NO OPEN TIME FOR
REED OR RICE BIRD
Bobolink Placed on Song List
by New Federal Regu-
latiOns.

WARRINGTON, d. c., Aug. 24.-There
will be no reed or rice bird shooting this
year in New Jersey, Pennsylvania,
Delaware. Maryland. District of Column
bia, Virginia. North Carolina, South
Carolina and Georgia this year. In the
past shooting has been permitted from
September l to November 80. but the
new Federal regulations have placed the
reed or rice bird, which in reality is the
bobolink, on the song bird list
Rice planters, particularly in South
Carolina. have stated that the reed bird
or rice bird does millions OF dollars OF
damage to the rice crop, and as far back
as 1870 South Carolina placed a bounty
upon this bird. 1t is only during its mi
gratory period that the rice bird is SO
destructive to South Cardinals rice crops.
II Is when the bobolink is through
with reproducing It's own kind and takes
on a sober coat of cnottled yellowish
gray and ceases TO sing, merely utter
ing the one note "chink-chick." that II
becomes a different bird. Then It starts
on its wonderful Journey. and this little

fact that 1t Is lover of the wild rice
that grows IN the estuaries and swamps
Of the middle Atlantic States. and when
1t arrives in South Carolina the planted
rice Is lin the milk" and here the plant
ers regard the bird as a pest.
Wherever there are rice plantations
It is necessary to employ "minders." who
with powder and shot kill the birds by
the thousands or drive them away.
The flight of these birds from Jamaica
across the Caribbean Sea to South
America Is somewhat remarkable For
400 miles there Is not a reef or islet
where the birds can stop. The birds fly
that distance without a single stop.

Orangeburg to take in the fair.
Mr.. Charles Ehrhardt is making
somewhat of a mansion out of his
