Quail Thrive in safety.

Waterloo, Ia, July 15.-Passage
of the bill last winter to protect the
quail is already having a wholesome
effect.
Prior to the closed season, two
small focks of quail made their
home on the farm lands adjacent to
Prospect hills. These have now In
creased to five focks, numbering
about sixty birds. The quail are so
tame that they venture into door
yards and gardens and pursue harm
full insects in war garden plots. In
some instances the birds mount
porch rails and give their CHEEKY
calls.
