GAME BIRD FARMING NEEDED

General prohibition of the sale OF
migratory birds has created a great
demand for domesticated birds to sup
ply the markets. To meet these de-
mands the regulation under the mi
gratory bird treaty act, made in 1916
between the United States and Great
Britain for the protection OF game
birds migrating between this country
and Canada, make liberal provisions
for the propagation of migratory
waterfowl. These provisions apply to
all persons who possess migratory
waterfowl.

number of wild waterfowl to he used

A dozen eggs will cost about the
same as a pound OF beefsteak. The
food value of the eggs is more than

considerably more persons than the
