Pheasants Do Not
Cause Decrease in
Prairie Chickens

Confidence that stocking of North
Dakota with Chinese pheasants will
result in increasing the number Of
prairie chickens and grouse in the
state was expressed here today by
B. E. Jones, prominent member Of
the local chapter Of the Izaak Wal
ton League.
The league has sponsored a move
ment to bring 1000 Chinese pheas-
ants to Burleigh county where they
will be planted on game refugees for
which the league has arranged. In
dividual farmers throughout the
county are agreeing to make their
farms game refugees and are agree
ing not only to prohibit hunting on
their premises but not to hunt them
selves for the next 10 years or un-
til such time as their agreement with
the league may be terminated.
"The idea that prairie chicken and
grouse do not thive where pheasants
are abundant is wholly erroneous"
Jones said. Persons who have
studied the matter and reports to
the state game board from men in
charge of game preserves show that
the report is without foundation. 1t
is difficult to discover how the idea
first originated.
Stocking Of North Dakota coun-
ties with pheasants should result in
increasing the number Of prairie
chicken and grouse because hunters
then will have something else to
shoot at and they will not be hunted
so closely"
Sportsmen's organizations through
out much of the state are active in
urging closed season on these ma
tive birds in 1928. members Of the
state game and fish board said at
their last meeting here. The board
already has announced it's intention
Of complying with the request.
A recent issue of the official mag
szine Of the 1zaak Walton Leagu,
attributes the scarcity of the prairi
chicken and grouse to the intensive
cultivation of land in some section
and to overshooting followed by a
succession of unfavorable Matching
and rearing seasons. It is urging
its affiliated organizations to CO.
operate with state boards in an ef-
fort to save these birds before they
become practically extinct.
