If you kill or capture wild duck

leg. having a number on one side, and
on the other a statement requesting
that the United States Department of
Agriculture, or the Biological Survey,
be notified, you are requested to send
this band at once to the Bureau of

band, if accompanied by statement as
to date. place. and circumstances under
which the bird was taken, will be of
service to the Survey in its efforts to
determine the longevity of Individual
ducks and the routes of migration of
the species. The bands are being at

duck of several species which have
been cured of the duck sickness pre-
