UNFAIR WAR ON GAME BIRDS.
Deplorable plight of game-birds in U.S.A., as described in “Nature Magazine” “We are faced with the fact that through over-shooting aided by baiting and other reprehensible practices our number of game-birds is seriously diminished, some species are fast approaching extinction. For some time we have urged a closed season on waterfowl and the outlawing for ever of such devices of killing as baiting, live decoys, and other unsportsmanlike methods.” That statement could apply as well to New Zealand as to U.S.A.
