, and
it is time that ALL persons were
compelled to obey this law. Every,
